• Commented on Steampunk Segway: the Legway
  If it were REALLY steampunk, wouldn't it be steam-powered, hm? Kidding aside, this is awesome. I'd love to try it out, but I am betting I'd probably have a hard time keeping my balance....
• Commented on Furry convention photos
  Furries and sexuality, ah... that old chestnut. Being a furry myself, going to a fair number of cons here in the US and knowing a fair number of furs in the past two years I've been active in the fandom,...
• Commented on Brain implant results in non-stop self-stimulation
  There are definitely worse ways to die than orgasming to death. Seriously. You could get hit by a bus or something. Might as well die happy, huh? Just a thought....
• Commented on BBtv: "Animals," animated music video for Minilogue by Kristofer Ström
  This was kind of an awesome video to watch drunk, I must say. I dig Minilogue, and they have good taste in video producers....
• Commented on Art film of zits being popped
  This was gross... but sadly I must say that I highly enjoy the art of expelling the contents of zits. For some reason, my sister does as well - she even begs her boyfriend to let her pop his zits,...
• Commented on How a neuroanatomist studied her own stroke as it happened
  Wow. That literally had me in tears... 'intense' indeed....
• Commented on Goobees: animated candy action-horror short.
  But this ad was very... awesome? I am pretty sure that they used sound effects from Half Life in there somewhere. Could be wrong though....
• Commented on Web zen: paper zen
  OH. Nevermind... it's on Paper Zen 2005. Silly me!...
• Commented on Web zen: paper zen
  Oh for crying out loud, they missed Origami Boulder!...
• Commented on Guy in polar bear suit arrested during Greenpeace protest
  I'm curious as to whether it's just an open-minded activist or an actual furry :) My first thought was: "DON'T GET THE FURSUIT WET!!!!"...
• Commented on TSA apologizes to "blogesphere" for arbitrary gadget screenings
  #1: It's too bad this isn't Slashdot where you can mod up posts. +5 Funny...
• Commented on Some Flickr users wary of a MSFT takeover
  I've come to the conclusion that most companies that reach a certain size are all about as bad as each other. I think we've just yet to see Google's true colors (besides the primary ones on their homepage). (In reference...
• Commented on HOWTO make an animatronic lion mask with superpowers
  "Regardless- totally agreed, the artsy/ techy appeal here resounds far beyond the utility the post has to those interested specifically in an alternative lifestyle involving cosplay. As such- it's perfect Boing! Boing! material." You got me thinking here. Typically you...
• Commented on HOWTO make an animatronic lion mask with superpowers
  Here's a few fursuit makers that I like: http://www.onefurall.com/ http://www.mixedcandy.com/ http://www.arendstudios.com/ They're not the same style, and definitely not as detailed as Lionel's heavily detailed and functional suits. But believe it or not, furries do not always want the most...
• Commented on HOWTO make an animatronic lion mask with superpowers
  This is the guy featured in the American Furry video, isn't it? He's probably one of the most detailed furry costume designers I've ever seen. Not quite my thing though, little too realistic for my tastes. :p...
• Commented on Nintendo Wii hacked -- homebrew games ahoy!
  Awesome - homebrew is one of my favorite things to do with a console. There's a couple of drawbacks: - Since you're doing things with your console that it wasn't designed to do (for example, with the PSP, you might...
• Commented on Flowchart: HOWTO determine internet truth.
  The Cake is on The Internet, but it's still A Lie. What gives?...
• Commented on 8-bit retro game sound synthesizer
  Thespreads is right. VST is almost universal in the software sequencer world (at least for Windows, anyway). The only major music sequencer for Windows that I know of that DOESN'T support it is Reason, for a reason I cannot fathom...
• Commented on American Furry: Life, Liberty, and the Fursuit of Happiness.
  PS: Xeni definitely has friends in the fandom (I'm pretty sure) :)...
• Commented on American Furry: Life, Liberty, and the Fursuit of Happiness.
  @B88 I am sorry that you (or other geeks, as I was unable to determine if you count yourself within their ranks) require other people (i.e. furries, klingons, whatever) to look down upon to feel good about your/themselves. Furries, in...
• Commented on American Furry: Life, Liberty, and the Fursuit of Happiness.
  Wow. This is pretty awesome. Though I haven't yet watched it, will do so at first opportunity. Honestly we all (*cough* the furries, that is) think that SOMEONE here at BB is a furry. Prolly Xeni. (Yeah, we know you've...
• Commented on Radiohead downloads were just a tactic to boost CD sales?
  Okay, I can see both sides of this issue here. I, like many, at first was very upset about this post. Then I started to see both sides a little bit. Of course, I think complaining about something that's technically...
• Commented on Free poster with a dozen famous conservatives
  http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1411/1479424464_18dab312c3_o.jpg A very quick hackjob as a response to Dave X / #3. I'm at a public PC at my college, trying to study, so I hadn't much time to make it look better. ;)...
• Commented on Free poster with a dozen famous conservatives
  Oh boy. Do they sell bundles with dart sets, too? Every day I'm furthur amazed how people can associate with (and/or tolerate) the conservative movement in the US and keep a straight face. *sigh*...
• Commented on New iPods reengineered to block synching with Linux
  I'm not suprised. Apple's a pretty terrible company if you ask me. They grab anyone and everyone by the balls if they can do it. Media industry, consumers, etc. That's all just business, of course. Microsoft and the other guys...
• Commented on Mario level that plays itself
  But holy crap, it's definately genius. I can't imagine how long it took to put that together. Crazy insane....
• Commented on New iPod Nano confirmed to be neither chocolate nor butter
  Anon #5: "Oh, bonus round: I also asked the Apple folks if they planned on releasing an SDK for iPhone any time soon, given that so many developers were working so feverishly on installable apps. No plans to do so...
• Commented on Grooveshark -- DRM-free P2P music -- pays uploaders
  If I was furthur in my IT degree, already had my label set up, and lived in Florida, I'd absolutely love to work for you guys, but sadly that all might be a little ways a way. Quite honestly this...
• Commented on Insect Vacuum for Squishless Pest Removal
  That bug picture reminds me of the Butt-biting bug thing that was posted on the main blog about a week ago. XD...
• Commented on New iPod Nano confirmed to be neither chocolate nor butter
  It's too bad Apple doesn't give a shit about being able to run user-created apps on the iPhone. It's the things like lack of Flash, inability to write apps (unlike Palm/Win Mobile devices), etc. that pretty much, considering that I...
