Picking up the Activity

Cotton candy is fine, too
Cotton candy is fine, too

An introduction is one of the hardest things to get right. So many different facets to put forth, each with pros and cons that need to be carefully weighed out, visually inspected, then stamped “Pass” or “Fail”, and we continue, until there is only one left. I suppose that a) this is just one sad man’s rant, and b) who is this crazy ranting man?.

Ohai – I’m looking for writers, have you found them?

nekosasu | April 17, 2009 | 1:54 am
OMG!!
OMG!!

I’ve been literally flooded with absolutely zero e-mails asking me why I was posting so little recently, and this kinda gave me the push that got me writing here.

1 Million Hits? Unpossible.

nekosasu | April 2, 2009 | 8:12 pm
1M GET!
Well, apparently it IS possible. Yay me!

Must’ve happened while I was at that AC/DC concert in Barcelona, heh. (Check my twitter updates for more on that.) I suppose I can celebrate now?

But I won’t go and stroke my e-peen on these obviously bloated figures ruined by spambots, that doesn’t seem appropriate in this time and age where every second shitty macdonaldized blog reaches the same number – but of visits – within two months now.
I won’t give you useless stats either, like how many % use Chrome, Vista and Ritalin to get rid of their troubles. And I won’t also tell you how many crazy “pangya lolicon” “ARIA hentai” (I fucking curse you) and similar tags and google searches this site has seen over time.

At first I thought I’d never make it this far without integrating any kind of trendy aniblogomerates that are out there, and history has shown how often I’ve raged about how poorly I’ve been served fame and recognition on that silver aniblog plate. I don’t even think I’ve actually made it far, hitting 1M after two years probably is just a natural occurrence. But, I do feel (or at least, I HOPE) that amongst those numbers, there are a couple of genuine regulars who do actually read my posts.

I thank everyone who has visited my modest blog ever so silently during its 2+ years of existence, and a big thanks goes out especially to those who were inspired enough to read and comment my often self-overrated posts. Partly obviously boosts my alter ego, but definitely motivates me to write less offensively, and much more intelligently. If this keeps up, I might even expect 20+ commenters a post in… 6 years? Great. And I swear I will be around by then to stultify you if you think this is stupid.

Now, I need some quality plugging on your hueg blogs to get moar hits. 2M in less than a year now, okay?

…Anyone?
