But when *I* do it, it's charming!

Heh. The perks of being the owner I suppose. I really don't know what was so funny about the video. It was sort of funny. The way he describes it though, he must of been rolling around on the floor. And just the thought of that is actually more funny than the video. But then, people rolling on the floors is always funny. No matter if it's an alien in my head or a person who I think is mathowie but only because he's wearing that crazy bike helmet and making that terrible face.

I knew this would be over here sooner or later.

As for my opinion on the post, it's ages old (4-5 years) and it sucks. But I have a feeling it won't be deleted.

panoptican, the duck in my head wants to chat with the alien in your head.

It really sucks to have to agree with ParisPeepee [see his frosty piss].

This comment makes the crap post worthwhile.

"hilarity ensues" never does. My $0.02.

So? Flag it and move on.

You realize that to a sizable population of MetaFilter, you all are just a bunch of "Metachatters", right? You are responsible for the FARKularzation "problem" according to these pretensious snobs. And now some of you are acting like them because Matt made a bad post out of the several hundred he's done?

Matt's posts are almost always pepsi blue or fark. They have never been of much interest to me but this does seem a new low.

You probably don't know this, but there was a time on metafilter when we used to post funny stuff. It wasn't all political nonsense/news all the time.

"we used to post funny stuff" I remember the funny stuff but what does funny have to do with matt's post?

The politics and news is why I don't go back there.

Um, what? Maybe I don't read MeTa enough but I don't get that impression. And lots of the "recent mefi posts by mecha users" are frequently high quality.

In fact, wasn't anastasiav's contest initially announced here?

posted by kenko 28 December | 14:07

Yes, anastasiav's contest --and the reaction to it-- is what kinda what I had in mind. Obviously, I don't agree with pretensious (sic!) snobs' view, here or there. I like farkfilter.
