Hurrican't Sandy

I usually pride myself on being on the up n' up, but I literally didn't hear about Sandy until the day before it hit. I won't lie, at first I was psyched for some "Day After Tomorrow" shit, but, as is normal, I was let down. There were some cool pictures;

I almost shit a brick when I saw this.

But for the most part, it was rather lackluster.
Oh, and then there was that horse mask guy.
Now that was awesome.
I aspire to do something this stupid one day.

Seriously, internet...

I love Joseph Kony.
I love Amanda Todd.
I love Adalia Rose.
And it's not because I care about them, because I really don't. All are tragic stories in their own right, sure,
but that's the world for you. It's not a pretty place. In fact, there's so much bull shit going on that I dare say their tragedies pale in comparison to others. I won't lie; I really don't care.

Is that mean? Probably.
Does it make me a bad person? Depends on who you ask, though I think most internet denizens will tell you I am (Didn't I warn you about this in my first post, bio, etc.?). 
But, I'm honest.
That makes me better than these whores on YouTube on Facebook who wallow in these causes for money and attention. It made me sick to see these talentless hack "vloggers" generate thousands of dollars in ad revenue because they made a made a one minute video feigning sympathy for Amanda Todd and her story because they knew it would make money. I wretched when I saw people liking pictures of Adalia Rose, saying she was "adorable" and "cute" when they would recoil in abject terror upon seeing her in real life. I seethed when I saw people "like" everything and anything shat out by Invisible Children, thinking liking those statuses made them good people who make a legitimate change in the world.
What about the other handful of people on earth who suffer from progeria? Are they as "adorable" as Adalia Rose? Or what about the ugly guy who commits suicide because he was bullied? Does he not deserve the same amount of attention as Amanda Todd? What about actual humanitarian crises around the globe that aren't exaggerated and exploited to make money for rich Americans? Shouldn't we be spreading awareness about that rather than dumping money into the pocket of  a manipulative little shit who will spend the "donations" on hookers and blow?
Seriously, internet. 
What am I getting at with this? I have no idea. I just need to rant after seeing all this bullshit about Amanda Todd. It's just... ugh, INTERNET.
YOU'RE GONNA GIVE ME A ANYUERISM.

PewDiePie isn't funny

Hey, all none of you who watch this blog with bated breath for my next incredibly well thought out and intelligent posts/rants! Remember how I said I had something big planned?
Well, this isn't it. It was originally part of it, but I decided it was best kept succint and isolated.
Besides, I've been addicted to Pokemon White 2 like a junkie (14 hours logged the day I got it, for instance), so I haven't had time for much else.

That aside, you know who I really hate?
Pewdiepie.
I saw this video and instantly remembered why.
And then I was like, "I was going to write a big, long article filled with impressive vocabulary and silly captions, but this basically says it better than I ever could. And it's actually funny."
So yeah, here it is; "Adults React to Pewdiepie".

Not only does it showcase Pewdiepie in his natural habitat (Read: screaming incoherently about rape) at literally it's most unrefined and pure form, but its also a parody of those awful Fine Bros. "Teens React To -insert trending video here-"
Because a bunch of high schoolers gawking at bronies and acting awkward is totally HILARIOUS and not something I saw in high school every day. And it's basically the internet equivalent of "Kids say the Darndest things". Only it's missing Bill Cosby. And it's not funny either.
Bill Cosby doesn't give a shit how teenagers who probably use hashtags on Facebook feel about "Gangnam Style", and neither should anyone else.

Decisions, decisions...

So, my friend started contemplating the looming 2012 Armaggedon that undoubtly grows larger and larger as the date barrels towards us (For the record, before we continue, I think - no, I know, this whole 2012 thing is a load of bunk/scam/hoax/insanity). He said something rather interesting, and I quote;

"If anything happens, I hope it's like the End of Evangelion. I keep hearing things about Lake Vostok, and I bet there's a god-fetus or something that they'll uncover that will force everyone to ascend into Insturmentality, and we'll all turn into orange tang."

Something like this, if you wanted a visual aid.

It got me thinking.
What song should I listen to in those "final" moments?

or

It's very important. This could mean the difference between getting turned into orange tang and ascending into Instrumentality/Godhood with all you other jerk-offs and all the people I hate (lame), or being the new Adam with a fine-ass Eve?
Yeah, you guys have fun with all of your single consciousness, Instrumentality, Arthur C. Clarke nonsense.
I've got work to do.
