RARGLE FRARGLE

IT'S MAH MOTHERF***IN BIRTHDAY.

Since content is still elusive (hence the lack of posts) I'm doing a journal. And you guys are going to comment, because it's my birthday.

You know what I did today? I fell asleep at the computer, woke up at 5:30, read my book, listened to jazz and fake rain to relax, and about 10 I got outta bed. At this point, I maxed out the volume and showered to dragonforce. It was amazing.

I went to my CIT interview, and I'm pretty sure I did pretty good. Then I came home and played vidya games till mah parteh, where I got presents I didn't expect and it was dope. I also beat borderlands again.

It's been a great birthday.

Look, readers, content seems to be lacking. I really need some inspiration, or the blog is going down. I wish I were kidding, but I don't like journal posts. I make an exception for my birthday, but really. Help me out here.

You know, Conor,

I actually shed a tear. But it's from being up for twenty hours straight, which sucks, by the way. Though damn, twenty. As to you writing, I have mixed feelings that I'll keep to myself until I see any of your writing. Maybe do a trial run with some facebook notes?

Hello, everyone. I thought I'd bring in some content today, by discussing everyone's favorite thing. You know, that one thing that you all know, that you all love and occasionally watch on screen.

That's right, today's post is about pokemon.

Has anyone ever considered how big ash's balls must be (metaphorically speaking, of course. Hear me out.)? This kid sets off, aged ten, with a rat that has power over lightning, and tackles dinosaurs, fire-breathing dragons, deities that control time, magical beasts that can alter reality, birds made of fire, ghosts, psychic freaks, living rocks, genetically engineered superbeasts, and more. These sights would terrify you sane humans, and yet this kid is willing to take them on, with little more than a brilliant strategic mind and a hard-earned arsenal of creatures he keeps in little scientific wonder balls. (Pun intended).

If even a garados were to show up, humanity would be on site with a tank, a reporter, a crazy college student, three apache attack helicopters, an infantry platoon and a bob marley tribute band. Mostly the military forces. They'd cut the fuckin' thing up and try and do shit with it. The kind of response would be justified, I mean, this is a sea serpent that can launch monthereffin' lasers out of it's mouth, create whirlpools, and undergo freakishly intense bouts of evolution.

And this ten year old kicks its ass.

I salute you, Ash Ketchum, for being the second best sacked man on the planet.

I would, however, love to see all the animals on earth spontaneously replaced with pokemon. I'd ride a freakin' dragon to school, and shit. Twould be dope.

Journal time? I went to a bitchin' party today, with nerf, cake, soda, LAN parties, halo, MW2, and bad singing. Epicly dope.

Short and sweet. I love you, readers.

A Note

I'll be taking a short haitus, as I feel quality is dropping. It won't last more than a week. Two, tops. I just need to get some content for this thing.

- Professor Plum

The Creative Process

Because I have been desperately low on content this week, I thought, for fulfillment and mayhap a bit of irony, I'd talk to you people about what the creative process is like for this thing. Maybe it'll help you understand why I appreciate you lot so much.

6:40 AM: Woken up. Groan.
6:41-7:30 AM : Prepare for school, breakfast, shower, etc. Spark of creativity is not awake yet.
7:55 AM : Arrive at school. Talk to friends. Take note of things that inspire you for future use on blog.
8 something AM: 1st period ends. Forget everything you were going to write about. Repeat as needed, or until it's time to go home.
3:05 PM : Head home. Reflect on day, etc. Sort of recall things you were going to write about.
3:10 PM : Ride home. Be angry for forgetting what you were going to write.
3:30 PM : Arrive home. Forget about everything for an hour or two.
6:00 PM : Begin writing blog post. Become angry because whatever idea will not turn into content.
6:10 PM : Take break.
7:30 PM : See blog post open in tab you've forgotten about. Return to writing.
8: 00 PM : Post will still not come to life. Rage.
8:10 PM Give up/cop out and make shitty post about whatever.

Yeah, writing these isn't exactly easy. Coming up with content even on a flexible schedule like this really makes me respect comic writers.

Anyone who wishes to help should email me at cmdnA12@gmail.com (like most things, there is a story behind that username. Inquire if you're interested, bored, whatever.

Do me a favor and contribute. All these journal-type posts piss me off. I dislike them greatly.

Two Discoveries Today

One: Applications make you feel inadequate. Checking the "no" box breaks your freakin' heart. Not fun.

Two: Sweat Pants are the greatest invention since sex. Or sliced bread, if you feel conservative.

Which reminds me. Fox Noise is now claiming that the snowstorm in Washington D.C. disproves global warming (which is now dubbed climate change, actually. Neat.) I practically died laughing.

Back to sweat pants. I am currently experiencing a level of comfort I haven't felt since I went commando for a day. And this is almost as good. Now, maybe I should combine the two...

Enough discussing my beloved first mate. The point is, Fox Noise is stupid, sweat pants rock, applications suck, and people need to respect you when they ask you for advice.

Yeah. Look, I won't name any names, but when you go to someone asking for help, you don't call them a douchebag and such. You thank them, even if you already knew what they were going to say. Got it? (You may have picked up, I'm venting.)

Apologies for lack of content. /something/ good will be up this weekend, that's all I can promise. Sorry, all. I know its below average, I'm working on it, I swear.

Poof!

Down that Post comes.

Apologies for disgusting the lot of you. The bleeding must have spawned a loss of blood to my brain.

As an apology, I'd love to make a cake, but I have things to do. So, maybe next week.

Another Milestone

That I forgot to mention.

We reached a new record for comments recently, 12 on a single post. Way to go, readers. Also, another anon has appeared. Does this 'Legs' wish to reveal their identity?

SUPARTYBOWL!

I'm coming to terms with how nasty my finger is right now. Ask about it tuesday. I'll show you.

Seriously though, it's fucking gross, smells funny, and even now I have difficulty coming to terms with the fact that I'm talking about my goddamn finger. Jeebas. I just spent two minutes staring at it. It's still wierd.

So, a LOT went down this weekend. From awesome parties I'll tell you about, superbowls you don't need to hear about, and fucking things up with an ex you don't get to hear about, this was a full two days. And I have a whole nother! Woo!

So, I started off the weekend awake. Then, about 1, I fell asleep. Later, it was 9, so I got up, went to martial arts at 10, kicked ass for an hour and a half, came home, showered, and went late to chris's birthday party I said I'd be early for. But his birthday is actually monday, and that was saturday. Whatever.

So, I arrive, and in short,there was music and it blasted out my eardrums with awesome, chris played his song, the girls ditched, we watched some movies, made a few ourselves, went nuts, shot each other with nerf guns, went on walks at three AM, played uno at five, slept at six, woke up at 9, had a delicious breakfast, and played on the computer in everything but that order.

Take a moment to realize that's one long sentence.

So, to elaborate on my favorite bits in chronological order of remembering the details of them:

That three AM walk? Awesome. We snuck out, which makes you feel hella alive. Like, amazing. The sky was this neat amber color, and we all felt pretty good. I was warm inside my jacket, too. We spent a good 10, 20 minutes walking. It was pro.

There was also the moviemaking. We busted out a camera, switched to vid mode and then recorded the majority of the first few hours. Later, we watched us doing things we'd done earlier. It was funny and awesome at the same time.

There was also the movie watching. We watched parts of avatar (the good parts, anyway), inglorious basterds (which I didn't like as much as I'd thought I would), and some of Casino Royale, which was awesome. Except when the aston got trashed. Chris, Jon, and I all wanted to cry. It sucked epically.

The music bit? I sat in a room as a piano, a drum kit, and a guitar with a REALLY nice amp blasted at me. It was amazing. I could've come to the awesome. (Gross story related to that. Ask me sometime, if you're really interested).

So yeah. That's as much of the party as I'm going to tell you about.

The superbowl: The Saints won. And that's all I have to say about that.

The end. Fin. Finito, gone, done, over. Exit, stage left and or right. Comment.

Rooting for the little guys

You may have noticed, I love it when other people blog.

It's great. Problem is, this is a huge deal. Many people give up.

An exception, however, appears to have... appeared. So this mini post is to plug Zak Kagel's Blog, Because We Can, (protip: that underlined bit is a link) as it appears (again, really?) to have potential. I just commented on the war post. It was pleasant to vent.

The idea behind his blog is a fairly neat one, if not particularly novel. He posts controversial topics. People argue about them in the comments. It's working fairly well, and yours truly contributes.

So, if you readers would benefit his kind blog with your traffic, I'm sure he'd appreciate it. Darwin knows I would.

This weekends post will probably be up on Monday (sorry for the wait) as I'm a bit busy. Hope none of you mind. Just remember: I care.

The Big 2k

My fingers have adjusted to typing like this. And being that I just reached two thousand hits on this thing, it seems a post with some semblance of decency is in order.

So, to business.

I read 1001 Ways to Be Romantic when I was eight. It was a fine read. Afterwards, my family sometimes joked that I was the Love Doctor. Paging Dr. Love, etc. I never dreamed I actually would, though. Without breaking love doctor/patient confidentiality, I can tell you that it feels like I'm responsible. A little like playing god, I suppose. I mean, I even argued with myself. While this isn't quite rare, it showed me exactly what I was toying with here.

Relationships aren't something new to me. I had my first girlfriend when I was six, and I'd say I showed her a fairly good time. True, I didn't have another till 7th grade, but whatever. Point is, I've experienced them. I know the joy they can bring to people. And I know how much breakups can suck.

That is, epically. And people come to me, asking me what to do. They reveal intimate details of their love lives to me, and ask me, /me/, for advice. This is a powerful thing, because people can take this things to heart.

I'm just saying, I needed to vent a bit. It's sort of scary. Not really, because, I mean, I /know/ these people will move on. I'm just scared of making them do something they don't want to. Thank you all for listening.

I needed that.

Anyway, I want to apologize for bashing Shannon. Not that it really matters to me how she feels about it (I feel my actions are morally right, at least on some level) but it's gotten a bit stale this past week, which is not how I like this thing to be. I treasure all of you readers, and entertaining you is the reason this thing keeps going.

Though I do recognize that some of you felt it was wrong. I apologize for offending you. Not Anonymous, but Conor and Ian, apologies if it really bothered you.

I feel as though this should have more content than it does.

I've been listening to Yellowcard again. I'd forgotten how nice they are. Rough Landing, Holly and Ocean Avenue are my favorites, currently. Is anyone else a fan? I'd also recommend Rise Against and a youtube artist called MysteryGuitarMan. The former is a fantastic group, and the latter is creative and funny. His videos are also rather upbeat, which I approve of.

Which brings me to happiness. I find it odd that I, of all people in these circumstances, should be talking about a lack of joy. I mean, I find much fun in life. I lead a rather good one, I'd say. Good music, good friends, and people listen to what I have to say. I'm not ignored, I get girlfriends now and then, and I attend rockin' parties. I get orange soda, a 360, and a guitar I continue to swear I'll learn to play.

So I'm pretty happy. And I feel others should be too.

Yet, when I attend my government-required self betterment, I notice that people aren't happy. All the drama, the bad relationships, the breakups, the dying over projects, the getting ditched, the friends turning to drugs and even those little insults everyone throws at you all add up. People have reason to be unhappy.

But we can fix that.

We can help deal with the rampant sadness. Just be nice, people. Be nice, and don't do drugs and be careful what you say and be careful what you do. Because people can get fucked up. And it isn't a pleasant thing to see.

I guess what I'm getting at is we would all be happier if we all laid off the harshness a bit.

So go, readers. Go out and be nice. Make the world a little biddy bit better.

It Appears Shannon has taken down her blog.

Neat.

I have band aids on my fingers. Typing is evil.

enjoying the world of dark with these 3-D glasses. great day.

A Letter

Dear Anonymous,

First, back off my readers. They have nothing to do with what I write here. If you have a quarrel with me, say so. But don't vent your hate towards me on them. It makes you look even less intelligent than you already appear.

I don't know who you are. I'm interested, but at this point, it matters little. From your post, it's clear you disapprove of what I post here. And that's fine. Everyone's entitled to an opinion. It's just, yours is stupid.

Before I go much further, lets set a few facts straight regarding Shannon and I:
You must understand, I operate on little information. Well, I know plenty of things (need a napalm substitute? Come to me.) but with Shannon, I go with what I know. I know she acts like her life is terrible. I know she acts like I ruin it (with this, especially. More on that later.) I know she acts like we could be friends, like we could forget that we have nothing in common (more on that later, too). She acts like a lot of things. Thing is, I am, deep down, a scientist. I may act like a banana, but do to lack of potassium and other banana-ish bits, I am not. Without proof, things are as good as dead to me. I have no proof with Shannon. Thus, to me, all those acts are false. False.

Now, about this blog:

This blog is an interesting thing. It started, admittedly, in order to laugh about stupid things Shannon did. A bit harsh, to be sure, but it's gone on to be more than a Shannon hate session. I discuss life, love, and other things here. To deny so is to be blind and ignorant. All the same, in recent times, things have happened. I'll be the first to admit I had a hand in it, but there is no denying that Shannon is not without fault. Like I said, Shannon, stay the fuck away from my personal life.

Which brings me, of course, to Shannon and I personally:

We had, as you lot know, a relationship. Three weeks of lovey-dovey-she-never-kissed-me shit. We hugged, we talked (to a degree; recall, this was a while back) not much exciting, to be honest. As said previously, that wasn't love. Much more interesting, in fact, was what happened after she dumped me (laugh it up, see if I care). Several of the earliest events led to this blog (the cracker incident, writing in my planner, that time she kissed me in P.E.), but things hardly end there. Most of you will have, by now, seen what she's written. That, and the phone call recently, contributed to the more recent slew of hate posts. These, I admit, were harsh.

I don't regret them.

What I say here is for the benefit of my readers and I. It is not intended to be a mob starter, or a reason to hate anyone. Moreover, I'll be the first to admit I'm a master of half truths, but what I write here is genuine. I do my best to admit my own faults, but fact is, in these cases, I appear to be the victim.

Shannon, if you read this, know that I write what I see. I don't exactly attempt to hide your part in it, but like I JUST SAID, I admit my own faults. I'd apologize, but I still don't regret them. If this is actually hurting you, stop reading it. Or give me a good reason to stop. Hearing that I'm hurting someone I perceive as a drama queen isn't quite motivation.

Anonymous, you know who you are. I have my suspicions. Your opinion is fine, but yell at me. Not the readers. They aren't the ones sparking the trouble, now are they?

Readers, you must have an opinion. As you've said, this is a harsh blog. I almost considered apologizing to Shannon, but sometimes, people stick there noses where they shouldn't. And sometimes, they must be punished.
Still, I value your opinions (civil ones, anyway), so speak out! Don't worry if you don't comment, I exist in person for a reason. Talk to me if you have a serious concern about what I do here.

On a final note, Shannon has complained what I post here is too much. I think she knows that I could do so much, much worse. So let's keep things civil, shall we?
