Malcolm Gladwell's Stickiness Problem - http://gawker.com/5432233...

"It's tough out there for science writers following in Malcolm Gladwell's footsteps. Not because he's so good, but because he's so wrong."

I''ve enjoyed Malcolm Gladwell's first three books, but it does sometimes feel as though his supportive anecdotal evidence is converging a bit too tightly on an indisputable conclusion. Read with that in mind, I still think they're worthwhile reads.

RT @imadnaffa: Smith & Wesson Shares Plunge As The Gun Boom Comes To An End http://www.businessinsider.com/smith-a...
Wonder if the gun nuts realized that Obama's not going to take their guns away, or if they just ran out of money to buy more.

Do you like suede?

I LOVE suede. Prefer to wear it in shoe, purse or jack form. I did have this blue suede skirt with awesome details that was ruined at a party.

Yep. Have a pair of purple and a pair of blue suede shoes.

Walmart Fails because they're associating toys with Christmas, when in fact there are much more valuable layers attached to this Holiday.

The 15 Dumbest Superhero Retcons Of All Time - http://io9.com/5405696...
"Superheroes can escape almost any trap... except for 50 years' worth of backstory that's dated, self-contradictory or gets in the way of a story. So what do you do? Reach for the retcon! Here are 15 examples of retcon fail. Comics have a grand problem of continuity. Long-lived characters have been starring in multiple monthly titles for years, amounting to thousands of issues, not counting guest stars, crossovers, and tie-ins. And every single one of those issues counts. With retroactive continuity, maybe our heroes fought a clone; or it was a dream; or the whole thing took place in a parallel reality; or someone didn't die, and instead someone took their unconscious body and healed them. Sometimes it's handled well, with good characterisation and a soft touch. But mostly, it isn't. Here are some of the worst, most ham-fisted and generally clumsy ways of dealing with problems in the history of your character."

The internet reminds me that I normally live in a bubble of politely sublimated racism, where we may all have racist thoughts from time to time, but we are ashamed of them. When Alex Scoble was talking about FUBU last week I couldn't believe the stuff that came up on a simple Google search for FUBU.

- Alan Simpson
One thing I'm curious about: where are the tweeters from? We're assuming they're in the US but maybe they're not. Not saying that racism is OK as long as you live outside the US, just saying that the concept of what is racism might be different outside the US.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
ZOMG BLACK PEOPLE OH LORD OH DEAR LOCK THE DOORS.
- Danny Minick
Alan, I know they exist (I have relatives who prove me wrong every time I fall complacent and think racism is getting better). So many of the user pictures in the images look relatively young - and I know I fall into the bubble of thinking younger people are less likely to act this way. Guess I've been smacked in the face with it again.
- ÉllbeeÇee
Another situation where "like" should be "share" or some such thing. Everyone should see this ridiculousness, but hard to click like.
- Kenton
Tina, his user profile says he lives in upstate New York. As for the "concept of racism" being different elsewhere: vocabulary, maybe - I recently educated my parents on current US terminology - but saying that there are too many [Black people] on [internet service] is racist everywhere I can think of.

So, let me get this straight: just because the blog owner is black, it's OK to create a warehouse of critical, if not negative, opinions based around the Twitter Trend of the BET Awards?

they appear to update Wordpress every other minute...or that's what it seems to me.
- Cassandra
Agreed. But at least now they've allowed for the 1-click upgrades which only replace the needed files and not the whole WP install anymore. Hang in there :) Oh, and 2.9 is already on it's way. Looks additive though, i.e. it shouldn't really break anything, thank goodness. That is always the greatest horror...
- Alex Schleber
2.8.5 came out three weeks ago. What took so long? Anyway, 2.8.6 is just a minor security update, there's no fundamental changes to it. Should be no issues between 2.8.5 and 2.8.6. Also, the security issues it addresses only impact you if you allow other people to register to your site. And one of them requires that they be able to upload files *and* that you have a misconfigured Apache installation. So the threat level is pretty low there.
- Otto
Fantastico still hasn't even gotten to 2.8.5 yet w/ my service provider. The auto-update plugin w/ Wordpress never works for me, so I usually just wait for that.
- Fleagle
Since I am scared, It obliges me to save the data-base(s), deactivate the plugins .....
- bellegarde-webb
I use the DB Backup plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend... and then just do the one-click upgrade. Works every time. Of course, on my own sites, I run the nightly betas, so I'm upgrading every few days to play with the new features. :)
- Otto
Yep. I'm familiar with it. It never works for me.
- Fleagle
Remember if you changed something manually in sidebar.php, single.php etc. using Appearance > Editor tool (such as adding adsense blocks) then DO NOT auto-upgrade! It will overwrite those changes!

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?

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.

Who came back? When I got unsubscribed from as part of mass unsubscribing, I returned the favor, so I might be missing something...

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.

Ten Questions To Ask A Man Before You Agree to Marry Him - http://deadspin.com/5404219...
"It's been my experience in life that, while men are more likely to bitch about the institution of marriage, it's WOMEN who more often end up regretting getting hitched. It's practically a ritual these days to be skeptical about marriage if you're a guy. You hear comedians and columnists and God knows who else bitching about being tied to one woman, yearning to be free to drink and ogle ass as they please. Almost all of that is an exaggeration. I may goof on being married from time to time, but I'd rather be chopped in half with a machete than NOT be married to my wife. That would be horrible and shitty. But women. How many women do you know that rushed into getting married because all their friends were all getting married at the same time, only to later find out that their husband is actually kind of a dipshit? Because all guys are conditioned to be skeptical about marriage, because we're trained to be reluctant about the whole enterprise, we're 21% choosier about whom we end up...

It is very much about expectations, pro or con. Of course, negative expectations can also become a self-fulfilling prophecy. (I'm less certain about whether positive expectations can work that way, but I'd like to think that is true, as well.) I guess I'd vote for 'realistic' expectations, but then, after being married for thirty years and now separated, I'm not sure whether I know what the means even now!

Is it OK to like Chris Brown's new single featuring Lil Wayne? - http://www.slate.com/id...
"If your stomach turns a little at the thought of ever hearing Chris Brown's voice again—or, for that matter, his name—get ready for one nauseous winter. The R&B singer, who pleaded guilty in June to beating his ex-girlfriend Rihanna during a February argument, is set to release his third album, Graffiti, in December. Last month, the lead single, "I Can Transform Ya," hit radio, and the follow-up, "Crawl," came out last week. There's something audacious about Brown's return, and not just because it took a scant three months for him to slide back into album-promo mode after entering his guilty plea. Brown has been exposed in the Rihanna saga, after all, as more than an abusive boyfriend. Promising affection and pleasure in his music but brutish and violent in real life, his love oil turned out to be snake oil: An R&B loverman best known for a domestic-violence conviction is an insupportable contradiction."

The NYP reports today that Ecko's finally lost control of his own brand. He was forced to sell off a controlling stake in Ecko, middle America's most familiar hip-pop fashion line in order to raise cash to pay off creditors. It'll help the feeble brand hobble on, but it won't be his."

Amy- And best of all, it would look like it was an iTunes bork so she'd never know :)

Deep down in my heart of hearts all I ever wanted to be was loved by someone... okay just kidding. I actually try to live as vapid a life as possible and gauge success by the number of times I get to consume bacon before I pass on to the great dust heap in the sky.

The best part about that is the profile picture. This is a man who's SERIOUS about his Gaga.

I like listening to The Monkees
- Carlos Urrutia
I really like strong women like Sarah Lane. Except when her podcast first comes on and her shrill scares my cats away (true story).

I guess Veronica doesn't like the monkees.

I watched Jem.

@billheslin Mine was real.

Jason - nothing wrong with that, Now I? I can still sing the full theme song to Jem. (glamor and glitter, fashion and fame)
- Matthew DeVries
Yes Michael, as I said, it would be nice, and actually weird if everyone really gave their True confessions...and it would be Hollywood gold...
- Bill Heslin
I once suggested going to see "Spice World" in the theater. In my defense, I'd been up for 48 hours...

When I was born I had a stroke in the white matter.
- Michael Weems
Matthew - I hated that they changed the theme song in the 2nd season.
- Jason Wong
I saw the Monkees in concert at the Hartford Civic Center when I was in High School.
- Jim Bednarz
And high school was in the late 80's. Not exactly the music of my generation.
- Jim Bednarz
Despite most of my 'indie cred' music on iTunes, if you were to take a gander at my iLike profile, you'd see that "Since U Been Gone" by Kelly Clarkson is in the top 5 most played in my library.
- Fleagle
One more before bed. I was a huge fan of the Charmed TV series.

- Jerry Perez
Why are all reality shows scripted?
Amber, Random Time Lord liked this
Because people are boring IRL.
- Admiral Anika
But..but this doesn't speak against the authenticity of genre as a whole?
- Terence
Yes, but then again, the idea of heavily edited "reality" shows also seems to go against authenticity, anyway.
- Admiral Anika
A biography has to be edited just as much as a fictional novel. Any medium—a TV program, a book, narrative video—has its own set of base-level demands that tend to be adhered to to achieve conventional success.
