I don't think the issue is the Youtube video -- the issue is it being commercialized, with him being turned into a "character" that's being marketed in a wide variety of ways, none of which he has any control over... People do have some right to control their own identity and stop people from selling it and otherwise capitalizing on it...
YenLee, that FAQ is just referring to objects mailed to that company... saying "I won't sign everything people send in the mail" is quite different from refusing autographs requested in person... Especially in an age where most people are asking for autographs to create something to sell on eBay, rather than for personal reasons...
I visited Montserrat in 2003, two weeks after one of its eruptions and spent an hour flying over the island (from Antigua)... Really amazing, I've never seen anything like it. In addition to the destruction that you see in the photos linked from this article, when I was there the destroyed half of the island was littered with dead cows...
Ouch! It jumps back and makes that weird face after being poked in the eye by a blade of grass. This is a weird cat torture video masquerading as funny... Only funny if you hate cats.
If you're going to do that, why not count every element of each tattoo that isn't explicitly touching as a separate tattoo? Or each pinprick of the needle as a separate tattoo? :P
I think 90% of people, and 100% of tattoo artists would say that if a tattoo spreads across multiple parts of the body, especially if it was done in the same session and the two halves go together (or in some cases are even required for the other half to make sense), that these are a single tattoo, not multiple tattoos... I'm mostly just teasing because I enjoyed the post, but this should be labeled as 10 tattoos.
Sweden is not paying for garbage!!! Sweden is efficiently recycling and processing its garbage, so it's got room in its landfills, and is charging other countries to process their garbage for them. Either I can't read or the OP and commentors can't read...
Presumably the person's kitchen contains more than this microwave... The microwave is just where the screen is located -- you can still cook in other areas of the kitchen. Apologies for humorlessly wrecking the joke.
I have a 165 IQ. I'm significantly smarter than the average person than the average person is smarter than a gorilla. Those who know me know this is true, and those who know my biography can guess it might be, but even though I went through professional testing, I've never posted proof of it, and pretty much no one reading this has any idea if I'm just pulling everyone's leg. I might just be a liar that got lucky with a few accomplishments that make me seem smarter than I am. So am I making the number up? Exaggerating it? Downplaying it? Basing it on a random flash-based "test"? Or did some psychiatrist that's never met me guess a number based on my life story? Because I'm inclined to say that's where the majority of these numbers come from -- go through any celebrity-stalking magazine and they have a posse of doctors willing to do diagnosis at a distance. I wouldn't put too much stock in these numbers without at a minimum confirmation from the celebrity and preferably something to back it up, be it actual testing (IQ, SAT, whatever) or even just academic achievements -- not that it takes a high IQ to get a degree... Lots of bigbrains drop out, and lots of hard working dummies get good grades. Really, this is just more jacking off over fantasies of celebrities' private lives.
It's very, very silly that this is being called a "trend" let alone something "new". It really drives home how incompetent the world of journalism is, even empires like National Geographic. And I always have to wonder. If they can't get BASIC stuff like this factually correct, stuff that can be confirmed with a simple google search or an email, why should I trust ANYTHING they write on ANY subject?
I have an incurable and untreatable (and extremely painful) genetic condition that's going to do me in soon, and I've considered such a tattoo, especially because my condition involves apnea problems so I could easily be left with brain severe damage if something goes wrong. The problem is, these sorts of tattoos are generally not legal. The doctors have no way of knowing if you, for example, changed your mind since you got the tattoo. Odds are extremely high, effectively certain, that they'll simply ignore it.
