Dear commenting person on the internet
(yes, you, the one who just got deleted from my friend-list. (the irony!))

If you see something you don’t like on the internet then please look elsewhere in the future or don’t use the internet at all.. but otherwise please f*cking get used to it that some people might have a different opinion than you or even disagree with yours (gasp!) and please don’t try to correct this by posting worthless comments on facebook…
go to 4chan.org or youtube or to some other place where your unqualified input is valued.

And get a life while you are at it.

Yours sincerely,

The rest of the internet.

well, I guess I can afford to hype Ubuntu a bit – after all I am a part of it since release 5.10 (‘breezy badger’)

So: Go Linux – what are you waiting for?

And for the kids: go Qimo :)

(a) those belonging to the Emperor
(b) those that are embalmed
(c) tame ones
(d) suckling pigs
(e) sirens
(f) fabulous ones
(g) stray dogs
(h) those included in the present classification
(i) those that tremble as if mad
(j) innumerable ones
(k) those drawn with a very fine camelhair brush
(l) others
(m) those that have just broken the water pitcher
(n) those that look like flies from a long way off

Schweizer Präsident entschuldigt sich für Festnahme von Gaddafi-Sohn

Der Präsident der Schweiz, Merz, hat sich bei der libyschen Regierung für die Verhaftung eines Sohns von Staatschef Gaddafi entschuldigt. Im Gegenzug habe das Land zugesagt, den Marktzugang für Schweizer Unternehmen wieder zu öffnen, sagte Merz bei einer Pressekonferenz mit Libyens Ministerpräsident Mahmudi in Tripolis. – Gaddafis Sohn war vergangenes Jahr in Genf festgenommen worden, weil er zwei Hotelangestellte geschlagen haben soll. Libyen stoppte daraufhin seine Erdöllieferungen und zog geschätzte fünf Milliarden Euro von Schweizer Bankkonten ab.

Ah, I just love community-driven websites :D

…dauert einfach zu lange.. kaum habe ich mal kurz Zeit und Motivation, bis ich die ersten 2 Saetze geschrieben habe ist die Inspiration schon wieder dahin. Doof. :(

Vielleicht sollte ich Twitter nutzen?

Naja… wieder mal aufgeschoben bis unbekannt. ;)
