If you're still alive after the boring intro...

Okay, enough about the boring intro then. I didn't really want to write today, but I had to: after all,the blog is way too new.

Hm...

Okay, it will be an old subject of mine, which might (and probably will) annoy me, but for the sake of you, the readers... I'll do it (yes, you should be giving me chocolates or pizza in return for that sacrifice).

Recently, I've noticed a trend in the internetz: Quotes that make you look 'cool'. I'm talking about those quotes that appear next to the avatar of a person.

Seriously, do you actually like or think about what you write there? In 90 percent of the cases, it's something along the lines of "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former ". That's said by Albert Einstein and I swear to whatever god is out there, if I could, I'd shoot on sight the person who wrote his words for all eternity. The other is "I love you!!!!!!!!!! I can't live without you, you're my soul, sun, moon" after just one or two weeks of even knowing the girl (I bet if he was given some truth serum, then the sun, soul and moon will be replaced by the words "I simply like having sex with you that much), which is a bit too much for a teenager (usually they write these things). Of course, exceptions exist.

About the first: Damn. My personal thoughts : The majority of these posters think that it makes them cool and intelligent, but it's so obvious that they don't look up to Einstein all day and that they direly want to look better than the rest, yet it's so obvious that it becomes pathetic. There are exceptions - if you're really into these kinds of stuff or if it's not such a famous quote, but something fascinating that nobody ever heard of, then that makes you look interesting. The former makes you look like an attention whore.

And "I love you!!!" spam... Seriously, do you love her? You might like her, but for a week or two you probably don't even know her. And yet, I keep seeing comments like "I can't live without you", "you are my shining star in the darkness", "you are my spring in the winter", etc. Coming from teenage boys. After a one week relationship (It is acceptable, if it's a long term thing
, yeah, but one week?).

Damn.

And thanks for reading. Now, I must fulfill a quest. For my mother asked me to buy a pizza. I kissed her and asked myself "Since when do I need anyone to ask me to buy pizza?!".
