Existential crisis mode.
What is a Mega-Zine? I Googled it, and found some sort of page-flip publishing software, which confused me even more

I aim to misbehave

There used to be a Wikipedia page for it, but they deleted it.
It was basically a letters page on Teletext that ran for almost 17 years. People could write in poems, jokes, lists, their general thoughts on a particular subject, or in my case, completely nonsensical poppycock with no bearing on anything other than my dreams and imagination.
There was a guy (or several over the years) called WLW who would write short responses to our letters.
Mega-Zine (or 'Zine) ended in March this year, due to the recession and the fact that the Teletext bosses actually read it one day and realised how much money they had been spending so teenagers could say to other teenagers "What do you get if you cross a sheep and a kangaroo? A dent on your bonnet!"

I know there aren’t many people looking at this anymore… but I have made the decision to stop paying for the VR hosting and to let the domain lapse.
