The Epic Zone. Bob Smash is a moron. HTML is nothing more than text.

In a recent "Random Act of Senseless Violence" (otherwise known as: too short and crappy to be considered an article) posted on bobsmash.com, Bob Smashes the greatest rant site in the world with this heart wrenching comment: "Epic Zone is a retard. He's running his own list and missed some of Phagweb's posts because I didn't list them. Either do your own list or don't. I ain't doing all your homework for you. Want proof? "I missed the site because Bob Smash doesn't have it on the list. Oh well, it's on mine now." Dork."

When I read this information I was stunned. I guess the saying is true, you really do learn something new everyday. You see, instead of saying something like "The Epic is a retard.", which would imply that I have a disorder and slober all over people, he calls the Epic Zone retarded. Think about this, the Epic Zone is a web site which means it is a jumble of HTML coding. So apparently the HTML coding I've created on my Dreamweaver has a mental disorder. I guess this means I can collect donations in honor of my retarded HTML block. In fact, I've gone as far as creating my very own t-shirt to display that, not only am I not ashamed, I am proud to be the owner and creator of one of the first ever pieces of mentally handicapped HTML on the planet. Here's the shirt I have made in honor of my beloved Epic Zone:

The image is actually bigger, I was just saving you the trouble of having the horizontal scrollbar.

So if it turns out that my site is retarded, it would be the first rant site to be retarded. However that doesn't mean that it's the only one that is. Lets take a look at Bob Smash and identify possible ways that it might be retarded.

Bob Smash uses right click disabling Javascript. Perhaps the most annoying and most useless tool in the world. Only newbies can't get by this simple snippet of code. Hint: Disabling JavaScript on your browser ends up disabling all javascripts including the annoying one found on Bob Smash. "No the hell you don't"? It should say "You bet your ass I just did."
Layout is too cluttered. Imagine Bob Smash is a wall. Now take random pieces of shit and throw them on the wall. Now you understand how this layout is.
Bob has taken the work from the late and great DrakeGTA and acted as if it were his own. I personally wish Drake were still on the internet rocking faces, but at least I'm still here.
He doesn't include Phatweb or Pageskymeister because they've talked badly about him. Although I can't prove that, I bet it's true. Just look how he talks about Phatweb by calling it Phagweb. Even though I included Phatweb in my article entitled "10 Sites That Wish They Were More Like Mine" I still am willing to admit that his writing is 20 times as good as anything you'll ever create.

Usually I would include a 5th reason, but I feel I've made my point. The truth is, the Epic Zone isn't a retard. My HTML is far from retarded, it's a straight A student. Bob Smash on the other hand, lets just say that his HTML plays D & D all day and spent its allowance on World of Warcraft gold. Enough said, the Epic Zone is great and I've had the fan feedback over the years to prove it
