Facebook

I've never been too terribly fond of Myspace. Its annoying and browser-crashy, but if you've used it or have friends who have it, you already know that. I would go into greater detail but that would just be beating a dead horse. So anyway, because of Myspace's annoyingness, I flocked to facebook. I always liked how every facebook I saw didn't have so much shit on it. In fact, most of them just had contact info, info about themselves, a profile picture, and a spot for comments. Clean and simple, just how I like it. It was just a nice quiet place to socialize with all the people who I knew and loved, and everything was relatively private.

Then something absolutely horrible happened, and that is that facebook allowed people to create these "applications" to put in people's profiles. I guess this wouldn't bother me so fucking much if there weren't so many of them and they each at least did something useful. At least the myspace music thing plays music! ( facebook has a lastfm thingy, but I think you have to be signed up for lastfm to listen to it. bullshit.) Most of these applications are stupid shit which fills up your page and annoys all your friends, for example, free gifts. This isn't the regular gifts which you can waste 1 dollar each on that facebook provides, oh no. It's a completely different application which has a separate box in your profile. So if you want it in your profile, you have to have the gifts and the LOL FREE gifts, and to my knowledge, there's no way to delete the old gifts! The free gifts are also annoying because you can get spammed with all these crappy "gifts" which are really just pictures of smiley faces or pairs of panties or other things like that. Then you've got other ones like SUPERPOKE. No, this isn't a modification you can just slap onto your regular poke thing, this is a SUPERPOKE. In a superpoke, you can hug, kiss, slap, pwn, or do other stupid shit like that to everyone else who has bothered to add this to their profile. So if you have it, guess what? You have the regular poke and the SUPER POKE. God, do we really need more than just one poke application? What the hell was wrong with the poke thing that came pre-packaged with facebook? Why can't they just make it a modification of the regular poke? I don't know.

I guess I can tolerate things like that, but what really fucking annoys me is that every time someone gets it and invite you to get it as well. That requests module on your home page when you first log in, which used to just tell you friend and group requests, is now full of stupid shit like invitations to a SUPERPOKE or QUOTES OF THE DAY INVITATIONS or ZOMBIE GAME INVITATIONS. Can they at least put all that shit in a separate box so i could at least ignore it? No. You have to sift through all this bullshit to get to your friend requests, group requests, and other important things. If you have a lot of friends on facebook, then your requests page is probably loaded with all kinds of crap like this. I don't know about you, but quite frankly, I do believe that facebook, once the nice quiet place to socialize, has not only become annoying, but MORE annoying than Myspace. That's a bold statement, I know, but quite frankly, I can't hardly even look at facebook anymore. At least myspace doesn't have SUPERPOKES or FREE GIFTS or ZOMBIE CHUMP BITING (lol) or TYPICAL STUPID ANNOYING FACEBOOK APPLICATION WHICH YOU HAVE TO HAVE RIGHT NOW.

Oh well. I guess I'll just have to go back to xanga. Cya :)

DYARGLERBLARGH

I had fun on the trip and lots of lulz with my fonkle (ILU ZEEKEY) and my family members blah blah that was like 400 years ago anyway so nobody cares.

Anyway, lately I've gotten tarped by one of the internets's biggest tarps which is tarping more and more of the internets every day. This tarp just so happens to be called Second Life. Call me a faggot, but Jesus Christ that "game" is like really fun. I like being able to build shit and actually get it to work. However, the most fun I have in the game is, of course, spamming the hell out of it. For example, one time I had this C4 weapon, which when detonated, would orbit (blow people 400 feet in the air or just out of the sim [piece of land] which usually results in B&s and lols) everyone within about 20 feet away from it. With this weapon, I marched into various virtual sex clubs where people where up to all sorts of 3-D polygonal, textured, animated and unprotected sexual hijinks, planted it in places where people were either doing it, dancing, or just standing around, and /5 boom'd them all the way into the next sim. One guy threatened to kill my avatar afterwards. How so very very intimidating. Also the account I used got banned because APPARENTLY a name such as Beardick Jacobus is considered innapropriate in the world of Second Life! What a bitch.

Anyway, besides falling for the tarp, I also got an irl job at an store. I don't really feel like going into detail about that right now but I go into training sometime this week. ogods. My managers seem like cool guys though, and that's good. My fellow new hires seem pretty nice too, though I can only really socialize with about 3 of them so far because I met other new hires yesterday and i couldn't talk to them at all. I mean I had nothing against them but the whole time I was with them, there was an awkward silence, and it was so annoying. I also got to do lots of training assessments. I was at the store for five hours doing the assessments. I still didn't get them all done :)
My manager seems okay with it though as long as i complete everything within a couple of days.

Hopefully next monday, we can get my college application sent in. We haven't been able to do it the past couple of times because the admissions place was closed both times. What a bitch :(
