As some of you may know, I was computer scientist before I was a user experience designer. Because I was always on the computer, I was persuaded by an 8th grade teacher to enroll in the one high school computer science class when I entered the 9th grade, and I loved it so much that [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Elevator madness
Believe it or not, I don’t really have anything negative to say about this elevator panel, just that it’s rather overwhelming the first time you see it. But I’ve seen it many times, so it no longer phases me. There are two panels because the elevator has two doors, one on each side — there [Keep Reading…]
Answering Your Questions
I check my blog analytics pretty regularly. I like to know how many people are visiting, coming from where, for how long, reading what, etc. My keyword activity, the search terms that lead people to my blog, is particularly interesting and hilarious. I realize that I have a sultry blog title, and as a result [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Street Lihgting
Look closely. Do you see it? I’ve been passing this lamppost for more than 5 years, and happened to notice this ridiculousness a long time ago. Last week when I passed by it again, I finally decided to snap a pic. I don’t know enough about how these street lights get installed or how the [Keep Reading…]
Why the new Skittles website is ridiculous but I don’t actually care
Skittles is one of my favorite candies. I love opening up a fresh pack, finding one of each color and squishing them together to make a rainbow. It just makes me happy. I’ve been eating Skittles my whole life and I’ve been on a computer my whole life, and yet never in a million years [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Employees Must Wash Hands Before Returning to Work
I found this sign in a Starbucks bathroom. If you’re literate, do you really need detailed instructions on how to wash your hands? 1. Wet 2. Soap 3. Wash for 20 sec. 4. Rinse 5. Dry 6. Turn off water with paper towel And just in case you can’t read or don’t understand the steps, [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: You Can’t Un-Shit a First Impression
I was sitting in a café on University Place and noticed this hilarious sign. YOU CAN’T UN-SHIT A FIRST IMPRESSION Even if you don’t have a fancy suit, we’ll make you look good on paper. The Resumé Hero Resumés and cover letters for real people who want super jobs. I found it ironic that the [Keep Reading…]

Photo of the day: Blankets Kill Grass
NO BLANKETS ALLOWED BLANKETS KILL GRASS Killjoy, man! Way to harsh my mellow. I just wanted to lie out in the park. I mean, thanks for giving me a reason why, but did you have to be so blunt? How about: “Blankets Hurt Grass.” I’d feel a lot better about that. Spotted at Washington Market [Keep Reading…]
Photo of the day: Push to take toilet paper
I snapped this shot inside the spiffy public restroom at Madison Square Park. The restroom cleans itself after every use, a total water-and-soap spray-down of the entire space. So naturally, the toilet paper can’t be exposed — it would get soaked! Instead, it’s hidden behind a trap door. When you press the button, the metal [Keep Reading…]
