So for those of you who are aware of this blog (which isn't many as I don't really tell people about it), you may be aware that I have made a number of posts in the past. You may also notice that they have vanished. Some super aware people may know that this thing used to have a lot of stuff on it (that was really shit.) Well basically, for the third time, I'm starting this again.
At the start, this site was a dumb thing I set up in secondary school to make dumb posts about "random" stuff, because it was acceptable to be a meme obsessed twat in those days. It was called the MadDok87 Zone and had awful fonts and really clashing colours. It looked like something straight out of a 90's kid's fever dream, I kid you not. After some divine intervention, I gave up, and the website sat dormant for many years (unfortunately, still with all it's posts and terrifying design for those who stumbled into it's murky waters to see.)
After a while, I wanted to set up a blog in which I recommended stuff. I didn't have a direction, but I wanted it to have structure. So as I was in a steam call with my friend Darren as I had the idea, I literally asked him that second if he wanted to do it with me. He agreed, and helped me solidify a formula. After much thought, I recommended blogger as a place to hold the site, as I had past (and imagine these quotations as enormous as your mind allows) "experience" with it. So we set up the site, which reminded me that I had a blog already.
After reading it and swiftly deleting all the posts, I changed the vomit-causing colour palette to black and white, because it always looks nice. I also renamed it to MadDok87 Personal (as that is the online name I use for basically everything.) I decided that would be a place I'd talk about stuff that wasn't worthy of the main site (which is what I'm probably going to do again.) I posted three things in the second run: a stupid short story I made as a joke, a depressing piece about my absolute fear of mortality, and some half-arsed attempt at starting a series, entitled "Mad Rant," which the first (and only) episode was about equality. Smells a bit edgy doesn't it?
So today, I have decided to once more delete the posts (well archive them in case I want to repost them for some ungodly reason), and start again. In the spirit of things, it has been rechristened "MadDoktor Personal" (which I might have another shot at renaming, but we'll see.) I might even redesign the whole look again for continuity's sake (I mean I do have a bit of a thing for the 80's at the moment...) What I'm going to use it for this time round, well, I'm not certain, I might just document my memories in here, I might talk about dumb things that annoy me, I might talk about my love of wrestling, the possibilities are limitless! I just hope I actually make frequent use of it this time around.
Got any suggestions for what I could do with this site? Let me know!
