Cookie Inspector

Exclusive Interview with Cookie McInspectionface

We sit down with Cookie McInspectionface, the self-proclaimed Cookie Inspector of Neo-Brutalism. With a reputation for being mercilessly brutal in his critiques, we asked him what inspired him to become the scourge of the web design community.

How did it all start?

It started as a hobby, really. I was just a kid with a passion for cookies. I loved how they were the perfect blend of art and functionality. But then I realized that most websites didn't understand this delicate balance. They were either too bland or too obnoxious. And that's when I decided to take matters into my own hands.

What drives your passion for brutalism?

I'm driven by the desire to see websites that actually mean it. Websites that don't just slap some half-baked design together and call it a day. I want to see the web that's not just aesthetically pleasing, but also functional. I want to see the web that's not just about looking pretty, but also about getting the job done.

What's the most egregious example of web design gone wrong you've seen recently?

I recently came across a website that used a background image of a sunset on every single page, even the contact page. It was like they wanted to blind their users with a wall of oranges and pinks and yellows. It was a travesty, really.

Do you have a message for all the web designers out there?

Yes. I'd like to say that brutalism isn't just about aesthetics, it's about functionality. It's about creating a user experience that's actually worth having. Don't just slap up some pretty pictures and call it a day. Put some effort into it, people!

And finally, what's the most fun part of your job?

The most fun part of my job is probably the part where I get to tell people they're doing it wrong.
