The Sanctity of Marriage
Posted 14 years agoPersonally, I find "protecting the sanctity of marriage" an odd notion. We're not stopping divorce. 50% of marriages never last. Cheating isn't illegal. Just ask Tiger. Hugh Hefner marrying a woman 60 years his younger? Fine. 'Til death do you part? A lawyer can fix that. Five or six times for some people.
Yet, two women/men want to hook up...
We're not protecting marriage. We're just stopping gays.
I know this has been stated before, but it still needs to be stressed.

The Sink From Hell
Posted 14 years agoSo, we have this sink at one of my work locations (I'll call it "Diablo"). Diablo Sink is not normal, and if you turn the lever a certain way... it emits a massive noise, and causes the entire floor to shake and rumble. You can feel it a few offices away.
This can't be good.

Rumor Control: Fanart
Posted 15 years agoThere is no ban on fanart. It's NEVER even been discussed. Stop listening to people who are easily panicked. EEK! A shadow!
I'm a Lumberjack!
Posted 15 years agoWe've been seeing some issues with FA running slow lately, and we've updated quite a bit behind the scenes to try to combat that. With our new server, Sparkz, we're doing some more advanced logging to try to track down and curb leechers.
Let me preface: we have no problem with people using the site, even heavily. We do, however, take issues with people scripting downloads, and that we can easily curb.
Use the site, but don't abuse it. As of writing this, there's about 7,500 of you all sharing the connection. That peaks up to 8-10K at night, sometimes even more (yes, really - that much!). It's a big site, but we still ask that people use it within reasonable limitations.
We're tracking volume, not data. We're already seeing some interesting (and unusual) statistics out there. In less than 12 hours, we've already seen one user soak up as much data as four other users in the top 10 (1.79GB of data downloaded). That user has no watches, no page views, nothing. Guess what that person is? Yep. Scripter. And that's not something we're cool with.
If we suspect that you're using scripts to leech and seed we won't ban you, but we will rate limit you IP down to more reasonable levels.
Routezilla, our Cisco 7301, will stomp you.
And if you continue to do it after that... well... =)

The Ultimate Potato Prank
Posted 15 years agoDay One: Get a potato, leave it on a counter.
Day Two: Give the potato some toothpicks legs. Potato is evolving!
Day Three: Draw a smile, give the potato some eyes, maybe even a little hat made out of out construction paper.
Day Four: Give the potato a name, preferably one of your roommates. Whenever you pass by the potato, start talking to it. Say hi, make small talk. Make sure your roommate is there to see you calling the potato by his/her name, as it will add to the confusion.
Day Five: When nobody's around, sometime during the night, stab a knife inside the potato. Squirt ketchup all over the counter and leave the potato's corpse on the counter for the roommate to find tiny a tiny, spuddy crime-scene.

We can't stop here, this is LBAAT country!
Posted 15 years agoYou've all experienced this. The LBAAT phenomenon. You're browsing FA, SoFurry, Deviant Art or your art site of choice and... WHAT'S THAT!? That's incredible! *click* And then you scream. Well, maybe you don't scream. I know I do.
LBAAT - Looked Better As A Thumbnail
You go back, look at the thumbnail which looks /perfect/, go forward again, going "How did... it... it looked so promising, I... I... what? How!? HOW!?". Everything looked so promising! The thumbnail was PERFECT. But the picture? Not so much, no. And then your attention span snaps, and it starts screaming "BALL! FORK! PEN! DUST MITE! STOP LOOKING AT THIS SHIT! JUST... look, there's something shiny in the corner. Stop it. Just... GO LOOK AT THE SHINY!"
And then you stop caring.
LBAAT.
EDIT: This is in no way meant to slam any particular artists. It's just something we all experience over time, where you get your hopes up... and it's just not quite what you thought it was.

Dragoneer vs Four Loko
Posted 15 years agoFor those not in the know, the FDA recently put their foot down on selling "energy booze". Essentially, canned beverages containing alcohol and energy drink essentials (caffeine, guarana) to be flatlined. They have two weeks to pull or remove all products from store shelves.
So, naturally, I had to try one. I grabbed two Four Lokos from the store, curious.
Tonight, I'm attacking them. Both a Watermelon and a Fruit Punch, and I'll be updating this journal periodically throughout the night the night with opinions (not live blogging it, just updating every 15 minutes or so). As a person who exists on caffeine and as a level 17 alcohol, I figured this would be an interesting experiment for the sake o' fun.
I posted about it on Twitter, carrying it over here.
6:55 - Four Loko Fruit Punch tastes like 10 day old Hi-C that's been sitting out on a kitchen counter mixed with stale beer. I can't really describe it like anything else. It's not beer, it's not energy drink. It's carbonated ass with artificial fruit flavoring.
7:16 - Oh. Good. The more I drink this shit the better it tastes. That means one of two things. It's deadening my tongue with its sickly taste... or Four Loko is
evolving.
7:38 - Half a can down. I can no longer taste the disgusting beer-like violation that has entered my mouth. The after taste is probably the worst part of this (next to, say, drinking it). It's horrible, but for some reason... isn't near as bad anymore.
I really only have one thought process so far: regret.
And once I'm done this can, I have the can of watermelon. Great. Christmas comes early, and apparently Santa Claus is a self-loathing man suffering the throngs of depression and projectile angst.
7:47 - It's almost gone. The first one's almost gone! A miracle. I've almost slayed the beast. After going this far in, I've realized "Four Loko" is more a concept than it is a name. It represent the kind of words you're going to be using when flushing this shit down into your system. It's nasty, it's repulsive and vile and WHEEEEEE!
7:54 - Funyuns go well with anything. ANYTHING. It's a scientific fact.
Also... the FRUIT PUNCH IS DEAD! May that horrible vile never touch my lips again.
I still feel sober, so... uh... 12% volume by what?
7:59 - Short intermission before going after the Four Loko Watermelon. Must put food into the stomach. Funyons really only go so far, and alcohol and empty stomach is never a wise move. I am a lil' fuzzy when I stand up... but otherwise, I can't tell if it's done anything.
8:05 - ROUND TWO! FIIIGHT!
Watermelon tastes like... well, it tastes like beer and fruity watermelon Bubbilicious blended up in a can. Is this a good thing? Is is the bad thing? I'm not sure, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to go to hell.
I also have a chicken strips. Considering what I'm drinking, do the math... and I'm going to hell.
8:23 - Oh good. This stuff really just sinks into your stomach and sits there. Like a tiny like where the unsuspecting are lured in and drown an unsavory death, and the only sign left of their burbling demise is a lonely floaty cresting across the water like a lone survivor of a ship wreck.
Also: there it is. Caffeine rush, and little bit extra. It's hittin' fairly decently.
8:30 - it's like an energized Zerg rush to my face. caffeine is definitely kicking in hardcore.
8:37 - where's the kaboom?
8:50 - how do people drink this shit? desperation? do people take a Mach 5 to their tongues and shave off their tastebuds?
finished both cans, and I've learned one thing: $2.99 is the price of Regret, conveniently canned and available ice cold for your convenience at your local gas station
further, which begs the question... why the fuck are gas stations the "go to" place** to get booze on-the-go? didn't that entire don't drink-and-drive shit have any realistic bearing or impact? may as well covert the local DMV into a fucking hard alcohol store, because at least then you have some justifiable fucking reason for having to stand in line that long
my stomach hurts
i don't feel in any way intoxicated after both cans, but I do feel uncomfortable anxious. Four loko isn't dangerous as a booze, but for the amount of caffeine it has - and this coming from me! It's NOS, cheap beer and fruity pebbles mixed in together
i know i stopped giving a shit about spelling a little bit ago, but I can't tell if that's from the Four Loko or just the general level of apathy I'm experiencing after drinking this crap
no doubt due to pouring 48 ounces of liquid hate consumed in about two hours. maybe this should work work better as a slurpee
did I mention my stomach hurt?
** unless you're from Pennsylvania like me, then this entire fucking train of thought will make you just a little sad inside
9:00 - yes. two Four Lokos is two more Four Lokos than anybody should drink. at least I had food in my stomach, otherwise I can totally see people getting sick off their ass
Each Four Loko is the eqv. of about 2.5 to 3 beers, and about 2.5 Red Bulls
I admit, I only bought these because A) the hype and B) curiousity. i'm that kind of person. Dangerous? No. Disgusting? Yes. I imagine these are worse for if you're shotgunning/chugging them down (read: if you're a fucking moron) or had nothing to eat, or are just really sensitive to caffeine
This was definitely something I would not do again.
9:23 - Closing thoughts? if anybody blacks out from this shit they shouldn't be drinking. I have a stomach cramp, yeah, but that's mostly because this shit is downright nasty as hell and there's a hell of a lot of it. if four loko is enough to fuck you up, send you to the hospital, then I have this to say: you're going to die anyway. if it's not four loko, it'll be vodka, bourbon, whiskey, beer, a rubbery ducky. YOU SHOULD NOT BE DRINKING
and I say this as a person who has been in some scary ass situations involving alcohol, both with myself and others
the level of alcohol is tame compared to a strong mixed drink which you're going to ingest at a much faster rate.
I have a stomach ache, a light buzz and an extremely uncomfortable energy rush.
treat alcohol with respect. it /can/ kill you, it /can/ fuck you up, and if you're not careful, it will fuck up the lives of other people. and never get behind the wheel.

Thanks to both Hoot and Chase for doing some digging, every single account name was banned. If you have an old name you want to pass on to people we're fine with that (but for the love of God, please make sure they've read the rules). FA is free, registration is free, and anybody selling FA usernames is a douchebag (our official stance on it!). So, take heed: if you're planning on mass registering names to sell them, you're going to discover a firing line of admins with Gatling Hammers taking out the accounts.
Once again, thanks to
hoot and
chase

Thanks to hoot, we were alerted to this thread here:

A guy calling himself "Seattle" on Furcadia put up a posting that he had 119 FA account names for sale, and to PM him for info on names and rates... so we did!
It's a very long list, and you're looking at no more than $10 per name. Most of them I will sell for $5, and I bundle names if you're interested in buying more than one.

Furry Convention Perspective
Posted 15 years ago
Anthrocon? Further Confusion? Midwest FurFest? Furry Weekend Atlanta? Furfright? What do they all have in common? Combined, their attendees can't match the attendance of the Fiery Foods & BBQ Show convention's 14,000+ who migrate every year to Albuquerque, NM. Puts things into perspective, doesn't it? A freakin' convention about chile peppers (and sometimes BBQ) draws in more people than all the biggest furry conventions combined.
Oi!
And with FAU at 500+ people... haha.
But y'know what? Fuck chile peppers. FUCK THEM! I... wait, no, that could be all too spicy in a very, very bad place.
