stever-:
These are the lowest of the low.
Incidentally, this video that I moaned about in part 1 of my Annoying Vimeo Users series, is still gathering “Likes”. People must be quite unintelligent to “Like” it because it is entirely non-original and so shouldn’t be on Vimeo. Sixty three users have now “Liked” it, and every one of them is clearly a tosser.

stever-:
While I don’t hate this sort of user anything like as much as I hate people who “Like” inappropriate videos, they are still an irritant. If someone has never, ever left a comment or a “Like” on one of my videos, then why the hell have they made me a contact? At least two people make me a contact every week, and in nearly every case they are completely unknown to me. Sometimes I look at...

Now let’s go and gatecrash the party in Afgahnistan.

I made this video in response to this email, this email, and another one that I’m not going to post… They were sent to me after the Director watched my parody about the movie he made.
I re-fuse to take it down, I made zero dollars for my parody, and it was just for fun. Some people just don’t get it. CHILL OUT
Making and selling tshirts + merch
somethingchanged:
What are the options to make tshirt and merchandise designs and sell them online? I know about cafepress - are there any others?
Ideally it would meet these criteria:
- non-sweatshop materials eg for tshirts
- built in checkout and money processing
- they do the shipping
Do your magic, internet!
I hear cafepress do a nasty transfer job on their shirts. I suggest...

WatchDon’t Parody on Vimeo (via Delbert Shoopman)
Making parodies is really bad and you mustn’t ever do it EVER.
Reblog this so all your friends know not to make parody videos.

stever-:
Most Vimeo users are OK, but some are very annoying indeed. I intend to describe and classify the various types of annoying Vimeo users over the next few days.
The type of Vimeo user who annoys me most of all is the type who sees a video which is blatantly in breach of Vimeo rules, but still gives it a “Like”. Take a look at this video:

It is explicitly in...

I received an email this morning from the actual director and producer of Confessions of a Superhero… He wants me to take down my parody, I don’t think I should… here is what I have to say!
Help me out people… re-blog this and send it around…

You should fight this. First you need to get knowledge of copyright so you can exercise your rights. I’m not...

I inject life saving antibiotics into more prudent patients than this deceased man for a living so I share your sentiments.

Penn and Teller take a sceptical look at New Age medicine and its outrageous, unsupported claims of healing despite a heap of evidence that it doesn’t work....

In the Public Interest: Restoring the Constitution... →
“However, there is one important matter that [Obama] alone can address with his legal training and the sworn oath he will take on January 20 to uphold the Constitution. That phenomenon is the systemic, chronic lawlessness and criminality of the Bush/Cheney regime which he must unravel and stop.”

Mystic's Blessing for President-elect
I meant to tumble this nearly a fortnight ago.
John O’Donoghue wrote this blessing. He was an Irish priest, poet, philosopher and mystic. My Northern Irish internet friend Desmond posted this to a mailing list I am a member of. I really like it so I am sharing it with you here.

On Concerns Over Gun Control, Gun Sales Are Up -... →
wreckandsalvage:
This is why I bought a 12 gauge and stock in Remington last week. I think Obama is a great man, but I’m worried about what a liberal congress might try to do to the 2nd amendment.
So which militia do you belong to?
Watchwreckandsalvage:
New Wreck and Salvage Super Long Play featuring “Dance Away the 90’s”. Here are a few moves you can bust out later tonight.
I love these Super Long Play videos. This gives me flashbacks to afternoons watching video clips after the Afternoon Show on ABC TV hosted by Michael Tunn.
What are the dancers wearing?

Noam Chomsky: People should vote against McCain... →
Embedded video of Noam Chomsky:
Chomsky said vote agianst McCain and ‘vote for Obama without illusions’ even though all the elevated rhetoric about change and hope will dissolve into standard centrist democratic policies. That sounds like Chomsky is acquiescing to the status quo and existing power structures. Do beliefs, ideas and concrete policy not matter to him? What about...
Requiem for a Micro-celebrity →
boringloser:
Vanity Fair wrote a really great article about the late Michael Ashe and Channel 101.
When Acceptable TV was not renewed, Hancock and his compadres refocused their energies on Channel 101, where the work was unsalaried but no one could fire them. Hancock decided to revive an idea for a mini-pilot that VH1 had deemed unacceptable for Acceptable TV: an utterly silly show about the...
