Canada

Well I figured if you were going to be reading this I may as well write something and dedicate it to you, and the surprisingly interesting conversation we had while scrabbling. Truly it was the last place I would have expected to find someone fun to talk. But that's just me.

It's hard to find people you like for many reasons. Today people only have friends they find socially acceptable and looks seem to mean everything. Meeting someone without actually seeing them is usually deemed "Desperate" and possibly even dangerous, depending on how old you are and whether or not they want to meet at a playground so you can help them find their puppy.

I have found that the meaning of friendship has been forgotten and now your friends are chosen based on what everyone else thinks. What is so important about what everyone else thinks?

This is the part of my post where I continue through the piece and change the subject. Even though there is some relevance between this part and the previous by high school teacher standards this is a big "no-no".

The media is in many ways a wonderful thing. But in my personal opinion its one fatal flaw makes it unacceptable and therefore I find it completely not worth while. The media and celebrities have created an army of preteen peer pressure addicts who seem to think conformity is the only way to be cool. I can't tell you how much its things like this that drive me insane. Now I have talked about this before with people and the general response from most of these mindless media addicts was simply that I must have been one of the losers that didn't fit in. Truth be told I was pretty popular in high school, but i did it without becoming someone I wasn't. I did it without trying to have the Brad Pitt body and the magazine personality, I was just me and people liked it. There's proof, right there, you can be cool, a non-conformist and be yourself all at once.

Thank you, thank you. But really, this whole thing just obnoxious. I just can't understand why anyone would want to be something their not. It goes right back the media and how these celebrities and other people unwittingly take control of these incorrigible kids and turn them into self loathing jackasses.

Well that's it for today. I hope you enjoyed it and if you didn't...that sucks.

Well Canada i hope you enjoyed it. Sorry but i don't know your name, so I guess Canada will have to do for now.
