Remind me why I spend time on the internet again?

Oh right..to basically be reminded that I'm an antisocial fuckhead.

Thanks, Geritol.

But a cute girl from another country asked me to friend her, so I guess I have that going for me.

I sometimes want to ask permission to just show up and nurse a beer against the wall somewhere.

Well, next weekend I'm...

I have a similar problem, I feel everything I want to do is a bad idea. I have combated it by cultivating a small group of friends who I can rely on to agree with me on certain bad ideas. When I want to do something I think/know is a bad idea I call up the friend resposible for helping my justify that particular brand of stupid and it's off to the races. biggrin

I'm basically avoiding all the news about the Virginia Tech shootings right now. And by news I mean the Grief Train that the broadcast news shows always roll into town when something like this happens.

People saying "wow, this is just shocking" really just...it doesn't do anything. I'm not freaked out or anything. It didn't happen to me. But the media is almost ghoulish about...

And posting pictures with mellow piano music. Then there's the whole circus of blame. It's either a minority, immigration, video games, heavy metal, gangsta rap, violent movies, there always needs to be an abstract entity responsible for this kind of thing.

Now, Spider Man. I agree to the point where I couldn't agree more.

I love the Spidey movies, but you are so right. Kirsten is the weakest part of the whole thing... Speaking of which, this reminds me I should buy IMAX tix for Spiderman 3, they are already on sale. biggrin

I heard a radio news report a week ago about how most bloggers are passionate about blogging. I don't know if I'd go all that far, but I think there's some truth to the idea that you must be passionate about something to do it frequently.

I haven't been all that passionate about blogging lately. I'm becoming more and more distanced from the internet. I'm...

Gail Simone is the sweetness.

I've never thought much about Dr. Strange at all by and by. I think, like a lot of "magical" characters, he's not handled well by comic book writers. Like, I don't know what his *rules* are - he doesn't fit in with super heroes, who are more like science fiction pulp heroes.

Hey there - re: the Gillis piece. One thing I did like: I like when people talk *seriously* about the meta/symbolic content of comics. So I'm glad you posted that. I just think Gillis made some funky moves. smile

I'm in dire financial straits right now, probably the worst in over a year.

But I'm going to let this teach me a lesson. I could've planned for this and been smart, but I wasn't, and I didn't...and now I'm mad about it, but I need to learn.

Maybe a week of packing lunches and being broke until payday on Friday will teach me a...
