I'm learning so much about Kickstarter right now.

Did you know that currently there are 10 active wallet Kickstarters? Just wallets.

9 are minimalist wallets (glorified money clips), while the last one is an iPhone case and wallet combo. 3 have RFID blocking. 2 have bottle openers and/or various other crap attached.

i actually got one of the aluminum plate ones since they offered custom engraving, seems legit.

There's only 10 left? Money clip kickstarters have been so endemic they've become something of an in-joke.

I... I actually ended up backing this one, I'm afraid. It wouldn't have convinced me on its own, but the other 9 helped.

OhGodWhat?
Frankie Boyle reads Prequel? I am very much pleased at this revelation.
"Of course the real reason that the United States is such a horror story is that they built it on top of an Indian graveyard."

O Frankie

Do they sell steel toed boots? That would be appropriate for the site.
Steel toed boots are kickass.

I dare anyone to dispute that.

So I just opened my brand new second hand copy of Frankenstein, I hadn't really checked it out beyond flicking through the pages to check it was in good condition.

There was something written at the start of the book in a very neat, elegant, hand.

You are as dear to me as the ruddy drops that visit my sad heart.

How ignorant thou art in the pride of wisdom.


Then just above where the text of the book begins.

I'm coming over this weekend.

There's a few other things written above that, that have been blacked out. I'm sort of tempted to try that old wives tale about lemon juice or something, but I don't know...

How absurdly cryptic. Sounds like the beginning of a Horror film.


Enjoy your death.

Yeah pretty much. I've heard there's supposed to be some kind of old wives tale that you could use lemon juice to clear censored text... I honestly don't know if it works.

Under Milky Way Mythology.

Khoisan

The Khoisan people of the Kalahari desert in southern Africa say that long ago there were no stars and the night was pitch black. A girl, who was lonely and wanted to visit other people (edit: at night, in the original text), threw the embers from a fire into the sky and created the Milky Way.[2]

(0.0). I wonder, sometimes.

I'll also throw this (uncited) one in, since i didn't see it coming. Under Australian Aborignal,  "Further south the band of stars that comprise the Milky Way are seen as thousands of flying foxes carrying away a dancer known as Purupriggie."

Another edit: apparently, may siberian people view(ed) the sky as a tent, the milky way being the seam, and it has been called the backbone of night.

Or LSD. I hear LSD can reveal hidden text too...

Wait, you meant REAL hidden text...
