Coole Menschen

Warum Kiefer Sutherland großartig ist:
The first tattoo he ever got, he narrowed his choices down to the Chinese character for strength and Mickey Mouse in a space helmet, before settling on the former. He once heard that some college-going 24 fans had developed a drinking game in which you have to down one shot for every time Jack Bauer says, "Damn it," which is the show's "fuck" and "shit" substitute. So during one episode, in one scene, he took it upon himself to say "Damn it" three times in a row, "Boom, boom, boom. And that was just one scene. By the end, there had to be fourteen 'Damn its.' And I could just see all these college kids going, 'Oh, fuck!' "
Ze Frank im Interview (von 2002):
A lot of the projects have a humorous shell. It's an easy way to get people involved, excited about submitting things. Like "When Office Supplies Attack," I asked people to send me pictures of them getting attacked by office supplies. Today that's the fourth most popular thing on the site. At one point a few months ago, Office Supplies was getting 30,000 visits a day.
Once I get enough responses, I display the project with little or no explanation of what it is. I set the rule up, run the project, and then strip the rules away. People come to the site and see this huge page of pictures showing people being attacked by office equipment, and they have no idea what it is.
Bruce Sterling erzählt cleveres Zeug:
"If you make up a new word for something it's like throwing a wet match onto wet grass, most of the time it just goes out immediately ... but it's getting to the point where you can watch it happen. It used to be that you could invent a word, it would sort of fall out of your mouth at an event like this and maybe people would tell one another about it. Now you can actually tag it and track it, you can word search it and see who's using your word."
