    I don't live here anymore. This is now an archive. No messages, please - I rarely visit. No friends requests: it's a waste of your time and I'd laugh at you because you didn't bother reading this.

    I removed everyone from my friends list before I left and given the "share" button's continued flawed existence, I'm glad I did.

    Sain baina uu! Mal sureg targan tavati yuu!

    "Search engine optimization" sounds like something which should make it easier for people who are running searches, but it isn't. It's something which helps peddlers get $$$.

    Why do folks write glowing reviews of sites and Stumblers (even adding them to their friends lists) without giving them a thumbs up? More and more stumblers review loads of their fellow stumblers without giving a single one a thumbs up. They thumb up other sites (mainly their own content) but never another stumbler. Mayhap they think this increases their own status, but it doesn't. It just makes them look very Steve.

    Some sites on SU are miscategorized. This happens when people don't bother or when they select the wrong category for their "discoveries." There are people who deliberately miscat sites, but they are unworthy of discussion.
    There is no reason to thumb down a site and write a snotty review just because it's miscat - you'll look more than a bit Steve when the site is later recat and your review is still bitchy. Just recat it instead - you don't have to hit either thumb button and there's no need for a review - it's far easier.
    When "discoveries" are properly categorized it means Gentle Stumblers will easily find sites which interest them, which is SU's raison d'ętre.

    Trolls think they are master baiters but it's just a mis-spelling.

  • Stupid Evil Bastard: The 1967 Detroit 12th Street riots...

    Rated Jul 23 2007 • 1 review • history, detroit • stupidevilbastard.com

    ... As for me, I benefited both from growing up in Pontiac (which as I said was a lot like Detroit in some respects) and from a job with Michigan Bell (now AT&T) that had me working all over Detroit back when I was 19 years old. I got to see the worst and the best of the city while working as a telephone lineman and it sharply changed the perspective I had of the city for the better as growing up surrounded by so much negativity about the city had obviously colored my views. An image of Detroit that too many people still hold not only locally, but across the nation. I admit I have a soft spot for the town in part because I tend to sympathize with the underdog, but also because the stories I've heard about how the city used to be made it sound like a great place and makes me hope it might regain some of that former glory the way cities like Chicago have managed to do....




    My city.

    It sucks.
    It rules.

    I love it.
    I loathe it.
