I'm writing a rebuttal video. It's called "Seriously Though, You Should Change."

The Internet is up in arms today about an article that has been making the rounds talking about how due to shifts in the Earth's axis, all of our horoscopes should be changed.

Uh, huh…  In other news:

• Bigfoot is 6 inches taller than previously thought!
• The Loch Ness Monster is actually Irish!
• Women who get sawed in half have more well adjusted children!
• Jesus could also turn water into a number of varieties of scotch!

All nonsense.

Mashable reports that on the 4th of July, Wikipedia — "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit" — went down for a number of hours.

There's been a lot of speculation about how this happened, but I think I've stumbled up on the answer.

Someone edited the entry for "Wikipedia" on Wikipedia to read like this:

Wikipedia is NOT a free,^[3] web-based, collaborative, multilingual encyclopedia project supported by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation.

Unable to process the definition of itself, the site immediately crashed.

A similar incident happened in 2005 when a prankster changed the site's entry to read "Wikipedia is my balls," and the entire site became replaced with an image of my balls.

That time it wasn't reported that the site had "gone down."  Instead, it had "been sacked."

So, you think you can just play around with powerful psychoactive, psychedelic and illegal drugs like LSD and everything will be fine?

"I have a strong ego and a sharp mind.  I can take it," you blather.

Well let this be a lesson to you: Drugs change you.

They change you into a long-winded, self-centered hippie douche who can't even let your buddy bask in the glory of scoring some tail.

We get it, dude: You're annoying.

I fear change.  I'm like deeply, psychologically disturbed by it.  I was not made to adapt: God hardwired me to avoid even the slightest fluctuations in my environment like some endangered Amazonian toad.

So this new YouTube design freaks me out.  Is it just me or does it seem like everything is just floating about in mid-air?  There are no borders holding anything together, as if an influx of illegal alien videos could just pour on over at any moment from another window.

And what happened to the 5 star system?!  That system was the only way to know if a video was of any quality!  Anything less than 4 stars I refused to watch.  Now it's just a free-for-all!

Okay, that last part is sarcasm.  But I still hate the redesign.

I have.

The year was 2002 and I was drinking a boatload of Ketel One.

What to post on today? I'd been digging around the web for about an hour and nothing had piqued my interest.  Scrolling down my list of links I thought to myself, How about Boing Boing.  Haven't been there in a few days.

Upon entry, I thought I had the wrong site.  What happened to the clean uncluttered look?  That iconic 8-bit-ish lettering??

Gone!  Replaced by what you see above.

Boing Boing tried to explain away the new look in one of yesterday's posts.  But I'm hurt.

Remember in season 7 of Perfect Strangers, after Larry and Jennifer got married, when they bought that large Victorian house, and then Balki and Mary Anne moved in?  What the fuck was that all about?!?  Larry and Balki don't live in houses; they live in apartments!

When McDonald's dumped their "It's a good time for the great taste of McDonald's" slogan back in 1988, I was 9 years old, and I vowed never to eat at the Golden Arches again.

And you can be damn sure I gave up Pepsi and their flip-flopping logos long ago.

Sorry, Boing Boing.  You're banned from my buzz list!

…alright.  I didn't mean it, Boing Boing.  Why must you hurt me like this?!  I don't take change well.  …  ……
