So......

So why am i doing this?

Why should i write down my thoughts for all to see, judge and comment?
There is that innate need to tell a tale or blurt out your life and experiences to total strangers in an unrealised fashion - because really.....we've all been there haven't we?

I mean, don't we all, at some point, want to tell the world something?  Back in the day it was journals and diaries - the hand written word - kept secret or published for the world to see and read.  So how's it any different now? I guess it is a bit. Information is so easy to obtain, its fantastic.  We now feel, thanks to the overwhelming social networking that is out there, that we all feel the need to be heard above all the others that are yelling out their tale.  For me though, it comes down to how people do it.  For one, people's spelling and grammar is shit.  I'm not going to say I am the greatest at getting it right, I'm not (at least i try) but the world seems to be.....um, whats the word....Text mad? Textified? Text zoids?  There is no word for it is there?  Ppl that r typing like they r 4 yr old, lol, u get me? yolo. What a load of shit.  I don't mind really that people type this way, its when they say it in everyday life.  For example, instead of saying "Oh my God", some twats say "O.M.G"  Do they realise that the abbreviation has the same amount of syllables as the ACTUAL SENTENCE!!!!!!  It sounds stupid, they are stupid for saying it, it is not "cool" or "hip" or "in", its just dumb.

Whenever i have a rant, I always have a mental image of Animal from the Muppet Show, just after he has thrashed out a drum solo and is holding tight to his sticks and his shoulders are going up and down, in time with his heavy breathing.

So blogs are the new way of writing your thoughts huh? Well I am new to this medium.  Not sure if anyone will read this.  It's funny.......I don't actually care if it is never read.  HAHAHA.
So the question still remains....why do it?
Why not?  Its therapeutic that's for sure.  I get to be one of those voices in the networking void that yells and rants and shares, just like countless others before.

The reason doesn't matter, just the purpose.

Umm......

This is the beginning of the end.

Taking time to type thoughts that roll around in your head.  How's it supposed to make sense?
Random thoughts, random meanings, trivia, facts and figures and imaginations.
How do you do it without sounding pretentious?  

Never the first or the last, one of the many to join the club of evocation of "the blog".
