Please Delete Your MSN, just out of spite

Okay i will seriously slay the next person that sends me a fucking email that states

"If you do no forward this email to 18 other people something terrible will happen to you"

- and if you think my threat is empty, if you have my email on your address book it means i fucking know your name and most likely where you live...

anyway

today's email involved the shutting down of msn. which actually, i do wish would happen. i guarntee the quality of life on this planet would double without msn consuming our lives. or atleast it may eradicate the abbreviations of "tyme", "4eva", "lol", and the like.

Riiiiiight...

if that message was infact written by the directors of msn i'm pretty sure the company is doomed anyhow because they have the writing skill of a 4th grader...

which, i suppose, is the point of the whole messege.

it's supposed to be so fucking ridiculous that there should be no reason on this fucking planet for anyone with a brain to feel the need to forward it to their entire contact list!

fuck...

i don't know what is worse that i know and am [was now biatch] friends with the person who forwarded it to me, or that it had been forwarded to 64 people in total before it reached me...





people are clay, and it hurts me that i am not only of the same species, but also just as, if not more, ignorant than they.

Bad News Indie Rock Kids

Driving home 3 nights ago (i'm driving parents car seeing as i have no money to replate my car) i was listening to c95 and thinking about how the world is so different than i remember it yesterday, when suddenly wabaham! c95 was playing Broken Social Scene! i don't even know how to comprehend the many thoughts i had driving home listening to broken social scene on c95.

c95 for those that do not know is the mainstream garbage radio station that plays black eyed peas, madonna, nickelback, theory of a deadman and etc... on repeat. Rawlco (the company that owns c95) is responsible for killing the minds of all the men-i-knights in saskatoon. it is basically the anti-christ to all indie rock kids.

Broken Social Scene for those that do not know, is pretty much the definition of indie rock, some of the songs are purposely as melodacious as possible to sound as different and unique as possible. it is so indie rock that the people in the bands have other main bands that they spend their time usually focusing on while this band (BSS) is their artful kind of different band.

What this means is that indie rock is no longer independent rock, it is mainstream baby! it is popular.

hell my dad went to a trip to regina and all he had in the car were my cds, and he came back a lover of mars volta, the future heads, and is now downloading indie rock music like crazy. anything he can find.

this is the same guy who embarassed me to no end when he picked me up from kickboxing while all the guys are standing outside smoking or whatnot, and my dad pulls up in a convertable blaring backstreet boys " i want it that way"...

he likes the backstreet boys!

and thus the problem. indie rock was loved by indie rock kids because it was mainly a cry out to be different, perhaps even orginal, but all that is now in the past.


indie rock is mainstream.

John Gormley: Can you Please Suffer from a Fatal Stroke?

K thanks John.


I went to Billy Clinton the other night, a wonderful presentation on global interdependence. I was glad Clinton spent his speech on something as interesting as the up and coming change in globalization, something that clinton had defended throughout his administration, and now some critics are saying that this change that the clinton administration was pronoucing as "the end to world poverty" is now biting America in the ass. He spent a lot of time dealing with Aids, problems in Africa, and his partnership with Bush Sr. and their joint Tsunami relief.

it was good stuff, until the question answer period hosted by the notoriously inept John Gormrley.

Well he was wearing a pink shirt.

I knew right then and there when he walked onto the stage that this question answer period would be emabarassing, embarassing having john gormley represent the saskatchewan audience.

and sure enough it was.

Clinton concluded his speech with the suicidebombing that happened a few days earlier, and where he had walked through the church through the debris and blood and etcetera.

Gormley Struts up and begins to bombard clinton with absolutely moronic questions- well perhaps not moronic, but instead both petty and obvious proof of the dumbing down of media.

Gormley asked if Nafta is broken?

Clinton stated simply that no it is not broken if there has been only 1 major dispute , and that was with softwood lumber. 1 problem does not make it it broken.

and then Gormley hits clinton with a "fastball" asking Clinton what he thought about some obscure politician in Quebec who was openly hating Americans.

....


yeah aids in africa, world hunger, Tsunami's and then in the other hand simpleton problems in canada... i hate how everything must always directly affect someone for them to care or show any interest in the problem or place.

i was expecting at any moment Gormley would ask Clinton if Saskatoon should shut down the sheaf?



John Gormley, please shut down this site after you are done having your stroke, k thanks.

where have all the good ones gone?

Seeing as I am now single and have absolutely no female prospects in the least, I have tried to notice the supposedly hottest female population in all of the universities in North America as stated by playboy magazine. The problem, however, lies in the simple fact that a large portion of this alleged hot female population disappears every second semester.

The reason for this has been beyond my own personal grasp, and it required a drunken conversation with jay to fully understand what causes this difference in second semester?

Answer: All the hotties drop out or gain the uno-cinqo, effectively disappearing off the radar.

They vanish because of four reasons

1) university isn’t their thing
2) they need a timeout from school
3) fucking retarded as are most ridiculously hot 18 year-olds
4) the uno-cinqo and disappear from my notice.

In a way I have always known this, as I’ve always played the game with kids I recognize from high-school, i try and guess how long each of them will last, and this game generally shows signs of my predictions by second semester, because ½ or more drop off the face of the planet.

But I suppose to be fair I should list the 5th reason and 6th reason

5) 1st year classes are a complete waste of time
6) the people in first year classes are many times a complete waste of time.

I should prove statement 6)

In my 112 poly sci class there was a guy that I recognize from (highschool I think he graduated last year, he’s dressed up like Justin Timberlake whoever he is) where he tried starting up a conversation with a girl (obviously attempting something) by noticing she always sits on the far side of the desks.

Well she’s left-handed. Seats on the far sides have the board on the left side (oppose to the right) for a purpose beyond blowing this dipshit’s mind.

If I had to deal with that shit I’d fucking drop out too.

Actually I’m going to drop out just because I have to see people deal with people like that.

disclaimer: i'd never plan with getting with the pre second semester women anyway, mainly because i'm saving myself for Keira Knightely- and, or i personally infatuate myself with imperfect women... one of the two, heh.

i don't know why.
