i just logged in for the first time in a while and it updated. it looks SO FUCKING BAD. how can people getting paid to work produce something so horrible? it's like they captured an albatross and had it shit onto discord mold.
Slightly off-topic:
I wish Microsoft didn´t kill msn messenger and just made it better. And by better I also mean not changing the layout too much. It was so fucking easy and nice to use. Kept updating the call function and increasing quality of sound but aside from that just keeping it vanilla.

It actually really confuses me how such a brilliant bunch of techies like Microsoft couldn´t find a fucking way to keep messenger alive and popular, NOT TO MENTION (sorry I´m getting fucking annoyed) when it was already fucking so popular and people loved it!! Heck they even integrated it into the new outlook.com website... You could literally start chatting with people if only for a quickie when you where checking your mail at lunch time...
I want to punch a hole in my desk.
Then again, the big fucking players at Microsoft, the fucking "we dunno shit about liek wats good about microsoofts os liek windoos we just like makin it look good" buncha fucking queers lol that took after after the real fucking brains like Bill Gates and his high IQ coders decided to leave the reigns over to these stupid poofs. So what did they do with Windows 8? Let´s remove the fuckin start menu button, so people have to click big stupid symbols in the middle of the screen like on mobile phones. Fuckers.
So glad I literally never use Skype...

I feel like they just wanted to take away freedom and nice things...
When they replaced MSN Messenger with Skype, hurl.
When they replaced MySpace with Facebook, hurl.
It's all about making everything uniform and totally ugly.

i'd actually love to go back to the old ugly, the likes of geocities and angelfire.
if a page doesn't have 14 animated gifs and midi playing, it's defective.
they really do seem to be tryin to make everything uniform. i've been tryin to find a good HTML editor to gussy up my site and everything is this AJAX / WP / generic template garbage. it makes me want to dig up my old hard drives and replicate my site from the 90s.

Do it man.
We all know those were the aesthetic glory days of the internet.
Old school sites are beautiful.
I've been on a retro website design kick lately.
I just don't have adequate time that I could justify devoting to the effort of making one.
