As a technical retard, I was easily deceived by Blogger and their goddamn easy setup. I breezed through, only to realise I have now got my own blog... Now what?... Oh damn...
Stuck for ideas, headache getting worse as diggers arrive outside, Fanfare Ciocarlia unable to blast through the din of incessant un-oiled machinery outside, I opt to do a bit of research. First off, I have to do something which I never thought I'd do before and sign up to Twitter.
I have a look at one, of the trending topics on Twitter, named "Snow Leopard", it sounds like it has all the makings of a great thread, with a crazy title which could be innuendo for some taboo or what not... But no. It's a thread (or tweet) about a Mac OS X upgrade.
Lo and behold! Things get worse. The first tweet states;
"Who wants to meet up at Festival City iStyle store to get a copy of Snow Leopard when it's available? Join in the fun!"
Stop the press just a f****** second. How the m*****f****** c****** hell can someone f****** have f****** fun f****** queueing for a c****** upgrade? That f****** upsets me when that is the first tweet I f****** read is expressing joy at the prospect of queueing.
I'll try and soldier on through the thread, maybe things will pick up.
"Snow Leopard is £25 in UK, this seems an odd conversion rate from the $29 in the US! I worked it out as about £18 being ripped off a tenner!"
This maybe the technological era, but there really is no need for that tsunami of stupid attacking poor readers. Maybe his calculator on his Mac has stopped working.
During the ten minutes I have been on this Tweet there have been 382, no 393, no 401 more posts, and ever rising. during the time it took to write "Ever rising" there were five more posts. But still the same inanity. Someone tries to make a funny about snow leopard being a pet, someone is spamming their products online, but they are all just saying snow leopard, and nothing else. What is this meant to mean? I trawl through different subjects, but they all say the same nothing, which, oddly enough, is of no relevance to me whatsoever. Is this technology?
Seeking solace after a rather traumatising fifteen minutes of 'technology' I turn on AC Slater, and gander at Facebook to check on what friends are doing. Slightly less inane, yes. But I can't help but think that we shouldn't be allowed to publish our feelings to the masses this freely. With adverts being spewed across chats in between two people on Internet, how long before we start to accidentally spew another VW advert mid-conversation?
Therefore. I am starting my own blog. My hope is that by immortalising my own thoughts on this internet thingo, that people my stumble across this and never wish to use the internet again. That by boring themselves by reading my blog they will realise that they have extravagantly wasted part of their life reading a meaningless blog, and will never be so perverted as to intrude on a randomers life again.
I hope that within a years time I never hear LOL being used in a face-to-face conversation ever again.
