Biking and political campaigns!

From last year’s failed roads and transit campaign to today’s waterproof panniers
From a fellow Seattleite, directions for making your own panniers, fenders, and bike basket from corrugated plastic political signs. (Via Apartment Therapy.)

Test.
No fucking way. I have to do this every fucking time? You fucking morons.
Ah. I see user registration is not what we got.
I don’t think we’ll ever register, elenchos…
It’s almost user registration! Just a little more um… er…………….
Meet the new Slog, same as the old Slog.

Hmm, I like that. I wish I’d seen it before I’d bought fenders the other day, though!
Oh for fuck’s sake! This is fucking ridiculous!
You know, in REAL FUCKING DISCUSSION BOARDS YOU ONLY HAVE TO DO THIS FUCKING ONCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
C’mon people, you can do better than this.
Way, WAY better…
I can’t even READ half the fucking “verification words”, ESPECIALLY when they have those stupid, stupid squggly lines running through them….
FAIL.
MAJOR. FAIL.
Another test.

Great idea for all those corrugated auction/foreclosure signs in my neighborhood.

dude what
No more linking to URLs in the commenter name field: FAIL.
Bikeworks runs a couple of workshops this time of year to make fenders, etc. out of lawn signs. Tons of fun and a great place to support (they are free but you can always put a few bucks in the can).

YAY bikes

that’s from bridging the gap, not roads and transit.
Kent Peterson will kick all you in the balls for fucking up his homage thread.
At least we don’t have to wait ten minutes while our comments get posted.
that’s a lotta lotta big boobs
Kent Peterson can get cancer and die after being hit by two semis and a truck for all I care.
How about making the comments popup still have a status bar at the bottom, I kinda like to see where links go sometimes, you know.
GOD there aren’t even any frames because of your greedy stupid fucking ads.
Look Ma, no CAPTCHA!
(Until the spammers find us.)
CAPTCHA is gone
In Soviet Russia, spammers find YOU.
Har.
Er wait…
Does it still take 30 seconds for “preview comment” to do something?
An internal server error occurred. Please try again later.
The load time to see the comments is ass.

Ohh this is fun!
In the sun!

I can’t say I’m a fan of this either.
Errr….so I typed something in the box, hit preview, then edited and erased that and wrote in a completely different comment, then hit submit…but what was posted was the original comment. Weird.
Anyway…What I really want to see implemented is this:

I want to play with the comments too…
Oh dear God. Thank you so much, Slog, for enabling animated gifs. That’s so much better than user registration.

jrrrl is now my favorite commenter.
asd, PARTY FOUL!
[deleted]
But at least there’s no pesky spam, right?
…Oh, Jesus.
Sigh. New comments are going to reveal the fact that blockquote is about the most complicated thing I know how to do.
Yikes. This is going bad places fast. Let’s pink it up a little at least!
*tada*
Here is one of the most insightful political opinion pieces I’ve read recently:
http://www.pnwlocalnews.com/south_king/
“I have always been a risk taker. So I called back my friend and agreed that I would work on the campaign. During the course of the campaign, Doug Jewett was called a racist and anti-black. As usual, I was called Uncle Tom, etc. Fill in the blanks.
I was shocked at first because I had been a loyal Democrat all my life. But since I decided to work for a Republican, and I was black, I was immediately told that I hated my mother and didn๏ฟฝt like black people. I was also threatened, which shocked me. I began to wonder, why all the hatred?”
PS: #7 — Please stop impersonating me, it’s really rude.
Does the background of this comment page appear magenta (but only at the top half??) to anyone else? Whose genius idea was this, anyway?
That was me. Now I’m going to try to cover up the next commenter with a kitten.
Aww, wook at his widdle pawwws.
I can’t believe they didn’t see this coming. Those poor, poor tech-savvy youths.
I can understand why you’d remove the nasty images, but why’d you get rid of the music, yo?
Aww, the man is shutting down our party. :[
Sorry for the mess guys! It was fun while it lasted.
Guys, give us registration and we promise we won’t abuse it like we abused all of this in less than 10 minutes of finding it.
@78: I’m glad they got rid of your comments but not my reply to them, so now I look crazy. Awesome!
I can’t believe nobody saw this coming.
*still can’t believe
@82
Oh hellzya.
[deleted]
hmm, this thread isn’t off topic at all
@84: Oh, I figured, but jrrl posted a picture of a kitten, to which I replied @74. I normally don’t… do the thing with all the Ws in my words, I swear.
OK, no more nasty abusive images, no more music, etc–just don’t bring back CAPTCHA.
Here’s the kitten because I miss it.
@91 Awww, there it is.
La-da-da-di-da-daaaa-da-daaaa!
i disabled all images from geocities jrrrl. Slog disabled all flash objects. fucking pussies.
Wait, people still use Geocities?

Now I wanna try it…
Yeah, it’s not looking as good as the old one
…and sure enough, it didn’t take my edit. I was trying to say that at least Firefox is auto-completing my info now, so that helps a little
SURPRISE!!!!!
butt sex!
hmmm
at least OS-X and keychain/autofill seem to work okay.
but the whole concept sucks – not that i actually comment that much but this really is sophomoric.

Stay on topic, guysssssssssssssssss
Test?
Testes.
Testes, testes…left, right.
Is this thing on?
I like kitties. They are super cute.
