Site is now 20 years
Dusting Off the Digital Cobwebs: We’re 20!
Holy pixels, Batman. I just checked the registration date on this place and realized this site is now 20 years old.
To put that in perspective: when this domain was born, Pluto was still a planet, people were unironically wearing shutter shades, and “tweeting” was something only birds did. This site has officially survived long enough to have a mid-life crisis, buy a leather jacket, and start listening to “classic rock” from 2006.
The Long Nap
I’ll be the first to admit it: this site hasn’t just been “quiet.” It’s been in a digital coma. While the internet moved on to TikTok dances and AI taking over the world, this corner of the web stayed frozen in time—growing a thick layer of virtual dust and probably housing some very confused 404 errors.
The Resurrection Plan
But like a trendy 90s fashion trend or a movie franchise that refuses to die, I’m bringing it back. Why? Because the internet needs more soul and fewer algorithms. Plus, I already paid for the hosting.
Here’s the “highly professional” roadmap for the revival:
- Step 1: Scrub away the cringe-worthy blog posts from my youth (or keep them for blackmail purposes).
- Step 2: Actually post things. Regularly. Probably.
- Step 3: Figure out how CSS works again without breaking the entire layout.
Warning: Expect some growing pains. If the site suddenly starts looking like a MySpace page from 2005, just know that I’ve probably had too much coffee and got nostalgic.
Stay tuned. The comeback is real, and it’s going to be at least 20% less awkward than the original launch.
Wait, What’s a “Blog”?
I also realized that to the Gen-Z crowd, a “blog post” probably sounds like some ancient, forbidden ritual. For the uninitiated: a blog is basically a Twitter thread, but it doesn’t cap my rambling at 280 characters, there’s no “For You” page algorithm shoving salad recipes down your throat, and—get this—you actually have to read it.
I know, I know. “Where is the Subway Surfers gameplay at the bottom of the screen to keep my attention?” Nowhere. It’s just me and my syntax. It’s vintage. It’s “retro-core”.
