blustockingI think that's some sort of magenta or something.
Admit it.
We love a failure.
You don't want to read about how good things are going, how anyone is growing as a person, about how wonderful this bucketful of life is right now. Hell, I don't even want to write it. Sure, you may want things to go well for the people you care about, even want to read the occasional happy-smappy-I'm-so-lucky-and-stable post. But too much of that shite and your mind starts to wander.
Maybe I'm just an asshole though.
Or maybe you're just a fucking liar.
;)
Because if someone's doing so well, if they're learning confidence, and expanding their horizons as a wonderful waste of human flesh, you start to wonder..."What the fuck is wrong with me? Why do THEY have it so great? What the fuck do THEY think they know. She'll fall soon, oh yes." And then, when it happens, you maybe feel a little bad, but are secretly vindicated. It's okay, it's how we work. Because I'll be the first to admit that I rather enjoy a good, trite angry post, a solid little rant about something rather small or medium...as long as it's well-written, yeah? Moderation is the key to the spice of life. Which is, incidentally, good sex.
So shove this down your pants...
Fuck online journals for making stupid people think they're pretty fucking deep. And fuck them for stroking everyone's "I'm a writer" organs. Thousands of new dickheads, flapping in the breeze of longevity and ego. Come again? No thanks.
Seriously. Think about it. There may even be a few on your friends list now, the poor saps you don't have the heart to de-friend. Not mine though, 'cause I'm perfect. But the people I know on this here two-way connection to Hermitville are generally intelligent, thoughtful people. Scary stuff when you wander outside your little online cliques and contained worlds, no? Because what you have here, is a smaaaaaall sample of ye olde population (Does LJ even HAVE a "random" button any more? Or was it too upsetting.) But more and more, the stupids have a voice, they have meeeaning, they have a method of spreading their disease and infecting the populace. WTFOMGOLOLOLOL!!1
We don't have to worry about "Rage", we have to worry about "Dumb, with a bloated sense of importance and self-image". I know. I done seen 'em.
Do you realize, that these are the people that breed the most? Do you see where this is going? We're either going to have to:
a. start breeding more ourselves, just to ensure we're not all walking around humping cactuses and beating each other with rocks.
b. find a new planet and don't tell them.
c. or start killing.
Now I know which one you all immediately jump to. But if we kill them all, who will clean up? Who will collect your garbage and kill your beef? AHAHAHAHA. I just called all of those people stupid. Now you know I don't think that's fucking true, but c'mon. There IS a system working here. So is that it, are the Smart Kids destined to forever be the minority? Or is it getting worse. (I love putting things in black and white, ahehehe) And do you really want to start popping out babies just to ensure more Smart Kids anyway. What if your illegal immigrant nanny drops them on their head? What if you're such an arrogant fuckwad that you mess them up anyway, so we just end up breeding a series of mentally capable, but emotionally unstable assholes, serial killers, and CEOs. So I guess we have to find a new planet and keep it under wraps. But that's not going to happen, because too many of us smarties are afflicted with "teh lazy". N'est pas?
The point of this tripe?
Don't be an idiot.
And never forget, you're a fucking idiot.
It's a delicate balance really.
Admit it.

There was a label on my milk today that said "Warning: Product contains allergen - Milk." Sosince we've ruled out the idea that people should need to think before doing something, we've made the iea of survival of the fittest extinct.

Date: 2003-07-30 09:20 pm (UTC)so I shall add to your rant with my "fuck online journals for.....making people think they're so interesting and desirable as to warrant the legions of stalkers they claim to have."
what the hell people? some of the stalk-enamored obviously love the attention, or they wouldn't draw attention to the fact that they have stalkers so much. way to discourage them, folks. plus it's so much fun to make people pity you, and perpetuate the super duper drama.
why is the internet full of people whose lives seem to resemble smiths songs? morrissey is dead, dudes, leave him at the flashback lunch where he belongs.
I'm sick of the whole " I can't tell you anything about myself other than the fact that I like it in the ass" bullshit. I'm not going to give anyone my SSN, but fuck, wanna know my name? that's
cool, I'm not scared of you.
why are so many scared of little old me then? I don't have nearly enough organization or an attention span or even the interest in anyone but myself to make stalking a reasonable idea. that shit takes time and energy I just don't have.
oh my god, someone gag me or I'll never stop.
nooooo, keep going
Date: 2003-07-30 09:31 pm (UTC)Seriously, it's because these people can't get that kind of attention in their daily lives. Scared of the real-deal, I suppose, so they concoct something online, something they can control. Why they would NEED that attention, well...that's another story.
In the end, people just need to lighten the fuck up. And not to quote Dr. Phil, but I did hear him use this little "downhome philosophy" once...."You wouldn't worry about what people thought of you, if you knew how seldom they did." Maybe that doeesn't EXACTLY fit, but I like it...dammit.

Date: 2003-07-30 09:28 pm (UTC)it's a cycle that will no doubt end in the ultimate extinction of intellect.. and i'll be dead before then so you won't see me trying to change it.
the general population really is getting dimmer with each passing day. don't convince yourself otherwise. all this arty scene kid pseudo fucking intellect is worth shit. these kids won't change the world, they'll just dress it up pretty and retro until a new scene comes along. it's all so temporary..
screw you, stocking. you've made me anger-ful.
now if you'll excuse me, i have some class A wasting away to do..
Satan, I will take your case
Date: 2003-07-30 09:39 pm (UTC)And really, is this the extinction of intellect, or just a cycle? Maybe we need a little regression to move forward? A little repression to become productive? Maybe it's The Dark Ages, Part Deux: The Coming of The Wired World. But that sounds like a D&D booster pack, so screw that.
