Daily Miscellany 2008-11-13

November 13th, 2008
  • Holy effing crap! What people won’t come up with to sell. Seriously. http://tinyurl.com/5ueb7g #
  • Anyone else keep doing a double-take when they see the names “Danzig” and “Rollins” in articles about the new administration? #
  • http://twurl.nl/zfltq1 One step up (or down?) from the past 8 yrs of aggressive ignorance is the coming 4-8 of intellectual violence. #
  • Need opinions on appropriateness of posting a “Wipe off the seat after you pee all over it, you damn dirty bitches.” sign in bathroom. #
  • GRR. All the connections from our Mac to the network say they’re no longer valid. All the shortcuts say they’re bad aliases or something. #
  • Of course our IS people don’t even want to hear about it, since Macs make them break out in hives. I want to throw that thing in the street. #
  • In further news of how we like to keep it classy here, no one even sent an email to inform us that the database guy quit last week. #
  • Dear Colleague: How do you think we could have pictures of things that don’t exist yet? We’re Marketing, not magicians. #
  • Today is my Friday, and there’s only 48 minutes left of it! #
  • Mmmm, home from work, errands run, off tomorrow and new Paste magazine music sampler to download. Life is sweet. #
  • So excited for email promising Weepies tour dates. Go to link. Tour dates!=One show in L.A.. Gee, thanks for nothing. #
  • I don’t feel like writing anything today. I don’t know what I feel like doing. Sitting and starting at the wall, maybe. #

    My new favorite right wing stupidity:
    “Bush never gets sloppy when he is speaking publicly.”

    Of which Bush is that guy speaking? It’s clearly not this guy:

    “There’s an old…saying in Tennessee…I know it’s in Texas, probably in Tennessee that says Fool me once…(3 second pause)… Shame on…(4 second pause)…Shame on you….(6 second pause)…Fool me…Can’t get fooled again.” —Nashville, Tennessee, Sept. 17, 2002.
