Mega ginger
with ringlets and added sebaceous secretions. Worst than an Aids infected Ebolan

It's amazing what they could do back then with puppets.
This one just makes the Total Recall bulging eyes one look cheap and shoddy.

What I want to know is whether you considered making the 'i' into a spunking CDC instead

ok, you get better
bit worried that there's a chance that a cultural studies graduate will one day analyse my posts

I wouldn't worry. There is a good chance you are on their ignore list.

Also, good to see you're with the programme and giving a Pact coffee a boost.

Some good points
But I wonder how many likes you've got as a result of posting this. And how good they made you feel...

Nice talk - watched till the end too which is rare on these TED talks.
I am normally shouting MORON!! at the screen after a few mins.
I got over your gingerness after a while and then realised you had some interesting things to say.

Very enjoyable.
I've been using b3ta as an example of how a forum, and even a real society, should operate. We're self-policing. It's something that I think is crucially important in terms of creating a valuable, healthy community. I extend this practice beyond the internet, and into the actual community because I see how much of the self-policing/self-correcting behavior is missing from society.
Instead of being a bunch of individuals just operating independently, what I see is a kind of accountability. It's the one aspect of b3ta that I feel has kept a high level of civility, which seems ironic considering the puerile content.

What, you mean coersive conformity as a means of organising people?
I may have been drinking.

Haha.
I just couldn't help myself. I got all sappy when I saw b3ta up on that big screen.
