Arcane Lore

Untitled States is Lore Sjöberg's latest creation. You may remember Lore from such hits as The Brunching Shuttlecocks and Name Decoder. His new instance of Sensation Heightening Interactive Technology is yet another effort by Lore to capture the interest of today's hip young Webloggy crowd.
Fantastic, I'm always looking for more ways to amuse others with ironic profanity!

Thanks, Faint of Butt. Sometimes I wish I would update it, too, but by the end I was pretty much out of steam. Still, I do miss plain old regular vi-style writing. I write the odd review, news article, or blog entry, but it's not the same.

OK, this is somewhat amusing.



I tried to do "Hello, my name is Allah" in Arabic, but apparently the image renderer doesn't do unicode.

This is certainly in response to the recent popularity of the Cyborg Name Generator on Live Journal.
Only now the poster will have to write the jokes instead of Lore.

I saw this and it immediately brought a tear to my eye.
Thank you Lore, for being there for me in my early twenties and making every day in earthlink technical support managable.
Also, can we get a mirror site for the titanic review?

So, you know, write. Isn't the whole point of a blog that you can post whatever you like? And occasionally you do, which is why I still check the Lungfish almost daily.

Good point, Squidlarkin, and something I've been thinking about since I posted. I'll be addressing the issue in my weblog in the near future.
If the thought doesn't float out of my head in the next few minutes.

Wow, I didn't realize that Lore was right here in the thread. Thanks for making me laugh, man. I regularly quote this comic.
