I know I this should make me want to stop eating meat... but instead it makes me want to eat as much as I can while there's still some debate.

The program is worth continuing, yes, but there's no need to actually produce it if it's fucking broken, right? Make a few prototypes and when those work reliably then spend billions manufacturing.

If I recall correctly it has to be ingested to be effective, how is that going to repel mosquitoes?

I'll second TuneIn Radio app. If you're local affiliate offers internet streaming you can listen to your local station anywhere you have a signal. You can also set it up to record shows so you can listen to them later. Tons of great features.

But what about the players that want to beat up on queers? Acceptance and tolerance are bullying to the intolerant, which I think was Peter Wolfgang's point. Or something.

Just imagine it as a bar graph going from 2002 on the left to 2012 on the right BUT twisted clockwise from the bottom until the end of 2012 ended up at 11:59.

Yes, I'm sure the artist was referencing obscure paleontological infighting and not some simpler explanation. But that link was also very interesting so I apologize for my bitchy sarcasm.

It might be racist to imply that Mongoloid* skulls share the characteristic epicanthic folds found on their faces but in this case I think it's clear the artist is using anatomically incorrect skulls to create a likeness of famous people. As such, changing the skull so as to create a portrayal of the epicanthic fold…

If I recall correctly there are studies that prove hearing only one half of a conversation, like a phone call, is particularly distracting. But I guess it's great publicity on how his app can annoy the fuck out of people on a plane.

Finally, an excuse when someone asks if I want to hold their baby. "Get that little racist away from me!"

The venerable Adam Curtis (BBC documentarian behind Pandora's Box, The Century of the Self, The Power of Nightmares, etc.) had a bit about Ghostwatch on his blog at the BBC not too long ago. The interesting part is that Curtis, like everything else he does, extrapolates how Ghostwatch affected how people perceive…

Bringing back Keith Moon from the dead would only be slightly less impressive than the opening ceremonies in Beijing.

Are you seriously suggesting I tell my grandmother the sweater she gave me is ugly? You have two choices; either say you like it and you feel slightly bad for lying and your grandmother is happy or say you don't like it and you hurt your grandmother's feelings which in turn makes you feel worse than the white lie.

Nope. I seem to be about as smart as before. Sucks for you, though.

So what do you guys use Dropbox for? I've got 10 GB and only 220 MB used for sharing pictures.

I brush as far back as I can until I start to gag. It's a couple seconds of unpleasantness that makes sure I don't have to be self-conscious of my breath until much later in the day. I find it helps to stand with my head over the sink facing downward so I don't involuntarily swallow toothpaste when I do gag, that's…

I've been using Windows Media Center with the Media Browser add-on. I use SickBeard to download meta data and screens and it works pretty well for being fully automated.

I think it's true with almost anything, success breeds complacency and mediocrity.

I think you're reading into it a bit much and I don't think Tim & Eric think that anyone is stupid for laughing at Bridesmaids or more traditional humor. They just love the absurd, someone else called them kind of Dadaist, and I agree. I mean, I'm certain they think Jeff Dunham is stupid but Jeff Dunham is stupid.…

Is it really that surprising? Flying economy is fucking miserable, who but a complete asshole would want a job like that?
