Commented on Saving Newspapers, Part MMIX: Collude and Conspire
I'm not going to provide a Wikipedia link for every word I use, but I do want to inject this thread with some hard facts of the current media landscape. According to top Washington Post editor Robert McCartney, the Internet...
Commented on Fake NYT hits streets: Iraq War Ends
I don't know who that man was they interviewed in front of The New York Times building, but it's a shame that woman yelled Judith Miller at him. I would've been pissed off too. He's right, they have been critical...
Commented on House Industries gallery show
Remember the last time we talked about House Ind on BoingBoing and came to the general conclusion they're a bunch of arrogant jerks with skills nonetheless? I happened to be browsing their site yesterday, rereading the FAQ and recalling these...

Commented on House Industries "Studio Lettering" font collection
There is no doubt that House's fonts are impressive, with impressive price tags to match. The only thing more impressive than their products is the level of elitism they project in their FAQs. Just because they have "better taste" than...

Commented on Mazda destroys 4,703 shiny new cars worth $100 million
To build on what Mr Josh said above, surely shipments like these are insured on a certain level in case anything were to go wrong. My gut reaction was "wasteful!" too, but don't kid yourself--cars are disposable these days. Think...
Commented on Turtle synchronicity
Great little figure, but the skull motif throws me. I didn't even notice it at first glance, but it goes from "cool bizarro-land toy" to "$100 arthipster trinket" with the silver skull....
Commented on Numbered drawers
This reminds me of a friend who managed to purchase a classic wooden card catalog from an auction at a library. Since the card catalog is on the internet now, it was useless. He stores it near the kitchen and...

Commented on Re-creation of "Who's On First routine"
Gotta go with the other posters, here. Couldn't get past 30 seconds or so. I skipped ahead, and I'm sure my entire dorm heard that woman scream and whimper. Not sure what they think I'm watching......

@Arkizzle: Lol. Sorry I probably shouldn't have opened that Pandora's Box, although I doubt I'm the only one thinking that. I guess we can try and close the lid and hope nothing comes out through the crack... Anyway, I think the discussion's moved on, and most of the "regulars" are kinda fading into the background. One opinion I have is that by banning Takuan, the Boingers are laying their community down on the ground, putting a pistol to its head, and pulling the trigger. All that will remain will be the twitching of a slowly cooling corpse. Well, that's melodramatic,...

Mother of Mercy! Is this the end of Untitled 1?...
buddy66 commented on Untitled 1
"Banish plump Jack and banish all the world." I've enjoyed y'all's company the past couple of years and have had a thousand laughs. BB was a bright spot in a dark time and I am properly grateful. I rarely added to this thread, although I engaged in some spirited exchanges elsewhere, and I always checked it out as a sort of bulletin board. I will continue to check in and lurk about on occasion but have decided to otherwise end my participation in BB's community. This business with Takuan is too much for me... It's time to transfer out of...

Damn Buddy, sad to see you go. You added a fine, true tone to the noise. Hope you'll drop back when it suits. You'll be missed....
ridl commented on Untitled 1
you know there's something about it all that no one talks about, or at least I haven't spent that much time mulling over, and that is that even if we fail even if the species dies and the planet is set back hundreds of millions of generations and all the languages are lost we can't fail we can't be lost and it's just not true because our timeline is one of infinite and somewhere we make it somewhere some iteration of me and you and everyone every decision I make somewhere I make the decision that I would make if...
