About Thoeretica
Thoeretica is most interesting in that it was spawned from innocent typos. That's right - all of its sub-areas and itself are taken from typos that sounded "better" than the original. Other than that, Thoeretica is pretty good, I guess. Doesn't have that much of a purpose - just a new place to get files, a new forum to post in, and random crap to read. If you want to read it... I do recommend it though. Especially the disclaimer; you'd better read that, or Pooh will cut you. Thoeretica is a new place, and its vivid history has yet to grow, so we hope that you'll stick around here and watch it do just that. Plus there will be some nice, fast downloads in it for you if you do, provided you're a good, loyal user. You're a good man, let's have good times... otherwise, you're a dick.

Thoeretica Explained...
It was back in the grande ole' year of 2003 that Ben and Mike set out to create a site. They didn't really know what the site was to entail, or have any ideas besides buying the domain, and they didn't have the motivation. Why did they even speak about it? Well, you could say, it was a pipe dream. A dream that wouldn't materialize until the winter of 2005. Oh yes, it was a cold winter: the nights were dark, the snow deep, and the school-days long. No one quite knew how long it would be before this devastating winter would meet its end. The groundhog had just condemned all to six more weeks, and hope was running low.
"Let's buy Thoeretica already," Ben suggested one day. They'd heard of some nice deals on Bihira, and decided it was finally time. With only a weekend separating them from the dreaded midterms of Ashlandkabah, they finally purchased Thoeretica. And distraction was born! No studying took forth that weekend, only futzing around with cPanel and the many other novelties of Thoeretica's backend intricacies. It was good times for all...except those suffering in Asia from the tsunami. Poor, poor Asians.
Work on Thoeretica did not commence for some time. Mike uploaded his personal site and made changes to that, and Ben did other things which are secret! You hear that!? They both founded the Advisoray Forums, and didn't concentrate much on an actual site for Thoeretica.net. It just read "Thoeretica is a good man," which it was. Finally, after much of their grueling work had subsided, it was time to create their masterwork. It was time to create Thoeretica.
Keys were typed furiously and mouses killed incessantly as Mike skillfully pumped out a frontend layout while Ben thoughtfully produced an efficient and powerful backend CMS. Thoeretica was created, but its path had just begun. And to continue the hackneyed cliches, Mike kept typing crapful jargon that no one wanted to read. Witty epigrams spewed forth from his exhausted fingers like... okay, Thoeretica is here. Bye.
