Shark Weak?
I think Brianisinyou killed the Blazing Shark. Within 12 hours of recording, she deleted her twitter, and enormously popular sex blog.
I noticed she was a little bit downtrodden during the show, but I had no idea she was about to commit e-suicide. Goddamn.

Freerunning training isn’t all push-ups, balance beams and faux-French. Sometimes we play games, and this one is fun to watch.
Two people clasp hands with index fingers outstretched, and try to stab each other. Nobody can let go until somebody wins. Correcting the angle of your wrist/arm requres the ability to flip and contort your body under fast-paced, adverse...

ben:
If you have not heard this podcast yet, you are really missing out. He has had some really great people on already: Bobcat Goldthwait, Seth MacFarlane, Leo Laporte, Doug Benson, Jimmy Kimmel. The podcast is less than a month old.
Seconded, it’s a great show. He just needs to get his non-content shit together and get a decent website, mics, and a better method of feedback than...

The word “laser” is an acronym for “light amplification by the stimulated emission of radiation”.

Young Invincibles? Give me a break.
squashed:
CNN.com has another of those “look at those crazy young people” pieces. Here’s the short version: young people feel invincible, so they don’t buy health insurance, but they’re not really invincible.
I wonder whether the producers have any idea what percentage of a young person’s income it takes to cover even a basic health insurance policy at non-group rate. I’m sure they were young...
Has anybody seen video of themselves being born?
I’m really wondering how that affected you.
Doctor: Do you have any questions for me?
bk: Yeah. I can't burp. Is that common?
Doctor: It happens. Do you ever feel pressure in your throat?
bk: Yes, but it just dissipates. I think it escapes from my ears.
Doctor: Don't be a fucking retard.

WatchThe Ballad of Chase
Chase was a dear friend of mine. This is his story.
I kicked off my Friday the 13th
…by having a rather large paycheck go flying out my car window while doing a u-turn on Hollywood blvd. I immediately pulled over and went sprinting (ouch) after it.
I normally don’t go for the myths surrounding an “unlucky day”, but I think this was a pretty solid coincidence.

My knee has been injured since the end of January, and it’s still causing me a lot of grief. I’ve had some good days, and some hope that the problem had fixed itself, but I pissed it off badly last Saturday, and five days of pain prompted me to look a bit further into it.
As an uninsured 20-something in the United States, I have no means to have a professional check me out. ...
Can we just rename the "Panic Button" on the car...
theshalom:
Alternately, the “Hey everyone in the parking lot, look at me. I’m trying to steal my own car! Button.”
…
Maybe ‘panic’ isn’t “In Case of Panic,” but rather “To Induce Panic?”
My greatest panic button experience was during a scuba outing. I was changing in the backseat of my Civic, and had my keys hidden under the rear floormat. At a very crucial point between “clothes...

Editing
…goes beyond the time I spend in Final Cut Pro. I always shut off my radio during a perfectly clean break in whatever is playing. Every photo I take gets sorted, retouched, tagged and sorted again. I spend far too much time on text messages, and every email I send gets truncated, trimmed or aborted all together, to the point that the final surviving messages are refined like table-sugar.

Twitteronia feels the pain.
As told by an Englishman
British P.A: Fuck Me, I think our friend here is a Crafty Butcher.
Sean: You are going to have to repeat that.
British P.A.: He's going to have to prove it other wise.
Sean: No. What's a crafty butcher?
British P.A: A crafty butcher is just that. He's a butcher who likes to sneak his meat in the back door.
Sean: LOL

I am hard as a rock.
Sean: What's pissing me off is that the null object isn't really doing anything
bk: Isn't that what makes it a null object?
