What's this?

Who's leading the conversation?

This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user has on the current conversation. The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera). Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the left, in their corresponding group. Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

My god, it was a fricken sticker. Guess they have to be safe then sorry.

Wow. I'm sure it seemed funny to put that sticker on a bike (I'm laughing), but that's not exactly the brightest idea.

I was completely unaware that the modern terrorist was in the habit of putting labels on their weaponry. It is good to know that the authorities are on the lookout for these stickers of impending doom!

I think if it would have said "pipe bong" it would have been a different story :)

i used to watch those guys all the time when i lived down there... i always wondered when they would cause a ruckus from people putting that sticker on their bikes... my old college roommate had one of their stickers on his bike and nobody ever said anything... but that was also pre-911... interesting... not a bad band either, although i don't think i would classify them as punk... more like hippie-punk... fun anarchy.

They are actually a terrible band, but it is a funny story nonetheless :)

I agree, the bands "folk punk" music is horrible. Its not possible to walk through Pensacola without seeing one of those stickers stuck on something...
