Welcome to The Website
About The Website
You know how some people will stick the word "the" in front of anything just to make it sound more important? Well, I assure you I'm not one of them! I'm appalled that you'd even consider accusing me of such trickery! The nerve...! Why, I could call it "Some Website", and it would still be just as popular a website.
"What?" you say? "Your website couldn't be less popular if it was just a bunch of videos of grass growing in slow motion."? Okay. You caught me. I have a daily average of less than 0.41 hits. I really do just use the word "the" to make my site sound more important.
But that doesn't mean you can't have fun at The Website. Ho ho no! Just use the menu on the right to access tons of cool features. You're hooked now, aren't you? BWAHAHAHAHA! My evil plan to take over the world one viewer at a time is coming to fruition!
So have a nice day, hope you enjoyed your visit, and remember to vote for me at the next "Grand Ichywa of Earth" election.
Latest Update: June 16
Yesterday when the mail arrived, I found a letter to me from the university. It said something to the effect of, "We notice that you got an A in Philosophy. Because you did so well, we're hoping you enroll in the Department of Philosphy next year. And because the class sizes are smaller in second year, we promise not to treat you like a number any more." I laughed as I tore the paper up, crumpled it into a ball, and burned it. I hated philosophy.
Today I went to the university to get a form signed so that they'd let me register for next year. I walked up to the head of the Computer Science department and asked him politely to sign my form. He replied, "And what if I don't want to?". And I said, "I'd have to enroll in Philosophy, and I that would pretty much be the worst thing in the world." And he said, "Wrong answer! You were supposed to say, 'I'd have to work for a living.'" But besides making fun of me and my jokes, he was a pretty nice guy.
After he signed my form, I went back dowstairs to the Science Office, so that they could remove the registration block from my account. The receptionist there said that if I had any problems registering, I should give them a call. I said, "I'm sure I will. I haven't had a single problem-less registration yet." She said, "Good! That's very good!" I smiled and walked away.
I should write a book called Running A University For Dummies. If anyone running the university I attend read it, I'm sure it would be a much happier place.

AFTER YEARS OF WAITING, THE COMIC IS COMPLETE! This means that I can start working on the next one, which I promise will be much better and with less Zero Wing jokes.

Evil Browser: Internet Explorer
If you're running Internet Explorer, you've probably noticed that this site looks absolutely terrible. For all of you not running Internet Explorer, let me show you exactly what I'm talking about:
- IE - Mac (notice the lack of any backgrounds)
- IE - PC (notice the lack of any menu, as well as no support for transparency.
The reason Internet Explorer makes the website look terrible is because Internet Explorer itself is terrible. It's pretty much the second worst thing on earth. Chock full of viruses, spyware, and other security issues, IE also refuses to follow HTML specifications, which makes designing a website for it a nightmare. There are whole websites devoted to hacks, exploits, and other complicated things that trick IE into displaying a site the way you want it to. Unfortunately, these tricks don't even work half the time, obfuscate your code beyond all recognition, and also prevent real browsers from displaying your site properly.
So I have completely given up on Internet Explorer, and laugh at anyone who still uses it. You really should know better. Just to taunt you, I'll show you what The Website looks like in all its glory, so you can see what you're missing out on.
Problems, Difficulties, Suggestions
If you have issues with any of the pages within The Website (broken links, typos, if you think I'm corrupting the youth of the nation with images of talking zucchinis, even if you just want to yell at me for the fun of it), please send me an e-mail at zucchiniboy@shaw.ca.
Just please don't sign me up for any spam. Spam annoys me.
