Hyperbolation.com

after a word from our sponsors

this is the part of the show where i vent my concerns, talk about my interesting (ha!) day, etc. supposedly. we'll see how long this lasts. anyway, here are my current (and inevitably petty) complaints: why does pubweb only give...

tengwar

i have once again proved my lifetime membership in the sacred order of nerdity: yesterday i identified the etymology of tengwar (elvish to you non-nerds out there...i just keep getting lamer and lamer) and today i identified a quote from...

NOTICE: moving day

miscellany is currently being migrated to hyperbolation.com - this may take awhile, as I no longer have dsl at my apartment because i'm moving at the end of the month, which falls in the middle of the week, oh lucky...

all of the posts from my previous site have been moved over. the only thing that isn't up are the pop-up windows about the calvin & hobbes quotes and etc. these might....never....be put up. who knows. today my parents and...

mmm...css....

this has been the coolest week ever. i've been doing html, editing mt templates and css, using TERMINAL (of course i didn't really get what i was doing with terminal...but still i used it like FIVE times!)...this is the most...

new look & feel. inspired by kyle's redesign....

categories

updated: now choose from 6 categories to sort hyperbolation by topic (loosely)...

menuz

new menu structure to the right - click items to make their menus appear, clickables makes the quote reappear! btw - anyone know where the quote is from?...

air-y-er

new banner images for a cleaner, more relaxed look. more whitespace = more serenity. ahhh, winter is upon us note: i don't know what's up, but movable type keeps ignoring/stripping out the 'target' statements in anchor tags. even if i...

soon: mwcf

i think soon (read: w/in next month) i will repost my first website, the ever popular Men & Women of Collegiate Film, which is linked to on the Studio22 links page, but doesn't exist as such since my NU account...

one year and counting

i totally forgot, the end of december was the one year anniversary of hyperbolation.com - go here for the very first entry. the focus of the site used to be putting up photos and maybe a resumé, but then slowly...

spammers: fuck off

here is my first spam! aww...isn't it cute? for the record if you look up that 'person' all the links go to dumb penis-related sites. uh yeah...i'm a GIRL. and probably no one who reads my site suffers from erectile...

fuckin' a

i got spammed again. bad. 'vioxx,' some asshat bot put comment spam on EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY POSTS. that meant i had to remove BY HAND 160 COMMENTS. this also means that i had 160 EMAILS TO DELETE. fucking...

bookmarklets

finally got bookmarklets to work in safari. thanks macworld!...

dreams to come

working on putting up another site where i can log my dreams. i've got a trusty tape recorder and everything so i can get them out as soon as i wake up. i have some dreams up there already from...

new menus tried and failed

this weekend, instead of packing for the impending trip to japan, i starting fiddling with some movable type plugins. i installed a few and changed around the navigation on the individual archive pages, but then went back and changed just...

style switching

i am working on alternate style sheets and whatnot so the site may be a bit wonky for the next week or so....

...but you can't go back

the style switcher works works sometimes, but because i'm still fiddling with the new design, you won't might not be able to switch back to the red & gold design from the new one. sorry....

where will i put it??

what am i going to do with all of this extra stuff (right hand side of red & yellow design) in the new design??? it doesn't fit ANYWHERE!!...

fucking lack of foresight

still don't know what to do about those special sections. for now...it just sort of gets overlaid and totally sucks. busy packing now and moving next week so i'll worry about this later. oh yeah, and my photos too. that'll...

i give up

i can't figure out what to do, so in the interest on the new design and fresh starts and what have you, i'm going to discard the style switching for now and just go with the new design. you can...

new favicon, blah blah blah

recycled style switcher swatch for the new favicon. if you still see the old 'h' quit your browser and refresh. if you're using safari and that doesn't work, it's because although safari is in many ways awesome (let's hear it...

hey, leave comments & the rest is coming, ok?

if no one reads this besides a handful of my friends and coworkers, that's cool. but hey, i like comments! leave me comments! you don't have ANYTHING to say about abraham lincoln or maybe vin diesel? i know you do....

photogallery: suck it

trying to get my photo gallery up, but running into some snags - namely, what to do about conflicting aspect ratios. i had it all automated with a moveable type plugin, but i'm not happy with some of the functionality...

MWCF is back in black + Photos are up

i have reposted 'the men and women of collegiate film' for all to see. oogle your favorite film student and be sure to tip your waitress on the way out. also please note that the mwcf site is licensed, so...

i bet eric has not seen it/MT3.11

for your consideration: movies eric has not seen. how are you a 25 year old dude that hasn't seen any of the terminator movies?! godfather movies?? 'honey, i shrunk the kids' for pete's sake??! i don't know either. ask eric....

happy 2nd anniversary!

wednesday was the 2 year anniversary of hyperbolation. i look back at my first entry and i am amused and a bit embarrassed. and - whoa! pubweb! here's to having my own domain. thanks to everyone who reads my site....

Pending: LV report, the cell switch

currently trying to straighten out the cluster fuck that has become of my efforts to switch mobile companies and get a new phone. in summary: i'm going for the razr even though i don't need it. all of the rebates...

time for a site redesign

i'm getting tired of the current site layout and i need to tear it down and redo all of the css anyway. if you have any ideas or comments about how you'd like hyperbolation to look, leave a comment to...

time for a site redesign *BUMP*

seriously people, help me out. maybe post a link to sites you like the looks of or just tell me your favorite colors. anything about the site you think is clunky? anything you particularly like? any input (as long as...

new server!

update: for file path, change only the extension. i re-added in the 'archives' part of the url path. i've migrated hyperbolation.com over to dreamhost. i was lured in by the 4.8 gigs of storage space (useful for FTP!). so far...

welcome to Hyperbolation v4.0! some basic housekeeping changes and of course, new graphics. if things look really messed up, then try emptying your browser cache and hitting 'reload' a few times. note that all AV Club content has been moved...
