Damn broke. That's what an average student gets when he buys a new car and so independently wishes to pay for it on his own.

About ScrewedProphet.com

In Summer of 2003, a self-proclaimed intellectual/atheist/writer/singer named MJ came to know the existence of weblogs, more commonly known as blogs, courtesy of honeylemon (Janjan) from IRC. He thought instead of waiting months for his articles to get posted on Peyups.com, why not establish his own web presence by keeping a blog?

MJ then set up MushExchange.tk, and posted his first three articles, Wish Ko Lang, Letter of Secrets: A Sequel to Wish Ko Lang, and Songs on the Radio in February of 2003. The posts were written in English-Filipino. After switching to a more seriously effective mode (English, for that matter), he came up with 10 Things I Hate About Being Alone (Lovelife) and I Am Over You.

Getting fed up with mush writing, and being a little worse than desperate during those times, he settled for a curse-hate blog. And this change signified a major revamp which ranged from the template, the name of the website, and of course, the mood and tone of writing. Thus, the Screwed Prophet. The second setup started out with a very dark mood. The template was dominated by black and other dark colors. The articles, moreover, were totally disturbing. Self-pity, curse, and hate were the bloodlines of the website.

Upon the realization that no one dared visit the website, let alone post comments, for its dark mood, MJ switched to loving life mode. The name of the website was not changed, only the template and the mood. A lot of people hailed the switch, and we have recorded a major increase in hits and comments.

Now, you have ScrewedProphet.com. The author doesn't stick to just one topic anymore. He writes about whatever he likes. Reviews and comments on different products, events, and other what-have-they. Rants and raves, thoughts on different things, light and heavier, more intellectual alike.
