FOMO all around for me. Even this new layout was born from missing some of the stupider stuff I did as a kid, like hover effects that fundamentally messed up the design, using extra characters for decoration, and bordering absolutely everything. There's something about borders that really does scream Y2K layout even though I didn't do that often myself. I vaguely remember using bordered tables INSIDE divs and it's crazy how I couldn't do that now if I tried. I barely remember how I made it look right as a kid. Experiment for another day.
This layout is way more nostalgia-based. Low contrast, tiny divs, overly bordered, overly boxed. Header and footer on each post. I actually didn't make things like this often way back when but the whole messy emo collage thing is the last thing I want to see in 2026. The image is a collage of Odd Man Out photos taken by SLC homie Austin.
Also FOMO-ing Chicago rn. Combo Breaker is live and I can't help but think about how happy I was my second year meeting all my friends:



Miss all of you. None of us made it to actual CB this year but maybe we'll love the game again real soon.
