  • "High Fashion" would seem to me to be inherently conspicuous.
  • I got this email this morning:
    Adopt a bunny! The black rabbit was supposedly "male", but somebody got that wrong. The baby bunnies (did I mention they are adorable?) will be weaned by the end of February.
    (adorable pictures)

    Anyone in NYC want a baby bunny?
    Ahh, too late! Our apartment is all bunniful right now. YOU should adopt one. I will help you with them and occasionally pet-sit if you are in the Brooklyn, Manhattan, or Queens! Bunnies are great pets!
  • A file-sharing organisation has gained official recognition in Sweden as a religion, an unusual move that could have repercussions on the debate about the illegal downloading of files.

    The Church of Kopimism considers “kopyacting”, or file-sharing, to be a religious service, despite most people seeing it as little more than a digital act.

    Kopimism gained recognition as a religion just before Christmas after applying three times to the Swedish government agency Kammarkollegiet. Not only is file-sharing considered its central sacrament, the CTRL+C and CTRL+V shortcuts for copying and pasting are viewed as sacred symbols.

    While interesting, it's not difficult to construct classifiers to ignore such techniques.
    Not to mention it really doesn't do shit if there's a human looking at it.

    Which there really should be considering the technology is still in its infancy.

    Boo. Dragonite is the shit.

    The follow is an amusing breakdown (even if also a drastic oversimplification) of the US's current budget problems:

    I am one of a rare breed called a "Pokémon disliker." I have a very strong reason for that: The guy I had a crush on for ten years preferred to play that game 24/7 instead of even being polite to his visitor (yours truly) when I was at his house, therefore, my comment still perches.

    That's no reason to hate the Pogeymans! Hitler was a painter, but I still love Van Gogh!

    Much in the same way, ma'am, I must point out that Mussolini played the fiddle, and we don't hold that against you or Fiddle-like instruments.

  • Likewise, Nero.
  • Yeah, but we didn't have to be subjected to Mussolini playing it every day, or else we might hate violin music.

    It's a perfectly valid reason to hate the pokemons. But it's not gonna stop other people from liking or posting about 'em.

    Thank you for understanding me, Nuri. I don't expect anyone to dislike Pokémon or want to force anyone. I was just stating my opinion.
  • This guy's channel is just a wellspring of hilarity. Here's a sample.

  • It was pretty much coin toss if this would be my thing of the day or WTF of the day.
  • It took me a long time to realise that he has a wellie on his head.
  • I know who I'd vote for.
  • Though I am worried about his dental ideas. I for one am quite happy with gingervitus!
  • He reminds me of the guy who ran for student body president at my college as "The Pirate Captain" and had a "plank" instead of a platform.

    Guess who got elected in a record turnout? At least he got people interested in student government.
  • That is the coolest thing I have ever seen so far.
