I wasn't allowed to buy a bottle of vodka once without ID, can I tell my harrowing story on BoingBoing?

No. Just no.

Well, I read the post on their site and have no idea what this is about. They don't actually say that it's a contest, if there's a winner, if there's anything to win, what will be done with the submitted art, why anyone would even want to do this, etc. Are they just looking to get artists to do free work for them? Who knows? Pretty poorly explained whatever it is.

Well, if he "knows for a fact" that's good enough for me. I know for a fact that my carpet yodels when no one is around.

I'd imagine the colon, after drinking the water in Mexico, looks quite similar. I think there's an Ezra Pound poem in there somewhere.

Good grief. Someone actually complained about giving a kid a bucket of water to play with. Wow.

Fantastic :D

They were just sharing copies of the hats. ;)

Jeez... OK, here we go: Dear Nazi Bastards that run and profit from the ForeverWar and Oil Machine (Cheney, Bush, the rest of you, you know who you are). Has it ever occurred to you in your tiny little minds that it is not in your bloodsucking interests to kill your host? You've bankrupted America. You may feel safe with your Swiss accounts and gated communities, but even someone as utterly amoral and therefore terminally stupid as yourselves must realize that you need a society to victimize in order to sustain your habits.

Wow, even for a weblog groupie, that's an impressive collection of false correlation, spurious attribution, ad hominem mania, and improvised facts.

Boing Boing should bestow honorary tiaras or something.

I don't think there's any environment more obtuse, embarrassing and pathetic than a strip club. I actually feel sorry for the men in them. How sad is that exchange of a wrinkled $20 for a peek at the "dancer's" naughty bits. It's about as erotic as watching a senior citizen being grifted.

I think the worst tattoos are when guys get the face of a dead child on their chest/pecs. The wife's gotta love that staring at her during sex. Some people are such pity junkies.

Yeah, we all have the NYT bookmarked. The story is right on their front page. What's with the bait and switch on Boing Boing?

The Organization of African Unity ... uh huh ... I would just love to hear their explanation for not stopping it themselves.

One or the other. I've read the same people who classify our efforts in Iraq as criminal arguing that it's criminal for not doing anything in Rwanda. Takuan challenged me to make up my mind, but, that's what I wish a lot of other people would do. Personally, I think we should be involved in both. When governments/powers-that-be turn on their own people and begin to murder them, that's worth fighting. But, the majority of people in the U.S. (and most other places in the world) view our involvement in Iraq as a mistake or worse. Why would Rwanda/Sudan/Somalia/Kenya be any different? Is there a particluar criteria I'm unaware of that decides whose genocide qualifies for intervention? Are the Iraqi Kurds and Shiites particularly undeserving? I'm not seeing the agenda here (outside of petty partisan politics).

Oh, and "total destruction" ... good one.

Saddam's genocide and murder is a false pretense, but Rwandan genocide and murder is actionable. There we have it.

Oh God. Just lame.

Oh sure, couldn't be those African people killing each other who are accountable. Gotta be 'merica to blame.

So, taking action in Iraq was "criminal" and should result in impeachment hearings, but let's go pressure Bush to intervene in Rwanda. Gotcha.

I just put some Scotch tape on my nose in the shape of a piece of Scotch tape. I too am an artist!

/runs crazily down hall in search of a buyer.

Count me in as one who thinks a single identity card serving multiple purposes sounds like a good idea. I guess I'm just not as paranoid as the BB personnel seem to constantly be.

I wish BB would post the debunking as often as the bunk.

Ain't that the truth.

I can't fathom not understanding it was a promotion. That said, I still say it was all cosmetics. Let's face it, it would be free whether Radiohead said so or not.

Mmmmm, myocardial infarction just like mom used to make.

Apparently Clifford has never heard of lutefisk. That smug "brown people" thing really needs to be retired btw.

I don't know that anyone with an ass for their party logo should be critical. Just sayin'. :)

"Love Communications: you might just work for us"

As if it wouldn't be freely available without their gimmick. Mocking the idea that musicians continue to have any control over the distribution of their music I guess.

I can attest to the oppressive melancholy that arises from having pretend blood on your arm. It is just no good at all. No good.

I'd go out of my way NOT to buy from Mr./Ms. Floral Fine Print. That's pretty lame.

Funny, I just saw the couple who do that "quick change" trick on tv a few days ago (where they change clothes super fast) and the guy said they patented the effect. Wikepedia lists a few tricks and devices that have been patented including, "The Quick-change magic trick under the U.S .Patent number 6,308,334."

Proudly presenting The Hemorrhoid Aggravator.

So, basically anything with tarnished metal is "steampunk," right?
