There's also a subreddit
While the following are only tangentially related, they are some of my all time favorite things on the internet:
1. The perfect mash up of
Call Me Maybe and NIN's Head Like a Hole.
2. African Grey Parrot sings let the bodies hit the floor
thank you for the (admittedly loose) pretext to revisit them.
this youtube duet of LCD Soundsystem and Miles Davis has ruined the regular song for me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=huEtJw7pfLk

This is the name that'll be displayed next to comments you make on kottke.org; your email will not be displayed publicly. I'd encourage you to use your real name (or at least your first name and last initial) but you can also pick something that you go by when you participate in communities online. Choose something durable and reasonably unique (not "Me" or "anon"). Please don't change this often. No impersonation..
Note: I'm letting folks change their display names because the membership service that kottke.org uses collects full names and I thought some people might not want their names displayed publicly here. If it gets abused, I might disable this feature.
If you feel like this comment goes against the grain of the community guidelines or is otherwise inappropriate, please let me know and I will take a look at it.
