As I was driving today I switched on the radio. I find myself doing this more and more lately because well, my music is starting to bore me. Every now and again I'll listen to NPR but I usually avoid it for a few reasons. I just imagine all these completely uninteresting, pretentious, seemingly trendy, indie kids listening to NPR to feel cultured or in tune with the world. And it just really bothers me. It bothers me like people that think they appreciate art because they like Andy Warhol, bothers me. I just feel like people try too hard to seem "artsy" or trendy or different/unique/interesting. And listening to NPR is going to make you seem smart or the least bit intelligent. I'm not saying listening to NPR makes you lame or that listening to NPR makes you a cool, cultured indie kid. All I'm saying is, I hate NPR.

I lost interest because I looked out my window and saw a mailman. My mind began racing with thoughts about what it would be like to be a mail lady. I think I would hate that silly outfit. What if I were the one that had to drive to a neighborhood, park my miniture truck and walk around carrying that heavy bag of wasted paper while being chased by the neighborhood dog? That would be the worst job. But it would kind of be cool to drive the truck since the driver's side is on the right side.

I bet that's weird.
