On raincoats. Not really.

I'm going to do something absolutely epic when I reach my 100th post on SAu. I just don't know what that is yet. Or when it will be, of if I'll even reach one hundred posts before the world blows up.
I hope I do. I've had this blog for two years. That's sort of a big deal for me. Not very many things can stay awesome for me past a few months.

It's like water-resistant jackets vs. waterproof raincoats.
Both are anti-water and pro-dry. That's great. Water is lovely, but not when you don't want to be drenched in it.
So, initially, water-resistant seems the same as waterproof. They look about the same, they're having the same effect, until they're put to the test. After a good few hours of downpouring, someone in a water-resistant raincoat might feel a few drops here and there, and soon enough they're wet and have nothing to shield themselves except a thin piece of soaked polyester. If you're wearing a waterproof jacket though, you're going to be watching on and shaking your head--your nice, dry, head.
Temporary, water-resistant awesome things like bad television and, let's face it, most of my long-forgotten "good ideas", can only hold out so long against life's boredom and general Worldsuck.
I remember making this blog on the spur of the moment just to check it out, and now look. It turned out to be waterproof.
