iPhones: yay or nay? (Ed. note: title change from "iPhones: Yay or Nay?" on 3.24.10)

we're having one so I'm making a thread

Season 5 starts tonight. Fierce. Tranny. Hot mess. Hot tranny mess. <object type="application/x-shockwave-flash" data="http://widgets.nbc.com/o/4727a250e66f9723/487e83fdb1868773/47d460413e365638/c7f12234" id="W4727a250e66f9723487e83fdb1868773" height="283" width="384"> </object> Woot....

I love me some goofy or weird animated GIFs. Post 'em here, but don't post anything overtly, solely pornographic. Some of them are just clips of things that are fun, some are original or remixed/edited stuff. Here are a few ideas:

Use this thread when you are about to post a thing, but you don't want to muck up a thread with your bullshit. I'll go first! So I wrote this out in the DARK KNIGHT thread. It's a fucking mess. You really get inside my over-explainy head: Here's what I posted instead:

I've been doing some interviews for the Austinist website in advance of this month's Austin Psych Fest 3 (a yearly event coordinated by The Black Angels). The line-up is pretty intense this year. Anyway, I thought some of you might like some of these bands & the interviews. Sisters of Your...

There are a lot of things that make me laugh. And a lot of them I would not have a problem explaining to others why I find them so funny. Then there are things that I can't believe I still giggle so much everytime I hear it. One example of this is an old joke I heard on Conan. I don't remember...

I think it's time we had an official thread for things that go "holy shit" in the night. <iframe width="480" height="390" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/n5Gn8jt55LQ" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe>

They Might Be Giants' new album, "Join Us", is the recording that their fans have been waiting 20 years for. As the band turns away from the family-oriented projects that dominated their output in recent years (and garnered them two Grammy nominations and a win), on "Join Us" we find the band has...

http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio4/history/inourtime/index.shtml Someone posted this show, IN OUR TIME, on AST a long while back... I figured I'd ressurect this thread with the link and a suggestion for the shows: "Alexander Pope," "Wittgenstein," & "Negative numbers"

I like catching parts of conversations out of context. Here's two I caught recently. 2 guys, 20ish walking down the street: "Dude, I totally partied with Yo Yo Ma." Not sure if he was bragging about hanging with a celloist or had a stutter and was trying to insult the other guy's...

May as well start the thread for this. <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/sXGI9suAyBI?feature=player_embedded" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Nominations will be announced Tuesday, January 24th. Ceremony will take place Sunday, February 26th.

Has this been a thread before? I'm sorry. Anyways, I trust many opinions here. Anyone have any good suggestions for Instant netflix movies?

Ok, so I never do this, but there is a grant my capoeira group is trying to get, and we are neck and neck for first place out of 60 other proposals. First place is a thousand dollars, second place is you're fired. http://healthy.maker.good.is/projects/capoeira Just a few votes actually will...

Why did James Brown say ow if he felt good?

Show some love... Mezmorized's avatar is fabulous. Sex Shofars? NICE! And Sparkiepop's is pretty fantastic. If not a little judgemental. And also super-adorable.

Aw man, I had seen previews for the show when it first came on. I never got a chance to catch the actual series but then after hearing about the Emmy win for Cranston, I finally DVRed all the episodes when they ran them in a marathon on Friday. I've watched 6 out of the 7 eps and man... this is...

I've been making electronic music for some years now, maybe I'll post a track or two later if this thread doesn't instantly die. But I am more interested in hearing some of the music you have written. Are you in a band or do you prefer music creation as more of a personal journey? Post your tracks...

Alright, who's watching? My girlfriend and I have gotten sucked into it via Netflix and now there's a new season airing. Just by its very nature, it has more colorful personalities than pretty much anything else in reality TV. And they may use hot glue, but these bitches turn out infinitely...

During the discussion of the Chara/Pacioretty issue in the "Sporots" thread, I almost felt awkward continuing the conversation because it's clear that most people here are bigger basketball fans. So I thought it might not be a bad idea for the handful of us here who follow hockey, the red-headed...

Official "Reincarnation" Music Video <iframe width="640" height="360" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/hq8XQP3G-0c" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Special thanks to Martin Starr & Honus Honus (Man Man) for helping with the green screen effects

I think this show deserves a shout-out for kicking so much TV ass so early in its run. FX has done such a good job with dark, edgy dramas that I have been pleased with the straight-ahead pleasures of this show: charming lead character, funny dialogue, sexy dialogue, smart dialogue, and people get...

When online news stories have a comments section, I have a hard time resisting reading the comments, or at least the first few of them. I'm partly intrigued by others' opinions on things, partly amazed by the stupidity and ignorance demonstrated by society as a whole and partly entertained by the...

Food thread! I finally tried Angelo's Pizza in Baltimore this weekend... I had heard so many things about it. People were always talking it up like it was the greatest thing ever invented. Well, they're right. For like 4 bucks you get the largest slice of pizza I have ever seen. Around 18...

We have a movie trailer thread but not a general movies thread, so here tis. Take that video games! For any and all discussion of past, present and future movies that do not reside elsewhere on the board (i.e. Dark Knight). What'd you see this week? What have you been meaning to see but can't...

Is this a pointless thread? I don't know - I just thought we should have a place to post awesome stuff like this: http://www.hiphopsite.com/2010/06/02/uncle-luke-accused-by-daughter/ Someone's looking for some publicity! Anyways, post any newsworthy newsies and any music that you are...

"It's not just the right of the person who speaks to be heard, it is the right of everyone in the audience to listen and to hear. And every time you silence somebody you make yourself a prisoner of your own action, because you deny yourself the right to hear something." ‎"I don't want to have to...

Comic Con is quickly approaching! They have the full guest list up now which includes the creators of Chew and what inevitably will be Batman/Dark Knight Rises panel. This will be my first Comic Con but I'm so excited for it.

Asking for a friend.

HBO's new show "Game of Thrones" starts in a few weeks. It looks amazing. I usually hate fantasy, but this series was good. I'm on book 3, and can't stop. <iframe title="YouTube video player" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/BpJYNVhGf1s" allowfullscreen="" width="640" frameborder="0"...

hey, anyone on twitter? i know i'm late, but i'm looking for people to follow and be followed by. also, use this to suggest some really good twitters i guess? http://www.twitter.com/dboz

Post things that legitimately make you cry. This obviously hit me much harder now that I know my 17-month old will be learning this lesson someday. I cried so much at this, I almost made cry-face.

I didn't see a help thread for help for podcasters and since there are so many of us on here, I thought I'd pick your various brains for the solution to my question: So I'm finally ready to launch my new sans-KUCI website. I'm looking for 250-500mb of storage per month (easily expandable if...
