Snubster

Scotty Bomb over at Ten Thousand Monkeys points out an intriguing new site, "borrowing" from the Colbert Report: Snubster. There, you can create lists of people/things that are On Notice, as well as Dead to Me.

Colbert is a fine guy to steal ideas from, and that's as fine an idea as any. But the thing is, you don't really need Snubster for this. I can create On Notice and Dead to Me lists just fine on my own. And now, that's what I'm going to do.

This is a very preliminary list; I'm not going to spoil it by listing everyone at once. Plus, I'm too tired to think much about it right now. But let's go.

Guy who stole the University Cup: you're On Notice. Theft is not cool, and theft of championship trophies is especially not cool. I admire your balls in just picking up the trophy and walking out, but still. Bring it back soon, or you'll be Dead to Me.

Producers of the new Battlestar Galactica: you're On Notice. How dare you make me wait until October to find out what the hell the Cylons are up to?

The Edmonton Oilers: you're On Notice. This whole "meekly slipping into the playoffs only to inevitably get swept by Dallas" thing is not impressive. Pull it together and give me reason to get excited.

The Gateway: you're Dead to Me. But I hope we can still be friends.

Perfectly able-bodied people in SUB who wait for ten minutes to catch the elevator from the ground floor to the second floor: you're Dead to Me, just like your brains are to you. Seriously, it's bad enough that you're too lazy to climb the really obvious set of stairs that many of you walk past on your way to the elevator anyway, but with the incredibly bad SUB elevators, taking them up the one floor invariably takes significantly longer than taking the stairs. You're dumb.
