MetaFilter on Six Feet Under?

It looks kinda like metafilter, doesn't it?

MetaFilter on Six Feet Under? by mathowie.

I can't tell if that's a page of comments from MetaFilter or a Wordperfect-style blue background word processor on the weird guy's screen.

	jdroth says: Is this the largest image you could find? Did you actually watch the eisode in question? And what's Claire doing with a real job? (I haven't seen the show since the first season.) Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	michael.buffington says: Wow. Carrie and I said the same thing when we saw this. But there are no ads. It looks like old Word Perfect or something. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	mathowie says: But there are no ads. If you scroll down a bit on a long comment page, there aren't any ads showing. It was just the way all the weird line breaks looked in the episode, as if they were comments inline on the site. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	mathowie says: Here's a screencap from a HDTV copy, at 200% Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	tomcosgrave says: You could mail the show and ask them? I'd tend to believe it is meFi - the show is known for paying attention to detail, and the guy sitting at the desk looks somewhat like a typical "geek" that would read MeFi? Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	milov says: I tab away from Metafilter whenever people stop by my desk. :) Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	jkottke says: But there are no ads. Perhaps he's logged in? That would be hard core. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	beastmaster says: Microsoft Word in blue mode? Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	jburka says: in the HD version, it looks like it's in a browser window -- the screen's bevel is black, the toolbar at the top is grey, and there's a text-sized white line across the toolbar toward its top... Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	filchyboy says: More importantly what does "Keep Your Disside" mean? Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	Lush says: Note the absence of bright yellow boldified link text though. (Unless that's one helluva long comment.) Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	llamaday says: The girl that sits across from Claire had it on her screen as well. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	Nick Douglas says: What's the toolbar down the left? Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	timmorgan says: Looks like Lotus Notes behind the browser/word processor. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	ParisParamus says: Amazing that someone would notice that. Hilarious. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	rjw1 says: cant we shout "enhance!" at the image until it shows us what the text says. It seems to work on CSI and Bladerunner Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	RiffRaff says: Metafilter: KEEP YOUR DISSIDE Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	jjg says: I don't think so. Looking at the HD shot, I don't see the telltale "posted by _____ at 12:34 PM" lines after each comment. Even if you couldn't make out the links, every paragraph would end with a short line. It could be one really long comment taking up the whole screen, though. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	heather says: and doesn't that guy look like Merlin? just a little, and from the back only.. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	mathowie says: The nerds have gone all CSI and maybe it was just a word processor after all. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
	haasim says: It just occured to me, I can't think of any popular web site (other than MetaFilter) that has a blue background and wads of text. Posted 37 months ago. ( permalink )
