Blog Notes: Yes, I’m Working On It!

September 8, 2007

I don’t write something like that during the day. Too many distractions. During the day I grab all the supporting material I need. I do the words in the evening and night.

I plan to bust it loose on Monday.

It’s bound to create a whole new group of enemies for me.

Tough. I’m not part of your filthy tech world. You can’t hurt me.

But I can hurt you.

In the meantime, the dispossessed might want to look at the Asus Eee (that’s probably the sound Hawkins made when Colligan cut his throat):

Wow.

I mean, I didn’t even have to make this up. It’s a satire on its own.

Did Zucker write it?!!?

That’s one scary mind…

You Say You Want a Revolution?

Not so long ago burning one library to the ground would rob the world of centuries worth of literature and information, and battles were fought to protect (or destroy) data that we now hastily click past to get to Fox News or obese midget porn.


Uh, Yeah.

This Is The Kind Of Shit Being Sensssssitive Produces

September 8, 2007

Reading a report about that bastard bin Laden’s latest videotape, I come across a mention of Adam Gadahn and go to wikipedia to see if there’s an entry. There is.

I’m reading and I come to this bit:

Around the same time, he also appeared in the popular Al-Qaeda-produced documentary film “Knowledge is for Acting Upon”, a film which traces the organization from its genesis among the anti-Soviet Mujahaddin in Afghanistan through its establishment of training camps around the world to its defining moment, the September 11, 2001 raids on New York and Washington.

What? The? Fuck?

Raids?! RAIDS?!!?

There were attacks, goddammit! What is this “raids” bullshit?

When you go to wikipedia’s entry on September 11, 2001, they get it right: September 11, 2001 attacks.

Not a raid, you wikitards!

This popped up for the first time in my WordPress Dashboard as a search result that led here:

Is there a meme in the air or do some people know something?
