Comment! O! The! Week!
Is it Friday? Already? I guess that means it’s time for a short-and-sweet Comment o’ the Week! I’ve got a whole lot going on this week, as I’m sure some of you have guessed (particularly those who follow me on Twitter and Facebook), so I’ll cut to the chase. I didn’t consider any comments left in response to this month’s…

Comment o’ the Week! MONKEY EDITION!
I’m a bit late but fashionably so, I assure you. Before I get to the Really Big Shoe, I’d like to once again tell you all to get your bums (and your hobos) to Connecticut tomorrow for the live Skeptics’ Guide to the Universe! It’s going to be lots and lots of fun and there may (will) be much frivolity…

2008 Ig Nobel Prizes, and Comment(s) o’ the Week!
As those of you who follow me on Twitter know, last night I attended the Ig Nobel awards, hosted by previous Boston Skeptics in the Pub speaker Marc Abrahams. As always, it was full of unabashed nerdiness, paper airplanes, actual Nobel laureates (Mandelbrot!), operatic interludes, and a goofy theme: this year was redundancy. Yes, the theme was redundancy. The list…

Comment o’ the Week! Where Snark Wins the Day.
First of all, I’m a dummy and forgot to remind you all to purchase your tickets for the 18th First Annual Ig Nobel! It’s happening next Thursday and is sure to sell out, so go. GO! Wendy and I will be there, and if enough of you are in the area, we can hit the bars afterward. Please post below…

Comment o’ the Week, Ye Skeptical Scallywags
Yar, ’tis Talk Like a Pirate Day but I just can’t keep that up through an entire CotW post. Sarrrrrrry. Before I get to the big show, I’d like to make note of the fact that Donna, who has written 250 posts on Skepchick since December of 2006, will be scaling back a bit on posting. From now on, she’ll…

Anmerkung der Woche (Comment o’ the Week!)
Okay, we’re not changing the name of Comment o’ the Week, but the German thread made chuckle so much that I had to give our schnitzel-eating friends one more shout-out. Remember, if you see a comment you like, please quote it and write “COTW” so we know you think it’s Comment o’ the Week-worthy. Don’t write “AdW” because I will…

Comment o’ the Week & an Ever So Gentle Reminder!
Another crrrrrazy week has come to an end, dear skeptical friends! A lot has happened here on Skepchick — some lulz, some spats, a closed thread — but the single most important event was this: I totally added a rad new plug-in that lets you reply to comments quickly and easily! Just click the little arrow by the post number.…

Comment o’ the Outrageously Comment-Filled Week!
I was going to make this another dual-purpose CotW post, but the other topic ($cientology) grew to the point that it was overtaking the CotW and threatening to take up all my pre-NYC time, so look for that as a separate post to come soon. Instead, I give you a quick CotW. This week was insane — we set a…
