I Live on the Internet

So I had just written a lengthy post outlining all of the websites that have kept me distracted from doing both my schoolwork and updating my blog. However, it got lost because my internet decided to be uncooperative so I will provide a summarized list of all those sites

• Ficly
• Greenzac (youtube vlog)
• Other Youtube vlogs (Kassem G, Shay Carl)
• xkcd
• Legorobotcomics
• Other Webcomics
• Thisisphotobomb
• Failblog
• failbooking
• My[Confined]Space
• BadAstronomy
• Stupid semi-frequently updated sites (lolcatz, peopleofwalmart, Awkwardfamilyphotos etc.)
• Friends Blogs
• Fark

Of course this is not an exhaustive list and I wish I hadn’t been so inter-clumsy as to lose my previous entry. Oh well.

And Olivia is the mutha fuckin shit.

Ficly

I wanna write the stories too!

So I did. It’s kinda fun! Especially when someone adds onto one of yours!

Allow to explain. Ficly.com is a site where people write short stories that are no more than 1000  characters (I think) and then you can write prequels or sequels to those stories!

95% percent of all the stories there are either emo or super-lame fantasy but some are pretty good.

Anyways, long story short, I have found yet another way to stop myself from doing schoolwork.

I are Stupid

Yes, I may be stupid.

I have, on average, no to limited funds at my disposal. Yet it nevers fails that this money tends to go towards very unimportant things. I know I’m not alone in this regard but those other irresponsible folk don’t have to drive a fair bit to get home. What usually happens to me is a spend my money and then realize that I don’t have any money left tot fuel my car and to get home.

I am certainly stupid.

As irresponsible this is, I have good friends out there who pay no heed to my idiotics and are more than willing to allow me to a) not only crash at there house at midnight because I con’t make it home but b) they also lend me money to put a few dollars into my gas tank. This means a lot to me to know there are good folk out there willing to go out on a limb for their friends. I like to think that I wouldn’t hesitate in the least to do the same.

So thanks goes out to all those swell friends of mine who super bad-ass. You make my retardedness a little more bearable.

The Photobomb

A new art has been born. I am making it my goal to photobomb every picture possible from here on out. What is a “photobomb” you ask?  Well I am more than happy to inform! A photobomb is when someone impolitely intrudes upon a photograph that is being taken and generally does as such in a crude manner.

So every photo I see being taken in the future, I will attempt to vandalize with my presence. This will be most entertaining. Well… entertaining for me. The photographers would not enjoy I think. Sure it may be cutesy the first 13 times but after that it may get tedious. I’ll be having a ball though.

An Important Issue

Owls vs. Beavers. Who would win?

A lot of the time you get something in your head where you think “hmmm… I wonder who would win in a fight… Kermit the frog or enzo?”. Usually these questions are silly because the answers are so obvious (Enzo obviously). Once in a while I have discovered that there really is a fight worthy of discussion and debate. Pirates vs. Ninjas, Buzz Lightyear vs. Captain America and so on.

I have decided that beavers vs. owls is a fight worthy of such discussions.

OWL STRENGTHS

• Flight
• Wisdom
• Large Talons
• Strategic Cunning
• Silent
• Exceptional Eyesight
• Rotatable Head
• Some have horns
• Terrifying Screech

BEAVER STRENGTHS

• Big Badass Teeth
• Biggest enemy of the Ents
• Build Dams
• Led by Simon Cowell
• Super Strength
• Giant Rodent
• Powerful Tail
• Screws over other forest creatures
• Persistant Schemer
• Hard worker

Its impossible to tell! I think that I would have to throw the two into a ring and see. Would PETA be cool with that?

(I’ll be in the Owls corner, Beavers are dicks.)

Self-decrepitation

hello loyal readers (all zero of you), i have come upon what is kind of an epiphany. I say kind of because I read it in a book a long time ago but recently I gave it some serious thought and realized the truth of it. This is probably a useless piece of imformation but I would say that it explains a lot about our nature. Now I’m certainley no pshychiatrist or philosopher or biological anthropologist but I would say that I can sometimes get a pretty good grasp on my surroundings and can come up with interesting insights.

Human beings, as far as nature is concerned, are self-decrepitating. Now you’ll probably think “well duh, people are stupid.” and I would agree with that but I think that it goes deeper than that. I think it’s an inherit part of our nature. It’s ingrained into our genetics. Think about it, practically everyone drinks, smokes, blazes, does x-treme sports, and so on. It’s not a matter of being stupid… because if it was I’m sure we could show a chimp how to smoke a cigarette and that the chimp would become a chain smoker. Obviously not because the chimp knows that its no good! Human beings bodies are attuned to outside chemical influence and we enjoy it. Everyone smokes, they just don’t know it yet.

Of course there are those who do none of those things but they are, oddly enough, freaks of nature. Going against what is natural. In no way am i condoning any of this behavior, but it is what makes us us.

I honestly wonder what the evolutionary advantage is to this… maybe a way to trim the fat? I have no clue… but that might make sense. Those who can’t survive the toil they put their body through don’t get to spread their genes. It’s just you’d think that genes that don’t fall to such behavior would have sprung up by now. Assuming that is the case then we’ve gotten past having to survive against it and everyone survives and we just have an ill society.

Perhaps this might explain our environmental irresponsibility or our cruelty… but probably not because we see that in other species…

Keep in mind this is one hundred percent researchless…

Spread the Word

Yes Sweet Lemonade

The XX

I finally managed to make full use of my fantastic HMV gift card and I bought Some CDs. I bought CDs such as Them Crooked Vultures, The Creepshow and some others. However, one CD I purchased stood out as absolutely fantastic.

The XX

Thats the Album cover.

I tend to buy a lot of Cds based solely on their album cover. I thought that this one was quite nifty, so I bought it. Good choice on my part I guess. I rather enjoy this CD. So much so that I’ve already listened to it a sickly number of times. This album is so good I would go out on a limb and say that it is the easily the best debut album of the year. Even one of the best albums of the year period! Usually I find that a bands first few albums are shaky as the band realizes its potential. The XX however, unlike most, have skipped this part and went straight to awesome, sexy perfection. You don’t see that too often (though it still does happen of course. Black Kids and Vampire Weekend being good examples).

I Would add however, that this band, as excellent as I deem it to be, will have difficulty to ever achieve any real popularity. Which is a pity. Honestly I don’t care about that but it seems worthy of mention. The reason for this being that they don’t have that one iconic song. The whole album is divine in mine eyes of course, but nothing stands out on its own.

Regardless, It’s a pretty friggin’ sweet album.

LOL

lol.

Acronym for “Laugh out loud”

rarely used when one actually does laugh out loud.

Excellent as conversation fodder however.

All the Hipsters Like the Dance Music

My parents got me clothes and shoes for christmas. Im pretty sure that they want me to be a hipster seeing as I got plaid flanel and converse shoes. In the meantime, some Christian Hansen and the Autistics!

I cannot for the life of me remember whether I already shared this delightful music video and i’m far to lazy to click buttons. Nothing wrong with some extra goodness though.
