You can make the kids on The Sims 2 do Mary Mack. - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
Now THAT one I've heard and sang. :) My old standby was always the Popeye the Sailor Man tune. Mainly because burning one's weiner was prime for giggles. - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
I'm Popeye Sailor Man. I live in a garbage can. I like to go swimmin with bowlegged women I'm popeye the sailor man! - DO ANYBODY NO MONIQUE
She's BACK! - Ms_Krista
I'm Popeye the Sailor Man...I live in a garbage can...I turned on the heater and burned off my weiner...I'm Popeye the Sailor Man! :D Mo knows where it's at. :D (there was also another verse "I turned on the gas and burned off my ass") - tinypants - Hagitha of FF
OMG, this thread is hysterical! Need to publish an urban adult rated songs from youth. I have never heard of any of these!!!!!! - Janet
Our rockin' robin: "Mama's in the kitchen, burning rice. Daddy's on the corner shootin' dice. Brother's in jail, raisin hell. Sister's on the corner selling fruit (cup your breast) cock (cover your privates) tail (shake your booty). Rockin' Robin." I can't believe I sang that when I was 6. LOL - Admiral Anika
*dead* that was one of our rockin' robin verses too. - tiffany
I fear I have had quite a boring childhood. LOL@Rockin Robin! - Janet
How about 'milk, milk, lemonade, round the back's where chocolate's made'... - WorldofHiglet
jlt-Janet: This is the version I heard when young: "Hilter's only got one ball the other's in the Free trade Hall, his brother, the dirty bugger, Chopped it off when he was small." There's a Wiki entry for this one! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... - WorldofHiglet
WoH, I never heard that one!!! I am seriously ready to sue my parents for the rich teachings I have missed out on! I am laughing at all these songs/poems. All I remember is itsy bitsy spider at the moment, no x-rated version either. - Janet
oh janet, these are not songs parents teach kids. these are songs kids teach each other... then you find out when you're 30 and grown that your mom used to say the same dirty stuff when *she* was a kid.... lol - tiffany
Sad I missed out of this stuff, sorta. Stupid suburbs. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Amber, I grew up mostly in the 'burbs. I just got some country-ass cousins. - Admiral Anika
Didn't have that. G-rated versions of all the songs. - Amber, Random Time Lord
Mine was tamer: Comet will make your teeth turn green / Comet it tastes like gasoline / Comet will make you vomit / So try some Comet and vomit today... - John E. Bredehoft from fftogo

Facebook Acquires FriendFeed - http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
Really? Whoa. - Veronica from Bookmarklet
Yea where did that come form!??? - Fee501st
I actually hope this isn't true. - Ryan
i hope not. how come TC is the only place I'm reading this?? - Edgar Rodríguez
Hmmm. Well, it's not April 1st. Interesting! - Tim Chemacki
My initial reaction is "Bummer" but I don't really know why yet. - Veronica
hmmmm, good thing or no? can't decide - chipmason
Veronica: same here, i dont like it - Fee501st
Presumably, it was a good exit for the founders. - DGentry
thats sucks, fb will kill ff - shaff
I don't like this... but think about it - Facebook was becoming quite like FriendFeed. However, Facebook is CLOSED, what I like about FriendFeed is being able to interact with lots of people that I haven't met IRL. I don't want these discussions to be taking place among my high school mates and coworkers. - Hector
My day was already crappy, now it's downright abysmal - Fleagle
Well that came out of nowhere. Honestly, I don't like it if it's true. - Adam Reyher from Alert Thingy
just when i was getting into the groove of friendfeeding - Edgar Rodríguez
mybe TC goofed and they will become network partners - Fee501st
The closed network thing is really troubling to me. - Veronica
Crap, I don't want to use facebook. - Steven Cogswell from iPhone
Well FF was (was? geez) a bit of an island, now maybe there will be both more openness and more, well people - chipmason
Veronica: yea - Fee501st
Whoa - Mauricio
Now i wish FF had Don't like at all option - Fee501st
Not excited at all. - Jordan Patterson
Welp, it was fun. See ya everybody. - Matthew DeVries
this is INCREDIBLE if its true. - Ron Mwangaguhunga
Facebook is blocked at my workplace while Twitter isn't. If FF is merged into Facebook, it will be the end of FF for me. - Hector
I don't see why this is a problem. What's making everybody a fatalist and think fb is going to kill ff? - Mauricio
Me thinks this does not bode well. >< - David C. Cooper
Matthew DeVries: *tear* :( - Fee501st
I think this means facebook is getting ready to compete against Google Wave, not only against twitter the real threat in the horizon is Google Wave!. - Carlos F. Sam Castillo
So much for having a good monday.... - Fee501st
Back to Twitter? WTF? - Matthew DeVries
It's in friendfeed-news now, too: http://ff.im/6pFNz - Ladybug Heather
im still on twitter, but i use FF alot more - Fee501st
From the blog: "FriendFeed.com will continue to operate normally for the time being." And later? That's a little troubling... - Aram Zucker-Scharff
Bwana said it: http://ff.im/6pGgD - Fee501st
So Facefeed or Feedface? - Fee501st
Friendfeed gets assimilated by FaceBook. - George Brickner
Damn. - vb100
i wonder for how much. - Kiran Patchigolla
I like the name feedface. - Ferdinand Perez
I don't like this. Facebook is too closed for conversations like these. - David Hepworth
also now FB owns your comments - Fee501st
Hrm...not sure what I think of that. Initial impression is not a positive one, but you never know, it might not be so bad. - Amy
The Scobleizer says FF is dead http://ff.im/6q5Wv - Fee501st
Facebook is dead. - Zachary TG
yeah l was on twitter and l recivced a twit.to check out friendfeed. - Isaac Antwi
<sarcasm>Thomas is looking forward to all the mafia requests from people he hasn't talked to in 15 years now that FB owns FF.</sarcasm> Sigh. - Thomas
I am excited. I use FB a lot. - Chris Nunz
If Facebook effs up FriendFeed, someone else will build the same functionality. But I doubt FB will screw with it to the point they wreck it. 47 million is a lot of money, they won't be willy nilly with it. - Dave Friedel
yeah l hear it was 80 million - Isaac Antwi
enjoyed TWIT this week - u go - Richard Brock
Veronica
I'm sorry, I just don't see the big deal about tr.im. For one, no one should be dependent on URL shorteners. On top of that. bit.ly is better anyway, and there are tons of other options out there. Tr.im users, why so broken up?
I wish there was more discussion on pURL http://purl.org but perhaps shortening is just lard in the frying pan. - Jay Cuthrell
yeah i don't see any reason to become attached to one URL shortener over another. never made sense to me. i use them all, with a slight emphasis on bit.ly and tinyurl - Dr. Frank Ramblings, Ph.D
Gruber had good reasoning for writing his own URL shortener for his blog. He doesn't have to worry about links going dead. - Joshua
Veronica: some of us used tr.im in our Tweets. Some of us hope our links never break. Some of us are sad. Anyone who has put anything into Twitter probably is depending on URL shorteners. Oh, I get it, you are asking why are any of us depending on Twitter. Well, now, THAT is an interesting question! - Robert Scoble
yea, i don't know what the big deal was did i miss something because i never heard of tr.im until this story, I always use bit.ly or tinyurl, Aslo you think it might because most twitter clients got pick what url shortener you use. - Fee501st
Fee501st: what would you say if bit.ly was the one who did this? - Robert Scoble
+1 for pURL. last time I looked it need an updated interface though - Marshall Kirkpatrick
If you're dependent on URL shorteners to use twitter, you should blame twitter for requiring a third-party work around in order to make up for a deficiency in their platform. - Andy Bakun
Andy: I already have. Why do you think I use FriendFeed so often? Now, what if FriendFeed decides to call it quits? Probably won't happen because there's a lot of passionate rich people behind FriendFeed, but it could happen. It's happened to me before (the first two years of my blog are gone because I depended on a third-party service). - Robert Scoble
Robert: i be kinda miffed that my old links don't work, but I don't think i post many tweets that people want to see months or years from now, but i would just move to another tiny url service. Also another reason i like FF better no need for a tiny url. - Fee501st
If FF called it quits it be sad day, how else would i bug Veronica ;P - Fee501st
To me, the issue isn't tr.im, but how it reflects on the entire ecosystem. What happens if Bit.ly gets hacked? What happens to all of those links? We shouldn't be dependent on them, but that would kill millions of links on Twitter, Facebook, blogs, etc. Worse, they could be hacked and redirected to malware. - Ben Parr
But like Veronica said on twit, i normally expand the url before i click on it. - Fee501st
even on other url shorten services? - Fee501st
xrl.us need i say more, 10 years+ in making & it still works - sam from twhirl
Maybe HTML6 needs an autoexpand for short URLs. The URL could be short in the text, but the full URL is in the HTML and a rollover expands it. Then even if short URL services die, all the existing links still work. - dthree
I wrote about this issue here: http://scobleizer.com/2009... - Robert Scoble
From an article (http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/technol...) I wrote in April - "URL shorteners - my biggest concern with this market is its future. Twitter has created a need for them by enforcing a character limit. Through tweeted discussions we click links from people we trust and the worst that can happen is being RickRoll’d. Given that mobile... more... - Dan Monsieurle
Without a doubt, there are fundamental issues with URL shorteners in general. In some cases it's impossible to post a link on Twitter without an URL shortener (try linking a Google search result page). In the case of tr.im it is the loss of user tracking that hurts the most. Like with many services on the Web, it's not the service itself but the interconnectivity that makes it valuable. - Henning von Vogelsang
I use a greasemonkey script (http://userscripts.org/scripts...) to un-shorten them on Twitter but I really don't see the big issue with Tr.im links going dead on twitter - who is actually going that far back through people's tweets? And if people are using them on blogs etc. then why aren't they just using the proper URL - I'd be VERY suspicious of usage when character count is not an issue! - Amy
of course, what's to say that the original full sized link becomes dead? How many of the sites you visited in the late 90's/early 2000's are still around? site relaunches/redesigns, editorial choices to pull items, entire companies ceasing to exist, people moving ISP/web host and data being lost or rejected in the process... The inherent nature of linking is wrought with dead ends as... more... - alphaxion
sorry for the caps, but WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO HTML??? - Chris Heath
Tr.im’s value comes from access to real-time traffic intelligence. Perfect for advertisers. Tr.im could be worth $4.5 million. First-time sellers (like first-time buyers) often don’t know how to work with investment bankers and are reluctant to do so. They don’t understand deal steps or the psychological aspects of strategic transactions and consequently fall victim to self-inflicted... more... - A Mitchell
I agree, I don't see this as any kind of warning other than an obvious "what took so long" observation that building an audience before the business plan is a good way to spend lots of money with nothing to show for it. There are only a few, very few lucky companies who might be able to pull that off, and even they are not exactly rolling in the (revenue) cash [Twitter]. - chipmason
Tr.im = only service providing dedicated URLs, with editing capabilities. Absolutely superior to Bit.ly. Awesome stats, by country and browser type. Ability to massage custom URLs, unlike Bit.ly, which is hit-or-miss and clumsy in that department. On the liability side, can you imagine litigating an IP or free-speech case in Libya? - A Mitchell
"Oh, I get it, you are asking why are any of us depending on Twitter. Well, now, THAT is an interesting question!" No, Scoble, I was not asking that (but nice baiting attempt). I don't think anyone should be dependent on URL shorteners, tr.im, bit.ly or otherwise. In the grand scheme of things, they're URLs for the short term and shouldn't be used as permalinks in blog posts, etc. It's a fundamental flaw. - Veronica
Agreed, URL shortening is an absurd business model. Its something that should be handled on a site-by-site basis; if I owned bit.ly or tr.im or any other shortening service, I'd be selling for my six-digits ASAP as my days are numbered. - Andrew Leahey
I think i depend more on FF then Twitter, also just remember links breaks on the internet, no matter who there from, I mean any site hit with a hard time can go away. A few years ago whoever though Geocities would go away - Fee501st
whoever knew geocities was still around? - Chris Heath
^ Won't be in few more weeks heh - Fee501st
i guess it was a self-fulfilling prophecy then - Chris Heath
Speaking of change did any of you do the Blind Search Engine test? http://blindsearch.fejus.com/ I got Google for Web, and Bling for images - Fee501st
Anyone using URL shorteners for links that should be persistent has no one to blame but themselves, unless of course you use Twitter and its default, then feel free to blame Twitter if that breaks. - LogEx
yeah, I don't get the uproar about this. 1) URL shorteners exist only for Twitter. 2) tr.im is and always has been an also-ran in the space. 3) Anyone trying to build a business off of URL shortening (and not using it as a supplement to their real business) is out of their mind. - Chieze Okoye
I agree. Who uses shortened URLs as a replacement for true URLs? Who would even consider doing that? Rhetorical question, as the only people depending on shortened URLs are hacks who don't understand the true infrastructure of the web. There are too many social media 'experts.' The value of a shortened URL is in it's disposability and the potential data garnered. - Dan Patterson
I like the approach that http://thereallymobileproject.com has taken. The team also has http://trmp.tv to provide short permalinks for each post. - Dan Monsieurle
Fee, I did try the blind search before the end of twit (it was back up) with a vanity search (which i knew the google results for already) but my sites cam up first in one of the blind searches so i picked that (google has wikipedia article first) and it was yahoo... for images i ended up picking google on a guess that it was google... none of my pictures were in the top results (and i kind of like that) .... enough parens for ya'? - Chris Heath
and about the topic at hand... it seems a no brainer that a link (or links) could be easily added to the transport of microblog messages outside of the 140 character limit (as dave winer has proposed) but the SMS is the limiting factor here i guesss so for SMS there should be a different way to handle the links (either that or drop SMS entirely since the phone companies seem to charge exorbitant amounts per byte for SMS data) - Chris Heath
Dan P, 100% correct (IMHO). - Veronica
Never know where you are going to go when you click on one of those anyway never liked them - Robert Burgin
Thanks Veronica. It's odd to me that this is even a discussion, and demonstrates the disconnect between the ever-growing gap between those who claim to be 'experts,' and those with a true understanding of the web. Now, I can see some value in a branded URL shortener as it might lend trust to the link (I trust small company X, any therefor my trust is transfered to a branded link from... more... - Dan Patterson
Speaking of FF, Facebook Acquires FriendFeed? http://www.techcrunch.com/2009... What? - Fee501st
but the older a link is, the greater the likelihood of the original breaking anyway... - alphaxion
When you started talking about this on TWiT I thought you were going in the opposite direction. - kenneth glenn
URL shorteners are bleeding edge. They need to mature. Sites or webmail that use them need to start decoding them. It needs to become like zipping and unzipping. That way only the transmission relies on them and any archival usage (like a website) just decodes them. Problem solved. They can expire in weeks that way. This model, btw, is already heavily used in transaction processing in business, cable modems, and so on. - Dave Friedel
and microblogging iPhone apps (like LaTwit) ... LaTwit will show me the actual URL, not the shortened URL... also identispy and twitterspy (dustin's IM/jabber clients do the same) - Chris Heath

"Pomona's Universal Pectin" is a sugar-free, low-methoxyl citrus pectin that is activated by calcium. Since it does not require sugar to jell, jams and jellies can be made with less, little, or no sugar. Some other possible sweeteners are honey, fructose, sucanat, concentrated fruit sweetener, maple syrup, agave, frozen juice concentrate, stevia, xylitol, Splenda and other artificial sweeteners." - Christopher Harley from Bookmarklet
Are you making jam? Wanna give me hints as to how to make low-sugar jam with Pomona's? I have some in my pantry but I've been too scared to try making jam without being taught how. - Spidra Webster
I haven't tried using Pomona's yet, Spidra. I knew this might be of interest on FF. Later this summer I have some jam ideas. I'll report back. - Christopher Harley
Spidra, you could probably use it to make freezer jam, which avoids the whole canning aspect. - FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
I keep wanting to learn to do it for real, Tina, but you're right I may have to do freezer jam until I have a friend who'll teach me. - Spidra Webster

Seriously, did everyone know that but me? I feel like a moron. I may have to drink myself happy tonight. - Alex Scrivener
I had no idea either. - Todd Hoff
Steven Perez is still in denial so don't make too big a fuss of it. :) - CAJ, somewhere else
We usually refer to coriander as the seeds and cilantro as the plant. - Admiral Anika
Anika is right. I use coriander in my beer, not cilantro. - Ben Hanten
Depends where you are in the world I guess. In India, we refer to them as coriander (leaves) and coriander seeds. In most Indian languages, "kothambari" - the leaves. - Kamath (नमः)
Further reading in the Wikipedia article echos what is being said above: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki.... The leaves are the part called cilantro, whereas the fruits are coriander. - CAJ, somewhere else
My head just exploded. - Mauricio
I had no idea either! - Haggis (Sean Loyless)
I've long suspected that this was the case - and now the matter is finally resolved. I love coriander, in just about anything, but I wasn't so sure about cilantro, that sure is a funny way to pronounce Kory Anda -/ - Chris Loft
I love watching Nigella - I could eat her with coriander or cilantro - or both. - Chris Loft

What's the app you were using for the 3G? Wow, I didn't know such a utility existed. You have some really good information here. - Mona Nomura
ooh..nice. Downloading. - Kamath (नमः)
App I had been using on 3G was Free Memory - it's a free app. It shows only free RAM memory and battery %age, not all the info iStat shows. - Patrick Jordan

iPhone Porn App Not Pulled By Apple, Just “Sold Out.” Other Porn Apps Available. http://www.techcrunch.com/2009...
Wait... sold out? How is that possible? - Veronica
Veronica: I think it was a manner of saying that the devs were doing a 'controlled release' of the app due to avoiding their servers crashing. Pardon the pun. :) - John Fox
yeah, i put that in there. the sold out thing is sketchy, but it appears the demand for the app's pictures was crashing their servers, so they made it unavailable. that's what they're saying, at least. - MG Siegler
I *probably* should read your article before commenting ;) - Veronica
oh that's okay, i figure about 90% of our comments are from people who don't actually read the post :) - MG Siegler
sorry, all internets sold out, come back tomorrow - we'll get you more of them - Kirill Bolgarov
Damn i missed it! ;) - Fee501st

If the internet commenting community had a magazine, here's what the cover would look like: http://www.buzzfeed.com/peggy...
First. - aldenoneil
awesome. that link is definitely going to be my new response to the trolls. - MG Siegler
Tee hee! I think another story they missed is "If there are no pics, did it REALLY happen?" - Fleagle
Ironic MG Siegler says that considering TechCrunch is owned by one of the biggest trolls on the net, according to Leo Laporte (world-wide tech hero to millions). I think Arrington is the owner anyway. - Mark
Fleagle, I'm pretty sure that was in last month's issue - Chris Heath
There's also no "Shoe on head!" section. - Veronica
So true! - Fee501st
Where can I buy it!!! - Alex 'BuckyBit' Covic

damn that is so cool. thanks, wirehead! lenna (actually, lena) became the 'First Lady of the Internet' because of the algorithms that are used in digital image processing that exist in a particular image of her from that issue of playboy. that is very cool. 'one of the influential photographs that changed the course of history', it says, and lenna 'was a guest at the 50th annual Conference of the Society for Imaging Science and Technology in 1997.' - docrivs
