They say Hell is full of good intentions, one of which is my intention of writing a weekly post aggregating the B-grade stuff I post to Facebook. There are simply too many better things to do. Anyway, here’s some stuff I shared lately:

Liam Neeson in the A-Team movie! I guess that’s what they call “Fuck-You money”. ···

Isn’t Roxy Music’s More than This the most depressing song ever? I find ostensibly depressing music à la Portishead or Tindersticks somewhat funny. But a hint of sugar in a song kills me. ···

Writing this the day ChromeOS is out there in the wild, I’m more convinced Nicholas Carr’s arguments in The Big Switch are right. Which means the future hurts. ···

Geocities was shut down in late October, but never fear! Archiveteam is going to rescue your shit! ···

Mr. B the Gentleman Rhymer’s history of Hip-Hop. I mean, Chap-hop! ···

Nick Cave’s cover of I Put a Spell on You. ···

Hackety Hack seems like a wonderful tool for learning how to program Ruby. It’s a shame that, as it is, some of the listings in the tutorial are incorrect and cause errors, disrupting the whole idea. But it’s still interesting if you know how to get you way out of trouble. ···

Pixel is the ultimate example of webcomic minimalism. Why won’t the author just do away with the ‘drawings’ and call it “short funny dialogues”? ···

I don’t travel much. Reading this page felt exotic. ···

The Times’ list of the 100 best films of the decade is… polemic. I can’t agree on anything. I would never even consider one of the first fifteen. ···

And a drum battle between Gene Krupa and Buddy Rich. ···
