Control Option Command

Actual conversation between me and Malin about the Norwegian movie “Pathfinder”.
Note: Lapps are the indegenous tribal folk of Scandinavia

• Me: I saw it ages ago when I was just a kid. I was way too young to understand any of it.
• Her: I guess you were only nine or eight at the time it was released.
• Me: Yeah. I can only remember something about some Darth Vader-Lapps out to get the hero.
• Her: Mmhmm? *Being busy with the baby*
• Me: Hey! DARTH VADER-LAPPS!
• Her: Oh, sorry. Let’s go again. I guess you were only eight or nine…
• Me: Yeah. I only remember something about some Darth Vader-Lapps out to get the hero.
• Her: Ahhhahaha! Darth Vader-Lapps. Good one!
• Me: Thank you.

Just realized that I haven’t posted this pic yet this year. Throughout my blogging career misfortunes I’ve posted this photo every year about spring time. It just makes me happy. It’s a bit late this year, but here goes.

I always knew this day would come. My claim to brief internet fame and niche uniqueness is at an end. It’s just too awesome an idea ¹ for someone else not to have it.

There’s no denying that both her head and body outpretties mine by far, so my only counterpoint here is that A: Mine is bigger ², which everyone knows is better; and B: I feel fairly certain that mine came first.

Ah well. Now we’re a guy and a girl with this tattoo, so unless you’re a baby you better back off. This is our territory.

If you managed to visit this blog in the 10 minutes or so before this post goes live you might have been slightly befuddled by the fact that your address bar doesn’t say parallaxdenigrate.net as you might have expected, but rather ctrloptcmd.com.

So I’ve finally moved the blog to a new domain, and let me tell you; It wasn’t easy. Oh, exporting and importing the MySQL tables was a breeze and implementing the 301 redirect wasn’t too complicated. No, the challenge was in deciding on a domain name that wasn’t already taken. In the process I probably bought about 15 domains just to get one I liked enough to use.

Now, gentle reader, you might ask yourself “What the fuck is supposed to be the point of all this?“, to which I might reply; “Well, even if parallaxdenigrate.net was a amusing domain name to the likes of me who are blessed with an odd sense of humor, it’s not exactly what you’d call memorable. Try to tell someone to type in ‘parallaxdenigrate.net’ into their browser and you’ll see what I mean.” You, in turn may exclaim something along the lines of “Are you retarded? How the blazing hell is ‘ctrloptcmd.com’ easier to remember than your previous parrylaxy thingie? You suck. I’m not gonna read your blog anymore.” at which juncture in our fascinating exchange I might counter with “Aha! But if you just remember controloptioncommand.com, which naturally redirects to this, abbreviated form of the same sequence, I think you’ll find it immensely easier to keep lodged in your cerebrum the unified resource locator corresponding to this, my humble blog.” at which point you’ve probably left so I’d be talking to myself.

Regardless! Here it is, the new and not at all improved version 1.000001 of parallaxdenigrate controloptioncommand.

Although I’ll be keeping parallaxdenigrate.net online for a while just to make sure nobody gets lost, I’d strongly encourage you to update your bookmarks and feeds.

If this doesn’t mean anything to you, we are not sharing a childhood memory right now. On the other hand, if it does; Don’t you think Mother Rada ended up with old man Kostika Suru in the end? Let’s be honest here.
