Ok, so, what’s more important for a website: layout or content?

You can read (and discuss) my article here: Layout vs content.

I know I do not fit in female stereotypes, but this is just… odd. Perhaps the blog post wasn’t long enough? In any case, The Gender Genie (which promises to reveal writer’s gender to anyone who’s bored enough to try it) thinks I’m a guy.

I gave it my previous blog entry and it says I’m male. WTF?!? Apparently, words such as “more”, “what” and “above” are “masculine keywords”. Once again: WTF?!?

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t think being a male is a bad thing. It’s just… I consider myself very feminine (despite the fact I am a tomboy, but hey, most of the tomboys I know are very feminine, so it’s not much of a surprise). On the other hand, I do know I have a male sense of humor. Oh well. If I’d get to be a guy online, I’ll be a guy. I just hope I won’t have a small cock.

See, thinking like a man already!

PS-And yes, I will try the same with this blog post.
PPS-And here’s a really cute and really small cock. Just because!

(Read the post’s title as: 2do)

Ok, I had a lot of work to do these days. Both online and offline. I still have to think about several papers I must write, and I am not quite sure about the subjects, yet. Have to think of something semi-interesting at least.

Ugly weather. Grrrr…
It really hard for me to think with the weather like this. It’s really, REALLY cold, and it was sunny just 3 days ago. Ugh! Sometimes, I hate autumn. Well, not autumn itself, but the coooold weather. Sure, my allergies are under control now, and I often get nostalgic during these months… Which is both a good and a bad thing. Getting way too nostalgic and emotional is not good, because I can easily become depressed. I can’t think when I’m in a cranky mood (who can?) and that makes me useless.

Article for Site glamour contest
Other than that, I found some time to write an article for “Site Glamour contest”. I chose a pretty generic topic, I am afraid, but that’s the only one I could write about. After all, I don’t know anything about two of the subjects, and the last one could get too personal.

Twilight rants will become “Spittings”
Oh, and I am so proud (in a lolwut way) my “Twilight” rants are getting popular, so I’ve decided to move them to “Spittings” and give them a section of their own. I’ll polish my reviews and add a few additional rants. First have to read “Breaking Dawn”, though. I’m lazy. I read the first part (Bella) and, while it wasn’t as boring as the previous novels, it sure looked horrible and even more resembled a fanfiction written by a 12 year old. Oh, well.

Promoting abstinence?
But at least I think I understand why these crappy books became so popular… It’s really easy to please teenage audience, that’s for sure; all you have to do is write about a hot guy. But an ugly reason behind “Twilight” success was the fact publishers (or whoever is guilty) thought those novels promote abstinence and therefore are safe for young American girls to read. Ok, I admit, I am not a particular fan of abstinence programs and I do not think they work, but in any case, these books are not “safe” for kids to read. First of all, those books don’t promote abstinence; if nothing, they show teenagers get sexually frustrated and therefore marry at the age of 18 just to have sex. Second of all, abstinence or not, these novels promote many bad and unhealthy things, such as abusive relationships, obsessive and controlling behavior, child neglecting and selfishness. Not to mention pedophilia.

Now, I am sure Meyer herself didn’t want to promote all those bizarre things; she is simply a really untalented writer who doesn’t know how to make a point even when she wants. But still, what were editors/publishers/parents thinking???

We (the contestants, I mean) still have to write a short article on one of the four topics. I already chose the subject; it’s not the most interesting or demanding one, but it’s the only one I can write about. Two of the topics are very interesting, but I know very little (if anything) about the subjects, and the third one could get too personal, which I hate (don’t get me wrong, it’s not a bad thing to write about personal stuff, it’s just not my style). So I opted for the fourth one.

PS-”Eclipse” rant coming soon, I promise. I just have to read the book first. It’s really boring and I’m reading about 3 pages a day. Nothing happens in that novel, except for a few “lolwutz” moments that are worth mentioning. But I’ll be there, I promise.

A little more than two years ago, I found this page, and the rest is… Well, history.

Ok, I know it’s lame. I know. Still, nothing makes me laugh more than absurd, and I find this one – no matter how stupid and random and pointless and, well, lame it may be – irresistible. To the point I’ve decided to name my website after it.

Jefflion.net was born (well, registered) on September 12th 2007. I honestly don’t remember if I created an actual website right away, or a few weeks later. In any case:

Happy birthday jefflion.net!
