I started this "not-a-blog" for two main reasons: To practice and hopefully improve my writing ability, and to act as a pressure release valve. I hate shit. I hate tons of shit. That's no secret, just look through the archives here - I'm a serious virulent fucking ass when I choose to be. What do you think happens when that shit doesn't have an outlet? Certainly nothing good.
But, contrary to what the hippie, feminazi, PC-brigade would have everyone believe - that's normal. Unless you're a spineless doormat, of course, but I'd rather be an ass than have such a disgraceful lack of self-respect. YMMV. That's a blatant lie, of course: Spineless doormats are no exception at all - they're a classic example of an internally destructive consequence.
Whether productive or destructive, internal or external, pressure gets out one way or another. Always. Unless you use a really good sealant...No, always. Pretending it doesn't exist, willing it away...Not gonna work, you're flirting with disaster.
So I write venomous shit. Write. I write shit that no one really even has to read anyway. Shit that nobody has any legitimate reason to even give a crap about. And even if nobody reads it, which is likely anyway, merely writing it and putting it out there makes dealing with that crap manageable.
But as a notably wise man once observed: "I look and see it's not only me..."
The fact of the matter is, our society breeds stress. That's a terrible thing, and it needs to change, but that's modern society's dirty little truth.
So everyone's stressed halfway to the breaking point, if not more, (especially high school students - fuck, I wouldn't go through that hell again for anything in the world) and all the resulting excrement gets sucked up into the Internet by the metric fuckton.
A bleak, unfortunate result, right? I don't think so. Pressure gets out one way or another, right? How did we relax and get by without the internet? Uhhh...alchohol, some other fun substances, domestic beatings (family fun for all ages!), school violence (yes, it has been decreasing - try turning off CNN, "Action" News, and Fox News sometime, your brain might heal) and a fine selection of various other misdemeanors and felonies. Oh, yea, and drum circles...Hmm...Yea, umm, so tell me more about that "felony" thing...
But now we've got a bunch of asinine keyboard-diarrhea filling up the internet. Really not so bad, all things considered. Of course, that's still no reason to feed the trolls...
So basically, the internet is one big collective mega-fart. Ahh. Much better.
