woah an actual blog post!

that’s right we gettin’ real with this one, the first blog post was just a test to see if the rss stuff worked, which it did! (its gone now LOST MEDIA!!!!!! AAAH!!!!!) so, congrats to me for… yeah it wasn’t that hard actually but it’s the thought that counts. (i think)

okay so what am i gonna talk about for this first blog post, i hear you asking. i dunno but you should yell really loudly right now for no reason, and if anyone asks why you did that just stare at them blankly, it’d be funny. so what am i up to? well, i’ve been making this site not completely useless, that’s the main thing. i was gonna have a unique design for the website at first, then i started to realise that wordpress is really shit for the whole “making creative website designs that don’t look generic and modern” thing, heres what i was gonna have the site look like at first.

heres a screenshot of the homepage from when i was going for a different style, i archived it on the wayback machine before i changed it to this design, so hop on there and check it out if you want

anyway, i soon found out that, as i said before, wordpress is really bad for making sites look like that, and plus, lets all be honest, it looked pretty shit with that design, it just didn’t work that well, and i did actually realise this while i was making the site, but i couldnt make it look much better while still keeping a similar-ish style, so i just gave up and did this. i’m a massive simplicity hater, but it does fit with the comic very well, and also its very easy to work with. SPEAKING OF THE COMIC… lets talk about that for a bit.

the comic is a product of me being incredibly bored at school, i for some reason booted up a windows xp vm, and drew some intentionally bad comics, and those were the original shoe head man comics. (im describing all of this stuff like its some ancient historical relic and not some shitty webcomic that only my friends know about) then i realised that i couldnt get the comics off the vm and onto the actual computer, i mean, i probably could but theres no way in hell im gonna try and figure that out. anyway i just decided to make some new ones on windows 10 ms paint, which is just windows 8 ms paint, which is just windows 7 ms paint, which is just windows vista ms paint. and so i did, and now all of you have to suffer with this awful webcomic, but hey… atleast it’s better than ctrl + alt + del! (for anyone wondering, that’s my quality control standard for the comic) anyway, i don’t have much else to say, so i’ll do what i did on the first blog post on the last website design and list some things i wanna add!

i’ve been playing hitman recently and it’s really fun, so i’m thinking of making a page dedicated to just random stuff i wanna share, one section of which could be hitman contracts i make, and y’all can try play them. get prepared for a whole lot of random shit on that page of the site. i’m now realising that’s the only idea i have of what to add so far, so i’m just gonna end the blog post here lmao, seeya
