This was my first time ever seeing Sanctuary, It was pretty good but I've got to say it isn't a show that is easy to jump into without seeing the first season. A season recap episode (ala shows like Lost) would be nice.

thats what i was thinking last night when friends came down from williamsburg & brought their pizza, ;) (knowing that i was powerless & HUNGRY, ;)
- chaz2b
I don't understand why people get all "sad" and pull each others' dicks every time someone quits FF over something retarded. Who. Cares. Then they come back a week later and everyone jerks each other off again.
I agree. I get tired of seeing people go off in a huff and then fawned over when they come back a week later.
- Alan Simpson
I don't understand the level of hypersensitivity - I kind of do when it's a sixteen-year-old like Holden. But I also think maybe it takes a certain level of maturity to belong to a community like FF. Or is that the issue when it comes to the Adens and Lindseys of the world too?
- MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
I think I've missed out on a very significant part of the Friendfeed "community". And I'm not talking about Holden deleting his account.
- Kenton
Who came back? When I got unsubscribed from as part of mass unsubscribing, I returned the favor, so I might be missing something...
- Kamilah Gill
Aden's back, but I was thinking more generally. I have pretty much seen this in ever community I have belonged to. Someone gets upset and quits, then they come back and people fawn over them.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I see what happened to one of the young peoples of FF. All I can say is, sigh. I think all the folks under about 20 need a big fat disclaimer to tell people HEY YOU. YEAH, YOU. YOU ARE ADDRESSING A TEENAGER. GO A LITTLE EASY.
- Kamilah Gill
Some people are sad that others leave and then happy when they return. Its a social site that they all share their feelings and thoughts. Its part of the deal. When you delete your account and come back people will fawn over you too.
- CW™
I'm in the Rahsheen school of thought on this one. You'll only pry my FF account out of my cold, dead, hands.
- Kamilah Gill
Hey. Maybe if I pretend to leave in a huff and then come back a week later people will like me more. I should try this in real life as well.
- Alan Simpson
eh, Holden has no problem starting shit with people on a fairly frequent basis, I think at some point people can stop pulling punches on him.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I doubt most people would even notice if I quit.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I guess he's back already with a private feed? Holdenpage. For anyone who's interested. I'm really not. I just noticed. *shrug*
- Kamilah Gill
People like jerking off. What're you gonna do?
- Victor Ganata
Kamillah, it's me the Holdenpage account.
- Jimminy
ah, ok. you're messing around. You know, I get you two mixed up sometimes. are you sure you're not just one person?
- Kamilah Gill
LOL, we're not sure about that either sometimes.
- Jimminy
Because this whole site seems to be a popularity contest. Most of the shit I've read on here makes me cringe because it's either so self-absorbed or insane. I've seen some emotional breakdowns on FF that I've never seen on other social networks. Some chick was whining and moaning about her life the other day. I just rolled my eyes and kept the ball rolling. If you need to bitch & moan about how terrible your life is online, maybe you should think about getting a motherfucking therapist.
- Steven Summers
Therapy is expensive, and often not covered by insurance. This is free. :D
- Victor Ganata
Well, then at least use the social networking site that was made for emo retards. What's the name of it again? Oh yeah, MYSPACE.
- Steven Summers
Steven, if you don't like it when people post emotional stuff here, you can always hide or block. There's no need to chide people for doing it.
- John (a.k.a. dendroica)
Dragon, I would. I noticed I mysteriously became unsubbed to you - musta happened when you enhanced your moniker - and I found THAT disturbing. (I also resubbed to you immediately.)
- MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
MaryB lol I wonder how that happened! I wish FF had a better way of seeing who is subbed to you because I never check those emails they send. :[
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I would never participate in a social network for emo retards unless Steven Summers was leading the charge.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Pulling my dick? No wonder I woke up all happy today.
-
Nobody noticed when I left and then came back. But that might just be because I'm not mental.
- Christopher Harley
Akiva, I only take the truly insane. Do you qualify?
- Steven Summers
I think there is a large business opportunity for social network therapist, kind of like a Dr. Phil for social networks, though it would probably be better if you weren't mental like Dr. Phil.
- Ed Millard
Wow how did someone leave a comment with no name? I want.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
How can you truly understand crazy if you aren't crazy yourself? :)
- Victor Ganata
Very true Victor, that is the best explanation I've heard for Dr. Phil's success, that and Oprah made him. I'm wondering if Carrie Fischer is available to be the FriendFeed social network therapist, this place clearly needs one. Her therapist in Austin Powers was great.
- Ed Millard
Because I don't like my friends having to leave the party because of someone else. After 17 months here, I like this space. Some of the people were true friends and not everything is a circle jerk.
- Johnny Worthington
from iPhone
pulling dicks is better than pooling dicks.
- Morgan Haley
I understand why people get upset after they see people get "nerd mobbed" , because not all of them do come back. It seems like the same cast of characters doing it again and again.
- Joe
Wow, I have been missing all the drama lately, I guess... But Steven Summers is cracking me up. Of course social networking is part popularity contest... any social interactions are... LOL! But that's not the whole of it...
- Her Lindsay-ness
I just scroll past the stuff that is too much for me... And look for the stuff that makes me happy or makes me laugh instead.. most of the time you do a good job of that, Andrea. :)
- Her Lindsay-ness
I don't feel bad for her at all. She needs to have a learnin' put on her.
- Jim Hearts FF
Holden, why? Because she blocked my driveway and now I can't drive down my driveway? Akiva is blocked in and can't leave now. Why should I feel bad for the girl who did that?
- Rochelle
I blocked your driveway the other day and you didn't call the cops on me.
- Sparky, a big deal
Sparky, you're lucky I didn't see it!!!!!!!
- Rochelle
It's a bummer for her? She needs to pay attention to what she's doing. She probably just doesn't give a shit. She deserves the ticket for being a self-absorbed diaperlick.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I feel bad for the poor teenie-bopper because of the wrath of Rochelle...
- MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
I didn't wait til I was "old" to do that. Selfish behavior like that needs to be smacked down and smacked down HARD.
- Spidra Webster
If you're a licensed driver, it's your responsibility to follow laws (including not blocking driveways) whether you're 16 or 60.
- Rochelle
It doesn't even have to be a law. It just means you're thinking of others instead of ONLY of your own convenience. Something that is increasingly rare in US society, sadly.
- Spidra Webster
for some strange reason, this makes you even more desirable....way to stick up for what's right! you go girl!
- Morgan Haley
Being a teenager doesn't excuse you from being responsible. You make a mistake? You pay the price. End of story.
- Akiva Moskovitz
oh, i forgot to ask....was the teenage girl hot? :-)
- Morgan Haley
It doesn't matter if she did it on purpose or not. She broke a law and there's a penalty to pay for that. *shrug*
- Rochelle
What makes it worse is that there is PLENTY of street parking out there right now. Most of the block is empty. Parking directly in front of my driveway is all kinds of weird given how much space there is.
- Rochelle
Holden - 1.) The girls isn't reading this 2.) Even if she was, she wouldn't give you a hand job for sticking up for her - There's no point in taking a absurd point of view that no person could ever logically come to.
- Matthew DeVries
How could she "not know", Holden? Unless she's parking in front of her own driveway, she knows she's blocking someone else's driveway.
- Spidra Webster
Rather than call the cops, you should have lit her car on fire.
- Bren, Photophobe
from iPhone
So Holden, do you think that the magic moment that she turns 20 (not a teenager anymore), she *should* get a ticket but right now, since she's a teen, she shouldn't?
- Rochelle
I was going to like this for "diaperlick" but saw that I had liked it already. And, unless your driveway doesn't look like a driveway, there is no excuse for blocking it. It *might* have put a damper on the girl's day, but hopefully she learns from it and doesn't repeat the mistake. I used to get my driveway in SF blocked all the time by a woman who didn't think she should have to walk more than a few feet to her front door. I was perversely satisfied the day the tow truck got to her car before she did!
- vicster
I don't think Holden is saying she shouldn't get a ticket... he's just saying it's a crappy situation if it was indeed unintentional.
- Ryan Christensen
I called the secuirty firm for my apt complex everytime someone parked in my stall until I moved into a garage. They tow! Now those people learn not to park there!
- Liana Shanes
She comes here all the time. She knows where the driveways are. In fact, we've seen her park like a jackass before, blocking people in, parking in the middle of the road, etc.
- Akiva Moskovitz
There are some rare rare cases where it's not easy to tell one is in front of driveway. Particularly badly graded sidewalks/driveways, for instance. But the vast majority of driveways are obvious. Anyone who parks in front of one and doesn't notice they're doing so is probably unsafe to be licensed to drive at all if they're that clueless. If they *did* notice and thought "I'll only be a minute", they have no one to blame but themselves. Selfish shit like that is rampant and wrong.
- Spidra Webster
Yes Holden - When I was a lad I grasped at silly and insane to stick up for girls too. You're thinking with your wrong brain.
- Matthew DeVries
they have to learn ........what if you have to get out in a hurry
- VAL D.
Someone blocked me in once. I made a mental note...and let the air out of their tires. Hood -->
- Derrick
Well, there's still a chance for her to get away with this. The cops haven't shown up yet so if she comes out and moves her car before they get here, she'll avoid a ticket. Maybe you can text her, Holden, and tell her to move.
- Rochelle
Punishment is part of the learning experience, Holden. Anyone who doesn't notice there's a driveway around when the driveway is pretty clearly marked will pay more attention next time if they had to pay a ticket and/or get their car out of impound.
- Spidra Webster
Also, my car is clearly parked in the driveway. It's not like it's obscured by a hedge or an Einstein-Rosen Bridge or anything.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Derrick, I wanted so often to do something but in my neighborhood, they would escalate and it would get REALLY ugly.
- Spidra Webster
Spidra, consider my experience one in which you've lived vicariously. And looking at this thread, I officially feel old.
- Derrick
Well, maybe she'll learn a lesson and she won't have to be bummed again for being such a clueless cockfoam. Because clearly being bummed about something is an incredible ordeal.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Ooooooo, burrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrn, Holden! Dude, you TOTALLY just taught me a lesson!!!!!!
- Akiva Moskovitz
Experience and guile will alway triumph over youth and exuberance.
- MVB (Curmudgeon of FF)
Holden, don't you know that girls aren't supposed to drive to begin with?!
- Rochelle
I am quite possibly laughing my ass off. If I don't lose at least three pounds after this, I want to lodge a formal complaint.
- PENGUIN: MAJOR CAPS LOCK
It can suck to get ticketed when you've made a dumb (innocent) mistake. Especially when you're pretty broke. So being bummed can be an ordeal. But it doesn't mean it wasn't something someone brought on themselves and thus deserved.
- Spidra Webster
I don't think anybody has said it isn't/wasn't deserved...
- Ryan Christensen
Holden, I have a feeling that if Audrey does something like that, Akiva and Rochelle will support her but expect that she learned an important (if not expensive) lesson.
- vicster
What Penguin said, and yes, Ryan, air. out. the. tires.
- Derrick
Nice come back Holden. At some point, just walk away. You have already said like 500 times that you understand how how she feels. THE ENTIRE INTERNET GETS IT. You are super sensitive to the feelings of ladies. Jesus.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
Holden, you're projecting/assuming that it will be a bummer for her...it could be she just shrugs it off.
- vicster
i do it all the time. I use to stick stickers all over my neighbors car for parking in a red zone.
- @CrystalinaB
Sorry I was trying to figure out how this got 55 comments between the time I liked it and 15 minutes later
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I'd call if someone was blocking my drive way. I've had people call on me too, when I was younger. Can't say that I blame them. Sometimes the only way people will learn courtesy is through the efforts of the "grumpy old lady".
- Helen Sventitsky
You guys, it's one thing to have a disagreement, but I think you're really jumping on Holden here in a way that's out-of-proportion to what he's said on the thread. No need to gang up on him, whether you think the empathy is a bit misplaced or not.
- Spidra Webster
Do you think it's appropriate to try to wish shit on a baby? I think it's pathetic and weird.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
I had just read this and I'm disappointed by the direction this thread went. I agree with Spidra, actually. Flame me and mock me for it all you want.
- joey
Hold on, I'll pass around the tissues so everyone can cry over this.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Reading it after Holden's comments are gone is completely different.
- Rochelle
I'm very disappointed in the behavior of all of you. Tsk tsk. Now a valued member of the community has quit. I don't know how you're going to be able to sleep tonight. You're all terrible people, and I hope some day that people on the internet disagree with you and force you to delete your FF account. GOOD DAY SIR.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
It's because I used the word 'diaperlick', isn't it.
- Akiva Moskovitz
I read it with the comments, I just didn't feel that I had anything constructive to say and I was kind of shocked at the instant pile-on.
- joey
Well, I am sorry if Holden deleted his FF account. But, yeah, he was projecting. He can't possibly know how the teenage girl will react to having the cops called and/or getting a ticket. It was a bummer when it happened to him, but maybe this girl has a different view on life.
- vicster
It's really unfortunate that deleting your account on FF removes all traces that you were ever here. No matter how it happens or why, it is a shame to lose everything that a person has contributed to the community.
- Kenton
Hey, I don't think anyone wanted old boy to delete his account. I can't speak for the others in this ruthless, barbaric mob but I wasn't taking much of it seriously and was just having a laugh, really. He had a choice: he could've just walked away from the thread.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Wait... Holden deleted his account?? Because of THIS? Where's Louis...
- Ken Sheppardson
I'm kind of torn. On one hand, I hate it when people delete their accounts. On the other had, I blocked him so long ago I've forgotten what he looked like.
- Ha3rvey (not Akiva)
Well, the girl moved her car before the cops came so the girl won. Everyone can calm down now.

Screw you guys. I'm going home. /Cartman

- Andrizzle Gizzle
I will never understand the quitters. If you don't like the way a discussion is going, let it go. And if you care so much what a bunch of people on the Internet have to say, good luck in the "real world," where you can't always just walk away from a beatdown.

I'm still waiting for my first beatdown. 3 months in, and nothing but fuzzy-love... *sighs* I'm so privileged.
- T. Brent, technopeasant
Brent: you get what you give. If you pick fights with known beatdown artists like Akiva, you're going to get a beatdown. Whether you can handle it or not should determine how you proceed.
- Bren, Photophobe
from iPhone
Bren: good to know. fact is, I'm with Spidra, Joey and the others... life's too short for this kind of thing. I prefer to give respect, or try to... now, how are you going to proceed?
- T. Brent, technopeasant
I'm going to issue a beatdown! Ha. Not really. I agree with you all, except that I don't think Akiva or anyone else should have to edit themselves for the sake of someone who is clearly too sensitive, and not smart enough to just walk away from fights in this kind if forum. I tend to think the responsibility for controlling what we are exposed to online is our own, not the people with whom we interact.
- Bren, Photophobe
from iPhone
He'll learn... I hope. I've spent much of my adult life taking sensitive young men, putting them in kilts and helping them to be... sensitive young men in kilts. lol
- T. Brent, technopeasant
How fucking classic is this. Rochelle "don't mock my scantron post" and her chubby annoying husband once again assing out. Akiva - you are a little prick, Rochelle - I don't know what scares me more, your mouth or your avatar. Here's to not editing ourselves. ;)
- Joe
Aww, Joe! You try so, so hard. It's endearing! Keep up the good work, lil champ! We're rootin' for ya!
- Akiva Moskovitz
How come assholes with private feeds that I ironically request permission to read the feeds of never ever ever grant me permission?
- Matthew DeVries
You know, I may be an asshole sometimes but at least I'm not a coward.
- Akiva Moskovitz
That is right Akiva, just because you have no balls does not make you a coward.
- Joe
Wow, someone has a hardon for Akiva. Replying to his posts literally 8 seconds later. He's watching your feed like hawk, probably has text messages and lights flashing and triple redundant fail safes to let him know the second you post.
- Matthew DeVries
Joe, just because other people have acted rudely doesn't mean that there is now an open invitation on FF to troll and taunt people. I didn't think it was possible for this thread to be more of a disaster, but I guess I forgot the rules of the Internet.
- joey
Okay. At first I wondered if he was just joking with you. But I guess not.
- Sarah June
Nah, the guy has more issues than a comic store.
- Akiva Moskovitz
BTW welcome to my feed Sarah. As you can see it is full of issues.
- Joe
Joe is and has been a troll. The actions of people in this thread did not activate this behavior in him and he doesn't need encouragement.
- Andrizzle Gizzle
Will actually consist of us moving all of the junk out of the second bedroom so that the next round of floors can begin. Maybe we will take a break for cuddling and a movie.

Well so far today I've been a hair model and received a lovely haircut as a result, spent some time with two friends of mine, and grabbed lunch and tea at Pike Place Market. And the ever-amazing http://friendfeed.com/pattonr... sent me homemade cookies.
I'll take some. It's basically the same...a bob. Just a trim and helping the graduation grow out. I asked to keep the length because I'm trying to grow it out.

I don't like Foo Fighters or Hole or Pearl Jam or any of that stuff. I'm rather glad that I wasn't living here during the grunge thing.
- Akiva Moskovitz
Actually, I really like Nirvana's unplugged cover of Bowie's The Man Who Sold the World.
- Akiva Moskovitz
It doesn't happen as much now but it used to be that when people online learned that I live in Seattle, I'd always get comments like, "Oh, do you know the members of [Seattle grunge band]?" Right, and everyone who works at Microsoft knows each other, too.
- Rochelle
You mean you don't know Dave Grohl personally? WTF am I still doing talking to you then? SHEESH. *storms off the internet*
- tinypants - Hagitha of FF
Nirvana was one of the worst live acts I ever saw. Boring. I do like Pearl Jam, and I did meet Kim Thayil once at a Mariners game... does that count?
- Bren, Photophobe
Yesterday I met someone (at work) who doesn't know *anyone* who works at Microsoft and I admit, I was a little taken aback.
- joey
Being in my mid-twenties and living in Seattle in 91 meant being around all of those people, all of the time. It wasn't difficult to know them. If you drank and smoked pot, proximity was a given. The OK Hotel, The Comet, The Offramp, The Crocodile, The Mecca Cafe. Where else were the musicians gonna go? It's not like Mark Arm was trying to hide from anyone.
- Christopher Harley
Christopher, in 1991, I was 10 years old. :)
- Rochelle
Then you should've known their nieces and nephews, Rochelle! Grunge is all about networking!
- Christopher Harley
I'm with you, Akiva. I liked Nirvana for about a month, then got over it. For me, I was the same way with Pearl Jam. It's not to say I don't like music that came out of that "scene," I'm just not particularly fond of either of those bands. Old Soundgarden was great. Meat Puppets are fantastic. Temple of the Dog is near the top of my favorite albums list.
- Curtiss Grymala
I miss RCKNDY. Sigh. And the Velvet Elvis. I do not miss the Teen Dance Ordinance.
- joey
I was never a fan either. Pearl Jam is also on the list - if you've heard 30 seconds of their music, there's no reason to ever listen to any more 'cause its all the same.
- jcunwired
I saw The Fall at the Backstage in Ballard. Mark E. Smith in BALLARD!
- Christopher Harley
I liked RCKNDY! But my second home was Satyricon in Portland. That's where I first saw Nirvana (pre-Bleach, as I recall) and I think it was there that I saw Mother Love Bone before Andrew died and they re-formed as Pearl Jam. And I saw Soundgarden when they were pretty brand new at Pine St. Theatre in Portland.
- vicster
The only difference between Cobain and Vicious is that Sid had the forethought to save the rest of us from his wife.
- Jeremy
Nice, Vicster! Now Satyricon is such in name only. New owners for the last 6 years or so. Way different vibe. The Pine St. Theater became La Luna but is now offices and condos I think. It's definitely not a live music venue but back in 94-99 it had the best shows in Portland.
- Christopher Harley
@Christopher. Sixth Avenue changed so radically after they extended the bus mall and lit it all up LOL! I was at the Dharma Bums show the night of the "Satyricon Riot". That was the beginning of the end of Satyricon (even though he didn't sell for a few more years)...George had just had enough. :-( The other venue I miss is Blue Gallery. LOVED that place!

"On the morning of 12 October 1978, Vicious claimed to have awoken from a drugged stupor to find Nancy Spungen dead on the bathroom floor of their room in the Chelsea Hotel in Manhattan, New York. She had suffered a single stab wound to her abdomen and apparently bled to death. The knife used had been bought by Sid on 42nd Street and was identical to a collector's knife given to punk...

I was really partial to Nirvana. I was just the right age for Bleach and Nevermind to hit me hard...growing up in Seattle didn't hurt either. I actually went to Cobain's vigil at the Seattle Center and shed a tear of true sadness. Later Nirvana and any other grunge leaves me cold though. I couldn't care less about StoneMotherTempleChainGardenJam. I went straight from Nirvana into Electronic Music. Heh.

I almost felt bad when I realized I only liked one of their songs. Do like Soundgarden tho. The rest can go.
- Matt Hilton
Is this a grunge backlash? Like the disco backlash of the 80s? I was young, stoned and wild in the early 90s and grunge was the soundtrack, for better or worse... Favourite? Soundgarden, by far... Rusty Cage was good enough for Johnny Cash to cover. ;)
- T. Brent, technopeasant
I still like that grunge stuff, actually. (The techno/trance/etc. stuff that hit at about the same time, too, in fact.) It derives in part from punk, so it matches my musical sensibility. Disclosure: from near Seattle.

The new live DVD is okay... may need to watch it again, but the re-release of Bleach is golden.

I was really surprised when, after first installing it on my laptop (this image is from my desktop) without an external monitor, I hooked up the other monitor and saw this. Fedora has support for background images that are...

- Andy Bakun
It's a pretty solid background image, consider it is the default, so I kept it.

Notice the lack of icons? I always turn that shit off, I don't usually use a graphical file manager, and I save all downloads in /tmp, so I don't need to clean anything up, like ever.

The other day, I was running xmatrix and glmatrix in the background, which was neat, but kind of distracting when trying to read text on a terminal all day. Actually, I rarely even look at the desktop, it is usually completely covered with terminals and a web browser. I should consider a tiling window manager, rather than an overlapping one for that reason.
- Andy Bakun
Julian, I am tempted to get rid of the 1600x1200 and get two more 1920x1200, and go totally widescreen.
- Andy Bakun
Bump. Witness my desktop again, you small desktop plebs!
- Andy Bakun
Heh, this wide desktop is kind of an easter egg, the Wikipedia entry for Fedora just shows a sample desktop that just features the "birds" on the left side. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...

Trader Joe's carries crumpets (or at least they used to) so you can make a side-by-side comparison. To me it looks like what Australians call English muffins and what we call English muffins are the same.

Dear video game developers, film studios, and television producers: I do not have time for all the games, films, and tv shows you are making! Please redirect some effort into creating more hours in the day. kthxbai.
Besides, the &@$+@%*$ cancelled Dollhouse, so it isn't like their not adding time when they shouldn't!

I just saw that. Jerks. Not that I didn't see it coming, but still. I don't have time for everything they're making, but they need to cancel the stuff that I just kinda sorta like, not the stuff I love. They're doin' it wrong.

Oh, and yeah, I do prioritize. But that just means my backlog of "things I want to do when I have time" is getting larger and larger, and I'm not probably gonna have time to start catching up on it until I retire. And think how much MORE stuff is going to get released before then?! It's so overwhelming.
