So I've managed to figure out how to work my very own super cool web journal, 21st century here I come!
It makes you, or maybe just me, wonder, why in the hell would someone start one of these in the first place? I think it just goes to show the prevailing attitude among my generation today; everyone feels like they are important on a larger scale. Everybody has something to say, and we all assume that many more people honestly care about what we have to say. Problem number one: not many people have SHIT to say. Call me hopeless, but honestly, we all give ourselves way too much credit. Anyone who has anything to say is already out there trying to say it, they aren't sitting alone at the computer typing their thoughts merely for lack of anything better to do. Problem number two: nobody cares. Honestly, these little diaries are nothing but cheap entertainment for our half-drunk and half-dead from working friends to look at because our attention spans have dwindled to such minsicule amounts that even out of the entire internet, the biggest collective free market-place of ideas that has ever existed, we've "seen it all".
That's fine by me though. If my boredom can help alleviate the boredom of a friend of mine, or even of a stranger, then by god I can't wait to feel the good karma pulsing through my veins. And to correct myself, while not many people have earth shattering ideas to get out in the open, each and every one of us has some ideas that at least our half-drunk friends care about, and when it matters to one person, then it matters, period, and that's all that matters, period. What my friends have to say is a hell of alot more interesting than much else the general public can say nowadays.
Some of you might find it akward that I write this as if it's to a larger audience, the same one I explained doesn't care about what I think. Well I say fuck it, I AM a part of my generation who feels that we matter, and I want piece of that pie too.
So if you are here out of boredom/drunkeness, I say Welcome, my friend. If you are a stranger here for any other reason and have bothered to stick around this long, then by god I've made a difference, I matter, and that is great.
