This is my personal homepage containing all kinds of tidbits that you might not want to know about me. See the Biography page for a more serious summary.
This homepage is more a list of things which I do so I can keep a perspective on everything I need to do myself and what I am busy with. My nickname has been 'Fuzzel' since around 1989 and I stole it from my cat named Fuzzy Wuzzy who laid to rest in peace the night of 2nd November 2003, she became the respectable age of 16. Because of her passing away I've stopped using that nick and left that part of my live behind me. Thus the nick dates back to the 'good old' Amiga and Demoscene days.
My motto is: It's good to be evil. Someone once asked me what I exactly meant with this, so I will explain to overcome further confusion about the inner workings of my brain: When you have a problem then there is the normal textbook way of solving the problem, but one can also devise their own way and use that which might not be directly a nice way to do it but it might just solve the problem much better. One should read it the same way as one says "Now that is a bad thing to do" while it actually means that it is a good, though probably a bit naughty, thing to do. Everything for fun as long as it doesn't go on the account of someone else of course.
unfix.org is my digital playground and digital home, it carries the stuff I produce and like to pass along to the rest of the internet. I am a genuine redhead and have, at least up to now, never died my hair which has been short at some times and long at the moment. My musical taste is quite diverse as can be found in the leisure section.
Something which seems to go wrong a lot is the pronunciation of my name, which is not as odd as it is a Dutch name and except for the Netherlands it doesn't seem to be a very common name. In French there is a more or less similar name "Jerome". If you want to know how you pronounce it 'correctly', you can listen to the following wav file: How to pronounce Jeroen (yə-ROON). I found out that people seem to find it easy to pronounce it by saying "Your Room" but then with an 'n' in the end, this comes pretty close already to the real pronunciation. Don't worry if you can't pronounce it, I am already very pleased that most people know my name and bind it to something positive.
To find out quite a bit more about me, simply google("Jeroen Massar").
Please follow this principle in order to avoid non-productive arguments with me: "Directly say what you want and mean, explain what is wrong, along with reasoning". I believe that it is very important to explain arguments as we are not necessarily always on the same line. A relevant read is Tact Filters by Jeff Bigler.
