Maybe it's the something young inside us all that embraces the ever-enticing brew of hops and fellowship, a nation of glorious crackpots with their booze-fueled dreams

Hacker Chic
2000-02-23 12:20:10
Man, it's all about the CRAZY HACKER CLOTHES! Wear lots of them, and then hack things real hard! Hack hack hack!
I gots to say, I dig this Jinx Hack Wear. I think I might be turning into a HACKER GROUPIE or something, because I'm crazy for hackers nowadays! I read Hacker News Network and Packet Storm and all that shit! Go, speed hacker, go!
I think what I dig about HACKER hackers is that they're not WHINEY, like Jargon File-style hackers are. Jesus, man, all you have to do is read some of the POOR POOR ME stories by Jon Katz of Slashdot.org to get PHYSICALLY ILL with bad, dumb, wimpy JF-hackers. Everybody picks on geeks, and they are all sad.
Snap out of it, you fuckers! Go break things! Set off bombs! Keep the Man busy! Write EVIL SOFTWARE, not WHINEY POETRY!
Oh, so, anyways, Jinx Hackwear. It's got great stuff to wear when you are breaking into the COMPUTER CORE from a SUBWAY STATION and Penn Jillette is trying to stop you! You can be all cool in a "GOT ROOT?" T-shirt or a "CARPE NOCTUM" jockstrap or something. OK, I'm not sure if they have jockstraps or not, but it'd be cool if they did!
Go try on some HACKER CHIC! It's the next big thing! Really!

Poor Metallica. All they want is to continue to put out the same weak "Heavy Metal" they've been churning out since the "And Justice For All" days? and make gooey wads of cash in the process. The problem is, people aren't buying their bound for the heavy metal scrap heap, over-produced, uninspired, tired crap. And let's face it, their various commercial endorsements won't pay for the lifestyle they've become comfortably accustomed to. Resorting to lawsuits makes perfect sense, when you need spending money. But just one lawsuit isn't going to pay their bills. So, to aid Metallica, I've composed an open letter to the boys in the band, with suggestions as to whom else they might sic their lapdog lawyers on... (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...)
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. (More...)
Hooray! At long last, a NEW Spocktail of the Week! Kid-tested, mother-approved! (More...)
I just came across this coolio essay by Pigdog Journal Science Editor binky wedged between two staves in the back corner of the submissions barrel. It's on the origin of the cyberbilly and is definitely de rigeur for any serious student of this fascinating sociological movement. (More...)
The days are getting longer and, as the man says, the nights are getting HOTTER! Lick your finger, touch your ass and go *Tschssh*, cause the damn SUN is out now! And of course that means it's time for a refreshing Spocktail that meets YOUR NEEDS for a delicious booze cooler at affordable prices. (More...)
