Piling On
I know I'm guilty of piling on about Cory Doctorow's excitability, but this latest one is a doozy. Some guy got stuck in one spot of the Haunted Mansion at Disneyland with the lights on and felt compelled to post a boring, 5-minute, herky-jerky, lamely-narrated video of it to YouTube. This happened to me on the Indiana Jones ride the last time I was at Disneyland and it was kind of interesting for a little while but mostly it's just being stuck on a ride. Cory was a bit more impressed than I was:
Hot damn this is a kick-ass piece of video -- the Mansion with the lights on, it's like a cross between seeing your parents having sex and catching the hand of God rearranging the laws of physics while your back is turned.

Adam, be nice now.
Well, I'll give him his props: about once per day, Doctorow manages to find something pretty interesting on the internet and lets me know about it.
Dude. You'd think Cory Doctorow would have gotten stuck inside a ride with the lights on before. I always forget that those NorCal kids live effectively as far away from Disneyland as Midwestern kids.
I mean. When I was 8, it was cool to see Space Mountain broken down while on the Peoplemover. And it's still a little neato. But FIVE MINUTES! Shit, at five minutes, I'd just hope I have a book in my purse and we didn't try to cram three grownups into our Doombuggy.
