X-Busted

As long as I'm being completely random, I thought I'd put up this poster/desktop background/whatever that I made in GIMP. All of the images are either official art or ripped directly form the games. This won't mean much to those who aren't already Megaman X fans, but hopefully it'll at least turn up in Google Image searches.
It might show up a bit funny on some monitors, because I made it to be 1366x768 to be the same size as my laptop monitor, but it seemed to look fine on the 1280x768 monitor on the family desktop, so I'm not sure if I'll make another version, even though I guess that would be the "pro" thing to do. The only real concern that I have is that I think I might have gotten the wrong Sigma picture for Megaman X8 on the bottom right (all the forms of Sigma were shown in their order of appearance from the various games on the sides). I think I might have accidentally gotten an image of Sigma's final form there instead of the regular Sigma appearance, which I used for all the other pictures to make it recognizable, so if anything is going to be fixed, it's that. Personally, I use this as my desktop background, but for someone that has a lot of icons, that might not work out. I just dragged all of mine to the blue spots.
While I'm promoting Megaman X, you can play the original Megaman X on http://www.virtualsupernes.com/ (yes, it's legal, as long as you don't download the game for your own uses), and they have a bunch of other old games playable there too. Hopefully, they'll eventually add X2 and X3 there, also, because I have to say X2 was my favorite in the series.
If you want to use the picture yourself, fine, but don't claim you made it yourself because you didn't.

What Do Normal People Put in These Things?

Okay, I've finally figured out what I'm going to write. It has to be something that doesn't offend people, so every single possibility is out. That leaves me with absolutely nothing. However, that doesn't mean I shouldn't be able to put in a stretched version of absolutely nothing. Therefore, blank space!






The only problem with this is that since blank space can be made as long or short as you want it to be, blogs would have no reason to exist as everyone will be able to switch to Twitter and post just as much. Hmm.

If You're Reading This, It's Already Too Late

It is impossible to insert an awkward silence into a blog post.
Tentative Hello, world! I've been the culmination of evolution ever since Bill Watterson quit, and I recently discovered that I can't decide on whether or not to capitalize the word "it's" in the title of this blog post. Stuff about myself: Any personal information I give out will be fake, so for now let's just say that I'm Albert Einstein. I enjoy dying stupid deaths in video games and hiding under the bed. I have a dog (more or less) and therefore live  in constant danger of being eaten, so if I seem incredibly paranoid at times, I have an excuse. I have achieved infamy several times in the past by making incredibly obscure references that even I am not sure if I completely remember ("I am shocked - that they stole the horse" is one of my favorites) and wishing xkcd would update more often. Now that you are enlightened by all this priceless info, I hope you're not stupid enough to believe that reading this enlightened you. Exclamation Point!
(Wait, should I put that in all caps or not?)
