Dear Sirs,

In regards to your recent interview with TrekMovie.com, I have the following to say:
[spoiler]What the fuck are you thinking? “It’s the same, but it’s different”? It’s a brand new alternate universe, but it’s not a reboot?
Um, no – sorry! If it’s a new universe, a new line of continuity… Then it is, by definition, a fucking reboot.[/spoiler]

And, I’m fine with that – as long as you stop treating the fans like idiots, and just admit it. It’s your movie, and as long as your true to the core of the series, that’s all that really matters.

Just stop with the bullshit – you’re not fooling anyone, you’re only pissing us off.

Thanks!
Dunny

Well, turns out that five of the top twenty things that people search for – and end up coming here to find out about – are variations of the phrase foamy chewbacca. This is rather strange as no actual posts contain that phrase! With the exception of this one, of course.

A quick Google search shows that my Twitter feed is the #2 result for foamy chewbacca, which might explain how people were lead to the site… The Twitter feed on the sidebar. How it got there is simple: I was watching Zombie Strippers, heard the phrase and tweeted it for posterity.

What does this mean, though? Well, somehow people other than myself are also wondering just what the fuck a foamy chewbacca is, and were hoping that I might be able to enlighten them. Alas, at this point in time I cannot – but I shall add an entry to the FAQ in the hopes that, someday, I will be able to fully answer that question once and for all.

Then I got to tinkering, which almost always leads to trouble.

First, a change that did happen: I’ve added a plugin that tracks the page views of each post. I’m honestly surprised that this was not included functionality with WordPress (a glaring oversight, if you ask me), but it’s there now at the bottom of the text next to the last modified information. Tiny text, since it’s not super important, but stuff that I’m concerned with.

Secondly, a change I’m considering. I’ve pretty much settled on this look for the blog for the foreseeable future. Some of you might remember a few of the previous iterations that this thing has undergone, looks wise, but I do always end up coming back to this template. I’ve tweaked it here and there – the color scheme, minor changes to the layout, added a few plugins and other stuff, but it’s been a gradual evolution rather than an all-out overhaul. To that end, I’m no longer fully comfortable with the “Designed By” credit there at the footer – Yes, it’s still based on the theme by Stephen Reinhardt, but it’s by far not his work anymore. It’s using his framework, but the rest has been changed by quite a chunk.

My question is wether how I should phrase the credit, if it should be “Designed by Dunny, based on work by Stephen Reinhardt” or what. Basically, I’m no longer happy with a simple “Modified by” credit on my own blog – but, at the same time, I do still want to give the proper credit where it is due.

Whatever I do, I know the footer text is about to get a bit smaller – it’s too large for what it is.

I’ve also got to remember to make some updates to the WTF page and to the Bio, as they both are a bit stale. The WTF should contain the plugins I’ve added, and the Bio just needs to be expanded.

Also: Five posts until I hit 100 – Hurray!

It’s a movie… Not sure if it’s suspense or horror or satire or what… Maybe it’s just one of those odd movies that fit in no genre at all, a “WTF” movie…

All I have to say about it is: Puppies in the trunk.

Seriously, track a copy of this movie down.
