Website Easter Eggs
Heya!
So, I've had both this blog and my personal website for quite a while now. Both are over a year old at this point. I think the personal website is more than three years? I don't quite know, actually.
Anyways! I wanted to talk about easter eggs. Fun stuff you can find on my website, and on websites in general. Because, yes, I do (sort of) have a few.
Personally, I've been a big fan of the idea for a while. In general, I really love taking advantage of the medium that is the web, and doing weird sort of format screws. Easter eggs are sort of part of that idea. That, and they're just kind of fun.
For a while now, I've had three somewhat hidden pages on here. The first being /bookmarks, which, as you might've guessed by the url, is just a collection of random links. Mostly for personal use.
There's also /ai, which just contains the word "No". I made it a while back when i learned about the AI slashpage, and thought it would be mildly humorous to have someone try to check mine, just to be greeted by a singular word.
Lastly, there's /now, which actually redirects you to the indieweb.org page explaining why well-known urls like /now are generally a bad idea. I don't have any super strong opinions about this myself, honestly. I just find the idea of the redirect very funny.
That's all the easter eggs on this blog. I do have another blog on kamiscorner.xyz, however. Which... while it doesn't really have any hidden easter eggs, it does have a random quote display. I'll be listing off some of my favorites here, along with the source i got them from:
"I chose the vaccuum cleaner because of its anthropromorphic qualities. It sucks."A paraphrased Jeff Koon quote. He's a fairly controversial artist who mainly does sculptures. I recommend reading up on him a bit if you don't know anything about the guy, because he is genuinely kind of nuts in an incredibly funny way.

I could weld two stars together if I had a spaceship fast enough!Quote by the dog welder.
THAT IS NOT HOW WELDING WORKS, GOOD NIGHTQuote about the aforementioned dog welder.

Anyways, that's all for now! I've got some stuff I need to do in... about 20 minutes from now, so I better finish up this blogpost, I think. Hope you enjoyed reading my ramblings about easter eggs, maybe there'll be a part two or something.
