My favourite so far would have to be: "I've got meg, but I'm not a megalopenis"
I've not been doing a huge amount of work on Terminator recently - I have to be honest and say that a lot of the fun stuff is already done and behind us, and it's just got a couple of features before it's as complete as it should be, also it's …
I came across an interesting blog post earlier, in which the creators of some iPhone applications dropped their pricing and asked their users to consider donating money to them if they felt the applications were worth more.

It seems like I have failed utterly to comment on the towering totem of raw awesome that was the Foo Fighters concert on a balmy Saturday in June. To put the event in context, I spent a few hours during the day with Rike, Alex and Simon in Hyde Park …
I am lazy. There's no denying it, it's simple fact. That means, for example, when I am working with pygtk and I look at the API for pynotify, I am sad, because it's a polling API and I hate polling. What I like is GTK's event model. I like telling …
