I decided that there needs to be a band that performs Commodore 64 music competently with actual Living Instruments, and that if I ever learn to play the violin, I need to be in one.
Then I learned that this has apparently already been done. I was sad.
Then I looked up some videos of guys (including some crappy band and also something called the "C64 Orchestra") playing "Monty on the Run" and realized that it still hasn't been done incredibly well yet. I was happy again. |

Well, I got a job moving boxes around at a warehouse, and just got done my first week.
It kind of sucks, but it beats working at Dunkin' Donuts (except for the fact that Dunkin' Donuts wouldn't completely fuck up my physical being and make my previously-injured knee want to explode) and the person I generally work with just happens to be a complete Internet junkie and /b/tard. Yeah, I work with Anonymous.
In other news, people are kind of annoying. It seems that whenever a group of people object to some kind of well-established malignant behavior in society, they - or rather, seemingly most of them - seem to become completely polarized, ending up blindly zealous to the point of being nearly as irrational as whatever it is they're reacting against.
For instance, I'd like to see a vegan who objects to animal abuse but doesn't act like (s)he is God for doing so. For instance, I just saw this on some Vegan-friendly website:
Don't give up completely on your family and friends -- they may eventually come around, especially if you are a living example of compassion in action. "Be" vegan without preaching about it. Nothing will impress them more.
What? This gives the impression that anyone who eats meat or wears leather is some sort of "unsalvaged soul". I seriously expect this kind of language from Christian fundamentalists more than I expect it from vegans.
People need to learn that there is a lot of suffering in the world that you can't do a damned thing about, and that we all (especially in America) probably contribute a small amount to all or most of it, unless you basically live off the land and never buy anything from anyone ever (and never pay taxes).
Another good example would probably be modern feminism - it's bad when I consider myself more of a legitimate feminist than most people who actually claim to be.
Tip: When you make some sort of argument based on a hypothetical situation, replace gender-based words like "he" or "her" to things like "person" or "person A" and "person B". If your argument doesn't make sense any more, odds are it's based on some sort of emotional bias.
Other tip: Men aren't responsible for absolutely every evil thing ever, and if something bad happens that involves a man and a woman and sex is involved, the man is not necessarily at complete fault!
I doubt much of that made sense. Oh well. |

Does anyone have any idea if this kind of crap is ever legitimate? I enjoy making money, but I'm extremely skeptical of anything even remotely this suspicious, especially since you need to actually pay cash moneys to sign up.
It seems HIGHLY suspect, but I figure it might as well be looked into. |

This will probably be a short entry; I'm at school and I can't really organize my thoughts very well when I can't do this at my own leisure. I might type up something better later.
Let's see.
I've been a lot more stressed out than I should be.
Reasons:
- My commute to school and back is about four hours total (sometimes a little more or less) each day I need to go.
- My school/life situation is kind of fucky. I'm still not sure what I want to do because my mind is great at knowing a little about everything, but I hate specializing. Also, if I get stuck at any kind of "typical job" when I'm 40... well, I'm just not going to let that happen. I barely feel like I SHOULD bother with the "life" thing anymore (I sort of feel like I've failed at it and sometimes I feel like giving it up entirely), so I'm not going to settle for mediocrity if I do. Also, I get very little positive support from anyone (except mostly just my girlfriend) and I don't exactly feel like a respectable (or respected) person.
- My home situation is kind of fucky. For all my father is "worried" about me (which I do believe he is), he won't do a DAMN thing to make my life SLIGHTLY less stressful. Hell, he won't even stop smoking in the living room with his girlfriend when the windows are shut (I love it when I cough and the house smells like cigarette smoke and I can see the air sometimes). He has the attitude that since it's his house, he can do whatever he wants. He fails to understand that it doesn't mean he SHOULD.
I get very little positive support from anyone (except mostly just my girlfriend) and I don't exactly feel like a respectable person.
Okay, the spacebar on this keyboard barely works, so I'm going to stop now. Grah. |

What is wrong with this statement from the CCRI website? Anybody know? :((((((
Also: Nicole: I sent you something in the mail and I hope it did not get lost or anything in the mailjaws.
In other news:
I don't think I'm interpreting these Plus-Tech Squeeze Box lyrics correctly.
In "Suzzzzzy" I swear the woman is saying "You can still get crabs!"
In "CM#&' ($_?>!" (yes, that's apparently the title) I hear "plastic whiskey to the happy circle quiet has burned a wife" for some reason.
This can't be right. If it is right, that makes me very happy.
Oh, and if you think those names are weird, the album is called "CARTOOOM!" |

okay so
I thought I was going to have a job opportunity at CCRI but apparently there are no positions available ^_
also I'm generally pissed off at a variety of things and people for a variety of reasons and want to throttle God right now
I think I spent a day or two without talking to anyone ^_ well except my mom probably called and I probably got a grinder or something at the market
also this is the second Friday in a row I've been at CCRI for absolutely no reason and without knowing how I am going to get home
in better news: I might try to get a job at a small local mill which is a negligible walking distance from my house and also is owned by good friends of the family and shit
in worse news: I basically had a nervous breakdown yesterday and came very close to doing things I definitely shouldn't ^__^
I am not really sure why I'm telling anyone any of these things since it's not like any of you actually exist or will exist in the near future (for all intents and purposes) and most of the people I do consider good friends either haven't bothered to get ahold of me because they're bastards and I will kill them or can't because they can't ^______^
oh unless you tried to call me when I was on the phone with Krissy (this happens a lot because she Actually Bothers and shit) because my dad is too stupid to pay like the $2.22 a month for call waiting for our phone line; in this case it would beep at you because it's busy and shit
oh who the hell am I kidding, if anyone had been trying then they would have probably gotten through to me last night or something (I was not on the phone) |

all right so I am at CCRI right now
I HAVE BEEN BORED OUT OF MY WITS LATELY AND GOD DOES NOT REALLY LIKE THIS
the best part about this is when I start to basically hate god and the world due to marinating in my own thoughts and insecurities and television for days on en-
-OH MY GOD TELEVISION IS HORRIBLE there was a movie on TV it had Eddie Murphy in it and he was trying to fight people and it was stupid
I was only going to watch it for 20 seconds in order to laugh but I wound up watching it for a couple minutes because the Asian chick in the white robe got sprayed with a lot of water and was moving around a lot the end.
I sort of doubt anyone has been trying to actually contact me (and doubt anyone really would have, had I not mentioned it a whole bunch of times) but if you have been at nights and haven't been able to, it's probably because I've been on the phone with Krissy a lot due to a lack of anything better to do at all ever. So uh yeah if you want to call me or something I will try to not be on the phone tonight and also I will put my number in a friends-only entry after this.
Oh, I am also going to try getting some shit job at this college. Better than Stop & Shop, at least. |

(writing this in Notepad on Saturday, March 8th, 6:50PM)
So, I just watched True Romance (Nicole had sent me a copy of it a while ago).
Very Tarantino even though he didn't direct this one, although I don't see that as a bad thing. Weirdly enough, even though, as I said, he didn't direct it, it still seemed like it would have worked in his typical nonchronological order of scenes (oh god I cannot think of words right now and I apologize - all I could basically do after watching that was stare at the screen for a few minutes).
I think it was pretty damn good. Managed to combine Tarantino-style ultraviolence with character relationships you actually can manage to care about. I sort of forgot about the Tarantino a bit at first, which led to mistakes like thinking "huh she dresses sort of like a whore" before realizing that, odds are, everyone in the movie is pretty heavily fucked-up in some way or another (they were!) and that any judgement like that would be extremely, extremely petty by comparison.
So yeah, I'll probably be getting to CCRI and posting this on Monday, so Nicole, if you don't call me before then, yeah, I finally watched the damn thing. :o
*UPDATE (8:05PM)*
Playing Thief 2 after watching that sort of movie results in extra creepy. |

okay so I am at CCRI right now
trying to hurry up and right this
Oh: my dad sort of suddenly blew up my internet access so I won't be online for a while!
I have not gotten any phone calls from anyone except Krissy which does not really surprise me at all :D:D:D:D:DD because I have a sneaking suspicion in cases like this that no one really notices my absence
so uh yeah my phone lines are open 24/7 since my dad is not home till next Friday; but don't call me just because I'm mentioning it because then I'll hate you
but if you want to then uh go aheI LIKE TALKING TO MY GODDAMN FRIENDS YOU SONS OF JIGSOABBNNN

After all, only the creepy guys approach girls, because they have nothing to lose.
-- Kristin Strong, "A Maladjusted Cynic's Guide to Tooth-Gnashing and Pseudophilosophy"
NOTE: I had actually no desire to even contact her again :((( I just don't like it when people try to make me look bad in stupid ways?
Kid, seriously when you answer the door, put fucking pants on. You'll frighten someone.
Hey guys, did you get the memo? SHORTS ARE CREEPY! Seriously this is like the Victorian Era and shit and if anyone sees your ankles or lower legs or something you are fucking DEAD. God, this is fucking stupid.
She also apparently thinks I still want to be her friend or something? I have no idea. I really don't want to talk to her anymore, and I think the best thing would be if we just both stop saying shit about or to each other, but I'll be damned if she can manage that.
And I know now that I CAN DO SO MUCH BETTER THAN YOU. You know, date a -nice- boy. A boy with a sense of humor.
Oh god she met a guy at a club this is totally destroying my self-image :((((((
Guys, I apparently don't have a sense of humor. I guess this is why I put They Might Be Giants lyrics in bigass letters on that note I sent her, wrote "CAUTION: INTERNET" on the envelope, and slapped like 75 cents' worth of stamps on it just to be silly. I guess it's also why most of my recent posts involve me changing the text bubbles in comics.
Joe I should have just shut you down when I had the chance, rather than feeling bad about you because your grandmother just died and got myself stuck dating you for that waste of a month.
lol punk'd? :(
Again, Joe. You're freaking my ass out. If you keep this shit up I swear to god I will either talk to your damn father or go to the lincoln police and see if I can file a NO CONTACT ORDER.
"POLICE??? THERE IS AN EX-BOYFRIEND ON THE INTERNET I AM SAYING DUMB THINGS ABOUT HIM AND HE IS RESPONDING! WHAT DO I DO :(((("
oh god this is fucking stupid I think I'm just going to ignore it and hope it goes away like bad internet advertising
You know, that's actually something I've been meaning to learn for a long time. You know, the whole "how to just ignore someone when they're being really fucking stupid" thing. Hell, it's not like I even KNOW any of her friends except for one or two who I still talk personally anyhow, and this is all kind of petty and childish in the first place, so I suppose that if I HAVE to respond to anything she says from now on, it'll just be with irrelevant song lyrics or something.
(really, one of the major issues I kept going on about the "boxers" issue is the fact that I find it absolutely hilarious how tenaciously she will stick to her story about something as trivial as that! she does not like to lose face EVER and would probably tell you that blue is orange or something if necessary) |

On a slightly more serious note... I finally have the rest of the money Joe owed me, so that's over and done with thank GOD. Now I can send that awesome girl the money I owe her <3
Although the down side, the kid answered the door in his boxers. The least he could have done was thrown on some pants, for god's sake. But whatever, it's all over and I'm very very happy about that.
So apparently she doesn't understand the concept of "shorts" (I was wearing shorts!).
I made a comment explaining this, but she deleted it, blocked me from her journal, and failed to actually correct that part of the entry.
Seems like some people just don't have a problem spreading lies to damage another person's reputation, I guess.
I was going to post this handy diagram since she apparently STILL can't tell the difference between "pajama pants that are cut off and worn over normal underclothing" and "boxer shorts". But she disabled anonymous posting, so I guess now she'll never know? :(
god this is fucking stupid
I mean if you're going to try to make someone look bad, seriously guys, for future reference, come up with something a lot less dumb and trivial.
I didn't even really plan on ever talking to her ever but I get sort of indignant when people lie about shit to make me look bad. |

I did another Aggie Mack (this one is HIGHLY WRONG) and a couple of "Brewster Rockit" or something, the second of which makes more sense if you've played the System Shock games.
*EDIT* Err, first of which, rather.
