He was one of the many people from the aniblog community who never followed my blog, and I\u2019d always remembered him as that guy who does all that work to make tables in WordPress. Outgoing, hardworking, charming, and handsome, kevo was the best man for the APR job. He crunched those numbers day in and day out, with no regard for his own health or for his voters&#8217; Nichijou preferences. He would have the APR post up every week, complete with quotes, reactions, and biased opinions, but he never took advantage of his position.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flomu.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/apr.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-6750 aligncenter\" alt=\"apr\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flomu.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/apr.png?resize=590%2C198\" width=\"590\" height=\"198\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flomu.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/apr.png?resize=590%2C198 590w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flomu.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/apr.png?resize=300%2C100 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/flomu.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/01\/apr.png?w=967 967w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>kevo kicked me<span style=\"line-height: 1.5em;\">\u00a0out of the APR two years ago because of my devotion to Nichijou.\u00a0I got reinstated in 2012 but kevo kicked me out before the end of the year because I didn&#8217;t send anything in.

In essence, he fooled you all into joining his team blog and you all waited eagerly to see if your opinion would be the one to be pasted in all its email-y, picture-less glory. kevo brought a sense of community to a scattered community joined only by twitter and some lame google group.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>rip in pieces kevo: otaku, statistician, and butthead<\/p>\n<h6>title is a reference to <a href=\"http:\/\/flomu.net\/blog\/2013\/07\/this-post-probably-will-bore-you\/\">rip o-new<\/a><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you may have heard, a prolific statistician\u00a0hung his hat up\u00a0yesterday (imgur link).
