Uh ? Techno decadent urban junk and japan all in one slow loading page !? For unforeseeable (to me) reasons I commend that

Yet I'd gladly kick web master happy ass , whose jpeg compression skills are exquisitely rated approaching 0 from left and right.

I can see the quality, I guess the host can feel the bandwidth.

(Great post hama7.)

Beautiful! hama7's links are one of my favorite things about Metafilter. Always truly unexpected and fascinating...

You see, the understanding of Japanese relies on the different intonations of "?".

I'm ignorant. I see the pictures...but what is the significance?

Not that I get it either, but it might help to browse hama7's posting history.

Horray I got my comment next to the picture of a cute cat playing with a Wacom :D !

Not that this helps explain the photos or anything... but here in Montreal, the slang for 'penis' in French is 'bite' - pronounced 'BIT'.

so, Son of a BIT kinda makes sense(?)

sunexplodes, that's excalty what i was thinking! I'm french therefore 'son of a BIT(E)' sounded quite funny at first.
