  1. Weird Al is a goddam genius: http://bit.ly/13BY0c (via @codinghorror)
  2. RIP CompuServe: http://bit.ly/loHFN. How sad.
  3. There's something unseemly about politicians ostentatiously hugging their kids while the cameras are rolling.
  4. Paul Begala: "I'm a Catholic. We're taught that sex is a dirty vile disgusting act that you save for the one you truly love."
  5. @anjin_san I love that. And it's one of the nice things about twitter. More or less impossible to complexify. But easy to reveal nothing. :)
  6. @jknight If you really want to rack up the score, you'll need a volcano lair, an evil laugh, and a Pit of Rabid Chihuahuas for your enemies.
  7. Transformers franchise: worst movies ever made, or worst movies that *will ever* be made? Michael Bay: stop killing my childhood!
  8. I'm your only friend I'm not your only friend but I'm a little glowing friend but really I'm not actually your friend but I am
  9. It's mortifying when I go to a place with normal drink sizes and order a "grande". Starbucks has totally screwed up my sizing vocabulary.
  10. Rapture muppets.
  11. Mischief, thy name is Beagle.
  12. @beerandpork I prefer to call it Jabba the IDE. But yeah, I'm back, for the moment. A temporary relapse, one hopes.
  13. Eclipse: I'm hungry. Me: Well, here's 500MB. E: NOM NOM NOM. M: Ok. Can you debug this now please? E: NOM NOM. M: Oh come *on*. E: NOM.
  14. ECMAScript is a terrible name for a language. Or for anything. If Adam had named trees ECMAScripts, I'm confident God would have moved on.
  15. Another family-values sanctity-of-marriage politician cheats on his wife. Yawn. Isn't there something going on in Iran?
  16. I loathe the Transformers franchise w/all my heart, but this beautiful review almost justifies the whole wretched fiasco: http://bit.ly/f9l3
  17. Sure, "shuttlecock" sounds silly, but I doubt badminton could have done much better: we're talking about a superball in a hoop skirt here.
  18. Another infuriating iPhone app rejection. Apologists point to the SDK, but writing it down doesn't make it unridiculous. http://bit.ly/7xkvt
  19. Saw two things this weekend that rekindled my interest in newspapers: "All the President's Men", & this amazing column: http://bit.ly/GdBVG
  20. @swinneyt Neal Stephenson wrote a great article about the wild world of undersea cable. Maybe dated now, but neat stuff. http://bit.ly/TbrIR
