I Hate It When The Computer Eats Stuff...
It ate my mom, it ate my finals paper for college, but I'm the most upset when it eats MySpace. So I did open mic again on thursday, as I normally do when it's on, and I met 3 very nice people that I was going to add to my MySpace, and when I got home to do this, my computer wouldn't access MySpace. So when I asked John Winters if I could add him to my MySpace, I couldn't help but laugh and look at Shaundra, saying, "this is so going in my blog." I love the pure stupidity of it all. Honestly, who does this? Everyone! We label it as normal, but really now... I must say it's ridicoulous. On saturday night (err, Sunday morning) I sat in a Denny's with Jonathan Anderson, Mike Richards, and Paul & Becky. Jonathan and Paul talked about how they played this video game and that video game for hours on end, and how they weren't fit to be called geeks because there's been kids in Japan who died at the computer because they didn't take care of themselves properly. Apparently, there are quite a few kids who spend 24-48 hour segments parked at internet cafes, eating, sleeping, everything all at these places, and they spoke of how those were the TRUE nerds and geeks and how they couldn't achieve that. I fell asleep in that Denny's at 2am... haha. I'm seeing our culture really getting overcome by technology. It's been argued that technology would be the downfall of mankind, but wasn't it always thought to be something like iRobot or something, where we create something we can't control?? Instead, what we have is something killing us silently, through late nights and stagnance. We don't move, we don't sleep, but we sit and stare for hours. I know this. I spent all day sitting in front of this stupid piece of plastic. I'm currently listening to Zorak sing "Don't Send in the Clowns" which I downloaded off of LimeWire, which I finally succumbed to a few days ago, after pledging never to touch the thing. Yes, I'm swamped with Monty Python sound clips and Brak singing really stupid songs about cheese , potatoes, and onions. DON'T TOUCH ME! Ha. "Onions make me gassy! I love to eat em though!" See what I mean? I now am that much closer to having music from as many genres as possible. I have about 46 hours of music on Windows Media Player, and I'm getting more daily. "Oh Wicked, Bad, Nauighty, Evil Zoot!" "You must tie her down on a bed, and spank her. After you have spanked her, you may deal with her as you like, and then, you must spank me, and me, and me!" I have the speech made by William Wallace in Braveheart. Hahaa. "You have come to fight as free men, and free men you are. What will you do without freedom? Will you fight? Fight and you may die, run and you will live, at least awhile, and dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this to that for a chance- just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies, that they may take our lives, but they will never take our freedom!!!" Yes. Anyway, off this wild tangent, what I'm saying is that technology is killing us passively. I'm a flaming music pirate, and I know it, and also I spent like 8 hours in front of this stupid compy. I have so much... wheee I LOVE music, I swear I'm like a kid in a candy shop with a $50 bill. YES! Oh I'm so stealing it, but for the pure joy of it, I love music, I love having a lot of it. I want an Mp3 player or an iPod sooo badly... So I can have all my music with me all the time... muahaha, so I can zone out anywhere and be ever so happy yay! Ok so I'm officially fallen into the folly of the masses... Goodbye...
