I finally realized that the whole idea of this BLOG concept is that's ALL about WHO YOU ARE!! Wow!! I never realized that this was all about ME!! It's not my window on the World, it's the world's window on ME!! Go figure. I wonder what revolving door I was caught in when they had THAT meeting. Anyway, onward....all about ME!!

It seems that there is no end to the pemutions of ME out there. Everyone wants ME to get a read on ME!! That whole goofy Emode website, for example. Somehow, I got hood-winked into trying that, and now I get these emails cajoling me to discover MORE about ME. One of them is headed Whats your party style?, and encourages me to do the following: "What's Your Party Style?

Let's get this party started! What's your style when you're letting the good times roll? Take the new What's Your Party Style? test and find out now!"

So I gave it a shot. But.....it seems that sometimes the emode site takes forever to process a result. So.....I got fed up with that stupid nonsense. I mean, it's ME we're talking about!! Why should I have to wait to find out more about ME than I, or anyone, needs to know?!!

So....it was to off check out some Princess Mononoke websites. I wanted to get some obscure confirmation about the Kodomas, and in the process I discovered a Princess Mononoke clique. The cool thing about it was that this personal called it a fanlisting, and not a clique. It's very cool and nicely designed and I'm going to join it even though I dont have a Princess Mononoke website. Anyway, as I always do, I check out some of the sites listed on the clique, and wouldn't you know, the first one I cliqued on was a blog by this girl in Germany and after talking about a very good and noble cause involving Ghana, I noticed that she had discovered a LOT of information about herself that we all could live without, but is endlessly fascinating all the same. And since my Emode adventure didn't work out, I thought I'd try one of HER adventures in the never ending quest to find out ALL about ME!

Here is my result:

...rhubarbrhubarbrhubarb- *aargh*

You're an extra!

You're the face in the crowd, the anonymous businessman, the giggling schoolgirl, the guy who gets trodden on by Godzilla. You don't have a name or a character or a backstory, and you'll probably be dead by the third scene. Don't under any circumstances tell the bloke next to you about the happy life you've got planned for after the war, if you want to see it. At all costs avoid lone swordsmen. Which generic anime character are you?

So....there you have it. More essential information about ME! Fascinating!!

And NOW, it's time for me to update my Online Sadness Diary.

Oh....that's right. I just did that.

This is actually absolutely unbelievable and quite remarkable.

The simple fact that this post even exists. It's as if I'm arrayed in a Piffle Princess hooded sweatshirt.

But, along with finding the ultimate paltry and insipic teenage boy blog, this evening, the thought that most occurs to me is the curious manner in which blogs are read.

The normal deal if you read something is that what is written first gets read first, and you can follow the continuity of the thing in a readable, top to bottom, order. A normal deal should run about thus:

Dear Blog....God here. Well...I gone and done it. I fucked an Angel....and......being GOD and all, I wasn't wearing any protection because, I'm GOD for Christsake.

Well.....I really got myself in trouble THIS time!! Damn!! ((Sure wish that I had a god to damn like y'all do----reminder to self: DO something about that next time...)) It wasn't some bastard son I created this time..... I mean GODDAMN!! I created a Whole Fucking WORLD!!! People! Animals!! All that crazy shit!! DAMN!!

Shit!! Is this for REAL???

Sorry I haven't posted in awhile. Been pretty fuckin' busy with all this tedious nonsense.

Note to self: If I ever get time....NEVER fuck an Angel ever again!!

Okay.... that's how blogs and normal thinking SHOULD be read. But....this Blog deal is all backwards. Upsidedown. Gotta read up instead of in the normal way. Maybe I should just go grab another beer and write all this stuff in unrhymed iambic pentameter. Or maybe I should grab a beer and shut up and hope against all hope that someday some teenage girl will read this and think, "It's well written, but CREEPY!"

I am imagining what it would be like if I wrote my entire blog, and everything else for that matter, in paltry and insipic teenage girl poetry. Not that all teenage girl poetry is paltry and insipic....some of it is very good....trust me, I know....

*slinks away quietly*

Also, all teenage girl poetry, paltry & inspic, or otherwise, is vastly superior to ALL teenage boy poetry. And nothing, nothing on the face of this earth, is worse than paltry and insipic teenage boy poetry. I have written enough of it to know. Brrrrrrrr! The horror!!

And lord I wish I still had those first 143 poems right NOW!! I would put them up on my website The Literary Life as quickly as I could code the html. What horrific expositions of horrific times those poems were. I know that the first 143 are gone forever, but there are others that remain. ALSO....the exists a fair number of paltry and insipic COLLEGE BOY poetry..... which come to think of it, paltry and inspic College Boy poetry is EVEN WORSE than paltry and insipic teenage boy poetry. Anyway....if I had the worst of the worst, I would have it up there with the good stuffas quickly as I could code the html, to quote a famous blog I read recently.

Anyway, what made me think of this was some blogs that looked like they were written in poetry. For example:

onthebreathofanangel
if loving you is wrong


On first glance, it looks like these girls are posting in poetic form. Especially, the first one. I suppose it's really just short little bursts of perception that are centered rather than left justified. But than again, it's better to go with makes life more magical. So....it's poetry, not the least bit paltry nor inspic.....especially when you left click on it and little stars shoot up like sparks.
