  1. A little thing: on NYT.com, article has a Single Page link when it's multiple pages and you're on one. On Slate, all articles all the time.
  2. Long-windedness is a form of narcissism.
  3. Look, I get it. Times (New Roman) is a web-safe serif alternative to Georgia. Now can we all go back to using the good one. Please.
  4. Just watched the second half of Das Boot without noticing the first. What I watched was 4-stars, scared the whole will be overlong.
  5. It's nice that Lala lets you listen to the whole album before buying, but I actually prefer thirty second snippets when shopping.
  6. I don't want to live in a world where '2012' made $225 million worldwide in a weekend. Maybe watching was wish fulfillment those like me.
  7. It's striking that while the NYRB website has gotten uglier and harder to read, the LRB's is noticeably improved.
  8. @juliecarolyn hey nerd
  9. It may be hurting their ratings, but I respect that CNN is still aiming to be nonpartisan.
  10. @gruber Yep, throttling's a bitch. The rule of Comcast is use way less bandwidth than they sold you, or get sporadic dial-up speeds.
  11. Up is the first DVD I've ever seen with a specific rental version that lacks menus, subtitles, alternate audio tracks, and special features.
  12. Today I saw a girl so beautiful that I still feel physically ill of unworthiness, desire, and angst. Apparently, I'm 12.
  13. Using a calendar to excuse your attempt to grow facial hair means you're a weenie. THAT IS ALL.
  14. @pearsonified Humor is notoriously hard to detect online, but they're Scoville units (http://bit.ly/3G18Y6
  15. "The only job that cures cancer is the job that cures cancer. The rest of us are just paying rent." - Zach Arias via Quote Book
  16. Among the Bush bullshit, few terms grated more than "the Homeland." Just saying.
  17. Probably the coolest wallpaper ever. In action: http://is.gd/4ziV0 For use: http://is.gd/4ziT2 *swoon* (via Gizmodo)
  18. @derekpunsalan AmazonMP3 does it, and has saved me before. Though I think it's an indictment of how much we buy that we need such things.
  19. Nick Griffin looks like a slightly jowlier Sean Hannity. Coincidence? I think not.
  20. Just listened to Journey's "Don't Stop Believing" twice because some item in my GReader stream was playing it. Took ten minutes to discover.
