To Blog or not To Blog?
What is a blog? How to blog? Is a blog the way out, is a blog the way in? If Hemingway or Shakespeare were writing in 2009, would they have a blog or is this piece of writing on the internet the complete antithesis of what they were aiming for? Indeed, if the characters of Hamlet, Macbeth and Shylock were first paraded in front of cyberspace to all the Kelly Slater "surfers"out there, would they have gone down in literary history as the most complex and renowned characters ever paraded in front of the general public? No, no they would not.
Fuck, questions aside this piece of writing will hopefully open up everyone's eyes to what the world is like from the opinion of someone who genuinely knows nothing about it. However, the cynic inside wants to open up the world, peel back the envelope just an inch and take a little glance inside. I hope that by doing so nothing will be uncovered or revealed to me that I can't take back. A lot like £32million on Andrei Shevchenko but that is going to be the subject of another one of these little posts.
Anyways, everything aside I have just got back from Salcombe in Devon and feel the need to put out some home truths. These need to be published somewhere and this is the easiest and best forum at the moment. Uncensored.
Uno : Jack Wills & Ugg Boots. Literally we all need to move on with our lives and get over it. Come on people in the vast chasm that is society, strive out and go for something different. It's not tricky just do what you think is going to be best. JW, A&F, D&G let's all try and move away and find something different. Seriously, let it die.
Dos: Service stations. How is it possible that we as a society have decided to focus so heavily on pirates in somalia, silvio berlusconi feeling up every young bambina that he sets his eyes on and oh, of course bloody swine flu but this blatent consumerism and social injustice passes unoticed throughout the ripples of life. £5 for a sandwich, £1.70 for a bottle of coke (also, on that note, if diet coke has less calories that why isn't it cheaper? If I'm the consumer and getting less for my money then why the hell am I paying the same amount? Riddle me this.) How dare they?!
Oh and Three: If you are one of those people on mass public transport, healthy man or woman who doesn't stand up for someone pregnant, then you deserve to be locked in a room and have Moby Dick read to you over and over again. Anyone who doesn't understand that analogy or has never even picked up Melville's "classic" - don't worry. As a public announcement don't try and read hat piece of shit....ever. 600 words of tuna aside, stand up for pregnant women on buses, trains or the tube, always there is no exception to that cause.
So, this blog has to come to an end. Rubbish but true. The truth doesn't have to hurt but unfortunately it really does. A lot like those 118 118 ads.
Peace x

strong start. you've done well. just have. maybe people who dont stand up for pregnant women should be forced to wear ugg boots forever. that'll learn 'em.
ReplyDeleteas long as it's this years jack wills i'm fine with it. anything a season old, don't think about looking at it mother!
ReplyDeleteservice stations. if we're too disorganised to sort out a snack and a drink before we leave then serves us right... although granted a tepid bottle of coke is nothing compared to a nice chilled one.
Not standing up for someone who's preggers. really poor...
