We’re talking fans not fins
Neither dorsal nor ventral
In the fans department
We demolish supercentral
The Net’s our instrument
We’re not talkin’ castanets
The jamminest surfers
All crew with Nasty Nets
etc
Urban Dictionary on “Beef”:
3. When rappers aren’t good enough lyricists to have fans or just want some publicity, they will copy Tupac and Biggy and set up a beef with another rapper.
Their audience of mainly wannabe gangsta rich white folk love this because if they meet another wannabe gangsta who listens to a rival of their favourite rapper, they are allowed to exchange poorly thoughtup insults such as ‘yo mama’.
4. What’s beef? Beef is when you need two gats to go to sleep
Beef is when your moms ain’t safe up in the streets
Beef is when I see you
Guaranteed to be in ICU, one more time
What’s beef? Beef is when you make your enemies start your Jeep
Beef is when you roll no less than thirty deep
Beef is when I see you
Guaranteed to be in ICU, check it

Two sites worth looking at (if you aren’t already) are camille.pb’s research blogs, which coincide with her graduate studies in France. Blog 2 (current) / Blog 1 (closed)
She is interested in software art but also gives props to default-trolling punks.
The content of her blogs tends to the theoretical but they are nice to look at, with lo-res graphics, GIFs and ASCII art. She has posted on NN (the shaky GIF thread) and I appreciate her thoughts on the interview Paddy Johnson did with Michael Bell-Smith and me, specifically about being “irresponsible in front of the computer” (jodi’s phrase).

Update: I added some more thoughts to the post. –tm

Marisa took down her shaky ad GIF before I could dig this one out of the archive. (It’s OK–I like the concision of the fart post now)
Do others have vibrating ads on their hard drives? I’d like to see them.
