FREAKS

ADDED LATER: Erm, the links to my entries stopped working. Long story short, they’re working again now. :) (Thanks Jem^ for letting me know! :D )

The other day, I watched a film called “FREAKS!”, which was released in 1932 as a horror film. It was so horrific, that it was banned in most countries. What about it was so horrific? Considering how people reacted to someone who was different back then, it was probably that it featured actual, real, “freaks”; people with missing limbs, dwarfs, siamese twins, bearded ladies and loads more. And not what happened at the end or anything.

I watched it and I thought it was great. And I really don’t know why, since the acting sucked and I could barely understand what some of the cast were saying (Prince Randian and Schlitze being the most difficult) and some of the sound was out of sync to what was happening on the screen.

I’m not going to tell you what to do but I totally think you should watch this film. It’s available on Google Video^ – for FREE – so you can’t even say it’ll be a waste of money if you don’t like it. :P


My WordPress Plugins (April 2009)

Posted on Friday, April 24th, 2009 at 1:36pm.

My favourite type of WordPress-related posts are the ones where the site owner has written out a list of the Plugins they use and why they use them.

This is my list of the Plugins that I’m using on my site right now and why I use them. I’ve only listed the Plugins that actually add something to my site (improved functionality) or are useful (for example, by cutting down the amount of time I have to waste maintaining my site).

Spam

Posted on Wednesday, April 22nd, 2009 at 6:37pm.

I migrated back to WordPress less than two months ago and I’ve already had nearly 700 spam comments.
I know that, to some people, this isn’t a lot of spam. To me, it’s a LOT; I think I only had around 10 spam comments between August and February, back when I was still rockin’ my own script.
That’s what, a 700% increase?

Last Monday, I decided to install the Bad Behavior^ plugin after it had been recommended to me by @abledragon^.

It’s worked a charm. It’s blocked over 1300 “access attempts” (spam attempts?) and only 4 have gotten past that (and they were caught by Askimet). Needless to say, I’m really impressed! :D
