"I'm just trying to swallow my outrage at your placement of an image on the front page."
Metafilter goes wild after a front page post displays a tiny red moving dot and Mathowie declines to delete it. Keep scrolling.

Wow... that thread really went everywhere, didn't it?
I wonder why I don't peruse Metafilter more. Posts like that perfectly fit my ADD addled mind.
I am in awe of Metafilter. I have read it for years. I have an account but have maybe commented twice and can't imagine daring a front page post. It's a very self-enforcing operation. They've built up their values, and they really mean it. It's fascinating to watch. For writing, I prefer my own domain over here. But I really adore those people.
LOL! How addictive--even though my eyes are going nuts.
I like the black kitty with the wicked red--eyes?, the factory one, and the Hitler eating a--wooden?--watermelon.
The fire-butt one is just whacked, though--as is the one featuring Stewie, or whatever his name is.
Alan: Speak English! I don't do SF series.
Wait--never mind: My translator just got back home.
"Battlestar Galactica: the best show on television."
Well, at least I recognize the name.
(Hangs head in shame at all my unhip glory.)

The canine answer to Cylon kitty?
I liked the cylon kitty too.
Are we going to start prepping to be the five millioneth visitor?
SteveR - You inspired me to click on the SiteMeter link and I've been browsing. The kinds of google searches that bring people here never fail to fascinate me.
I hate to ridicule the silly ones out in the open, though. I'd feel terrible if the poor person were stumbling through the comments and suddenly felt naked.
There's a Cylon kitty? Damn, I missed that! Going back now...
There's a real feeling of catharsis.
I guess my browser can't handle the page.
