I was over at pat murphy's house a while ago and we were just hanging out shooting the breeze and watching the tube. While in the back of the room Kyle was hunched over pat's computer staring at the screen in silence. I kept looking back at him and he just kept staring, as if hypnotized. I finally got up and saw that Kyle was reading page after page of Diesel Sweeties, a horrible horrible webcomic (as opposed to all those hilarious webcomics out there). After fifteen minutes of this i finally got up and asked him:
"Kyle, why are you reading that?"
"It's funny"
"Are you sure? I dont hear you laughing or anything. Besides that i think scientists have actually proved that Diesel Sweeties is one of the five unfunniest things on the planet."
"Just because im not laughing out loud doen't mean it isn't funny."
So i looked over his shoulder and read one. Some guy was like "I'm gonna go to art school" then this girl says "why, to study art?" and he was like "yeah, the art of sex" and then she's like "i have to go smoke now" then a robot shows up and says some stupid shit or something and all and all it's the worst thing you've ever read.
So i returned to the couch and Kyle kept on reading. This went on for like another hour. He never once laughed, or smiled. Then he got up and left.
I think the thing i hate the most about the internet is it's like a giant expansion draft for the "talent pool" and every idiot who ever had his drunken friends laugh at one of his jokes is now a comedian and every idiot who ever drew something that kind of looked like inuyasha is now an artist and every idiot who ever downloaded acid pro and threw some MASHUPS of two terrible bands together is now a musician.
I think there was a point in all this, but i cant really figure it out......
