The Virgin Post

Here, anyway. I write a bit on my Myspace blog (puke, gag, fuck that place). I've been poking around lately, reading a lot of this lady, who is absofreakinglutely hilarious. I never have kept my Myspace blog up to date, it just doesn't occur to me. Myspace is just like this seething, horrible, popularity sort of contest, glitter driven social site that makes me scream every time I'm in public and have to hear that word out of any teeny-bopper's mouth. Or, even worse, at some nerd coffee shop where people have nothing better to do than talk about the evils of government and society and how things should be different. At three o'clock in the morning all whacked up on caffeine, and it's almost always overflowing with nerds wearing black, that no one understands, hunched over a 12 inch laptop. That always kills me, if my laptop were that small, I'd break the fucker. I love living in Austin.

Hello world.

....later that day...

As I was running my errands today, I was thinking of what I might write about to add to this, because, honestly, that shit up there, kind of boring. It just got me thinking about the internet in general, I can't believe some of the crap I've come across. In my crawlings I've read some moaning about the 'me generation.' I don't think it's so much a generational thing, but more just a mind set, because it isn't just young people. I've known a good number of people under twenty five that don't run around constantly worried about "Number One." That's refreshing. A quick gander at Myspace, Youtube, Livejournal, or any other social networking site type (and I'm aware Youtube and LJ are more than networking, but it's a heavy feature) and you'll see all kinds of drama. There's this collective attitude of "I'm going to air my dirty laundry on the internet (a public forum, mind you) and expect some retard NOT to make fun of me."

That will never happen. There's always some troll, or even just some innocent bystander (damn the innocent bystanders!), that's going to take the opportunity to get some laughs. I just want to slap people and tell them "If you don't want people to make fun of you, don't air your stupid dramatic crap on the internet, a public forum, mind you." It just doesn't seem to occur to them. Do they have some need to be dramatized? So, the moral of this, you can try, but you will more than likely not find my dirty, dramatic life here, or anywhere on the internet.

Thank gods I'm not that stupid.

Now that I am no longer virgin, I must go wash.
