Numeristerical!
64035 is the zip code for Hardin, MO. Hardin is my boss' last name. I had a different boss when I got this account, though.
Also, apparently, it's a shoe.
Lame.

I'll race! To feel the wind in my face! And I'll race! To feel like I own this place!
I'm really digging Mario Kart Wii. I'll have to register my friend code in the list when I get home today.
I love the wheel, but I'm rather broad shouldered and using it for an extended period of time gives me a lot of tension right between my shoulders. I'm not sure if it's the wheel or my posture. Possibly both?

WRT the "rubber banding" - I can't help but be frustrated playing Grand Prix in 150cc, being in 1st place for ~2.8 laps, and then, all of a sudden, just before the last turn, every other racer hits you successively with items and you cross the finish line in 6th place or worse. Several times this has happened to me and I've finished last.
Playing against people, it's not as frustrating, but when it's just me vs. 11 CPU controlled characters it feels like being cheated.

Metafilter Music Collaboration #2
Amazingly intriguing. I look forward to seeing(actually, hearing) what the lot of you end up producing. I might take a shot at mixing, but I don't think I could contribute a track. I don't even know where my guitar has gotten off to these days.

I don't think "this is stupid because" really warrants being called hate. You should be nicer.

nice trick
I first noticed in AskMe that the green seemed lighter than normal, and I thought "What a lame April Fool's joke." I had to step away for a few moments, and when I came back it was nearly white. "Ahhhh, I get it."
Good one!

I feel the same compulsion to watch their videos that I feel when passing a major traffic accident and am unable to turn away. Fascinating.

MeFi Xbox Gamers
Nifty idea. I don't game online much, and as such have let my gold account expire, but if I renew I'll definitely take advantage of this.

Listen.
I expected this to end up here. Although I can understand the "don't be so hard on the asker" crowd, he did seem to already have in mind what answers were acceptable, particularly when he pretty much accused all of the "no" answers of being out of the guidelines of AskMe.

On the unbearable anonymous of being
I have no problem putting my name in my profile. No one's looking, anyway. Even if they do, my positng habits are not particularly prolific, and I try to keep myself civil and reasonable.
Also, I have no googleganger. WTF?
