My readers are weeeeeird

I’ve done a word frequency cloud of the most common search terms that end up on my blog logs for the past year. The result is… unexpected. The winner, by a large margin, leads to an random blog post (nsfw) from December 2013. A laaaaaaaaaaaarge part of the other popular terms are also nsfw-related.

Except for Michel Roux Senior’s Lemon Tart recipe.

I love my blog.

PS: for future reference, if you want to make a wordle-compatible frequency map, use the following script with a csv file that has the count in the first column and the word(s) in the second column:

#!/bin/bash

filename="$1"
while read -r line
do
  COUNT=`echo $line | cut -f1 -d','`
  TERM=`echo $line | cut -f2 -d',' | sed "s/ /~/g"`
  for (( c=1; c<=$COUNT; c++ ))
    do
      echo -n "$TERM "
    done
done < "$filename"

There’s no reason we can’t be civil

King Leonidas: [on being told the Persians are coming to parley] Captain, I leave you in charge.
Captain: But, sire…
King Leonidas: Relax, old friend. If they assassinate me, all of Sparta goes to war. Pray they’re that stupid. Pray we’re that lucky.
[He takes another bite of apple, as the Captain notices a Persian soldier, still alive]
King Leonidas: Besides, there’s no reason we can’t be civil, is there?
Captain: [stabs the Persian] None, sire.

Xerxes: Come Leonidas, let us reason together. It would be a regrettable waste. It would be nothing short of madness for you, brave king, and your valiant troops to perish. All because of a simple misunderstanding. There is much our cultures could share.
King Leonidas: Haven’t you noticed? We’ve been sharing our culture with you all morning.

My morning wake-up call purrs

Ever since Katy left for Blighty, Pavel has become uber clingy. I’ll wake up with him sprawled all along my back, or sometimes, like this morning, with him on my pillow with his back (if I’m lucky)  or his butt (if I’m not) pressed to the side of my head.

Other times, I’ll just wake up with him perched on the crossbeam looking down at me like a furry gargoyle, chittering at me to go and feed him.
