If I had an unlimited number of $5 bills for purposes of creating sock puppet accounts on Metafilter, here are some that I would buy: Lurking Wedgie Shit Threader SuckPoppet Eponymous Police Ooo’er. I already have the last two. More to come, I’m sure…
The best marketing gimmick the folks at Pandora Radio have for Pandora One? Regular old vanilla Pandora radio. Bought my subscription just a bit over a year ago and in a cost cutting move elected to not renew the subscription. How bad could it possibly be? Dumb question. Really bad. I renewed.
