The Virtuous Life
Obligatory "I'm doing pretty damn well at chastity" moaning/sympathy-seeking comment.

"Gravity pretty much is irrelevant"
We can watch a dude do something cool while he's in space
This is what irks me. These lucky few that get to go into orbit, that should be prize enough, that should be more than sufficient fun and thrill. But noooo, then they get to play with boomerangs as well. Smug bastards.
Frankly they should send them up there and then make them do accounting or something. That would even it out.

Sexy Japanese Girls Anime
The confusing thing about sexy anime/manga images is that it's a masturbatory experience in which no actual woman was involved. At all.

I think you'll find they're called 'pedalos'.

Put your headphones on
Interestingly, playing it on my laptop speakers had no effect, but with headphones I specifically heard two voices saying, 'nowhere, nowhere, nowhere..."
My experience was that when listening it to headphones, I could only hear 'nowhere', but if I listened to it via speakers I could make myself hear the other words like 'Melvin' and 'Belgrade'.
Also, I was pretty disappointed by the New Scientist's explanation of the... [more]

How I built my house for £4,000
He said he got some of the materials from a skip. Is that British for dumpster?
Yes.
In the plural, though, it's a kind of fizzy maize-based snack.

While I'll admit to being quite the fan of their Bender in a Bun, I don't think even noble Wimpy will be doing the full-on candles and waiter service for St Valentine's Day. For today, at least, White Castle has the edge.

Possibly the best Craigslist post ever
This is just a straightforward, funny single-link post, for fuck's sake. Just click on the fucking link and have a laugh. I'm tired of hearing all your oh-so-cooler-than-thou bullshit comments. Stop wasting my time with all this fucking snark.

Truck Bearing Kibble
Or, possibly, the artist has mad computer skills, and it also takes forever to do each one.
Why do people seem to think that computers make art faster?

Questioning Consciousness
Turtles all the way down, I disagree that the high-level analytical, modelling thinking that you're describing has much to do with consciousness, at a necessary level. At the learning stage, perhaps. But I think we fall into a habit of ascribing a lot of our talents to our consciousness purely because we have, at one point, been very aware in our conscious minds of the thought processes associated with those talents.
I don't need a concept of an "I", nor an... [more]

Human tetris. Of course.
At 1:09, why does the white person on the left go down two spaces after the line clears? Shouldn't they only drop down one line? Or am I remembering Tetris completely wrongly?

Coffee Bukkake Man Arrested!
But we're still okay to spit tea at random schoolgirls, as a frustration-relieving exercise for girls not getting with us in the first place, right?
It's a confusing place, this modern politically-correct society. *sigh*

it looks like they're just using it to play mp3s in the browser and for some reason not letting anyone in without it.
And why exactly would you want to get in if you're not going to be able to listen to the music?
Hi, this is multimedia! You're gonna need some plug-ins!
