mariothoughts.waluigious.com


It's something unexpected... it's another blog. From the makers of Waluigious, from the mostly one, but sometimes three people who brought you Mario RPS, Mama Luigi's Deep Significance, Why Peach is Stupid, and Warp Whistle of Time, comes Mario Thoughts from a Mario Mind.

When you close your eyes, do you see Mario? When you look into the skies, do you think about Mario? When someone says, "I'm-a play some Atari-o" or "That Indian girl has a nice sari-o", do you mishear it as "Mario"? Then this blog just might be for you! Unsorted observations, musings and nerdy commentary on Mario's universe is only a fraction of what you'll be seeing there - links, art and more await. Think of it as Daily Waluigious, but less daily and more Waluigious.

Now, you might ask why this is necessary. Why not just write more actual Waluigious articles? Well, all the writers are occupied with higher education now - Computational Linguistics and Accounting don't allow five-hour stretches of creative time to do research for a full article very often. However, the shorter and more liberal style of the Mario Thoughts posts - note, posts, not articles! - leaves possibility to update more often and cover a much wider range of Mario topics. It's a win-win situation!

Mario Thoughts depends on your feedback just as much as the main blog does - we're happy about all comments, requests, responses, etc! There are already two posts there to give you a taste of the impending fun to be had.

Already commented (I really need to find something else to do other than check about ten websites every ten minutes), and I'm keen to see more content/writing.

Meh. I never got why it seems three quarters of people running every site I visit have to spend about half their life in further education and say it's a reason not to update more. Maybe that's just because with myself in the same situation, I still manage to update every half a day or so minimum with two or three new articles. Sorry if this sounds like overreacting, but I do rely on the internet for about half my daily entertainment, due to the fact video games can only last so long and TV shows recently seem so damn boring.

But I'll still be keen to see what's posted on this blog, despite thinking that what you consider 'short thoughts' is longer than the articles on most sites.

@cheat-master30:
Hm. I am envious of you if you manage to do all this, but... keep in mind, I have to use that creative wording I am so fond of in every Waluigious article. I could write a lot more (and faster) if I wrote in plaintext - but I think the "2-references-per-sentence" quality is the main contributing factor to the overall Waluigious atmosphere.

Well, I am not a man of few words. I am a man of many words.

And thank you!
