The Mysterious ChicagoNow Comment Picture
2009-11-07 16:33:00 It's freaked me out for months now but I've been too embarrassed to admit it: Am I the only one who thinks that, in its small size, the default icon for ChicagoNow commenters (pictured left) looks strange and reptilian, like a sea snake coming out of the lake or maybe even the Loch Ness monster? Something sinister and mysterious?Up close, of course, you can tell it's a pothole with a rubber cone stuck in to warn cars away - an all too common site. There's a faded insignia on the cone -- a cute bear. Maybe it's a Bears cone? But far away, in its thumbnail size and on my dark old monitor, it's hard to tell what's going on. ...
Bulls vs Wizards comment thread
2009-10-24 02:01:00 As noted in the post below, the Bulls are short handed. Not much to be said for this game, the primary thing to watch out for is James Johnson as he should get plenty of playing time. Taj Gibson, Tyrus Thomas, and Joakim Noah will also be worth a look of course, but we've seen a lot more of them so far....

While there's quite a bit of debate about the 'nofollow' attribut, and whether it's effective or not, I wanted to provide a small ...

So I was kidding about that Kramer vs. the Cable Guy comment in the last po
2009-09-19 08:58:00 It was an interesting/frustrating day.So I'm down at the office at 8am and left for only a few minutes to put the boat in for the charter. I'd made arrangements with the phone company to have the technician call a few minutes prior to arrival. I received no call so I'm thinking things are OK. By 4pm and no technician and I'm thinking maybe they didn't call and I missed them, so I call the phone company and the gal on the end says they have no record of an order for my phone number. She apologizes and sets it up for next week with a new case number... I'm a bit aggravated because I had to pay an extra employee for the day so I could hang out all day rather than work the charter....15 minutes later I decide it might be smart to double check on the status of the new case, just to make sure they got it right and I didn't recall her repeating my address. I get a hold of a nice gentleman and he looks up the filing for my phone number and says, we have you down for Tuesday morni...
Styling CommentLuv for WordPress
2009-09-09 08:00:00 CommentLuv is a must have WordPress plugin. It’s a nice way of rewarding your blog readers who leave a comment on your blog because it displays a prominent link back to their last blog post. Cool, isn’t it? But I don’t like the way it displays my commenters’ last blog post. Maybe it would be great

An answer to Baron about his comment on my last post
2009-08-13 05:21:00 To make it easy for you, and to start off, here is Baron's comment:Hi Pete... Congrats man...The chip off the old block is doing A OK...To be very honest with you...I for one do, not like European technology,...simply because of the fact they think ...if it's not complicated...it cannot be good and that scares meI think Europe has a lot of potential but they lag behind.... pride it seemsyour son should try to qualify on Boeings.... If I have a flight on any European aircraft... honestly..and not meaning any insult...I cancel and re book.. I just do not like the airbuses...I do not think they are safe or air worthy... but that's only my opinionThere is no offence and no insult in what Baron says and it is his opinion. And everybody has the right to have his opinion.Let's face it: I never was very fond of Boeing aircraft. Though the 737 is ok and frequently used in Europe. But when I started to fly in the 1960's, there were fabulous aircrafts around. Like the magnificient DC 8 fr...

Comment and Email
2009-07-26 10:01:00 Guess what? I don’t comment back to people on my blog. I email them. Do I have some great blogging philosophical reason? Nope! I do it because with my comment system mixed with WordPress I can just hit reply in my email and it goes to the commenter. Granted, I don’t reply to every single comment. Sometimes, I simply don’t have the time. I care about each one, because that person took time to do it. But if someone seems to really have resonated with me on something, has a question or a problem to solve, or whatever, I email them back. In fact, I’ve made a lot of my online friendships that way. So please know, that when you don’t see comments from me on my blog – I’m not unresponsive to my readers. I just do it a little less publicly. I like it to be more personal. Once someone comments, I like to take it to a more personal conversation. In addition… I WILL comment publicly if I need to. Not to trolls – they simply...

Sexe, salopes et déconvenues? Ou comment éviter que les femmes ne couchent
2009-07-16 01:39:00 La femme facile est l?insulte féminine ultime Cette insulte est probablement l?une des plus répandues lorsque l?on se concentre sur la population féminine. C?est pourquoi il est inutile de disserter sur sa définition. Venons-en tout de suite aux propos qui nous intéresse : comprendre d?ou vient ce terme, quels sont les enjeux cachés pour finalement parvenir à tirer son épingle du jeu et contourner le problème. Parce que finalement les filles faciles possèdent une qualité indéniable : elles aiment le sexe et l?assument. S?il est regrettable que la plupart des femmes n?ont pas cette assurance, une chose est sûre : toutes les femmes rêvent secrètement d?une bonne partie de jambe en l?air. Et si notre société n?avait pas pris un malin plaisir à détourner les enjeux du plaisir humain, la frustration aurait probablement disparue de notre vocabulaire en deux temps trois mouvements. Mais puisque changer le monde réclame trop de temps, on peu tout de même s?attaquer à notre vie. Un seul obj...
Les femmes sont toutes des chieuses. Mais comment trouver la chieuse qui vo
2009-07-10 08:47:00 Non, cet article n?a aucune vocation polémique. Il part simplement d?un constat : les femmes sont des chieuses. Aucune ranc?ur ni ressentiment dans ce propos. Les femmes sont comme çà, elle n?y peuvent rien. Même les hommes ne viendront probablement jamais à bout de ce phénomène : chaque femme est conditionnée pour tenter de reprogrammer son partenaire masculin. Et il n?y a finalement rien de plus chiant que quelqu?un qui tente de vous manipuler pour changer votre comportement. L?humanité à quand même eu la bonne idée d?inventer un concept ultra novateur pour faire passer la pilule. C?est assez complexe mais en un mot on appelle çà l?amour. Peut être en avez-vous déjà entendu parler. En gros l?idée de base, c?est de devenir niais. Cela permet à la personne vous ayant inoculé ce virus de transformer tous ses défauts en qualités irrésistibles. Plutôt cool, non? parmi les autre effets secondaires, on peut noter la perte de volonté propre ou encore la recherche de compromis. Vous savez ...

Passed Along Without Comment
2009-06-26 03:46:00 Ahem: And now for another potential Cleveland deal to watch: For all the weird talk in Chicago last week about some kind of fictional rift between Mark DeRosa and Lou Piniella, we've been hearing that the Cubs have kicked the tires on a deal that could bring DeRosa back to Wrigleyville. For one thing, the reason the Cubs traded DeRosa in the first place had nothing to do with any "rifts." It was because they'd have had to play almost an entire right-handed-hitting lineup if they'd kept him, and because they needed to move salaries to fill other needs. But by late July, DeRosa would have only about $2 million left on his $5.5 million salary. So we're guessing the...
The President?s Telling Comment About FoxNews

I Stand Corrected: The Best Reader Comment Pointing Out How I Was Wrong:
2009-05-18 14:12:00 Although in general I am right about everything and anything I think (as are you, my readers -- remember, the TBOE slogan is Our Opinions Are Righter Than Yours) occasionally an error slips through here and there. I blame the lack of coffee.That error might be as simple as a reader thinking that the Olsen Twins aren't identical, or it might be something far more serious, like getting the biography of supervillain Chillblaine wrong.It seems I've done just that -- gotten Chillblaine's history wrong, and reader Lia Brown (who writes a very entertaining blog that you can find here) has called me on it. She writes, as a comment to my post on Supervillains who just kept coming...Dear sir, I apologize in advance for the nerdery. However, I must make a few corrections on your Top entry (for I am the world's biggest Top nerd...yes, such a thing exists). Firstly, Captain Cold never became Chillblaine, and thank god for that, because they were all having sex with his sister. They were a...
Comment Reply via Email Improvements
2009-05-15 22:55:00 Since opening up the comment reply via email feature to everyone last month we’ve been continuing to improve it. Here are some of changes that have gone in during the last few weeks: Better detection of email auto responders / vacation messages Added a reminder to the bottom of comment notification emails about the reply via email feature Vastly improved support for non-English character sets Fixed a problem that some iPhone users were seeing Improved email address parsing for Blackberry users Fixed cases where signature blocks weren’t being properly removed Better paragraph formatting when parsing comments And many little tweaks to deal with the oddities of various email clients. You’d be amazed how many email clients have their own little quirky ways of doing things. For users who don’t include quoted reply text in your emails I do want to point out that you’ll need to end your email comment reply with !END on a line by itself. We’ll detect...
Comment Search
2009-05-14 20:31:00 You guys are generating an amazing amount of feedback on your blogs. Matt mentioned in the April Wrap-Up that there were 8.6 million comments! Comments are flying in every second of the day. And have you ever had one of those blog posts that was good, but the real action was in the comments? The blog post is only half the story, it’s the feedback from everyone else that fills in the rest. To make it easier to find the second half of these stories we’ve added comment search to WordPress.com search. Select the comments options from the WordPress.com search page and we’ll hunt through the millions of comments that have been added to WordPress.com blogs to find what you are looking for. To reduce the comment inferiority complex you get many of the same features and options as post search: sorting by relevance (the default) or most recent, limit results by blog (like site:gigamom.com) and an easy way to subscribe to new matches via an RSS feed ( the Follow this sea...

The TBOE Comment Roundup.
2009-02-23 15:34:00 This week in The Best Commenters:Supercommenter/Aweso-mewriter Lisa Pepin, whose blog "Lost In Provence" should be required reading for people who (a) breathe or (b) exist, had this to say about the most recent Supervillain post:"Chillblaine," that's the perfect brand name for your business leg warmers. Though it sounds like you should add a line of mittens as well. But they'd have to be mittens you could type in. Or they'd have to be so expensively-priced that they would inspire the kind of awe and respect that would get you out of doing such mundane tasks as typing while at work. Also, thanks for posting a picture of Duckie Dale. I didn't realize how much I had missed him until I saw his face (and gold jacket and ultra-feminine lapel pin) again. Sure, Lisa, you say you missed Duckie Dale -- but you missed him as a friend, right? A really good friend, of course... but the Duckies of the world reside forever in the Friend Zone. But you are right that "Chillblaine" would be mark...

My Very First Hate Comment! Yoohoo!
2009-02-15 15:15:00 As much as I had announced that I'll be away, I found in my mailbox this gem engraved on my blog on Friday the thirteenth. And it was too good to ignore, delete or put off for another time.Immature fucking bitch. Maybe a screw from your dog will put sense into your fucked skull.Check it out in the comments on this post. Sadly I'll never know who the spout of this sublime wisdom is. The comment is anonymous.It had me cracked up. Getting screwed by dogs makes one sensible! Rotfl.I had always felt sorry about the fact that in three full years of blogging I had never encountered criticism here, constructive or otherwise. All my blogger friends and readers have always appreciated me. A lot of them have crossed over into my life and I don't consider them 'virtual friends'. No one ever said I was great but I never heard anything negative about myself. I was bored of all the sweetness and mutual admiration. I can't thank you enough, Mr/Ms Anonymous for giving me my first hate comment...

Clever Comment Spammers
2009-01-30 05:02:00 I have been slow in posting but I regularly moderate comments and delete the spams but lately it has become more and more difficult to distinguish them from legitimate comments. Following is a sample of what these scum bags have been writing and I just deleted almost 200+ comments that were left on different posts just today!   Reviewing such huge numbers of spam comments is a nightmare and it is possible to delete genuine comments accidentally but I hope I haven’t done that. Here are some of them: “great pictures, Especially for me at this winter time ,I am so in love with hot countries,Very peaceful!” “Wow! this is a really nice blog. I loved reading it. Thanks!” “Nice info you have here.. I’ll use this a lot..thanks and nice site too :D “Good Afternoon…! ” “Great Forum & Community!

Constant Comment Muffins
2008-12-14 05:15:00 Everyone has heard of the popular Bigelow tea, Constant Comment. To be perfectly honest, bad pun intended, it's not my cup of tea. In fact, if it were the only tea on earth, I simply wouldn't drink tea. My family, however, are all quite enamored with the amber brew and drink it like there's no tomorrow. There's no accounting for palates being passed on, is there? At any rate, when I was devising muffins for my most recent Family.com post (Morning Muffins) I decided to see if I could come up with a muffin that would taste like the tea my family so adores. These are those muffins.

2008-11-11 14:24:00 I have to agree with Newt as well on this. While Lieberman does have some conservative views, he is still tied to the democratic party, and that would upset many in the base. I would like to see him as Secretary of State. |
