Oh crap, wrong thread. Should go under "2 Girls 1 Cup"

And you wonder why boingboing gets put on block lists for censorware.

;-)

What, no Tremulous ?

Rob Cockerham was all over velcro with his Eyeclops Super Magnifying Camera.

Good video, but Linux has a lot of commercial support, at least 50 per cent if these numbers are true.

Jill Sobule is somewhere laughing .

Too bad they aren't technophobes. We could send Dan.

I didn't call you a fascist asshole. I said you(the moderator) would be called one either if you moderate how you like or moderate how you like with a ginormous convoluted set of "rules." Please try to get a clue.

Whats about the statue of imitations ?

I'm glad I'm a CEO !

Be still slaves, the cavity search is for your protection! There could be glass knives up there ! We wouldn't want any dark-skinned-transsexual-paedophile-moslum-terrorists flying planes in to our dare care centers and churches !

People try to put us d-down, just because we get around.

Tainted drugs ooooohh tainted drugs...

You just gave me a great idea !

How about boingboing goes back to no comments at all ?

But how do you expect me to curb my animal instincts for meat, when you pump my animal instincts with another kind of meat ?

When you wave something in someone's face, it tends to piss them off, even if they're on your side. Please write this down Christians, gun owners, gun prohibitionists, and vegetarians.

That said, I don't think this is one of those times.

Making your argument in language guaranteed to make your hearers see red?

Readers ?

10. This list will undoubtedly get longer.

This EULA is the Stephen King book the internet. It's way too long already. Do you really think people will read this, say, more than the would the Microsoft EULA ? I doubt it very much.

Why not just do what you want? People will call you a fscst sshl either way.

It seems to me like the "don't be rude" is a bit of overkill. What do you expect? This is the internet. It's inherently dehumanizing. Well, at least more so than it is humanizing.

So Joel, can I be rude to gypsies ? ;-)

And if you're over, say, 40, look at this one instead.

Do you really think I care
what you eat or what you wear ?

I'm guessing the book drying attachment is extra ?

The distance between New Yok and San Francisco is 2563 miles. Flying back makes it 5126 miles. Does anyone ever fly 105,000 miles? I guess if you go from New York to San Francisco 20 times in a year.

Did anyone expect anything less from our dear leaders in Washington?

Took 'em long enough.

There are pedophiles that prefer just prepubescent children, while others prefer pubescent "children." The latter is not technically a pedophile, but almost always labelled as such. It's most likely illegal, the age of consent varies.

Now some "pedophiles" are attracted to adults and "children," while other sex crimes against young people are crimes of opportunity(e.g. she was alone) or substitution(e.g. I couldn't find a woman my own age)

Now-a-days the law arbitrarily dictates what is illegal. In some states it's okay to have sex at 16, others 18.

Don't dare defend a registered sex offender, you'll be labeled a pedophile.

Will someone please think of the children!?

God forbid we treat criminals like human beings. Maybe we should actually try to help them control their urges instead of shunning them or singling them out.

When we, as a matter of punishment, treat 18 year olds who have sex with their 16 year old girlfriends the same as a guy who rapes a 5 year old, we're in trouble as a society.

*sarcasm*
Oh never mind, let's tattoo them with unique numbers and gather them up in one place ! Then we can kill them all at once or even pit them against each other. Because no punishment is too harsh for those types !
*sarcasm*

TinaTwice I knew this story seemed familiar. :-D

I also bet it either shoots you or makes you breakfast.

I think it more Rube Goldberg-ian. Um, Goldberg-esque... ? Goldberg-ese... ?

And unless K.D. Lang travelled in time to the 1950s(60s?), I doubt that's a woman. Gender roles, pants, and hair are the give-aways.

I love the show, but it seems to me that Ira Glass has some strange vocal inflections. It always sound like he's going to keep talking when he finishes a sentence. When he's reading about the next story, he sounds like he's finished but then he keeps going.

If Sarah Vowell is in it I would really like to see it, but it seems there are no showing in my state.

Cinema Surround Sound? I wonder if the show and its clips were even recorded to take advantage of that ?

The simple fact is, unhealthy foods are cheaper than healthy ones. Not to mention foods with loads of fat, sugar, and salt stimulate the "reward center" of the brain.

But fedoras make all the difference. :-)

That woman was wearing red. Now BB should do a story on nerdcore. NC has a big feud with filk. I think it's an east coast/west coast thing. Either that or I just made it up.

How about we get science to investigate spiritual ministry, transcendental meditation, yoga, Qi gong, and distant healing first ?

I think an even better approach would be biofeedback, you know, the one with actual scientific instruments.

I like the idea of giving a company business if they improve their environmental impact. They get the money they want, you get the booze you want, and you also get your way without violence, protests, or negative pressure.

Although I do find a liquer store a bit unsavory. It's a free country and no one sticks a bottle in your hand and forces you to drink. I just hope you have sober drivers.

"For the life of me I cannot remember what made us think that we were wise and we'd never compromise"

I'm so sorry. I'm not a troll, and I'm mostly nice. I'm full of irreverence though. Everyone deserves the occasional poke to the eye.

I include myself in there as well. Have at it !

Oh wow. It's too funny to be real, and too bad as well.

I'm not going to repress my curiosity. That said, I won't ask a lot of stupid questions. I don't like to be treated like an asshole for my curiosity, in fact I think it's one of my redeeming features. The best response to a inappropriate question would be to explain calmly that it's rude, private, or none of his/her business. Maybe the "dumbass" would learn something about manners that way. Telling them what they want to hear only makes it worse.

#72, if you want to know something about me I can get back to you later. This isn't the place, but I'm easy to get ahold of. Just be prepared to fall asleep. Either that, or you can google me.

Whatever happened to just releasing things with no strings attached ?

I can understand a song, book,or movie, but does a test for a disease really benefit from a Creative Commons licence ?

Didn't altruistic people just give these things away for free in the past?

After reading the text, it seems the paper is what is released under Creative Commons, not the test.

How dare those poor uppity urban black youth (nggrs) inconvenience my drive home !

That's how you look, like crotchety racists.

Alas, I only read one, and it gave me the heebee geebees.

So Coraline gets my vote.

Nubian please !

Screw that. Where is the writing shop for everyone else ?

+1 for thinking different

It should be noted that the cop pulls his car in front of the sign to block it from view, as it is isn't elevated.

I doubt it's even a legal sign.

I loved this show when it was on The Learning Channel, before TLC became mostly reality show garbage.

Tootpick you say ?

Your ideas are intriguing to me and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.

Okay, but has anyone else noticed that the "microphone" looks suspiciously like a penis with testes (testis) satchel ?

"You've got to roll with the punches to get to what's real."

It must be about Lance Armstrong.

This has been around at least a year, if not more. I remembered because I saw the huge price tag.

No one that has sex in public should expect privacy. It's called public for a reason :-)

Why is it only the weird news that makes it out of Japan ?

Sounds like a case of Foreign Accent Syndrome.

I'm waiting for an episode of House where Hugh Laurie talks like an Englishman.

I tried this like five times. It kept inserting "undef" in with the words Maybe it doesn't like the shift key. Anyway, I finally got it. I couldn't help myself.
