Do we really need a special website to subtract 6, 7.5 or 9 hours from the time you need to wake up? I mean, it’s basic math, people.

I was a big fan of this extension for a while, but have moved onto Tabs Outliner instead. It doesn’t automatically suspend tabs, but the tab management is so much better it’s worth the switch.

If you're still using it, you don't hate it. Shut the fuck up.

I follow lifehacker closely — I save all these life hack articles, buy books on life hacks, bookmark pages — and yet I waste all this time because I never implement anything — I barely read the thousands of things I have either saved, printed, bought, etc Read more

I seriously bust out laughing so hard at the Clooney joke. So much better than the Cosby joke, which Fey already did on Weekend Update all those years ago. But the Cosby joke was about the courage in presenting it in the first place, so I'm totally behind that, too. :)
