Very poor but at least they are refunding and those who bought the so called signed edition get to keep it for free.

More interesting to me though was on that same link there's a story of a joke cracking bar tending robot. Which made me wonder if Tep will get his very own Flex.
The temptation to abuse a Flex if you owned one would be immense. Im-mense.

Really shitty of whoever decided to go ahead with the auto-signatures. I assume Bob was minimally involved but he probably had to *ahem* sign off on it at some level so either shame on him for actively thinking it was okay or for just rubber stamping something without paying attention. A slightly sour note to what has been a really excellent year for Bob.

On the OTHER hand, I'm only minimally heartbroken for trying to bilk the sort of people who can casually drop $600 for a signed book so, ultimately, whatever.

I can't imagine he was involved in any of that. A business manager with the power to approve all that shit would have been doing all that stuff. As much as anything those people are paid so the artists doesn't have to bother with that annoying crap.

For future reference, no $600 signed books as gifts for Flex. Red Lobster gift certificates it is.

It's because of that scene that I don't think about the Pistols and spitting, but of expectorating.

Up there with: I just want to understand this, sir. Every time a rug is micturated upon in this fair city, I have to compensate the owner?

Sorry for sharing something so normcore, but here's an SNL guy doing impressions of Bob Dylan singing Jingle Bells throughout different phases of his career (Dylan stuff starts around 6:10):


I'm dying laughing

Sorry for this being from essentially the grossest podcast imaginable, but one for the "bob is a sweetie pie" files, here's Jewel recounting her time opening up for Dylan early in her career:
