As with a low sucking sound it slowly disappeared again, Starbuck still gazing at the agitated waters where it had sunk, with a wild voice exclaimed—“Almost rather I had seen Moby Dick and fought him, than to have seen thee, thou white ghost!”
“What was it, Sir?” said Flask.
“The great live squid, which, they say, few whale-ships ever beheld and returned to their ports to tell of it.”
Moby-Dick, 1851

Guys, FURL sucks. It has sucked for years, and I'm sorry I've been using it. I have switched over to delicious; I would have done this much sooner, but they made it really difficult the last time I tried.
4-21-08 Archives
Uhmm, apparently archives haven't really been working since late 2006. THANX for the heads up guys! They are temporarily fixed, and will stay temporarily fixed until I migrate to new software/layout. I have said some hilarious things in the last 7 years, that future generations will feel lucky I preserved. Go check them out.
1-18-08 new iPhone icon
Woah, it's been 3 years since the last news update! Fuzzysquid now has a webclips icon for your iPhone! It'll automagically show up when you add FS to your home screen. Atom and RSS feeds have been available for a few years now, but I never made special mention of it.
1-14-05 LJ images
Since it seems to be popular, and it's been linked in a lot of different places besides here, I've decided to post the LJ Images page. At least in the news, at least for now. It's also getting some Google ads because you LiveJournal people are sucking up all my bandwidth (35% for that one page!)

Check out what I've been browsing: FURL.net bookmark archive. Not much commentary, relevance, or sequitur—but it's what's keeping this blog from turning into a meme dumpster.

dkuo: you asked her out by EMAIL!?
crankyuser: did you actually retype that, or just paste and swap the ? and !
----------
dkuo: so now, I was having a conversation with the roommates and they were all aghast when I said I would break up with a girl based on a book she owned
dkuo: that's not unreasonable, and I don't care if they think so
dkuo: I mean, you have to have standards
dkuo: —dealbreakers
crankyuser: after a while your life turns into a seinfeld episode
crankyuser: did i tell you about the belching gymnast?
dkuo: go on
crankyuser: i meet this girl at a bar, leave my number, and leave. she calls me a couple days later, we go out, get food, walk around one of the local colleges
crankyuser: periodically she'll just burp every few minutes
crankyuser: like a deep belly burp
crankyuser: no covering her mouth, excusing herself, or whatever
dkuo: ew
crankyuser: we pass some guards, she acts surprised by a burp and excuses herself
crankyuser: i can hear it on seinfeld, "she's a burping gymnast, jerry!"
crankyuser: hung out another time and then i gave up
crankyuser: it was just too gross
dkuo: she did it on the second date too?
crankyuser: one time we were talking on the phone and she burped. i said, "excuse me?," and she said "oh nothing"
dkuo: that's bizzare
crankyuser: I KNOW
dkuo: wait, but was she HOT
dkuo: did she have a gymnast's physique?
crankyuser: she was decent, but not super hot
dkuo: yeah, you would've stuck it out if she was
crankyuser: of course. there's always a threshold where you're willing to put up with shit
crankyuser: like this girl xxxxx i just cut off yesterday
dkuo: oh?
crankyuser: really cool conversation when she's not turning it to herself. very sharp wit. but while i might be ok with flaky ladyfriends, i don't have time for flaky friends
dkuo: indeed
crankyuser: "do you want to have sex? no? ok bye"
dkuo: that should've been what you said to her, but it's not, is it?
crankyuser: no, that is in fact what i said to her last night
dkuo: oh good
crankyuser: i got bonus points because she was talking about details and her boss walked in on her
crankyuser: xxxxxxxx

dkuo: xxx xxxx xxxxxx xx xxx.
crankyuser: it was late in the day and she assumed everyone else had left
crankyuser: but right after some crap about "not being interested sexually" i hear her say "oh hey, i thought everyone else had left"
crankyuser: and after that person went away she was a little embarassed
dkuo: haha
crankyuser: i KNOW
crankyuser: it was awesome
dkuo: good work
