Memetic stagnation
I haven't revisited the Hallomeme in a long, long time, and suddenly it's seasonal again. I really should. I really should've, already. (Hell, I still haven't tended to my f-list properly after the GDBM influx.) Part of me wants to redo phpnonsense and make it more modular into other projects, part of me realizes it's just a gift from God that it works at all and I should just back away from it slowly. And it's in the spirit of the latter that I present Hallomeme '09: same as it ever was. Random nouns, random adjectives -- it's just as nonsensical as it ever was.
