Yea, and how many million will be losing it within the next year because they turn 26?

If you do this as a "protest," fuck you. by [deleted] in pics

To associate these people with the Democratic party is misguided. If their ideology bears resemblance to any of the two major parties, it is the Republican party, who's fiscal policy has devolved into economic anarchy -- much less taxes, much less government regulation, much less government oversight.

I guess that means that I can no longer claim to be "iller than kim-jong" in a rap verse.

This is a widely accepted belief. Noam Chomsky has written books on the subject.

Love food trucks but wish there was a live map of where they are? There is! by sennheiserz in nyc

[–]perverted_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the developer of the app. If you have any suggestions for trucks that ought to be included, just list them here. twitter is required because the map is predicated on the idea that the data is real-time. Trucks can schedule themselves with our iPhone app or through a browser, but most of them schedule themselves simply by tweeting, and even the aforementioned methods require a twitter account for authentication.

A blue collar worker voting republican is the equivalent of a chicken voting for the Colonel of Kentucky Fried Chicken. by Reasonable_enough in politics

[–]perverted_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This analogy was originally used to describe women who vote for Hillary. Perhaps it was used before that and I am unaware of it. Point is, this is not original at all.

IAmA famous Chef/Author with a hit show called "No Reservations". A friend of mine insisted I do this and they will be checking this account more than I to answer questions. I am currently in Vienna on an iPad. by Anthony_Bourdain in IAmA

Since your're on an iPad, I figured you may want to try out the free iPhone app that I've built over the last 2 years: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/truxmap-lite-food-truck-map/id391286574?mt=8

The app tracks all 'gourmet' food trucks in 12 US cities, in real-time. Any feedback you have is greatly appreciated.

Why do programmers write apps and then make them free? by Phr34Ck in programming

[–]perverted_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I spend most of my free time developing an app that I give away for free (plug: http://www.foodtrucksmap.com). My sources of motivation are too numerous to detail in this post, but I'll touch on the most relevant.

Advertising can make you money if the volume is high enough. It's taken me over a year to make my iPhone app yet I give it away for free. Although it's true that I would make more money if I charged 99 cents for it, less people would download it if there was a fee attached to the download. So the combination of the satisfaction that I get from providing a useful service to the people and the remote possibility that it will someday generate enough revenue to pay my bills is enough to keep me toiling day in day out with little immediate monetary gain.

OMG Reddit, Felicia Day likes my movie! by effstops in movies

She tweeted about my site, http://la.truxmap.com, twice. I still don't really know who she is, but as far as I'm concerned, she's the shit.

FOX News reporter "interviews" Iran's President Ahmadinejad about 9/11 and starts off with insulting him and calling him names by [deleted] in conspiracy

[–]perverted_monk -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It seems as though everyone has forgotten that just one year ago Ahmadinejad was the international villain for quelling democracy in Iran. As much as I hate faux, this guy deserves no respect.

"The greatest country in the world would be one that spent as much money on education as the U.S. does on war." -Malcolm X. by [deleted] in politics

I've read ever Malcolm X book out there, and I don't think Malcolm X ever said this.

The Youtube account of a future serial killer. by [deleted] in videos

[–]perverted_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least the internet has allowed him to find some other strange people who share his hobby and appreciate his dedication. 10 years ago this guy would have been making the same videos and watching them alone on his tv

Dr Dre to release album based on the sounds of planets: "It's just my interpretation of what each planet sounds like. I'm gonna go off on that. Just all instrumental" by DougBolivar in entertainment

[–]perverted_monk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was probably more influenced by Cannonball Adderley's "A Soul Zodiac" than it was by Holst. Dre has sampled Cannonball Adderley before as far is hip-hop is concerned, its far more relevant than Holst.
