One Day to Live (via perfect-tragedy)
No offense to whoever you wrote this about, but this is a stupid waste of your last day on earth. I can think of many other things you could do, most of which could involve the eyeball person, that wouldn’t feel like you were just sitting still, staring creepily until you dropped dead. You could go to the batting cages, or have a nice dinner, or you could play scrabble or make a pie. Basically, anything but literally standing still, staring at someone for 24 hours straight.

The nepotism in Brazillian football must be stopped. These ‘Silva’s can’t hope to compete with the Xavi’s of the world.

“the spread of electronic commerce for everything from music to groceries is part of the increase in empty store fronts on shopping streets, leaving a series of Citi branches, ATT outlets, and Starbucks that repeat at regular intervals, like scenery in a Hanna-Barbera cartoon. Even when the current recession ends, it’s hard to imagine vibrant re-population of most of the empty commercial spaces, and it’s easy to imagine scenarios in which commercial districts suffer more: consolidation among pharmacy chains, an uptick in electronic banking, the end of our love affair with frozen yogurt, any of these could keep many street level spaces empty, whatever happens to the larger economy.” —
The plague of empty commercial spaces in Indianapolis is a testament to our cavalier attitude towards our seemingly endless local geography. It is sickening to see every empty retail spot that isn’t sitting empty be filled by the banking industry that itself is waning and due to be replaced. All the while, new structures and strip malls pop-up a block away, because it was that block that caused those businesses to fail.
“Err, what? This is the equivalent of Foxconn, who build the iPhone, notifiying Apple a couple of days before launch that they’d be moving ahead and selling the iPhone directly without any involvement from Apple.” —
Nice analogy. Except the Apple is an actual computing product design and production company and near as I can tell TechCrunch is a blog. At the end of the day, they produced exactly what they should have: a lot of hype and overexposure, but alas no final product. Perhaps they should have worked with a company that is actually capable of executing on this type of thing or even better left it to those companies to produce and design. This seems like the kind of thing TechCrunch is quite adept at pointing out to others.

So that thing on the left is a laptop stand that attaches to your steering wheel. According to Amazon, if you’re interested in such a thing as a device that facilitates computing while driving, you’re also interested in toys (infant toys no less). I assume that is because you have children and while you’re endangering lives, you might as well keep the little ones entertained. The last item on the right is the It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia box set. That is clearly up your alley because you are a character from that show and devoid of a moral compass and common sense.
This is the only time ever in the history of the world and Internet that these things have ever been ‘related’.
