Happyland Burnt Down

Normally I tag all my blog posts with something and there all categorized fairly well. The thing is that one of my tags really needs explaining before you can understand it. It’s the most popular of my tags (I tag a lot of posts with it).

Originally I had a tag cloud with ANGER as one of the largest tags. Due to a suggestion from a friend I changed ANGER to Happyland as it makes me appear less angry. I may appear less publicly angry but unfortunately deep down inside its all bottled up (yes just because its not called ANGER).

Commonly you hear about people loosing it. Well various things caused Happyland many a problem. The original Happyland became so overloaded with posts that it literally burnt down. Now you are lucky enough to witness the rise to Happyland V2. This time Happyland’s defenses have been built strong! There are many a giant stone wall and the residents all have proper fire evacuation plans in order.

This may be the end for Happyland V1 but V2 shall reign supreme… for now.

(If there is actually a physical place called Happyland, It probably hasn’t burnt down, If it has I take no responsibility for it :P )

{Does anyone actually read this? Or is it completely pointless! Wait no, its a good outlet for my rage. :D }

More IE Nightmares

Microsoft seem to have the most stubborn browser in the history of browsers. It refuses to comply with standards and is a generic bitch to web designers everywhere.

My latest complaint is Z-Index(es) and Flash. So in Firefox, ideally you scroll down this page and the black(ish) bar at the bottom stays on top, Which it does. Internet Explorer likes to go its own way and put the Flash Content on top of my black(ish) bar even though it has a z-index of 9999.

*Update* Don’t you love that. You fix it in IE and it breaks in every other browser.

Skins Series 4

I was just going to add this to the bottom of the last post mostly because I forgot to post it when I found out about it. But I’ve now gone through this whole huge ripping and encoding process on the video (damn no embed button!) so that I can put it here.

If you don’t already know I am ridiculously, insanely and deeply in love with the TV show Skins (E4). Skins (Series) 4 was announced (semi-)recently so I’ve made a post of the trailer in all its wonderful ripped glory! (Legal Requests)

Note: The following clip contains footage (VERY) unsuitable for minors, You have been warned (Not that you’ll listen).

Get the Flash Player to see this content.

THAT WAS REALLY HARD TO RIP!

Misfits

I’ve started to watch Mistfits (E4). I’ve only been able to watch the first two episodes because my mother has started to watch it and is now forcing me to wait for her to watch the rest.

Well anyway, So far I’ve found it fantastic! Almost as good as Skins. Channel 4 seem to make brilliant shows. So heres a trailer for you to enjoy. You can watch it on 4OD, or buy it on DVD (when its out).

Inspiration

I’ve just realized where I got the inspiration for this theme. I’ve been spending a lot of time browsing around wordpress themes and things lately. This theme seems to have been inspired by the Binary Bonsai website though not intentionally. Anyhow I like this new theme though I’ve removed the sidebar(s).

I pulled the header image (the bear) from an archive on my computer. I think I stole it out of my mothers sketchbook at some point long ago but who really knows. Anyway enjoy some more pointlessness.

WordPress + K2 + Modifications = Pure Awesome
