Chat logs, pictures and music...oh my!

I've been utterly bored the last few days. Nothing much to do but deal with real life issues, which has taken front seat to the internet life. Bored, bored, bored I was, so I decided to backup goliath's old HD, and happened upon a folder of chat logs, pictures and music. I viewed loads of the pictures and put all the music on loop as I perused the logs.

Many of the chat logs were from over a year ago. I read into the night...sometimes laughing...sometimes getting annoyed... and sometimes even getting angry at the blatant stupidity of some of these people in trying to understand what I'm supposedly all about. No matter how much I explained myself for things I said or did they seem to think to this day there should be a manual for me so I can be understood. Go figure!

I highly doubt I'm a complex person, I'm very simple in likes, dislikes and personality. I'm just like the next person, or so I believe.

I delved even further into the chats, really focusing on how they changed from one moment in the past to the most recent from each individual. People can really change within a year's time. Here's a few examples:
  • One individual went from being morally upstanding, and declining any attempt made towards following what we would call "lemmings", to growing out the hair and getting it shagged, acquiring piercings and getting inked. All within 8 months from the last serious chat. Finally went emo in outward appearance, because the inside emo sure as hell was already there!

  • Then one individual who was sweet and considerate, always openminded, you could trust them wholeheartedly with anything, went from having great potential...to being an outright controlling, disrespectful, backstabber. And all because they simply couldn't understand what I said. I feel the loss. I honestly do. Fuck you very much, you arrogant cunt, thank you for making me feel stupid in the end.

  • One individual went from missing the old days at a certain location to shittigating any chance they got because of it. I put my foot down and that person completely disappeared. You can't have the past next to your present on your dinner plate, buddy. It's as wrong as when people put ketchup on a medium-rare filet mignon, it's just not right, no matter how much you like it. Grow up!

  • Then there was one individual who finally got their life together and on the right track and completely moved on. I can see it, and feel it. Life is like a box of chocolates. If you eat all the good ones, you end up with the spongy gross ones. That's all I have to say about that.

  • Another individual went from being amazing to a shell of their former self. All within a year. No drug can help this person. No advice can help this person. No amount of money can help this person. Only thing that can help this person is for a house to drop from the sky and fall on their head. Fuck the ruby slippers! I never wanted them anyways!

There were many others...some convoluted. Many wanting power on the interweb and feeling like they have it when in fact their time went out the door alongside Webcrawler.com. Others using the interweb to run from admitting they have a fat lady sitting on their head. Everyone else can see it, but they can't! Some wanting pure and simple attention because no one else would give it to them in real life. Etc..etc..etc.

You're one of those people. I'm one of those people. We're all one of those people. If any of you who actually take the time to read this crap of a blog of mine feel that I'm talking about you in those examples...I might be. Or maybe not. But if the shoe fits...make damn sure it's the correct size before you decide to buy it.

Lots and lots of interesting reading. People do change..and rather quickly from what I read the last couple of days. Some for the best, others for the worst. I will say one thing though...

Sometimes...

The person who changes the most...

...is the one who says the least.

Food for thought, my friends. Food for thought.

Would you like some beans with that shit burger?

P.S. My analogies suck don't they? *snickers* Blame all the V.C. Andrews I've been reading lately, since my eyes are the only thing that function properly this last week!
