"Hello World!"


Alright, so if you're reading this, then that means that you clicked on that creepy Pikachu face with the caption, "MACROS" underneath it to reach this page. Wanna know what this place is? I mean, it looks like the main blog: it's pink, has the same dimensions, and it's a blog, of course. Where are the posts? The Twitter stream? The archives and articles? Well, this is a different sort of thing. This secondary blog is a direct counterpart to Poke Profiles. I have no idea what to call it yet, but whatever it is, here it is!

This is a Macro page where DT and I will post funny captioned pictures relating to Pokemon. Essentially, we'll be applying Pokemon and aspects of the Pokemon universe to many internet memes in order to create a referential joke or pun. Just to clear up: this site isn't quite a ripoff of Memebase (partyl, but still not quite!), and this is not going to be the next big chapter of the site's direction: in comparison to the articles and such, this new section is still quite low-priority.

However, we want to provide content that is both true, respectable, and chalk-full of our own creative energy and drive. As much as I love writing articles and being snarky with words, however, not everyone does. With this subsite, I want to give visual internet-goers something look at and like, rather than read through. Essentially, this is how it's a counterpart to Poke Profiles: I want this photo blog to achieve a level of entertainment through an almost-opposite means.

With all that said, I'll post the first macro I've come up with, and I'll bid you all a good afternoon. Carry on, Profilers!
