Back in January I ran a Greatest Hits roundup for my pre-Aard blog site. Now Razib has taught me how to check which Aard entries are the most-read ones via Google Analytics. Many are of course carnivals, and the rest are heavily influenced by who has linked to them, but anyway: here are the ten most-read non-carnival Aard entries since 1 January.
- Wish I Could Do That In Linux
- Scandinavian Attitudes to Nudity
- Subway Beggar Retaliation
- Are Humans Polygamous?
- Jim Benton on the Atheist / Agnostic Issue
- Modelling the World in Real Time
- Circumcision and Clean Syringes
- Book Review: Stenger, God, the Failed Hypothesis
- My Eugenics Project
- A Forest Fire on the Outermost Isles
The main lesson here is probably that Scandy archaeology isn't so hot. I should go for controversial issues that touch upon the most cherished beliefs of my readers: things like religion, sex, nudity and, of course, above all, Linux.
If you can combine topics of interest in a single article, that would be great. The next time news surfaces about **** atheist Linux-using squid who practice Scandinavian archaelogy, you should get right on top of it.
*** Hmmm, your nanny filter will not let me use the word "n-U-d-E". It's not fair to filter out words you use yourself.
Go ahead and use any lewd expressions you like, I regularly check the junk filter and resurrect stuff that shouldn't have ended up there.
Finding comments too harsh and too crude
Martin's censoring words such as "****"
So, will I get away
with my thought of the day:
"**** ********, you *********** prude!"?
Volunteers sought to be stung by jellyfish
That unfortunately rules me out. Maybe you could have a go, and blog about the procedure.
Pär, you know I always say, "That Pär, he's a ***** ******* and he don't ***** a **** until it's *****".
Tegumai, luckily I am amply equipped with protective hair.
I thoroughly enjoyed reading that selection.
One of them though pissed me off as it always does. Circumcision is a crime. It is child abuse. It is a sexual perversion. Just to make my point clear.
A doctor who practices it, except in the one percent of the cases for medical reasons, should be prohibited from practicing medicine. An imam or a rabbi that does it should be jailed as any other pervert child molester. Is raping a child more/less serious than mutilating it?
I don't give a rat's ass about cultural traditions. Suppose some cultural group said "let's cut off a finger" or "let's cut off an ear"; it is our custom.
I agree. Isn't it funny that tattoo artists have better professional ethics regarding kids than circumcisionists have?
