This site is a little project that lets me make fun of some things and sense of others. I use it to think a little more relationally without resorting to doing actual math.

can someone help me understand black monday’s response to todays indexed??
January 5th, 2009 at 3:13 pm
Maybe, but not me. I see things like that all the time. I assume that they aren’t humans, but little programs that make posts and try to lure you to their home sites. It’s kind of cute, in a ‘they-try-really-hard-and-get-nowhere’ kind of way.

@yefet
That’s exactly what I was going to ask.

@yefet = follow the linky. A self-reference to a forum post.

Too bad the boobs in the top two circles gather more attention and a bigger share of the bailout (whether from the goverment or sugar daddies) than the ones in National Geographic.
The odd-looking comments are pingbacks or trackbacks, automatic posts made by the blogging software (or what have you) on another site when a poster there links to something here. It’s useful for exposing where other people are talking about the same thing being discussed here. They (the person linking to here) may also be hoping to generate some traffic to their site.

Indexed…
I love Indexed! It took me a second to get this one…
Yesterday’s was good too, she drew the graph and had the readers label the data points!
Jessica has a whole book of these called indexed (of course).

The WSJ boobs should be on the bottom. On second though they don’t even deserve a circle.

Oh, that one is perfect.

I think a lot of you are confusing “Wall Street Journal” with “Wall Street employee.”
The former is quite economically reliable. The latter is diametrically opposed.

(Just saw Jared’s post but I had already written the following so posting it anyway
@yefet and @bri:
What Black Monday posted wasn’t a comment. In fact, Black Monday didn’t post a comment at all. What you see is what is called a trackback. It’s a way to display what websites have linked to this particular blog posts. Many blogs display comments and trackbacks separately, while others, like Indexed, display them in the same place. Check out http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trackback for more info.
@ISammael: Indexed is not referring to the WSJ as the “boob,” it’s referring to what’s found inside the WSJ, in the same way it’s referring to what’s found inside Playboy and National Georgraphic, which of course in themselves, are most definitely not boobs.
