My coworker, sometimes called Videodrome, is thinking about starting a website. He keeps claiming that it won't be some "damned E/N bullshit" like all the sites he has seen recently. Sometimes at work starts looking around the little chain of sites we have here and calling Artfag our matriarch. He then starts questioning the motivations of everyone involved and critiquing my page. Sometimes it's amusing, sometimes insightful, sometimes obnoxious to the point of stapler retaliation (Whereby, I use my hand to accelerate a stapler in a vector designed to intersect with his head). He has some interesting concepts he wants to publish out on the web, as well as some pretty damn good humor. I wish him the best and hope he can avoid becoming an E/N site and thus dooming him to hypocrisy for all time.

Speaking of Vid, he left recently to go to Wendys, out of respect for the passing of Dave Thomas. Though I wanted to accompany him, my job prevents me from doing so, and I tried to have him take an Avatar in my stead. I think he ditched it, and so I'm out of luck.
