Prologue
And they said of him that his life was pointless, but he said onto them: "My life isn't pointless", and they said thereof, "touche" and yet did nothing, even under the threat of a righteous claymore (replica). And so he took it upon himself to pay homage to his own life thus: Well, maybe my life is pointless as I can't think of anything to put on this web page. I can tell you my name if you like? No? I won a prize once. It's named after someone who actually did something cool (in nerd world) by designing the mechanisms by which quantum mechanics (among other things) is described mathematically, and also the mechanisms by which objects may rotate realistically in computer games such as Tomb Raider etc. It wasn't me though. I wonder did he get a prize for doing that? Probably not, which surely makes me his superior. Purely out of spite for his brilliance, I'm not going to mention his name. I resent the fact that there is no prize after moi. I have a back-up plan, in case this web page doesn't gain me some recognition. I am now married, and if I achieve nothing in the next few years I will decide to have children. Perhaps one will be enough. I will use the child to validate my own life, using them as a channel to fulfill all the chances I've missed and providing me with a raison d'etre. I am worried that my fiance is a little too stable however. My child must have to fight for his (it will be male) sanity in order to become a fanatic thinker of his day. Of course! I will provide the troubled background, and my fun carefree wife will provide a stable footing necessary for his self advancement. If she tries to back out I will sue her. By the way, "moi" is French for "me".
