Judging by the last segment I don't think he's saying he's in Istanbul when this is being filmed, just that he will be there when this is meant to be played, as it was made in advance (someone said something about a Lotus christmas party, which would make sense to me, because I certainly wasn't expecting Kimi at my…

To all the people bitching about spoilers, and all the people bitching about those bitching about spoilers, I think it's fine that Jalopnik posts the results of the race, even in the headline. What fucked me is that Gawker takes that story and posts it at the bottom of EVERY SINGLE GAWKER SITE. I avoid Jalopnik like…

I saw someone doing this before a redeye flight, they had their baby with them and kept prodding them and keeping them awake, the baby was clearly annoyed by this. I was confused because I was thinking, man these people are being jerks to that baby, it's clearly tired. But boy was I thankful when I got seated on the…

Every one of my friends is going to the race from DFW. I'll download BBC or SkySports Coverage as it comes available on my favorite racing torrent site and watch it on my big ol' flatscreen, same way I watch every race. I'm actually not bothered that I'm missing it this year.

Take a bunch of different ones you like and use a background rotator to switch them out every X minutes maybe?

I hate the word medallion. I think my aversion to flying Delta is so I don't have to hear that word over the cabin PA. Medallion. Ugh.

I meant that it's even appropriate in stories that have nothing to do with Florida, so it's super-appropriate here? Just an enthusiastic affirmation of your gif.

That's appropriate even in stories that don't involve or reference Florida.

That was totally supposed to be a scaled down version. Oops.

I found that emoji in WhatsApp a while back, a friend kept sending me that little turd, and I couldn't find a bigger version so I remade it in Illustrator so I could send it to her poster-sized. It lives on her fridge. True story.

Ah, you're thinking of a 'disher', definitely the way to go.

Yes, let's damn them for eternity because in one "interview" where questions had to be smuggled in and out (and in one case were successfully confiscated) of a Russian prison (which, while maybe not Auschwitz, are pretty fucking horrible) to women being held as political prisoners for several more years for completely…

That song is incredibly familiar but I can't remember where I've heard it. I want to say it was on one of Prof. Brian Cox's "Wonders of..." shows but I can't be sure. I thought Sheridan Tongue did all the music for those but maybe he didn't do -all- of it. What am I going on about?

Yes, because most of the cost is in the material itself, right? Not the design, machining, plating, overhead and administrative costs, etc., that stuff is all entirely free, especially when selling a highly-specialized, non-mainstream product like this. And damn them if they were hoping for any profit to grow the…

I got in the car to leave for work this morning and opened Spotify, picked a point in the playlist and started listening. Same as every morning, same interface and everything. Half way to work the music skips a couple times then stops. Not having music to calm me down will make me grouchy at other drivers so I hit…

Indeed, I use my Galaxy Tab 8.9 in the bathtub fairly often with just a ziploc bag. I suck excess air out with a straw, which makes the plastic lay flat against the screen and, if I see air starting to seep in and start to lose the vacuum, I know I've got a leak before I do any serious damage. Haven't had a leak yet,…

Seconded.

Looks like a sperm.

Nah, in an interview he said it was obviously because they had parked Senna's car 1/3rd of a car width too far to the left.

I've been sort of obsessed with listening to these tapes at work (handily available as MP3s, of course). Somehow it makes it easier to get through the day, especially when I can quote it at my SU,LM-listening coworkers. There are some god damn gems in there.
