I'm getting so sick of the word portfolio. I hate the way the word looks, I hate the way it sounds. I hate that everyone has a portfolio and I hate that 90% of them suck. I never really thought about the word before, but now it hurts my ears and bothers my eyes.

I'm also getting sick of the word design, it's ****** everywhere. Everyone's a designer, everyone also has their own design firm. It bothers me that the word sounds like dezine but for some reason there's a 'g' in it.

I'm not clicking on anyone's portfolio unless I have reason to believe there's more there than a clever .gif and their customized gradient. I don't want to see things people made in their intro to design class or things a 14 year old made before church with his haxzord copy of photochop.

I'd also like to add that I'm so ****** impressed with the way you painted over a picture with Corel Draw. How did you ever think of that?

My portfolio consists of a savings account, mutual funds, and some stock.

I had to finish a website last night to present for my web desi-- final, but I enjoyed that.

Today I had to sit for 2 hours and watch people present their websites, I found one of the sites interesting (a clever use of PHP), the rest of them were fine on their own, but seeing them all back to back...

My Portfolio... My Portfolio... My Portfolio... My Portfolio... My Portfolio... My Portfolio... My Portfolio...


I'm fine with the words 'port' and 'folio' seperately, I think three 'o's is just too many for one word to have.
