If you’ve visited the site or looked at the RSS feed during the last twenty-four hours there’s a good chance that you saw one of a menagerie of errors. Sorry about that. This post will try to explain what the hell was going on as well as point out some changes to the way the site works.
I was debating joining my mythical compatriot the Macalope and adding my own frothing rage over this vilely offensive pile of syphilitic jackal dung when I made the mistake of meandering down into the comments. I was not surprised to find the usual collection of “hur dur Apple is so evil” bullshit, but what really caught my eye was a magnificent example of the art of utter what-the-fuckery by some jackass with the handle of “joblot”.

It’s been a while since I’ve regaled you with pictures of my finger. Behold what almost 2 months of healing hath accomplished. Considerably less disturbing pictures after the jump.
Ok boys and ghouls, these things are starting to annoy me almost as much as they are probably annoying you, so this is the last update about my hand for a while. Enjoy the pictures after the fold and keep the comments about my flaky skin to a minimum; you try keeping a digit under a bandage 23 hours a day and see if you don’t need a little moisturizing.
