A SHIT OBIT
You know when someone we like dies, say Vonnegut as an example, and we point out how the right wing blogs go to town calling the recently deceased all kinds of names and insulting their memory?
The Tony Snow thread is an example of when we do the same thing, only in reverse.
Or something.

MetaFilter: It is what it is
I would have to agree and say the discourse is what attracts me. I don't comment often in depth, but I enjoy discovering the variety of different viewpoints that come up here. We discussed this briefly at the last Amsterdam meetup and We all sort of agreed that the discourse was what metafilter offered that most sites don't. I think we also discussed if it is the $5 signup fee that partially allows this discourse to flourish as opposed to the discussions denegrate into a shitfest similar to... [more]

Another open letter.
This is a very positive step for you, Krautland. We may be on the verge of a breakthrough here.
Let it out.
We're here for you.

Music Talk and Charts and Challenges, Oh My!
Ahh. There be updates to Music. Might this explain why I couldn't upload a file about 10 hours ago? It kept loading and loading and loading and....
I just said fuck it and went to bed. I'll try later today.

Different venue for dinner may be the best option. That way we'll have some time to converse. If we get together afterwards while the crowds are getting loud and rowdy, we won't be able to hear ourselves talk.

Exact Phrase Search
Don't you know? Google has a patent on that and #1 doesn't want to pay the crazy exorbitant licensing fees.
I could be wrong, but I think that exact phrase queries put a bit more strain on the server than just plain simple ones. I manage a website that has this problem as well.
Or it's a ColdFusion thing.
Or a lazy programmer thing.
or both.

Please, for the love of all that's holy
Can't pb or matthowie just set up his user account so that whenever he posts, a little picture of a troll or perhaps simply the words "Super-Dick" appears next to his name?
Kind of like that one user who had a star next to his name for a while?
Please

Twitter on profiles isn't updating
Well since it's an open thread, I'm just gonna throw this out there...
I think Twitter is dumb.
Unless you get arrested by the Egyptian police. Then it comes in handy.

Production values aren't that high in Utah, are they?
I though the set in the background was going to fall down halfway through the interview. That interviewer seems to pride himself on being a dumbass.

Whenever I come back from America, I bring Oreos and Reese's Peanut Butter Cups. Those are a big hit at the office. Also if I can score some girl scout cookies while in America, that is even better.

To Post or Not to Post
I say write up the post, check all your links and finalize it. Then give it to hermitosis and have him post it before going to the big log-out in the sky. But hurry up. He's at 207 favorites now, and the East coast is just starting to wake up.
Or post it yourself. The worst that could happen is that you're out 5 bucks.

Wow. We really aren't grown up yet, are we?
Charles Manson
Fred Phelps and family
Michael Jackson
I would venture to say that these people are definitely nutjobs and can be freely made made fun of.
However, since Manson is probably actually clinically insane, someone may object due to discrimination against the mentally ill.
You never know with the bunch of fucking nutjobs on this site.
