“I couldn't live a week without a private library
- indeed, I'd part with all my furniture and squat and sleep on the floor
before I'd let go of the 1500 or so books I possess.” ― H.P. Lovecraft

So anyway Blogger is pissing me right the hell off.

See, most of you have noticed that the comments are down. Not just down, but down indefinitely.

The way I looked at it, it's a free service. What can you expect right? Then I saw this:

Blogout System Message: System Closed. See Site for Details.

Which led to this:

Ok. well as you have all probably found out, BlogOut is pretty much down. I dont have the drive space to facillitate the system any longer and am unfortunately going to have to shut it down for now. Hopefully in the future I'll be able to bring back a more stable, more flexible solution, but until then I apologize for the inconvenience.

Once again, free service, right? The tone of the message makes it seem like it's a little site run by some underdog, little guy that's struggling to do me the favor of hosting my little blog.

But then I thought about it. It's goddamn proffessional enough to have an ad banner and an ad banner means they're making money from my little blog being here. Not a ton of money I'll grant you, but a little from me, and a little from everyone else on Blogger. You'd think they could fix the fucking thing.

So I considered going to a pay site (and I still haven't ruled that out, mind you) and I realized that if I was paying for the Blogger upgrade I'd probably still have my fucking comments.

Anyways, I'm going to give it a few more days, but if you come here and find a link to another site you'll know that I moved and why. If I need to pay for a blog I'm going to one that works. My fucking archives never did work here...
