    @B-low: That would be blumpkin pie, which takes the regularly depraved blumpkin, adds a pie tin, and plenty of coprophagous shenanigans. Basically, 1 girl 1 tin. I think this is made worse by the fact that there are actually names hitting below 4 syllables to identify these acts. #techpumpkins

    Not awkward at all, BLam. Quite cool even. I was particularly interested in his comment where he mentions that he doesn't take a lot of pictures but seems to want every camera. I feel the same way, and will take it a step further and say I am no good at taking pictures, but want every camera. That said, I also really want an M8.

    Am I the only one that feels gdgt is sort of like a Sonic and Mario team-up? There was that sense of rivalry (or maybe more so among the readers/commenters than the sites themselves) back in the day and then Block and BLam got this cool site together.

    I can't respond to a red comment without approving it, but I can assure you that NanStork will never, EVER, have a comment account at Giz.

    Do we yet have a mocking name for these idiots who will remain in red for all of eternity? I like the objects of my disdain to have a name.

    I feel the need to apologize. Blam, I'm sorry for teasing. Your home is lovely and the odd bit of clutter adds charm. You seemed slightly tense but otherwise it's a wonderful video.

    This apology also goes out to Matt Buchanan, who is patient and puts up with a helluva lot of dumb ribbing from me. I call him "ginger" with love.

    That said, from what I gather, you value rugged over performance. Hmm.

    Really good vid Blam. You looked pretty smooth, just enough "awkward" not to lose your Nerd Cred. Pretty cool gadgets, and I am delighted to see you have gotten a PC, a Dell no less! I know you love your MB, but its nice to see some balance in the reporting, which lends you even more cred.

    Great job.

    This is like one of those "Buffy-Angel Crossover Events", only it's a "Lam-Block Crossover Event", or maybe a "Gizmodo-Engadget Crossover Event", perhaps a ... okay, I guess that covers it. For all the "slob-hating" around here, he did get the attention of Ms. Katayama, so maybe it's workin' for the man, yunno?

    Don't worry Lam, you should grow out of that awkward phase in a few years. Plus, that beard may fill in a bit as well.

    @egreenwood1: A cod themed restaurant sounds like a good idea. But I think trout would be a better fish if only because the name would sound cooler in a restaurant's name. Like maybe "TROUT!" or "Twist and Trout" or something.

    @MrHaroHaro: Cod is historically a more important fish, from the Vikings to the American settlers. Maybe the place could be CoD- and cod-themed.

    It'll be great if they can find some way to make him funny, and find medication to treat his awkward and disturbing twitchiness.


    Other than that, I'm so totally on board....
