A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. And a turd would stink even if you named it after the latest Gucci perfume. Over the past few years and a few dozen posts, I've used the name 'A Little Lunacy!' for my blog(s) on WordPress and Blogger. It was a spur-of-the-moment idea, something conjured out of thin air with hardly a thought lent to its meaning. "It sounds catchy," was a good enough reason to persist with it for almost a decade.
Years passed and the trickle of posts that I used to publish, dried up. Several attempts to resuscitate the dying body of words and phrases yielded no results. There appeared to be way too much lunacy inside and around me to sustain a sensible or meaningful attempt at writing. 'A Little Lunacy!' had breathed its last.
Fast forward to 2016, and here's my latest attempt to start writing on a regular basis. Why have I named it Ultramatix? What the hell does it even mean? I tried giving it an expanded name - UsuaLly TeRrible rAmblings (the letters in caps spell ULTRA, geddit?), but frankly that was too embarrassing to admit publicly. So, as of now, it means nothing, It simply rolls off the tongue with ease and has a tech-y/rebellious vibe to it. Just go with it, will you?
All that remains to be seen is if this one turns out to be something to cherish or yet another turd that will be flushed down the toilet swiftly. We'll soon find out.
P.S.: Some of the more interesting(?) posts from 'A Little Lunacy!' can be read below. Take a gander if you have nothing better to do or if you hate your life and would rather read a weird little man's inane ramblings.
