Rupert Murdoch can rim my asshole clean.

(just so i don't get sued, this entire post is in sarcasm)

Seriously, the old man who owns (through a giant media company) myspace can rim my asshole nice and slow.

In case you didn't know myspace (dot) com is full of Bad Hair, pedophiles, shitty bands, tools,and is one of the top social networking sites. Facebook recently has taken myspace's throne as shittest largest social networking site. Facebook has it's disadvantages, but in general doesn't have the spam (other than fucking app requests) that seems to permeate through myspace's teen angst ridden pores. Seriously, I delete spam messages and friend requests on average of twice a day. My very unused hotmail account doesnt get that much spam on average. And I've signed up for PORN using that address!

So why all the ire, and venom and hate, you ask?
Let's take a look....
That's right! Mysack has declaired my BLOG a PHISHING SCAM! This blog is a motherfucking phishing scam! I want your passwords and your money! Muhahahaha!

This blog will curve your spine, infect your soul, and keep the country from winning the war (George Carlin tribute/homage/reference)(Kentuckistan would be a wonderful name for a foreign power)!

I'm active, to a point, on a few different social networking sites; and if you look hard enough, you can find me.

I don't want to friend Tawney and Sheenah, I don't need to read chain letters in bullitens, I don't want my time to be wasted. I like my friends, I like silly surveys, I like being in the loop. But I'm sick of the bullshit. First from the majority of its users, now from the site itself.

My message for Rupert and the idiots working for myspace tag my blog as phishing spam... let me let George Carlin sum up my feelings.



I don't have pet peeves, I have major psychotic fucking hatreds, okay?

Trying to post this again

things that are pissing me off, again.

1. Television

TV, you had a GREAT good medocre run. I am going to give you Pros and Cons in various categories then decide if you're worth having around, TV.

1. Technology
Thanks to TV, we do have higher definition, remotes, portable movie players, Video on Demand, HDMI, and various ways of pirating TV and Movies. Howerver, with highdefinition comes great responcibilities. Who here has a Blu-ray Disc burner? Who has a HDMI ready computer monitor? Who really wants porn in high-def? For me, the answers are no, sort of, and Oh Dear Sweet Buddah NO!

2. Programming
With the exception of some brilliant programs, TV in the past 10, no 20 years have been shit. America loves (according to the Neilson Raitings) American Idol (2005-2008), CSI (2003-04), Friends (2002), Survivor (2001) and Who Wants to be A Millionaire (2000). So for half of the current decade we are living in, we've spend time watching idiots on gameshows trying to win either a million dollars(Survivor, Millionare, Idol), cars (Survivor, Idol) or a recording contract/souless existance (American Idol).

11 of the top 20 prime time telecasts from 1964-present have been sporting events. The only really redeaming quality of that list is that the series finale of MASH tops the list and the finale of Roots is at number 3.

So we watch reality TV and sports, programming in my opinion, that makes us docile and complacent, and does not teach us anything. Even the most basic sitcom has the basic premise of Good v. Bad or Idocy v. Intellegence. Sometimes they get the message right (M*A*S*H), sometimes they get it wrong (Seinfeld), sometimes they just leave us confused (LOST).

Programming on the History, Discovery, Investigation and A&E have much more intellegent programming than most of the other channels. Discovery Channel has MythBusters; FOX has Family Guy, need I say more


3. Storytelling
In case you haven't noticed, TV isn't about this anymore, it's about getting you to BUY BUY BUY shit that you do not need. Average half hour programs are actually 22 minuits, to allow for 8 minutes of commercials. Over the course of 10 hours, American viewers will see approximately 3 hours of advertisements. They are now thinking of using embedded ads to annoy people like me. Kind of like popup adds, or the annoying topper bars on old geocities webpages.

4. News
General Electric owns NBC, MSNBC, CNBC and Court TV.
Westinghouse is partners with CBS including 48 Hours and 60 Minutes.
Newscorp owns FOX and it's subsidearies.
Time Warner owns CNN.
Disney owns ABC.

We have no real news any more, Edward R. Murrow would be ashamed.

I say let's leave TV for now, watch and watch it all you want people. I'll continue to remain behind the times, and pirate the shows I like. And I'll gladly get my news from the internets.

2. l33tsp33k and or CaPaTaLiZiNg RandOM LETTErS

Okay, unless you are writing in a code (house of leaves), lolspeek and the aboved mentioned typography issues piss me the fuck off. I mean, internet culture is amusing to a degree, and I do use it, mostly in an ironic or sarcastic sense. Hell, this WebLog (figure it out kids) is an accidental reference to internet culture, and since I am posting this in them thar series of tubes I feel that I have a right to mock the idocy of the internet from time to time.

Lolcode, a programing language that mimics the speech patterns of captioned felines. An example follows.
HAI
CAN HAS STDIO?
PLZ OPEN FILE "LOLCATS.TXT"?
AWSUM THX
VISIBLE FILE
O NOES
INVISIBLE "ERROR!"
KTHXBYE

What the fuck, guys? Does this really DO anything? What are you trying to acomplish 
beside amusing me for 20 seconds?

3.Blogger.com
Okay, this is biting the hand that feeds you, but why the fuck did this post decide to not connect to 
blogger.com, then refuckingformat the post like 3 times. shit was going out of the edges, and I couldn't read 
what i typed origionaly.


EDIT: this is still fucked up in my little blogger.com window, text overlapping picture of the internets 
is all covered in text....  It pissed me off that all of this shit looks like crap on the entry page, and then 
crap on the page because somehow my html formatting got royaly fucked in the ass with a big rubber 
dildo with a mickymouse head on the end...
EDIT 2: trying to get this reformatted is pissing me off more and more. so, it's going up as is. eat my shit blogger.com
