And no, I’m not kidding this time, seriously. I’ve seen too many things recently, and there’s no way I can’t write about them. I’ve encountered stupid people, new minor annoyances, more things I enjoy, hate, and all that good stuff. All I need to do is finally get around to designing this site (I’m going to go minimalist on this, it will make your eyes happy), so stay tuned. Touch that dial, and I will hunt you down.

I LOVE Comic Sans [April Fool’s joke 2011]
If there are three typefaces that I love, they are Papyrus, Algerian, and the king of the three Comic Sans. No font could ever live up to its glory as what it obviously is; most likely the most overused font in history, and that has to mean something. Like they say, “10,000 people can’t be wrong”.Vincent Connare created this typeface in 1994 for Microsoft, who needed a non-threatening font to be used in their applications to set well with comic strips, and especially 8th grader’s history reports. The font has since picked up so much steam that it is probably the most loved, and recognizable fonts to the common folk.
Because of its common usage, and placeability, I have decided to change this entire blog’s typographic essence to this enticing font. A font for the ages. A font that can be used in any situation, in any medium — logos, billboards, body copy, what have you, you cannot deny that it certainly is something.
I encourage you to use this font whenever possible. Next time you design a logo; Comic Sans. Writing your college thesis; Comic Sans. Putting together a flyer for your missing pet ocelot; Comic Freaking Sans.
How To Kill A Cold in 3 Days
A few days ago, after a fairly large party, I felt that I was coming down with a cold that someone had brought as an uninvited guest. As a man with shit to do, I did not want this to bring me down any more than it had to, so I did the sensible thing, and did everything within my power to stop it before it could get any worse. A cold is one of the worst, most inconvenient things that could happen to me (it’s right up there with dying, although that’s impossible, so no… it isn’t) and there was no cold medication, nor any of the usual stuff that you take when you’re sick, so I improvised, and what I did worked better than any treatment I’ve ever done.
Thanks for the spam, Gail Lancaster
I love getting spam messages in my inbox. Nothing better than waiting on an important email only to see that some old woman wants me to have 7 Million British pounds. Sign me up NAO I say! Here, take my bank account information, social security number, and whatever else you may need.
I still can’t believe people are falling for this shit. Emails like this go out every single day. I’ve received them from Nigerian princesses, princes, the Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, lonely women in Russia, and many, many more. Shit, I just can’t see how this could be working at all. People can’t be this stupid, can they?

Customer perseverance FTW
Yesterday I went into the local Wal-mart to pick up a copy of Halo 3 ODST so that I may join in on the Halo Reach Beta, and document my experience on this website. Why Wal-mart, you may ask? Because according to the Internet, it was on sale for $30, and I like to save money, not that Wal-mart helps for that in a long run as it really is a detriment to society, but for how often I purchase goods, it seemed like a good idea.

There are going to be some changes… April fools!
Due to some recent complaints I’ve decided that I need to be more politicaly correct in my life. I’ve been getting a lot of emails recently about what I say here and on Twitter. I’ve realized that free speech isn’t really a valid concept, and that I should no longer speak my mind online.

RyanHaylett.com officialy launches
It’s finally here, he first real post of this website. This site has been on the back burner for a long time, slowly but surely becoming whole, and now it’s finally ready. As you may have guessed, my name is Ryan, and this is my personal web site. This will be the place where I add my opinions to the world in their full content, and not just in 140 characters.
