My Douchebag Name

by Robin

What’s your douchebag name?.

I’ll give you a hint, it’s always the same answer.

Back to ASO

by Robin

So seeing as how I don’t use this site anymore at all (it took me 30 seconds to figure out where the write post page was in the new WordPress menu), I’ve shifted it back to A Small Orange for their dirt cheap $25/year Tiny plan. Compared to DreamHost, this is about a fourth of the cost.

Surprisingly enough, I didn’t completely screw it up.

Gender Browsing

by Robin

Despite the scary realization that websites can capture your browsing history, Mike Nolet has created a JavaScript that guesses your gender based upon what sites you have visited. I ran mine through, and low and behold it was incredibly accurate…

Likelihood of you being FEMALE is 3%

Likelihood of you being MALE is 97%

Wikipedia

From Hail Mary (famous play):

On Minnesota’s next possession with 14 seconds left to play, a whiskey bottle was thrown by a spectator, striking Armen Terzian in the head at Minnesota’s own 10-yard line, creating a large forehead gash and rendering him unconscious. Terzian had to wear a bandage, later requiring 11 stitches, as he walked off the field and was replaced by substitute official Charley Musser for the final two plays.

From Armen Terzian:

Minutes later an angry fan hit Terzian with a whiskey bottle in the back of the head, rendering him momentarily unconscious. He did not require stitches, but had to wear a large white bandage around his forehead for the final few seconds remaining in the game.

Which to believe, which to believe…

Binary Bonsai on Habari

by Robin

After being one of the most famous WordPress-run blogs for what seems like forever, Binary Bonsai is making the switch to Habari. I downloaded the 0.5 release to test it out, and I was surprised with how far it’s come. I thought about switching over, but I don’t really maintain/care about this blog anymore, so I’m thinking it’s not worth the trouble.

As for Michael’s new theme, I just wish he’d bring back Freya, which is still one of my favorite blog designs.

Note: to view his old entries, just take off the /archives/200X/XX/XX/ prefix — so it’s just /slug.
