you know what pisses me off?

<3 <---- this pisses me off.

i like ascii art as much as the next guy... but i mean... damn!
why is everyone and their dog using this these days...

i've gotten used to that god-awful phrase 'lol' over time... it, at least, has been around for ever. but just recently has the little heart thingy gained popularity... and it pisses me off. i can only stand for so much stupid chat-room bullshit. i suppose this is somewhat hypocritical, i use brb all the time, and even the occational emoticon ( :) ), but still... this is just retarded...

...or maybe i'm just bitter.

oh, and i also use things like 'wtf' and 'stfu' and 'omfg', but those are good since they incorporate the word 'fuck' into cute internet slang.

on a similar note... wtf (heh) is up with the 'now playing:' stuff that people do. yeah, i know that it isn't just a recent thing like the '<3' thingy, but still... WHO GIVES A SHIT?!? well, i don't anyway... i have never once dled a song and listened to song because someone put it in their 'now listening to:' section of their profile/blog/xanga/livejournal/whatever. if the song is really that damn good tell me to go get it, actually tell me and odds are that i will.

i really should capitalize/punctuate correctly when i type in my blog or in aim convesrations. i think that maddox guy is right about that. i've been doing it like this for so long now though that it would be kinda retarded to change.

it was about this time that i realized how pointless all this ranting was. i started to rant about something actaully meaningful (in this case the upcoming presidential election). then i stopped. that was pointless too...

heh.

i'm done.


p.s. if you think your life sucks please just stfu and get over it. everyone's life sucks... and it dosen't help anyone to hear you bitch and whine when everyone else has their own damn problems. you really can't expect someone to just come along and fix it for you... the only person who can do that is you... so instead of just wallowing in self-pity and other bullshit that annoys the hell out of me, why don't you just fix the damn problem. it probably isn't that bad anyway. life sucks, get over it, and instead of making you and everyone around you miserable, why not just have a little fun? is it really that hard? i didn't think so.

p.p.s. (i'm not talking about tragic events in life, such as a loved one dying or leaving or something like that, i'll accept bitching/whining in those kinds of situations, but other than that... just stfu and make a change for the better.)
