the last one is so true...I always see girls in those dresses or shirts and thinking "man, she looks fat, why is she wearing that"

I love reading his rants. Sometimes I wish they would come more often, but if they came too often, it might ruin them.

I hate to be an anal prick, but hes wrong about the CIE LAB. Its a nonlinear perceptual color space such that 1 unit is 1 JND (just noticeable difference). 4 units is 4x perceptual threshold.

That being said, Maddox is a bad ass! :D

That was pretty much the only funny part. Maybe if he had written this, oh, I don't know about two years ago when half that crap was just starting to become relevant (and not already on the way out or past the point when anybody really cared) it would've been funny, but everyone has already made fun of this stuff. That, and I'm not sure where he's thinks its original to make fun of women and stupid fads.

Maybe his monitor or eyes suck, but I can definitely tell a difference in the shades of red on the part where he says the human eye can't tell the difference. Could be my monitor is making the differences more noticeable, but I found that odd.

I actually like his rants ok, but they're starting to get less and less relevant. Its pretty much just beating a dead horse by the time he releases anything. It wouldn't be bad if he offered anything new, but more and more its getting to where its not adding much if anything unique.
