Bad Craziness at Impossible Speeds!!!
1999-08-21 23:45:15
It's of VITAL IMPORTANCE that you check out badcraziness.com IMMEDIATELY! DO NOT PASS GO! Do NOT collect two hundred dollars, bastardo! The time is now! This is the moment in which we can DO!
Eric Richardson is the d00d who made all this funky ass software such as ethreads and like that. He's cool! We like him. Master Squid threatened to gun him down with an Evil Black Rifle at one point because he was using the "badcraziness.com" domain, which, like, we figger is probably by RIGHTS ours, but after initial evil feelings and federal mediation, we're one big happy bad crazy family.
FEW PEOPLE KNOW that the term "Bad Crazyness" or some other horrendous misspelling comes from the Rathead BBS listing in, like, MicroTimes or Computer Currents or something back in 1989 or whatever. I'm not sure which mag or which year, but it was definitely in there, and it's been what GUIDES PIGDOG into bad craziness at impossible speeds for more than a decade.
Where was I? OK, yeah, like, there's this badcraziness.com. The badcraziness people do a pretty kick-ass web-log, and they use the groovy ethreads software, which makes it even better. And they like Pigdog, which I'm like that's my only criterion for a good site nowadays.
OK, so, probably a lot of readers have noticed that I'm getting worse at writing these link articles. Like, I say something, then I say something else, then I forget what I was talking about and get bored and yell at you to go read the actual other site. I'm sorry that I'm getting predictable.
Anyways, we're at that last step, so go check out badcraziness.com. Here are some exclamation points to show that I'm serious: !!!!!!!!!! Be sure to click on the Pigdog Journal banner ads in order to put yourself into an infinite HTTP loop.

A Day in the Life of a Beverotologist
It was starting to look like a very boring Saturday, trapped as I was in the suburban wastelands of the outer Bay Area, so I called my Able Assistant (AA) and proposed that we perform some Spocktail field tests. For some time I've been working on creating the quintessential cinematic beverage and even tho' SMRL does most of its testing during nocturnal hours, this seemed an opportune time to roll up the sleeves of our labcoats and get some science done. While the beverotology creation tested this day (The Neurotoxin) must be deemed a success, this article focuses more the journey of the experimenters, rather then the science of beverotology.

During a magnificent sunny day in a fast receding autumn, the Spock Science Monitor reporters once again blew the playa dust off of their computers and covered the 2002 Burning Man Decompression – held every year just east of Portola Hill in beautiful San Francisco. Both an afternoon and evening issues were released to the unsuspecting crowd of freaks attempting to in some small way experience the euphoria of the playa – if but for a brief afternoon far from the desolation of Northern Nevada.

About 14 years ago when I was on a road trip and stopped in Seattle, I was invited to a party. At this party there were these little tiny glasses sitting in a flat-bottomed bowl of ice. Thin cylinders about an inch in diameter and 4 inches tall, with thick glass at the bottom. Into these were poured frozen AKVAVIT... also known as the water of life. (More...)
Paranoid Strippers & Psychotic Crack Dealers (Tales of Christmas Eve)
Christmas day, for the last 17 or so years has bored me. I find that the real fun and excitement always takes place on Christmas Eve. Every other year, it's the excitement of the metaphorical hunt instead of the kill. Otherwise, it's just plain bad craziness. (More...)
