notes on the everyday: eharmony and the fall of western civilization

Published by admin under Uncategorized

The internet has destroyed communication while at the same revolutionizing the way people communicate. Now we can speak in bad grammar to people we don’t know in countries we don’t care about, or instead of having meaningful conversations with just one person face to face we can have serveral surface level conversations with a whole huge group of people and never have to see them at all…isn’t technology great?
…match.com…eharmony.com…that eharmony.com place freaks me out. I’m convinced they are going to find out that the compatablity tests are hooking people up with distant cousins. Ever notice how much alike those people look? It’s scary…and those match.com ads that are just the girls staring at you through the computer..Is that supposed to be reassuring?…Who needs to go to the bar anymore, when i can try and marry a cam whore who might be my cousin? (thanks to grant for helping me with this rant).

notes on the everyday: how does jim belushi have a job?

Published by admin under notes on the everyday

Sometimes I wonder what everyone else is thinking about. What is the average ammount of thought that people put into their everyday lives? If you’re anything like me, I think all the time, about really random things too. I wonder if stupid people know that their stupid. Why do people who can’t sing always think they can, and people who can sing always think they can’t? How does stupid shit get on TV? You would think someone somewhere would have put their hand up and addressed the pink elephant in the room. “Yes, Bob, you had a question,” “Just what kind of brain damage does everyone here have? I don’t think putting Jim Belushi in another sitcom where he plays a douchebag is going to help our ratings”. Sadly honesty has become a lost art here in America.
