crap blog 101
[Click on image to enlarge/download/print etc. Licensing terms here etc.]
[Bonus Link: "Beware of Lifestyle Immigrants".] No sane adult moves to the Bay Area for lifestyle; they move there because they think they can make money. So, while I think it's nice people like to ski, hike, bike, climb, surf, and golf, I don't care. I want people who are greedy , competive bastards who would move to Fargo in January to make money, and who don't know any other way to work than hard. The rest of it is a distraction. [Thanks, Rick.]

Posted by: Robert at September 24, 2006 4:24 PMPhew ... that *doesn't* look like my blog. My RSS symbol is slightly smaller and on the left.
Posted by: Luka at September 24, 2006 5:55 PMI agree wholeheartedly about the ubiquitous RSS logo. It has become such a cliché and really quite an unnecessary feature. Anyone using a half-decent browser (Safari, Firefox, Camino) will tell you that subscribe-able RSS is build right into the application.
(That said...I've been trying for weeks to figure out how to remove my quite tiny RSS logo from my WP-powered site.)

Put down that stone... slowly....
Now turn around. That's right. Walk right back into your glass house and have a sip of wine.
That looks exactly like my blog :)
And indeed, my personal blog is very useless.
Cool. I'm honored.
