Hmmm

Filled up with petrol yesterday and the price was down 4p a litre from the last time. This is good, although it's still ridiculously expensive. I'm cautious about it, though, as I still have no idea why it went so damn high in the first place.

In other news... it's the weekend! I'm very tired. And warm. It was about 88F in the living room this morning and over 100F in the conservatory. Obviously it's not that hot outside.

The moderation queue is your friend

I read a blog called Shakesville, which is feminist, and which has some really interesting conversations and thoughts posted. I like it muchly. Yesterday I discovered what happens when a blog like that just leaves its doors open to anyone at all and doesn't police the moderation queue. They did that on purpose just to have a bit of fun with the trolls, and the reaction is here. The post is about a new game from Sony for their game console thingy called 'Fat Princess'. And yes, whatever vile thoughts that title put into your head are probably accurate.

So, the post now has 1886 comments and counting. Now you know, kids, the stories of internet trolls are all true. All of them. Thank the FSM for moderators.
