Step 1)

Lets break it down.

Is this a blog? You could say that, its mostly a place for me to dump slivers of my life and various opiniated articles. Although to be fair I dont believe in regularly updating or having a set schedule much in the same way that I dont believe in celery or Montblanc advertising.

Step 2)

Check out the VCR.

So how did this mind project get started?

In ‘02 or something I ninja’d this domain with no serious thought towards what I would do with it (or expectations that I would actually do something with it).

But first; History.

Force de Frappe is French for Striking force, it also defines my mad skill at scrabble but is most commonly attributed to the nuclear branch of the French military.

This thing blog has gone through several redesigns, re-launches and re-transfers since then and it will probably go through a few more which leads me to the future;

Step 3)

Where is my fucking laser gun?!

So where is this going?

The answer to that question is “meh”. This is the 5th (I think) time I have launched this as a blog and I never seem to be able to stick with it so to be honest;

Get rid of any and all expectations towards my written work since I am unpredictable and possibly into Avril Lavigne which pretty much tells you all you need to know.

I will update whenever I feel like it with awkward ambivalence towards my readership- I cant commit to a brand of ink, what makes you think I could commit to this?!

Step 4)

Death and taxes!

All written content is my own opinion, I make no promises and am in no way liable for any financial or mental loss as a result of your inability to process satire, sarcasm or irony like a normal free thinking (liberated?) person.

Step 5)

Give me the fucking money!

Topics?

Metallurgy, spyderco and edged tools in general, papeterie, fountain pens, gadgets, society, tacticool bullshit, gastronomy, design and other important words.
