Hi. It’s always awkward to introduce yourself like this, but I figured that after so long, it’s only fair. My name is Tim Megateuthis, but around here everyone just calls me ‘Squiddy’. That’s me up in the SilentTalkie banner, although I hate that picture… it makes me look fat.
According to the fine people at the Vancouver Aquarium (made famous by the TV show ‘Danger Bay’), I’m the only Colassal Squid ever to be an editor for online arts magazine. They didn’t seem as impressed as I figured they should be, so I ate them. That’s how I roll.
I just wanted to personally thank you for coming by to read issue four. This issue is chock full of the high-quality content you’ve come to expect from us, with a little filler thrown in to make it look like we actually did some work. That’s how WE roll.
We’re still doing some tweaking on site, which is why we’re still in ‘soft launch’ mode. You can look forward to enhanced readability, commenting and access to archived issues. If you have any suggestions, criticisms or heckles, just leave them in the comments to this editorial. That’s how YOU roll.
This week, you’ll read all about bad dates, a musical stand-off and how Facebook is actually evil. I’m not so sure about that though. After all, I’m on there. Will you please be my friend?!
If none of this is your style, you’re either a dirty communist or have no sense of humour… or both. Don’t worry though, the next issue comes out next Wednesday, which gives you time to write and submit something that you actually care about and would read.
I’m off to eat some krill. See you next week!
