splash word references
200% hyperbole!
most of you who have looked at my website atleast once would have seen that little bar at the top with a text marquee; inside that text marquee being a randomized splash text. well, some if not most of those splash texts that i put in a neat little json file for it have references. so, here is a list of EVERY motive/reference for every splash text. here goes nothing:
"I'll meet you in hell" is Hyperlaser's Phinisher line from PHIGHTING!"Into the valley of Death, rode the six hundred" is a line from The Charge Of The Light Brigade"WAR IS PEACE. FREEDOM IS SLAVERY. IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH. is the Party's slogan from 1984 (go read it if you haven't)!"MEET YOUR DEMISE!!!" is Biograft's Phinisher line from PHIGHTING!"Vorsprung durch Technik." is Audi's brand slogan."Big on quality, Lidl on price" is (obviously) Lidl's slogan."Think Different." is Apple's slogan."The Wow Starts Now!" was Windows Vista's slogan."Don't be evil." was Google's slogan. Was."Where do you want to go today?" was Microsoft's slogan back in the (late) 90's/early 00's."Every little helps." is Tesco's slogan."Anything is possible if you know the laws of Physics" is (something similar to) a line said in The Big Bang Theory."Just DO IT!" is Nike's slogan."Broadcast Yourself." was YouTube's slogan.

WHAAAAAAT?" is one of my own, in reference to when you get a Segmentation Fault error in C++."Express Yourself" was a campaign for Windows 8."They've gone to plaid!" is a reference to the movie Spaceballs."Make the Most of Now."... i don't know."At the Speed of Light..." is a reference to one of Dimrain47's songs fittingly named "At The Speed Of Light"."Welcome to the Internet!" is one of my own, in reference to the older eras of the internet."Your free web page is waiting... once again" is Neocities' slogan."HYPERNOVA!!!" is one of my own, with reference to hypernovae."It's COMEBACK SEASON!!!" is one of my own, with reference to a 'comeback' in a game like PHIGHTING! or Splatoon."Death brings life." is the name of Vine Staff's passive from PHIGHTING!"FOR HUMANITY!!!!!!!!" is one of my own, partially referential to one of Vulta's songs named 'For Humanity'."Then they rode back, but not... Not the six hundred." is another reference to The Charge Of The Light Brigade."What do you think is inside of a black hole?" is one of my own, with reference to black holes of course."Everything all boils down to Physics." is one of my own, in reference to Physics and its deep roots in everything we know."IRQ 14 PRIMARY IDE is my favourite song." well, it was my favourite song. referential of Master Boot Record's Interrupt Request album, which contains IRQ 14 PRIMARY IDE."Your computer has virus." is a reference to a meme where Baljeet (Phineas and Ferb) says "Hello your computer has virus"."Is your fridge running? Better go catch it!!" is a reference to an old prank call punchline."The opposite of a vacuum is a plenum." true fact."16. 16. 16." is a reference to No Man's Sky, as the number 16 is a motif frequently repeated throughout the entire game."Pneumonoultramicroscopicsilicovolcanoconiosis is a lung disease caused by inhaling very fine dust." is both a meme of the longest word and an actual disease you can contract."Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A..." is the konami code"Webmaster of the Woven Webpages." was just a cool title i tried to make up."Vanilla isn't my favourite flavour." is a reference to Cookie Clicker and how i like modded games more than unmodded ones (vanilla). i would chose vanilla as an ice cream flavour though."Overseer of the Viridian Isles." another cool title i tried to make up in reference to old roblox factions."DirectX 9 supported." is just a joke of my own that my older website could have been supported on like Windows 98."Did you know that magenta isn't a real colour?" true fact; Magenta is not on the visible light spectrum."Have you ever thought, that since microwaves use microwaves to microwave food, that those microwaves that microwave the food might be mini-microwaves being launched at the food?" microwaveception"Do u kno da wae?" is a reference to the Ugandan Knuckles meme."I don't play golf." is a reference to a line by Mr. Birling in An Inspector Calls."Microscopic... Macroscopic...?" is one of my own."In chronological order?" is one of my own."What is your favourite number?
