The Post about other Posts

I had a GOT post all ready to go. It was long. It was full of facts about a fictional show. It was horrible. 

 

 

You’re asking why it’s horrible, aren’t you? You’re an inquisitive little mouse, so I’ll tell you. It was horrible because I was only going to post it showing how much I disliked this season as well as basically all the other ones too, and I still watch the damn thing. But, I don’t watch it that much anymore, as I can just read about what happens on my facebook feed.

 

That post was an exercise in my narcissistic tendencies to think people care what I think. It was also just a regurgitation of all the other articles out there discussing the very thing I thought I had a unique spin on. So, it failed on at least two fronts.

 

I thought about whether I was going to post it for a long long time. I started this 10 days ago y’all. I like a wide variety of things. I’m a huge nerd/geek/whatever you call someone who’s into Dr. Who basically. I have strong opinions about the media I consume and like to share these opinions. The only issue is that I don’t feel like adding to the flood of available content discussing all of those things as it is. I want my blog to be about everything else I like to talk about that others don’t seem to care about.

 

Yeah, I know. I won’t have many readers (or possibly any) with this strategy. But, the readers I will have are the ones who enjoy the random shit I like too.

 

So, you’re probably also wondering why I’m even writing a post about why I don’t think I want to write posts about what amounts to pop culture. Well, that’s a good fucking question. 

Weird

I’m weird. I have weird ways of saying things. I have a weird sense of humor. Read my tweets, and you’ll know its true. Weird is a blanket statement though. At first it was meant to be hurtful (which I never got hurt by it), then it became what it is today. It’s just the way things are, people are weird. Weird, in my experience, can mean a couple things,: the “stare at you for way too long” kind of weird and the “lets go get milkshakes and dip fries in it while talking in a British accent” weird.

Everyone used to be normal, doing the things normal people did and if you deviated from that then you were weird and no one wanted to play with you. It was a word no one used to describe interesting, creative people like they do today. So, to me, weird is just better to be than normal. Being normal is like being a Stepford wife or something. It’s like eating vanilla when there are flavors like Rocky Road or Chunky Monkey out there. And, the thing is that everyone has something that people will find weird, making them weird themselves.  So, love me for my weirdness and just accept it because its just fun times.

Just the thought of the day.
