“I'm not superstitious in my normal daily life but I get that way about writing, even though I know it's all bullshit. But I began that way and so, that's the way it is. My ritual is I never use a typewriter or computer. I just write it all by hand. It's a ceremony. I go to a stationary store and buy a notebook and then fill it up.” KnowsWayWritingUseHandsNormalComputerStoresDaily LifeRitualBullshitCeremonyNotebookTypewritersSuperstitiousStationary Author:Quentin Tarantino
“There is nothing - no program, no hobby, no vice, no crime - that does not 'create jobs'. Tsunamis, computer viruses and shooting convenience store clerks all 'create jobs'. So that claim misses the plot; it applies to all so is an argument in favor of none. Instead of an argument on the merits, it is an admission that one has no such arguments.” DoeJobsMissingCrimeComputerProgramArgumentClaimsVicesStoresFavorsShootingMeritPlotHobbiesConvenienceVirusesAdmissionClerksTsunamiComputer Viruses Author:Chris Horner

“I've been recognized every now and then. It's always in computer stores. It's something like brain associations, because I'll be in the grocery store and nobody will recognize me.

“In the future, every human will have a digital model of their body stored in computers. When someone needs a new shoe or a new bra or a new prosthesis or a new brace, s/he'll just fabricate it from the digital model themselves and then the device or article will be delivered to the home without even having to go to a retail store. The shoe, the bra, the brace, it'll be the person's apparel, the person's device, no one else's. It'll be exquisitely comfortable and functional. So this whole notion today where we have sizing to fit across humans is just utterly absurd.” NeedsHumansPersonsWholeHomeBodyTodayFitComfortableComputerModelsNotionShoesStoresAbsurdDigitalDevicesArticlesRetailBrasBracesApparelHuman WillFabricateNew Shoes Author:Hugh Herr
