wow are we stupid

has anybody ever noticed how stupid it is to get manicures and pedicures? i mean seriously... my nails look fine, its not like i am a disgusting person....and yet, i have never gotten either a manicure or pedicure in my life
saying this, i want to bring to your attention an article i recently read on a flight. this entire article was about how disgusting people are that they can expose their feet on a flight. but wait, not just this, their feet are UN-PEDICURED!!! O MY GOD WHATEVER SHALL WE DO??
here's a suggestion...dont analyze other people's feet if you dont want to see them...!
also, have you ever noticed how in all these movies you watch about people on welfare and stuff, they all (well, the women) have perfectly manicured and elaborately painted nails. and all i can say is
...
if you have enough money to go do that, then why are you asking people for more?
im sorry, but nobody's going to give you any money if that is what your going to spend it on
therefore, please dont go get manicures guys, it is a really stupid thing to do, unless you are living in america, where people seem to expect it of you....
i have an alternate, better solution....
keep your hands and feet clean...???!!!

the joys of instant messaging

aaah, instant messaging (will now be referred to as IM)
what a wonderful invention
the perfect excuse for slipping grades, and at the same time, so amazingly powerful
what is there to say about it other than the fact that i absolutely love it
of course, the best IMing that can possible be provided has been done with chat rooms
simply wonderful, you can actually talk to MORE THAN ONE PERSON AT A TIME
i know, it totally beats talking to people in person, doesnt it? (hint sarcasm hint)
in general, i think IMing is a total waste of time, yet i cant seem to stop doing it
i mean, my house is so boring anyways that talking to my friends is the perfect waste of time
and of course, some things are just so much easier to say when it appears magically on screen, instead of completely unmagically out of your mouth
and for some reason, there is that small pleasure of hitting the enter key whenever u finish saying something
whenever i look at that key now, i think about IM, and how one day, when i finish typing frantically, i will hit that key and suddenly...
BOOM

Is there a shortage of cloth in the world?

The other day, I was flipping through a magazine, and of course, in a magazine, there are ads. So I in my subconscious mind was staring blankly at the page, which happened to be a clothing ad. I use the term clothing loosely, what the model was wearing is more accurately described as…nothing. This kind of jerked me out of my subconscious reading, and pulled me to turn to the front page of the magazine, just to make sure I was reading the right one. I don’t usually go for the teen zines and things like that. I am one of those people who actually try and read pieces that have some sense other than “How to make this guy fall for you”, and such. So when I saw this ad, I automatically thought, wait, is this some “teen zine”? But no, it actually turned out to be TIME magazine. And I thought, what is an ad like this doing in a magazine I thought just may be sensible? Then it really sank in, how corrupt our world is, that in a magazine that is supposed to be informing us about important news around the world, there is an advertisement for something I would doubt if any of us need. A question to all, we brought clothing into our world to keep us warm and to keep us decent, but aren’t we just going backwards? The skimpy things I see on mannequins in stores now are not classified as clothing. They are classified as small pieces of cloth that have been draped onto mannequins in different ways and colors. Is there a shortage of cloth in the world? I certainly haven’t heard about it. And another thing while I am on this track. Do these models have serious eating disorders? The anorexic people I see in ads are definitely not normal. If you’re telling me that is normal, then 99.9% of the population of the world is…fat. There is no amount of money you could pay me to become like that. I’d like to keep food in my day, thank you very much. Here I quote Bill Watterson, author of Calvin and Hobbes, reading of which is one of my favorite pastimes.
“Mom, can I have plastic surgery?”
“Honey, those supermodels need the fat sucked out of their brains, not their butts.”
Mr. Watterson, we can all learn a lot from you, Calvin and Hobbes is not just a comic, it is a message to us all. We just have to look for it.

thinking thoughtfully

anyway...i was thinking today, for once, and i was like, god life is boring
so, i wrote a poem that i shall perhaps turn into a song
would u like to hear it? yes i thought so...
here u go:

A Secret for the Wise

Because it’s me, and nobody else
Wait for me, beyond places you can reach
Where the wind blows so hard neither you or I can stand still
Where the river washes around our feet, distraught by the sudden disturbance
And I will tell you a secret, don’t tell anyone else, and be careful, the river is watching
A change in the winds knocks us off our feet
And our shadows fly up through the sky
A black stormy gray falls over the earth
I open the door, to walk out of the picture, the door closes before you can follow


yes, beautiful, isnt it?
well, as my signature, i shall say

i can't quite grasp the way my mind works
