The Interwebs Ramble
The internet does an awful thing to me sometimes. It makes me think, about the world. About people- every person with their own stupid, secret, amazing world inside them, about how if you listen here, there are humans communicating in ways not possible generations before.
I'm part of the internet generation. I cant remember times before the internet, it is as everyday as gossip to a teenage girl (which i am also). And its awesome- in the original sense of the world.
And the internet is angry. Scientology has come under fire from an organization known as Anonymous- but I'm sure you're aware of this. (Those who don't, if its not on Wikipedia is doesn't exist.)
The technology that is driving this- the interwebs. It's changing the world. The Anonymous masses met on the internet, they talked. People heard. They listened. Anonymous is declaring war on a very rich, big organization. The internet is creating a world of information, you can feel it at your fingertips when on the keyboard.
This blog, in the din isn't even the dream of a whisper. But sometimes the only thing to do is scream anyway. Maybe someone will listen. maybe it will affect them in some tiny way.
The supersaturated flow is made up of a lot of these- people shouting into the space, hoping someone will listen.
Maybe their words will change the world

EPIC FAIL.
I was so dissapointed that I promptly joined the site and posted the following under the same name as this post. I shall put a link to the website below so that those of you like me can appreciate my outrage at this abomination I had the misfortune of reading.
Hello!
I am a teenager from the baron deserts of Australia and therefore have no access to technology and you will probably just disregard my opinion as an outsider's anyway.
But I soldier on.
I have joined this website purely because it annoyed me and I needed to make it known that it did so.
Also, I like the attention, but enough about me...
To the creator of this abomination. I would like to point out that it is blasphemous and hideously grotesque to take such an awesome concept as the founding ideology of this website and turn it into the cesspool I have had the misfortune of stumbling across and subsequently bitched at.
I should probably point out that I use the word 'awesome' in a literal sense. Meaning NOT like a hotdog, to make a reference none of the sick souls that created this and perhaps a very small percentage of the poor souls sucked in by it would get.
OK, I was first dissapointed when the three television shows you have on the home page do not include Blackadder. All who think they appreciate sarcasm should immediately find means of obtaining and watching this BBC series. For the people of two didget IQs reading this (ie, all the Americans) BBC stands for British Broadcasting Company.
I then decided to investigate the website, to see if the could redeem themselves of this oversite.Upon veiwing the 'Sarcastic Quotes' section, I noticed that perhaps two of the quotes i viewed were sarcastic. Many more were indeed clever, but I feel that when visiting a link labelled 'Sarcastic Quotes' one would assume that at least 50% of the quotes would be sarcastic.
I then moved on to viewing your forums.
In one rather interesting and insightful forum, an Idian man tells a story of a bus trip in America. He is then accused of 'whining' by a 'greenbanana' character.
I haven't been able to find much other that whining on this site and, I assure you, JonnyBravoWarm is responsable for only a very small percentage of it.
In conclusion, I shall say that I probably had a more extensive vocabulary at the age of six than most of you do now and have been using sarcasm and irony CORRECTLY since I could talk.
I am sorely disappointed in this attempt at an intellectual whatever-it-is you're actually trying (and failing, I'm quite sure) to achieve here.
My last word is a quote from another BBC production (Torchwood, for the dickheads still reading this): "...I think even the stick up your arse has got a stick up it's arse."
Thank You All,
Much Love and Merriment,
Yours sincerely,
A Dissapointed Viewer.

PE Teachers
What is it with PE teachers? There all such fucking control freaks.
Mainly, the PE teacher at my school. Honestly, TWO THIRDS of the school were trying to get into the locker area, but he wouldn't let us because it 'wasn't time'. It was a matter of minutes early and most of the other teachers in the school had said we could go early, but NO, we can't go to the locker area because it 'isn't time'. *glare*
So, I have come up with a couple of theories about PE teachers:
THEORY 1: A large ammount of PE teachers became PE teachers because they were bullied in school and see it as an opportunity to get their own back.
THEORY 2: Many PE teachers are in that line of work because they were the school 'jocks' and then, after leaving school, realised that high-school sport was all that they were ever going to be any good at.
THEORY 3: Alternatively to Theory 2, many PE teachers are such because they were never any good at sport in high-school and now they can FINALLY beat high-school students. What these people don't realise is that being, on average, 10 years older than most year 12s, this isn't actually much of an achievement.
THEORY 4: This one is slightly more specific. The reason we weren't allowed into the locker area is that we could get to our school-books and learn, heaven forbid. And my dear sports teacher realised that if this happens, there will suddenly be a severe shortage of people in his 'profession', if you can even call it that.
(Alternatively, there is a good friend of mine's theory about the locker area, which I think deserves an honorable mention; "He's a fucking retard with an IQ I could count on one hand.")

A Suffusion of Yellow
I leave ye with a riddle: I'm hard yet soft. I'm coloured yet clear. I'm fruity yet sweet. I am jelly. What am I?
Muse upon it further, I shall return.

¿ŦŏM¿™ Pre-Death, Post-Life says:

....And so I did. For the most part, this is a conversation about what to call the blog, but it's only about half the entire conversation which was about some other stuff aswell, so bits probably don't make much sense (all who don't get the 'unconventional conventionists' reference FAIL!). But we did pick a name in the end, are we not awesome?
