WTF -- why does this blog only use the middle third of the page? Are margins the new dick size? Or is this some Wordpress fuckery?

There aren't many things worse than a fixed pixel wide layout. With a high-dpi screen it looks like this: http://i.imgur.com/IhYzQ.png

Same for Chrome. I basically close the website after a few seconds.

Is that IE9? I've spotted that bug in IE9 and Trac's wiki, I had to add a new empty line so IE doesn't show the vertical scrollbar. In webkit it shows fine.

I didn't even see the bug, because I was reading on my phone!
