Ah the average Religious bigots...

I always thought ultra religious were freaky, even when I was a religious person. Back then, I felt I was freaky too. Anyway, let's not go there, just check out this series of photos taken by Activetills of a bunch of (freaky) ultra-orthodox Jews protesting the opening of a parking lot in Jerusalem.

It's insane how all religious bigots are the same. In fact, religious bigots are just like any other breed if intolerant, insecure, phallocentric individuals. They are childish (that is why they always like to brainwash their kids and take them to protests), they love to throw rocks and make weird grimace in front of photographers, they make a point out of dressing in a very very very specific way that resists change as decades pass by and they never have a tan (well if their skin is tannable of course) and they are almost always men (sometimes they remember the amazing advantage of having vaginas with them but they always make sure to discipline those things first).

And oh! I forgot something, they are always right! I mean look at these people they are protesting the opening of a parking lot on a shabat...

Euh, isn't protesting on a shabat wrong?
   No, it is not, because they protested on a saturday and they are always right.
Euh, aren't they imposing their own beliefs on others?
   No, it is their will and therefore it is righteous, now stop arguing and demonstrate.

It's amusing to see it happen in another country of course, but I think of some example closer to home and I am suddenly scared, you know what i mean?

#11commandment - And you thought Twitter doesn't have games

The rules are simple, you know the 10 commandments that God gave to Moses? You know, like a "Believing for Dummies" Kinda guide...

So if you were God (after all you are the god of your twitter) what 11th commandment would you add? It can be lame like this one:

TheAvenged RT @RubyGold: thou shalt not tweet everything #11thcommandment


Or funny, like this one:
scarletlips #11thcommandment ~ thou shall never nude run to get a towel when the balcony door's wide open.


It can be relevant to the first 10 commandments:
JeanineHowton RT @joewhite89 #11thCommandment : Thou shalt ignore the first ten.


Or totally irrelevant:
#11thcommandment Thou shalt never use swiss cheese to make nachos.


Let's play :D

Vista task bar taken a step too far

From Einmal ist Keinmal


Ah the stupid things you can do with Vista!
Even though I keep the largest taskbar in my own circle of acquaintances, I can't think of any use of a taskbar that huge, two or three rows are more than enough. If you need more, then you certainly have a problem :D

Wordle

Wordle is not a very recent invention, but it's the first time I ever try it.

Quoting the authors:
Wordle is a toy for generating “word clouds” from text that you provide. The clouds give greater prominence to words that appear more frequently in the source text. You can tweak your clouds with different fonts, layouts, and color schemes. The images you create with Wordle are yours to use however you like. You can print them out, or save them to the Wordle gallery to share with your friends.


It's very fun, you just enter a certain text, a webpage that provides a feed, or even a delicious account and it will visualize the most recurrent words. So I wanted to test it, and testing it I did. I used all the blogs/websites/delicious accounts that I know about, then I was like: Wait a minute! Let's see some webpage that has been around for a while and see what are the word that is most used.

And naturally, I used SandMonkey's website and here's the result:


So SandMonkey talks alot about "people". Cute, non?
