"Jumped the shark" hasn't just jumped the shark, it jumped it around spring '99.

As for Xeni, sometimes it does feel like I'm the homeless guy and she's talking about how comfy her couch is, but at least it's interesting. And if I don't like it, I go somewhere else.

I was thinking... and it almost seems that burning man was one of the first "flash mobs"

The Lindy Hop? Twenty-Three Skidoo?

I just wanted to know if Gorgar is any relation to Freemdoom. Because that's really cool if he is.

So is Flaming Guy a satellite version of the Ibiza Summer Experience (http://www.20six.de/SBD)? I mean, we're talking about real sophisticated rich folk with time and money to blow, and, oh, Blow (or x or whatever else you crazy creative types use to get all philosophically insightful).

"The 'love' is not something that you can keep, hold smell or touch; it is only something you experience." - right from the Ibiza page. Wow!

I saw a guy wearing a great t-shirt in the Castro (San Francisc's gay mecca) recently. It had the burning man "logo" but said "Flaming Man." Awesome.

Burning man is teh sux.

You are a fucking tourist.

Even if you are naked, high on whatever, and in the desert, you are still a privileged, pampered tourist.

Nelson's question is significant: When did Boing Boing comments get so bitter?
