So, as the story goes, Arkham City takes place 12 months or so after the first game, Arkham Asylum. Somehow Quincy Sharp, the former warden of Arkham Asylum has successfully managed to run for mayor, and convinced all of Gotham that it would be a great idea to wall off a chunk of the city and turn that chunk into a big-ass prison. Sounds logical? Not especially, and the start of the game does a very poor job at explaining what exactly has happened between the two games. I hear that there’s some sort of comic out there that shines some light in to this, but fuck this cross-media bullshit.

Cleaning up the site, 2012 edition
Oh hi. So, I’ve been cleaning up the site quite a bit lately. Deleted a bunch of unused tags, streamlined the categories, fixed dead links by either removing or updating them, updated the blogroll, updated the plugins, reconfigured the sitemap stuff… So you know, general maintenance really.
I also rewrote a large part of the main music page, and added a few pictures in there to spice it up a little. I think it makes more sense now. Also, remember when I used wayback machine to hunt down some release dates for some of my old songs and ended up editing the WordPress posting dates to set up blog posts in the past? Yeah, that was a dumb idea if there ever was one, so I deleted those 3 posts. And I also rewrote the About page.
And I changed the theme from the old barely working Green Goblin to WordPress’ own Twenty Eleven. Yes yes, I know, I’m a year late. It will be interesting to see what kind of theme the Twenty Twelve will be, maybe I’ll use that if it’s any good.
I was also considering getting a new domain name. I don’t really know why for sure, I’m sure I can come up with a good excuse. Beerlake is kind of tiring. Looking back, that was kind of dumb name to pick for a domain, right? Don’t really know what would be a good new domain though, and I don’t even want to think of all the dead links that would result in killing the image dump that resides in here. So I guess I’m stuck with it, for now at least.
Now, you may ask yourself, why is he doing all this, he never even updates this stupid site. That’s a good question. Maybe I will update more often. Guess you just have to tune in to find out. Mysterious!
Default theme…
So I updated to WP3, and it seems to have broken the theme I was using, so right now I’m using the new default theme of WP3.
Hooray?
The instant noodle diaries part 4
I’m pleased to say that partly due to an overwhelming fan response, and partly because I just happened to find some new flavours of noodles, the diaries shall continue.
stew beef=okay!
I was a little skeptical at the beginning, the smell of the stew beef flavour seemed like it might be a bit too much, but it mellowed out in the end and ended up being pretty good.
The instant noodle diaries part 3
To my own surprise, vegetable flavoured noodles weren’t bad at all. I’m such a racist for thinking they would such without even giving them the chance (to suck). So…
vegetable=okay!
I’m sad to have to tell you this, but this post may mark the end of the instant noodle diaries, as I have now ran out of new flavours to test, of my usual noodle brand at least. I may have to start thinking outside the box on the next one, or just see if shopping elsewhere might do the trick.
The instant noodle diaries part 2
The second part of the marvelous instant noodle diaries by me.
Duck=good enough
Next up on my list of noodles will be vegetable valley.
The instant noodle diaries
I’ve been eating more instant noodles than before. Here’s the story so far.
Chicken=good
Pork=good
Shrimp=not so good
I’ll update you as I explore the previously unknown flavours (to me, anyway) of noodle in the magnificent world of noodles.
Last broken thing fixed after the hosting move
Totally not worth a post really, but I also need to test if the twitter plugin works, as well. So, look at me posting. And hopefully look at me tweeting at the same time?!
I guess I could write something else as well.
Like, something important…?
I don’t know man, I just need to test this shit out. Technically it should work, since I’m using the same settings as before, but better know for sure, right?
Moved hosting from godaddy to 1and1
That’s about all I have to report from the frontlines.
Everything seems to working okay, though I had to change one of my plugins in WP to another one, as the old one kind of stopped working. Hard to say if I could have done anything about that, so I figured I’d just change to something else that does the same thing.
If you see any missing links or broken pages, let me know, maybe I can fix that shit up.
