How *not* to pick up chicks

Published Thu, Nov 29 2007 12:37 | William

Obviously these aren't being used in the field , at least I hope not. If they are being used in the field, I'm pretty sure their efficacy leaves something to be desired.

I know some men that pretty much refuse to buy feminine products for their significant others b/c they can't take the embarrassment. Personally, I always wondered a little about them b/c it seems you really have to feel shaky in your manhood to let...

I'm probably going to hell for even reading this, let alone posting a link to it. Atheists/Agnostics and Christians that can laugh at some of the less desirable aspects of their faith will get a good chuckle out of it. If you are of the persuasion...

Man bites dog

A few of these clips are definitely NSFW b/c of the language. In fact, more than a few are. But if you look at some of Jimmy Justice's video , you'll probably laugh your butt off. Basically, he's a citizen vigilante who goes around and photographs...

Athough it's been relatively slow in the past few months, I typically have to engage in a good bit of air travel and it seems that many developers/consultants I know are in the same boat.. TSA and similar concerns have made air travel more frustrating...

Programmers do actually make suckier interfaces than other people

Published Mon, Feb 5 2007 1:56 | William

Aaron's post asserts that programmers aren't to blame for crappy UIs and I'm not sure he's right about that point. As a programmer and software user, I have to say that most of the truly terrible user interfaces I've seen in my life were not the result...

Although I love Pimp your ride, I personally don't like bling on vehicles much. I mean, what looks dumber than a totally tricked out Geo Metro right? Well, come to think of it, it's a lot worse when the car is actually nice. Unpimp your ride
