1. Depends on the season and the sport, and even the year. This past football season looked something like:
Capping 80% and everything else 20%
and 5 years ago looked something like 50% capping and 50% everything else.
Luckily, last year I had soccer - which carried me for 12 months running.
2. This is always tricky. Outside of about 5 friends, nobody knows. So the friends outside of the very inner circle think I work from home, and I am very vague about it - they joke that I am a secret agent - and I really do nothing to tell them otherwise - so they drop it. People I meet, or say when I am asked on an application (like my sons school app), I say or put "entrepreneur" and if it goes further I just say I own a couple of businesses - people generally get the idea I dont want to talk about it and let it go. The school stops asking when they see you can write a 15K check without flinching - then you could be Hitler and they wouldnt care.

Nah - dont like to tie up money for that long. Rick Perry is too right wing IMO. I dont think he is electable, but who knows.
Personally, I hope you lose this bet.
But I do think Obama will be re-elected no problems - and the current price of about -160 is a steal. And Im not opening up the conversation to personal politics, I just dont think there is any Rep that can beat him. I dont think it will be close.

It is 1000% better than it used to be.
So it works for me.
Never had a juice only week, I like to eat too much. Tonight had a salad from my backyard, my wife has taken up a suburban garden project - and we ate organic lettuce, zuchini, tomatoes, onions, and herbs - really cant beat it.
Van- I'm assuming you play draws in soccer as the line warrants it a play. But my question is "Do your line projections also come out with 3 way betting lines?" If so, I gotta give it up to you man pretty damn impressive.
I've wondered for years the science/psychology of draw betting. Personally, I believe there is a slight overlay on draws as people cap games with instinct to one team or the other. However, Is the draw just a middle for the price between the two sides or its own seperate entitity so to speak? Like to hear your take on this.
you can go 10+ years ....
that means you have around 1 mil real cash
you should be able to get 5 solid street books and 5 people in vegas to work for you.
10 solid lines for ea bet has to enough ... no?
The issue on a 3 way line of any kind is that the house has an almost hidden way to increase house hold, or vig. It is very rare to find a 3 way line that is the equivalent of a 8 cent 2 way line, like you can get at pinnacle, or less at betfair or MB. One of my non-breakable rules is to only bet in to markets that have as low house hold as possible. That eliminates all kinds of things like horse racing, 20 cent MLB lines etc - and it is very easy for books to make a 3 way line the equivalent of a 40 cent 2 way line without most people even realizing it.
So with soccer, every bet has to be looked at individually as there are so many ways to bet the same thing. Want to bet a team +.5? You have the+.5 line, but you can also bet the draw and win in the right combinations that might make you a better price. When I had 20 books in my arsenal, I often got a win bet one place, a draw bet another, and a win bet on the other side at plus money overall. The three way line has some strange nuances - and you have to get used to them.
I do agree with you, and had a thread here about the draw several years back. I agree with the psychology of picking one side or the other, and therefore draws inherently have value. And to some extent, in certain leagues, this is true. I run the numbers every year - and if for instance in the premier league if you eliminate any home favorite over -200, and bet every other draw, I think there was about a 5% profit return in 2009, and last year was slightly even better.
I often bet draws in low scoring leagues when there is no clear favorite, just for the reason you state.
After 20 pages of this thread, and all of my other posts - you should know that Vegas does almost nothing for me. Low limits, and high house holds, with difficult logistics of getting the best line all of the time, risk of having 5 runners with cash - and expense of having 5 runners. That is not my model.
Street books are the same issue. 20 cent lines, and meeting someone in a parking lot with a brown bag of cash doesnt meet my criteria of low risk, low margin gambling.
I said it before and I will say it again, I am not a good enough crystal ball handicapper to make money with tons of operating costs and risks. The difference between having Neteller, and 20 books on 6 computer monitors in my office - and being able to react in 10 seconds to having no money at a book, to having a big balance and hitting a line - and the situation you describe is enormous. I had virtually no cost, and very little risk - your solution has high costs and high risks, with even worse betting options.
Good for some, but that is just not my model.

When you're on a roll (like your soccer run) , how do you stop yourself from taking all your plays and making a tiny parlay out of them, just as a heat check?
I went to a casino (and wrote a review here) that had 500X odds on craps. That was the last time I "gambled", or in other words - placed a wager that I KNEW had a negative EV. I hated it for the most part, and had conversations with myself about why I was doing it the whole time. But I was with friends, and it was for small money, so it was a social thing - but my OCD almost didnt let me do it.
I used to bet on anything. I could make the worst covers degenerate look like an altar boy. I wrote in this thread about how I met a nameless faceless guy with a shaving kit packed with 100 dollar bills - and that was because of a terrible run on stupid garbage like quarter bets in football, parlays, props etc. I also wrote in this thread that I figured out the scoring system for dancing with the stars in season 1, and figured out mathematically with a very high certainty who was going to win, and won a couple of G's on that - I felt very good about that.
I stick with what I know. I dont know parlays, and I know that if I stick with my thin slice view of the gambling world - I make money. I dont want to expand that, because there is a learning curve and risk. I want to repeat what works over and over, and for me a parlay just isnt part of that - and I am very lucky in that I do not have urges to bet for entertainment - I have the opposite - my preference is usually NOT to have a bet if I dont really like a side. Sure sometimes I get bored and put a fun bet out there - but for real money - almost never. I spoke earlier how I got loose on the WC final, because I was so red hot, and I swear to you I have thought about why I bet too much on that game EVERY day since. That was in July of last year. And it has nothing to do with the money, or losing my rent, or losing period - it has to do with the fact that I know for a fact that I bet too much because of emotion - and that bothers the garbage out of me.
i'll give you that ... gambling for an income is pretty hard ... nevermind the overhead of runners etc ... didn't read the 20+ pages just skimmed ... just surprised you don't have a few locals with a very extended line of credit at this point. bol
Just for conversation - let me give you an example....
These guys like Billy Walters or others like him will say something like "bet the Eagles all the way up to -3" when the line is -2.
To me, the difference between -2 -105, and -2 -110 is enormous, and might be the deciding factor in me not betting that game. For him and those like him, they essentially LOVE a side in a game, and are price insensitive. I am the definition of price sensitive.
So maybe Billy Walters is a great crystal ball handicapper and can do that. But I am not. And I am the guy betting the Giants +3 after he moves the line, because I feel like I am getting 10 cents too much.
There is an enormous difference in those two approaches. I am shopping at the dollar store with coupons, and he is shopping at brooks brothers. I make my money by making ten bucks on a bunch of transactions, where he and others make theirs by making 10K on one transaction. So where a vegas setup, or street books, or credit situations might suit him - they dont me. Price and risk sensitivity is the key.
I understand what you are saying, but wouldnt having a few guys on the payroll to scour the vegas book work for you? It would be the closet thing to the online betting you knew 5-10 years ago. I know it comes with a whole nother set of headaches and it would be difficult to sell out of a game in time etc
I am a socialist. I realize that is not popular to say, but it is the truth.
Capitalism, as you state, is unsustainable IMO longterm. The rich get richer, poor get poorer, until the balance gets too wide - and it gets reset usually through violence of the masses. I do not believe that individuals will take it upon themselves to keep things equal, I do believe that it takes a govt to do that. I believe in higher taxes, better education, free and equal healthcare for all, and equal playing fields for things like jobs. Is it surprising that the happiest people year after year are in the scandinavian countries - where you have 50%+ taxes but everyone values life? Not to me.
I am not a sports fan. I dont have favorite teams. I cant understand (really literally cant understand) how people pay money to support their favorite team. The only way I understand it is if it is for family bonding once in a while like a father and son - but a season ticket to the Knicks that cost 40 grand? Huh? I dont get who buys the jackets and jerseys, I just dont get it all. I realize that it is supply and demand, so I understand why athletes get paid what they do, but I cannot comprehend the guy who makes 50K a year who has season tickets to the Cowboys and then calls them "we" when referring to anything about them. There is no we in sports. We didnt win the super bowl. Anyone with a paycheck that says green bay packers won the super bowl, "we" didnt.

These tires were wrapped in fabric and put across a road by in Beirut , Lebanon by Bokja Design July 3 2012 as a protest against tire burning .
3 Great Things About This
1.Tires are being burned frequently in Beirut as protest against power outages , illegal shootings and police actions. The burning tires are exceptionally toxic and create heavy clouds of dark harsh smelling smoke . These tires were wrapped in beautiful vintage fabrics and placed across a road in Saifi Village as a beautiful and clear protest against the destruction of Lebanon's air. The tires were later taken to the airport and stacked in the entrance . This protest has received tremendous support from people in Lebanon .
2. Two people stood next to the tires holding a sign saying " We are Tyred ."
3. Bokja design was started by 2 Lebanese woman – Hoda Baroudi and Maria Hibri . Their wonderful design collection is made from salvaged furniture that they cover with a huge array of precious patterned fabrics . The tires look like their furniture .
Creative Secret ; Making beautiful art as a form of protest instead of using anger and destruction.
Art transforming an ordinary banal object into something magical , historical and dreamlike .
Making art in terrible circumstances gives the artist true power.
Aesthetics ; If these tires had been wrapped in these fantastic fabric just to make a sculpture it would have been a beautiful object . The round shapes are centering and the contrast of fine fabric and hard rubber is tactile , pleasing and disturbing . Seeing them outside stacked is transfixing , nervewracking and thrilling .

Author Ann Patchett on the E-Reader Phenomenon
Sure, I signed a couple of iPad covers, Kindle covers. I've got no problem with that. But just because some people like their e-readers doesn't mean we should sweep all the remaining paperbacks in a pile and strike a match. Maybe bookstores are no longer 30,000 square feet, but they are selling books.

In a statement that's sure to elicit sighs of disappointment from many iPhone users, Google's Eric Schmidt has told reporters that the company has not submitted a standalone Google Maps app to Apple for approval, despite rumors to the contrary.
Google Maps was removed from Apple's iOS 6 software along with the standard YouTube app, which Google has already replaced with one of its own, prompting hopes it would do the same with Maps. Apple Maps has come under fire since release for, amongst other things, errors, bugs, a lack of detail and no public transportation information.
Various sources indicated an iOS version of Google Maps was on its way, with The Guardian saying "a Google Maps app is being prepared for iOS 6, which will appear in time," to Google themselves telling SearchEngineLand.com that its goal was to "make Google Maps available to everyone who wants to use it, regardless of device, browser or operating system."
Schmidt was questioned over the situation during an event in Japan, where he was busy promoting the local launch of the Nexus 7 tablet, and replied "we haven't done anything yet" when asked whether Apple was likely to accept a Google Maps app into the App Store.
He added "We think it would have been better if they had kept ours. But what do I know?" Later, as he demonstrated Google Maps on the Nexus 7, he quipped "take that Apple" while showing off the app's capabilities. It appears The Guardian was right when it said Google was enjoying Apple's suffering at the hands of the press and the public.
Naturally, Apple is defending its new Maps software, saying it's "just getting started," and welcomes all feedback in an effort to implement improvements as quickly as possible.
Without an official Google Maps app on the horizon, iPhone owners can access it using Safari, or try one of these alternative apps.

Now that OnLive is live, details have emerged on Eurogamer.net outlining how much games will cost on the service, in addition to OnLive fees (which are not being charged yet). They show Brain Challenge for $4.99, F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin for $19.99, Just Cause 2 for $49.99, and Tom Clancy's Splinter Cell: Conviction for $59.99. Those are all pretty much in line for the prices for those games at retail, except in this case you will need to maintain your OnLive subscription to keep playing these games, and even then, access to these titles is only certain for the next three years, as they all carry a "rental duration" which reads: "Until at least 17th June 2013."

Hampshire Constabulary and Viglen: IT's a Force to be Reckoned with.
Hampshire Constabulary on the English south coast seeks to build safe places to live through what it calls intelligence-led policing. Twelve divisions across Hampshire and the Isle of Wight can call on the resources of fifty police stations, 3700 officers and a dedicated marine unit divided into 3 water-based beats.
Growing Threat Forges Partnerships
Across the UK, both police and military are responding with ever-greater muscle to the growing threat of high-tech crime — in which computers are either the targets or tools of criminal activity — which has now spread its reach into many traditional aspects of investigative police work. With over fifty High-Tech Crime Units now operational in Constabularies and the armed services country-wide, the need to forge proactive partnerships with leading IT suppliers has become critically important in ensuring that forces have a constantly upgradeable stream of leading edge tools to stay a step ahead of the criminal.
Towards a Centre of Excellence
Hampshire Constabulary's HTCU was officially established as a centre of excellence in 1998, and now employs an experienced team of seven full-time staff, five of whom are detectives. Its role, explains Forensic Computer Analyst Ian Sansome is to work with investigative teams across the force, treating data as evidence to provide what he calls a truly forensic examination of computer and digital evidence... presenting that data in a readable format to a court of law.
Rigorous Specification, Robust Solution
The solution initially put in place by Viglen in spring 2002 has since been enhanced, and is now a wholly bespoke, pro-specification network boasting the kind of specialist, custom-built technology that is not readily accessible in the wider market.
Potent Server and Storage Capacity
As well as the Genie dual-processor workstations which offer high-end professional spec processing power, Viglen's complete solution for Hampshire Constabulary has also embraced powerful server technology. Providing server capacity to the network in its initial configuration was the Viglen XX210, one of Viglen's potent mid-range servers powered by dual-Xeon processors and including 1 terabyte of external RAID storage, designed for departmental or enterprise use.
Complete Service Package
Although it is able to draw on the skills of its own in-house IT Services team, the HTCU unit at Hampshire Constabulary is also backed by an ongoing Viglen maintenance agreement, which provides Viglen engineer support on-site on a next working day basis and provides valuable peace-of-mind.
Optimal Performance in a Demanding Environment
Commenting on its evolving relationship with Hampshire Constabulary, Viglen Chief Executive Bordan Tkachuk adds0 Our work with the police force in Hampshire is truly leading edge and perfectly highlights the total solution-based service that Viglen is able to offer public services seeking best value.
A Modular Future
Viglen's bespoke solution for the HTCU is modular in its approach to afford significant scalability over time — it offers technological evolution and hand-in-hand support to expand in tandem with the growth of the unit, obviating the need to go back to the drawing board on a regular basis.

In the April 21 edition of the Butler Eagle, I read that Charles Curry, Slippery Rock University's longtime vice president for finance and administration, will be resigning, effective May 3.
As an SRU faculty member in English and one who has interacted with him in the past, I can say that he will be sorely missed; he is a fine individual.
Curry also had a very important distinction to his credit: He was SRU's highest-ranked administrator of color and, as such, I hope that the dynamic new president of the university, Cheryl J. Norton, will hire someone of such caliber as Curry.
In short, Curry has been an administrative workhorse who quietly did his due diligence without complaints or flinching. And, when he became SRU's interim president last year, he reached the pinnacle of his career, serving with integrity and honor.
Curry's shoes will be hard to fill.

Red Sox - 000 110 000 000 3 - 5 11 0With one out in the 13th, the Red Sox offense came alive.
Phillies - 010 000 001 000 0 - 2 5 0
Boston had not had a hit since the eighth when Jason Bay singled to left-center off Kyle Kendrick. Pinch-hitter Julio Lugo lined a 1-0 pitch (a fastball low in the zone) to left for a hit. Jason Varitek walked on five pitches to load the bases. There was a meeting at the mound, but there would be no relief help. This was Kendrick's responsibility.
With the infield in, Jacoby Ellsbury singled to right and Bay scored. Green, down 0-2 after talking a monstrous cut, hit a sacrifice fly to left that scored Lugo. And Mike Lowell lined a single to center to score Tek.
Daniel Bard came on for the bottom half. He walked Chase Utley on four pitches. Utley took second on DI on the first pitch to Jayson Werth. Bard went up and in with a 98 fastball, then low and away at 99 for a called strike. On 1-2, Bard dropped a 85 curveball and Werth had absolutely no chance, swinging and missing for the first out.
Bard got a called strike on Ryan Howard (who had tied the game in the ninth with a solo bomb off Ramon Ramirez) on a fastball, then got him flailing at two curves for another whiff. Bard hit Raul Ibanez to bring the potential tying run to the plate. Shane Victorino slashed an opposite field line drive down the left field line that was only a few feet foul. After another foul ball, he tried to check his swing on a low slider, but could not, falling to one knee, and getting rung up.
(There was a serious heart attack moment in the bottom of the 11th when it looked like pinch-hitter Greg Dobbs had hit a two out, three-run dong off Justin Masterson. But it apparently sailed over the right field pole as a foul ball -- I could not see it via MLBTV on my computer screen -- and the Big Donkey regrouped and quickly got a strikeout.)
Lester (7-2-1-2-11, 111) was absolutely superb, striking out the side in both the fourth and fifth innings and becoming the first left-handed pitcher in Red Sox history to record 10+ strikeouts in three consecutive starts.
The only two hits he allowed were Ibanez's single and Victorino's double to open the second inning. After that, he set down 14 in a row and 18 of his last 19 batters.
Solo home runs accounted for the two early Boston runs: Youkilis in the fourth and Drew in the fifth.
Jon Lester (5.09, 93 ERA+) / Joe Blanton (5.46, 79 ERA+)
Fifteen games of interleague play begin tonight against the defending World Series champs. After three games in Philadelphia, the Red Sox go back to Fenway to face the Marlins and Atlanta, then visit the Nationals and Atlanta. Each series is three games.

Comic 887: Here Is A List Of Non-Jokes
49 comments:
"but Ann Apolis you gorgeous fucker there is a punchline"ReplyDelete
no. there is a zero wing reference
If you're going to have a wall of text, it better be worth reading. Subnormality does this exquisitely, each and every time. XKCD. . . not so much at all.ReplyDelete
- RochambeauApril 19, 2011 at 5:52 PM
The post criticizing the comic was itself a comic.ReplyDelete
If only someone had the guts to make a comment about the post about the comic that was also a comic...
It would be awesome.
A member of and a member of walk into a bar, and the barman says "fuck, not another meta joke!"
It's been told in the previous thread, but i really like that joke.
subnormality's walls of text are damn near impossible to read and could usually be told in about 1/20th the number of wordsReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 19, 2011 at 6:09 PM
If Ann Apolis is a doctor, I'm glad I don't live in the UK. If I asked for some cosmetic surgery Ann might decide that I can't be trusted with my own sense of aesthetics and cut me up "the right way" while I'm under.ReplyDelete
You'd be lucky to leave without a sex change to be frankReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 19, 2011 at 6:18 PM
I don't want to be Frank. Frank is an asshole.ReplyDelete
No, wait, that's kinda true actually.
- AnonymousApril 19, 2011 at 6:58 PM
Subnormality pretends they can get away with it by trying to pass off their bad writing as ironic self-aware bad writing.ReplyDelete
It doesn't work.
Holy balls @ Subnormality. All that build up for a "I can change my hair in an instant" non-joke. I feel like I've just been xkcded.ReplyDelete
Oh, and the author doesn't like interviews and feels like all the jobs he's qualified for suck. Boo freaking hoo.
Prediction for the next comic:ReplyDelete
An encyclopedia of all possible 'jokes' randall can come up with, over 50 billion characters long. None of them are funny.
- AnonymousApril 19, 2011 at 7:39 PM
This was the awesomest post ever posted in the Rob Era of xkcdsucks. Maybe in the whole history if xkcd sucks at all.ReplyDelete
Which is the polar opposite of the relation between 887 and xkcd. It was really, really horrible.
...And now I've been reading through the Subnormality archives (only made it through about five of them since my last post, ha ha), and it can be pretty interesting. As they say, it's not the destination that's important, but the journey. A punchline matters less when the comic itself is just interesting to read.ReplyDelete
More on this as it develops. =P
Hey, someone liked my joke. I'm so proud.ReplyDelete
Captcha: sogoss. Mm. The 1967 Chevy Sogo SS. Classic.
- AnonymousApril 19, 2011 at 8:34 PM
I got a tablet and so in lieu of text replies, and because Ann has made me self-conscious, all cued replies will be given in crude drawing form, making them 100% more awesome.ReplyDelete
K said: If you're going to have a wall of text, it better be worth reading. Subnormality does this exquisitely, each and every time
To which I reply, because I am an attention whore.
Captcha: Stabl. Not me. =\

Why does a rant about Dinosaur Comics feature as a post at XKCD Sucks?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 19, 2011 at 9:13 PM
@Anon909: Carl fancied himself a "well-rounded" individual before he started/abandoned his all-purpose site, and so reviewed webcomics/books on this site in order to be a "reviewer" and get free copies reserved for "reviewers".ReplyDelete
At least, that's how the story goes.

Ah, Ann Apolois is really Carl. I knew he couldn't keep away.ReplyDelete
Alt Text: 'If you've never had sex, this is what it feels like...'ReplyDelete
Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you the GOOMHR singularity.

Does that alt text strike anybody else as a "bags of sand" comment?ReplyDelete
- UndercoverCuddlefishApril 20, 2011 at 1:14 AM
no i believe that randall has had very bad and unfulfilling sexReplyDelete
with an underage girl
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 1:27 AM
And his sexuality has been driven by pathology rather than desire ever since.ReplyDelete
Check it out, some loser on the xkcd forum has done a re-hash of 882 with MEMES instead of jelly bean colors:ReplyDelete
Seriously, all I can say is: why? And now he's done it with OPERATING SYSTEMS. Kill me now.

Best comment from the xkcd forum about 888:ReplyDelete
"Ummm... no, sorry. If sex is like tetris for you in any way, your life needs some work."
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 2:39 AM
Prediction of #888 review:ReplyDelete
"Randall takes a break from milk fantasies and stalking Megan blah blah unless it's because he thinks she plays Tetris and desperately wants to get her attention."
"Obviously Randall wants to pander to Tetris fans, but he's never even played the game himself, because otherwise he'd know pieces in that shape don't exist in the real game. Oh Randall, you clueless fuck."
Etc. QEDBBQ. Your work here is done.
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 3:02 AM
Ah, I feel so... relieved. No more Xkcd. This is my last one folks. I encourage you all to pick your own milestone comic and leave as fast as you can. #900 is coming up real soon, or #1000 for you sadists. All that's required to make this complete is the corresponding review.ReplyDelete
Thank you all so much for giving me the support to go on hating something loved by many. I couldn't have done it without you.
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 4:00 AM
Not a problem, faceless anonymous poster. Happy to help.ReplyDelete
I'm partyin' til it's #1999.ReplyDelete
the subnormality font is probably the worst he could have chosen. it's plain ugly and even worse in a wall of text. and the site designReplyDelete
i'm pretty sure the author is trolling with his respone to criticism. basically if you don't like his mostly pointless and excessive use of words, you're either a baby or an illiterate who must also not like books.
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 5:52 AM
Ann Apolis said: "You'd be lucky to leave without a sex change to be frank"ReplyDelete
X-cellent double-non-use of punctuation. How non-punctual of you.
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 6:17 AM
Guys I'm playing Tetris right now and I've got a raging hard on - much more and I'm gonna blow.ReplyDelete
No more virginity for me!
Guys! I just thought of something!ReplyDelete
TETRIS. Its a game that we play and the shapes that drop are almost never the shapes I need.
Buy my t-shirts pl0x. kthxbye.
ian do you hate the zigzag blocks too?!
Subnormality does indeed have some truly staggeringly unfunny moments. Carl covered this at webcomics.me, stating that people like it because they agree with its sentiments, not because it's funny.ReplyDelete
To be honest, though? Forget the Zero Wing reference. I find the rest of this graph interesting.
Also: Subnormality is hand-lettered.ReplyDelete

Samantha, are you available?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 8:31 AM
I thought it was interesting, but in a picto-blog sort of way. Definitely not comic material.ReplyDelete

the joke is that randall had sexReplyDelete
@Eff GregReplyDelete
Your fling with Raven is over already?
"Also: Subnormality is hand-lettered."ReplyDelete
my bad
- Eff GregApril 20, 2011 at 11:39 AM
Can't keep a playa down, brah. I see hotness, I move. It's science.
The only real difference between subnormality and xkcd is that randall munroe writes enormous walls of text full of nerd references so his fans will suck him off, and winston rowntree writes enormous walls of text full of pretentious declarations so he can suck himself off.ReplyDelete
Latest alt-text:ReplyDelete
"Guiz, I totally never had sex, but that actually makes me AWESOME because sex is bad and totally not worth it. I know it because I never did it. If you never had sex you're cool too."
oh, and comic 888: Randall was flipping through his archives while masturbating (normal tuesday night, natch) and stumbled across the actually mildly amusing comic called "hell" where the tetris game bottom was curved so you couldn't stack anything. And he figured if that one fetched plenty of recognition chuckles, surely a complementary "heaven" one would as well!ReplyDelete
Hey, at least it ain't poster bait (which is what we usually get whenever he goes flipping through his archives for 'inspiration')
Hell was shit Ves, mainly due to the way it showed how badly Randall's in need of an editor. Way to reveal the punchline before the joke,Randall more like Retard)ReplyDelete
- AnonymousApril 20, 2011 at 6:22 PM
That's what I love about 888. He fucked up the punchline delivery IN THE SAME EXACT WAY.ReplyDelete
xkcd forumites consider 724 'hell' to be a 'classic' that 'brings back memories' , kill me, kill me nowReplyDelete
'Part of me wants to believe that Randall came up with this and the Hell comic at the same time, but held off on the Heaven comic until comic #888 due to the 'lucky' properties of the number 8 in Chinese culture...'(
sure thing brah

Ah, memories. Back in my youth when the most recent xkcd comic was "Hell." Those were the days.ReplyDelete

Mojo, please show me the posts where i idolize any politician.
I have been screaming at the top of my lungs about how both parties are bought and paid for flunkies.
So really stop the lies. Its the right wingers on this site who idolize their boys, not me son. The right wingers here cant stop drooling over their candidates
neither obama or romney can save our country. the rich and corporations are the only ones who can do it, but their greed has totally blinded them. They cant even see that the collapse of the country will be the collapse of them. They are all just too busy spending their cash to realize this.
population of over 300 million and counting, the end of our country is no doubt coming
Ktrain, I never said they should I said they COULD.
There are plenty of rags to riches stories out there.
Covers should make this the post of the month
lmfaooooooooooooooooooooooo. yup there are tons of people out there who started with little cash and made fortunes in the stock market.
just more silly bullshit from the spinster
I do not claim to know the
answer but…
Matt, excellent post. I never broke it down that way, but you are 100 percent right. Man the rich should be psuhing for that tax, then again they pay nothing now, why change the system

Santa Monica Dreams
Inspired by the rustic California landscape with it's earthy textures and sun kissed terrain, this bedroom evolved from a vision aimed to deliver sophisticated Cali cool.
Coco Cuba
I designed this tapes bar with our client to create an inviting Cuban experience. Many special features were implemented & sourced to bring to life an authentic environment.
Hollywood Glamour
I had so much fun creating these two entry rooms for my Hollywood Canyon client. We layered the two spaces with female touches inspired by old school Hollywood elegance and glamour.
Mexican Siesta
My client wanted a Mexican festival vibe in her guest bedroom to welcome family & friends. Vintage lamps & custom shades reminiscent of her childhood seaside port town were combined with fun pops of color and print.
Bedroom Goals
Stunning tall ceilings, abundant natural light, sensual fabrics…what more does one want to create a sumptuous bedroom retreat.
Classic Stripes
This guest bedroom employees a combination of tactile elements to create a room with personality and depth. Classic stripes, colors, texture and props pull together for a fun fresh take on a traditional theme.
View Project
Hollywood Canyon
A sneak peak at my latest residential project in the Hollywood Hills. A renowned actress from Mexico, my client wanted a home that reflected her love of color and life.
Our client had a clear vision of creating a family home that intimately spoke to the environment outside. An minimal / industrial approach was employed to bring the exterior elements in ensuring nature was always in the foreground.
View Project
Welcome Home
Symmetry was the design tool of choice to create this welcoming entry that spoke to a promise of discovery. As you enter the space you encounter the many interesting and vintage finds that this home was lovingly layered with.
Patio Perfection
I loved creating this outdoor space for this client to unwind and reconnect with nature. The modern Moroccan theme and symbols that we played with inside the home was continued into this outdoor space with the custom water feature.
Vintage Comfort
This small living space was designed to maximise family living and enjoyment. A playful use of colour and texture was employed to bring the space alive and connect it to its poolside location.
View Project
Restful Haven
The brief was to create a restful slumber land for my busy executive client. A space where she could unwind and recuperate in style and luxury.
Texture & Pattern
Great texture and pattern are a signature element which I love to incorporate in the spaces I create. Whether a bathroom or living room, when used correctly they evoke a 'wow' factor which elevates the room to a new horizon.
Simple, clean, elegant harmony combine to inspire restful sleep and relaxation in this Hollywood Canyon bedroom suite. Dream, dream away…
Poolside Pavilion
Bronwyn applied her space healing principles to turn a drab 80's kitchen into a vibrant family space, using up-cycled furnishings to meet her tight budget. The results were a liveable & lively space that the family adored.
View Project
Bohemian Vibe
Designing this space to address the clients request for a colorful bohemian look was a challenge I enjoyed wholeheartedly. Delivering a range of styles to address individual aesthetic values is always a process I embrace.
View Project
Traveller's Retreat
A small guest bedroom packs a punch with this dynamic fun wallpaper. Alluring the onlooker into this room from the hallway we tried to create a space with purpose as a vignette to enjoy as one journeyed through the home.
View Project
Form & Function
I designed this minimal bathroom for a lovely young couple who bought an architectural vintage icon. The prefab building, now considered very progressive, called for a sleek simple remodel to unite the existing features.
View Project
Seaside Dreaming
This elegant interior combines luxe linens with soft feminine colours to create a balanced, sophisticated and relaxed retreat. Fresh white furnishings are accented with textiles & accessories to achieve the perfect balance of seaside chic.
View Project
A Perfect Escape
I try not to be envious of the rooms I create for my client, but this one was tough….I could live here!
A Collected Home
This home has evolved over time, layer by layer. Collected pieces that tell the story of the owner & inspire her each and every day. This is where we find home, in the continuum of creation.
Grand Entry
Wallpaper, antiques & stunning wall lights combine to make this a welcoming vestibule. I opened up the space by widening two doorways & constructing arches with stained glass panels designed to match existing windows.
View Project
Bronte Beach
I had so much fun creating this oasis for my clients who were inspired by the 'Mad Men' TV series & Palm Springs vibe. Even with the color explosion it is a very restful & balanced space where they enjoy margaritas after a swim.
View Project
A place to read
I love this little nook I created in this client's home. Perfect for rugging up with a good book and backlit with plenty of ambient lighting to really get you in the mood.
Take Me Away…..
We created this simple comfortable bedroom using many lovely textiles and material to create a sense of warmth and cosiness. A pastel palette with tone on tone accents sweeps the room in a romantic, inviting way.
View Project
For Him & For her
This lovely master oasis was designed for a spirited couple who were brave enough to let me go bold with pattern & color. Custom bedside joinery, imported wallpaper and a bespoke behead set the tone for this lavish yet cozy space.
View Project
Santa Monica Sanctuary
A complete head to toe remodel of this quaint beach side Santa Monica town home, right down to the last perfectly selected and placed ornament. A living gallery for my lovely client, layered with all the things she loves.
Rustic Kitchen Dreams
A room full of personality & charm in its own right. Custom details such as the Belgium linen sink curtain, Moroccan hand made back-splash & stained American Oak combine to infuse the space with texture & warmth.
Designed with a nod to a bygone era, incorporating pattern on pattern, berber rugs and even 3 birds flying up the wall. I had fun interpreting my client's brief to create this one of a kind space.
View Project
Tree Tops
Designing this family room to accommodate a number of functions required a less traditional approach. The use of the over sized beanbag provided the perfect solution, keeping the flow open and flexible for both playtime and relaxing.
View Project
Personalising Space
This dynamic wallpaper bought back comforting memories of the black & white checkerboard flooring in this homeowner's childhood home. It also provided a much needed visual queue to direct the occupant into the hallway.
View Project
Caribbean Style
Inspired by the color & festivity of the Caribbean carnivale life. I styled this room to capture a true sense of delight & whimsy incorporating lots of brights & patterns in a fresh uplifting way.
View Project
Guest Retreat
I warned my client that we were making this guest bedroom way too comfy and guests may never leave. Plushness done right with all the trimmings in this delightful guest retreat.
Let's Take a Dip
Set in the foot hills of the Hollywood canyons this perfect oasis awaits. Hammocks, clear blue water, lush greenery, aqua shutters and outdoor furniture layered with exotic textiles & pillows all combine to create this ideal sanctuary.
Modern Icon
I've always wondered what this building in Neutral Bay was….a portable building, home or office? I was never sure. It was such a thrill to work on this progressive home & bring back to life its integrity that made it so iconic.

...in which Kyle and I rant at one another and few others seem to give a damn.
Took me a while to finally get around to it, but I picked up 2k12 a couple weeks ago. Good times. First NBA game I've actually been able to play 12 minute quarters on simulation gameplay (with the Real % shot-stick thing)... and get realistic numbers.
I tinkered around with My Player for a while, and it's greatly improved. I think they try to give you too many minutes too soon, but I understand that decision. I'm probably one of a select few perfectly willing to play a few seasons of My Benchwarmer for the sake of realism.
I've abandoned it for a while, and I'm really enjoying sinking time into Association this year. I'm just starting my second season, having done little but Sim, Trade, and Develop for the first season -- I like starting off the year with "My" team. Trying to turn the hapless Bobcats into a contender.
Went into nearly a full nerdrage during the draft. I invested -heavily- in scouting, and had tracked down a couple of big men with A and A+ potential projected to go around the back end of the lottery. I'm thinking I'll trade up and snag one, and I'm not thinking too much about the potential cost... My game DEMANDS a solid post game.
Anyway, I see one of the dudes get drafted at #6 overall, so I go into 'Oh-Crap' mode and start trying to trade for #7. I am told to go frick myself, and long story shortened, end up without a center for another year.
D.Gallinari is going to be a mega-stud after I gave him 'Untapped Potential', making his potential 98. I'm trying to teach him how to rebound. You're 6'10", dude, get the fricking ball.
Tyrus Thomas can be a monster, but he's wildly inconsistent. Had a game where the dude put up 40 points, 13 boards, and 2 blocks. Then he'd spend the next two weeks trying to accumulate same.
Kemba Walker is great, but I have problems figuring out how to use him. Driving the lane isn't really my strength. He's in a contract year, and I'm thinking VERY seriously about packaging him with a draft pick to pick up a high-upside center.
The GM side of things is awesome, this year in that it's making me think... and not letting me do just whatever the hell I want. I'm going to have to Pay Dearly to get a player I can work with. (Obviously, everyone's trying to trade me for Gallinari, now... Suck it. He's -my- 98 potential 6'10" SF locked in for 5 years at around 4.5mil per.)

How to Buy/Sell on Diaperswappers
We are glad that you are interested in buying/selling/trading in DiaperSwappers' For Sale Or Trade (FSOT) area! To help protect buyers and sellers, the FSOT area is now opt-in.
Here is All you need to know about BUYING, SELLING and TRADING on
How To Buy:
Check feedback. Below each person's username is a "Feedback" link. Click that, and you will be taken to that person's iTrader page. You can see the feedback which that person received for their previous transactions, including any neutrals or negatives, and the one-line comment for each one. You can also see if the feedback for that user is from them buying or selling.
Check join date and post count. A deal too good to be true from someone who joined a month ago with just a few posts probably is.
Ask the right questions. Here is a post on the types of questions to ask. If you think you've asked everything about the condition of your coveted item, check that post to see if you've missed anything important to you.
Use the search function. The FSOT is divided up into categories by type of diaper as well as several "off topic" for-sale categories, and you are welcome to browse, but if you know what you'd like then you can use the search feature of the forum to find what you're looking for.
Communicate with your seller. If you ask for payment information but will need to be away from your computer for two days, let them know so that they don't pass you by and go on to the next buyer while waiting for your payment. Remember that in order to send Private Messages, you will need to have made a minimum of 6 posts in any non-FSOT (For Sale or Trade) Forum.
Know the PayPal rules. Here is a link to explain how to send a PayPal payment. We encourage the use of PayPal for transactions on this site to provide protection for the buyer and seller.
How to Sell:
Join the Sellers group. To join the Sellers group, you will need to apply. Here are the new procedures as of 10-30-2015:
Choose the right subforum. Most items that you'd like to sell will fit best in one subforum. Please limit your threads to one thread per subforum.
Communicate with your buyer. Let them know if you will have shipping delays or if any other unusual situation comes up during your transaction. Many a "bad transaction experience" could have been prevented if the parties just communicated with each other. Remember that in order to send Private Messages, you will need to have made a minimum of 6 posts in any non-FSOT (For Sale or Trade) Forum.
Know your payment options. We recommend PayPal. If you use PayPal, you must accept the payment as goods - never personal.
Always get Delivery Confirmation. This can easily be done if you ship through PayPal, but if you need to go to the Post Office to get it, save the number so you can provide it to your buyer. Purchasing Delivery Confirmation is a REQUIREMENT to sell on this site.
Disclose condition accurately. Pictures are helpful. A word description is helpful. Using the "GUC" or "EUC" acronyms are generally not helpful, because one person's "excellent" used condition is another person's "good" used condition. But saying things like "the elastic still has plenty of stretch... it is 6" when unstretched and stretches to 10 inches" will easily let the buyer know what they can expect, even more so than "elastic is good."
Leave original description/photos in listing after the sale. You don't have to just leave them as you originally posted them... you can gray them out or move them to post #2 in your thread or move them to the end of your post or whatever, but please leave the original description and photos in your thread, in case there is a transaction dispute, instead of just deleting your entire post and typing "SOLD" in its place.
Refund double payments promptly. Be sure that you give your buyer enough time to pay before you move to the next person in line. Many users are not online during the weekends. Give the buyer a set time by which to pay before you move to the next person in line (if you have more than one person interested). Then send another PM letting them know that you've moved on, if applicable. But then if the first buyer didn't get the message and sent PayPal anyway, refund it within 24 hours and PM the buyer again. Whenever money changes hands, feedback can generally be left. Refunding within 24 hours will protect you from receiving negative feedback for an "incomplete" transaction.
How to trade:
Often, two parties will decide to trade product for product instead of buying or selling. Many of the same things for buyers AND sellers will apply to both trade parties. Here are some additional trading tips.
Hold off on using the item until both parties have received the packages. Let's say Susie sends Jan a diaper and Jan sends Susie a dress, and Susie wears the dress the same day she receives it but stains it/tears it/otherwise damages it. Some time after that, it's noticed that the diaper is lost in the mail and never arrived to Jan. At that point, Susie should send back the dress - but it's no longer in the same condition it was when Jan sent it to Susie, and greatly complicates the transaction. Both parties should hold off on using their received item until the other party also receives their item.
Ship at the same time. With rare exceptions, each party should send their end of the trade at the same time, no more than a day or so apart from each other.

Alta Mesa Resources, Inc. is a publicly traded (NASDAQ: AMR, AMRWW) independent exploration and production company focused on the development and acquisition of unconventional oil and natural gas reserves in the eastern portion of the Anadarko Basin referred to as the STACK. The STACK is an acronym describing both its location—Sooner Trend Anadarko Basin Canadian and Kingfisher County—and the multiple, stacked productive formations present in the area. The STACK is a prolific hydrocarbon system with high oil and liquids-rich natural gas content, multiple horizontal target horizons, extensive production history and historically high drilling success rates. Alta Mesa has assembled a large, highly contiguous leasehold position, largely in the up-dip, naturally-fractured oil portion of the STACK in eastern Kingfisher County, Oklahoma. The Company has identified over 4,000 gross horizontal drilling locations, at least half of which it expects to operate. These drilling locations are in Alta Mesa's primary target formations comprised of the Osage, Meramec and Oswego. Alta Mesa opportunistically acquires acreage in its non-operated locations with the goal of operating wells in these locations. Alta Mesa has a seasoned management team, whose mission is to maximize the profitability of our assets in a safe and environmentally sound manner. We apply advanced engineering analyses and enhanced geological techniques to under-developed or over-looked conventional resource areas to create value. We employ disciplined management processes and have the flexibility to respond to the market.

Biedermeier: Art and Culture in the Bohemian Lands 1814—1848)
The publication contains an overview of fine and applied arts of Biedermeier era in the Bohemian Lands presented from a viewpoint of current debate about the nature of this specific artistic and ideological trend. The first part is comprised of thematic essays that concentrate on varied spheres of art production of the period as well as its social and ideological roots. Special attention is devoted to cabinetmaking art, Bohemian glass and porcelain, fashion, as well as painting and graphic arts. The second, catalogue section, includes over 800 colour reproductions of exhibits and most of the entries are accompanied by a short annotation. This part is divided into several portions that follow the theme of home, elegant simplicity of the new style, inspiration by urban life as well as the cult of nature and natural materials. The book has been published by the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague and Gallery, Ltd, in August 2010.
Neoclassicism and Biedermeier from the Collections of the Prince of Liechtenstein)
The catalogue explores art treasures of the Neoclassical and Biedermeier eras from the rich collections of Hans-Adam II, the reigning Prince of Liechtenstein. Superb portrait, landscape and genre paintings by noted Viennese artists — Heinrich Füger, Friedrich von Amerling, Peter Fendi and Ferdinand Georg Waldmüller — attest to the role of the Princely Family as a leading patron, commissioner and collector of the arts. More than 300 works are included — paintings, sculpture, unique collections of Viennese hand-painted porcelain, architectural plans and furniture. The publication also focuses on the former Liechtenstein estates in Moravia. Vedute, water-colour paintings of interiors and furniture, especially from the Liechtensteins' country seats at Valtice and Lednice, provide an in-depth look at the lifestyle of this aristocratic family. The book was published by the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague and the Liechtenstein Museum, Vienna, to accompany the exhibition held in the Waldstein Riding Hall in Prague, May 6 — October 17, 2010.
Czech Photography of the 20th Century)
The best photography book published in Central and Eastern Europe in 2009-2010 competition, 1st Prize in the category Historical Photography The most comprehensive book on Czech Photography examines the individual movements and tendencies in photography throughout the 20th century. These include early-century styles (Pictorialism, documentary and reportage photography), modern photographic trends of the twenties, Surrealist experimentation and Poetism, postwar reportage and documentary photography, art photography and its various offshoots (The Happening, Land Art, Conceptual Art and Body Art), to staged and portrait photography of the late 20th century. Almost two hundred photographers have been selected, among them Josef Sudek, František Drtikol, Jaromír Funke, Jaroslav Rössler, Karel Hájek, Václav Jírů, Vilém Reichmann, Jan Reich, Jan Saudek, Josef Koudelka, and others. The reproductions of images lent from Czech and foreign collections offer a complex overview of 20th-century photography in the Bohemian Lands.
100 Percent Glass. Glassmaking School in Železný Brod 1920—2010)
In 2010, the glass school in Železný Brod celebrates its 90th anniversary. On this occasion, it has prepared in partnership with the Museum a publication abounding in lively colours, shapes and glass fantasy. Contemporary works created by the school's students are shown in interaction with outstanding creations from the early years of the institution's existence, designed by its instructors Alois Metelák, Jaroslav Brychta, Oldřich Žák, Ladislav Přenosil, Zdeněk Juna, and others. It features an extensive and variegated collection of glass vases, dishes, figurines, jewellery and objects executed in every imaginable technique that blends exquisite craftsmanship with inventive creativity. The publication traces the school's path toward the world recognition of Czech modern glass, ranging from Art Deco to the latest artistic concepts realized in this noble material. Furthermore, it indicates that the future of Czech glassmaking as a treasured national heirloom rests not only in the preservation of its tradition, but above all in the further enhancement of the internationally unique system of specialized glass education and training. The book was issued by the Museum of Decorative Arts in Prague in collaboration with the High School of Applied Art for Glassmaking in Železný Brod to accompany the exhibition held in the Museum from June 17th to September 19th, 2010.
Landscape / Image / Photography)
The landscape, the crossing-point between man and nature, has been a key theme in visual culture since the start of the 19the century. Its image becomes the projection area for the esthetic, philosophical and ideological reference and metaphor of the human relationships to the world. Landscape painting, whose boom characterizes the development of creative art in the 19th century, brings to the world of images the ever more urgent real landscape, but at the same time, it constitutes the rigid stereotypes with image clichés. The clichés are at first primarily accepted even by landscape photography, which complements this scheme with the material perfection of technical depiction. For landscape painting, photography becomes not only a helpful and amply-utilized aid, but mainly a relevant counterpart that reminds of the very task of artistic depiction. Thanks to photography, landscape painting emancipates from the dictate of being bound to topography and discovers its own new schemes. The publication illustrates this development of the confrontation of the representative works of essential authors of Czech landscape photography and landscape painting of the 19the century and beginning of the 20th century: Jindřich Eckert, Antonín Mánes, František Drtikol, Jakub Schikaneder, Karel Maria Chotek, Antonín Slavíček and others.
Artěl. Art d'ús diari/Arte de uso diario 1908–1935)
The Catalan-Spanish language publication explores one of the most outstanding institutions specializing in Czech applied arts and design during the first half of the 20th century. A variety of wares and designs bearing the prestigious Artěl trademark (ranging in style from late Art Nouveau, through Cubism, to Art Deco) is presented in several sections. Founded in Prague in 1908, Artěl associated prominent figures of the Czech art scene. Initially, the association focused on designing and manufacturing "minor art for everyday use" – small functional and decorative items made of wood, ceramic, metal and other materials. Over the years, it extended its activities to include comprehensive designs of interior spaces, both private homes and commercial interiors. An array of diverse views and trends emerged throughout Artěl's existence, yet all invariably pursued a common goal: to introduce a modern aesthetic outlook into the field of applied arts and to help cultivate household design and the lifestyles of the residents. True in the past and today, Artěl takes its rightful place in Europe's modern art and design movement, alongside the artistically-inspiring Wiener Werkstätte in Austria and the Bauhaus in Germany.
