The Latest Reality Show: Weblogs?
Is it just me who has realised this or are we so bombarded by the media that we have become automatons of their little puppet game? The majority of weblogs out there in the blogoverse have become just the next reality show.
There was one very good reason why I stopped watching TV (okay maybe 2...actually lots but I can't be buggered to start on that rant now) and that was the advent of reality TV shows. I will give the creators of such stains as Big Bro the credit they deserve and go as far as to call them geniuses (genii?) for pulling that idea out of their maggot infested sceptic tanks of a mind. For some reaons it has become more acceptable to gawp at the idiot box and watch a bunch of other fat/gobby/gay/bi/Al-Quaeda orangutans lead their exceptionally dull and bigotted lives than it is to watch cartoons/porn/cartoon porn. And now we are no longer tied down to the beloved couch and the neuron-annihilating TV and are free to logon and indulge ourselves reading about the existence of other human being (used in the broadest sense of the term) on the gazillion weblogs rather than living our own existence!
There is only one thing to say: "Stop reading my blog and GET A LIFE!" Without exception, everyone who publishes regularly to their own blog with the hope that some sad, pimply kid will read it and that they may even find it interesting are the biggest losers and are a waste of good oxygen...oh, wait...

you apparently followed your own advice, which is great from one perspective, but there's something to be said for living a life and blogging about it (or is that just my way of justifying my life-long addiction to writing that has turned into an addiction to posting my ramblings all over the web?...
hey, but I have much fun on and offline and so I continue... you ought to check in now and then because your writing is enjoyable, but whatever you are doing I hope you are enjoying it...
