I just spent the last forty minutes reading a blog.

It is a good blog.  Some funny content, some thought experiments.  But now that I am done, I am stabbing my eyes with my knuckles.  The entire website was black background with white text.  There was some subtle color in the black background and when I first saw it I thought, “Wow, this is cool.  Maybe I should do some changes on my blog.  Maybe I can put in a ghosted image in a black…”  I had all kinds of plans when I first saw it.

But as much as I like darkness and as cool as that website looked at first view, I can’t see shit right now.  When I consider if I’ll return to the blog, I am weighing the content against the pain in my eyes.  As weak as my content already is, I can’t afford to drive people away with eye strain issues.
