Moby Prefers Goats-Brand T-Shirts

Wednesday, December 07, 2005 - 10:57 AM

A few readers have written in to mention that popular music sensation and tea salesman Moby was spotted rocking out in a Republicans for Voldemort t-shirt at Mercury Lounge here in NYC the other night. We've got some pics of the concert, courtesy of BrooklynVegan. More pics after the jump.

I think it's safe to say...

That that is badass. How can Voldemort possibly fail with Moby on his side?

If you need more celebrity endorsements, on page 181 of Why Do Men Have Nipples? [amazon.com] Mark Leyner proclaims, "I love goat and all things goat."

For those unaware, Mark Leyner, the splendid author of fine literature like Et Tu, Babe [amazon.com] and The Tetherballs of Bougainville , writes with "the copulatory abandon of the headless praying mantis" about visceral tattoos, self-surgery clinics, and egomaniacal self-puffery. For me, his nearest literary comp is Our Favorite Stripper's classic Readme columns [goats.com], but with a manifold increase of the grotesque vocabulary and meglomania, while retaining all the funny.

Speaking of which, i still maintain that Jon's Readmes are better than the comic strip, but apparently i'm the only one and thus he's continued down the wrong creative path. Sigh.

The closest thing to Mark Leyner in webcomics is Overcompensating [wigu.com]. Jeff started the strip not too long after I force-fed him some Leyner books. I Was A Billionaire Teenage Psychopath [topatoco.com] is also good for folks looking to get that Leyner vibe.

Hmmmm....looks like Phillip is testing something out on the system? As I write, all of the posting above are moderated as...NORMAL!

Way to go, posters above me! Print out this page quickly and show it to all medical staff who may have any doubts.

The same thing is happening at MG3. Phillip might be trying to fix the karma wonkiness over there. Twice in the past week, the following has occurred:
A moderator posted to a Goats thread in which I had received upmods, so that my Goats karma went down. Shortly thereafter, I checked my MG3 karma and found that it had gone down by exactly the same amount. And none of my posts over there have been downmodded. Weird stuff.

One is the result of the other.

I'm reworking the mod/meta-mod/karma stuff to try and figure out why the MG stuff was acting weird. In the process I'm back-porting a lot of the slashcode [slashcode.com] improvements from the past few years into what was there. I had made a lot of changes when I first implemented it (to make it make more sense for what we were doing), so this is taking a while. This permeates a lot of the code, though, so expect a few ...weirdnessse.. while I go through it.

Plus, my work schedule tends to be from about 19.00/20.00 -> 00.00/01.00, so I tend to miss a few details by the time I'm getting to the end.

My favorite has to be the "Score: 3, Normal"s

Those are awesome. It's like being rewarded for being normal!
