  • The Fight to be as Me as I want to Be

    I don't know why, but the response to my last post really irritated me. One of the responses basically said that they couldn't believe I was actually so angry with my brother. Excuse me, but...are you kidding me?! Don't you think I'm human?! This is unfortunately the cross I bear for focusing my blog on smart stuff and trying to be intellectual instead of just dropping a few words about sex to get people to read my weak content. This is what I get for keeping the focus on my words instead of on my skin.

    Look, I'm a real person. I get angry with  my brother...and the person ahead of me in traffic, and the lady at Subway who doesn't give me enough lettuce in my sandwich. I get horny. I get silly and lonely and desperate. You're not going to read most of that on here. I've always kept my blog standards up high. I didn't want to put anything on it that would discourage other people. I didn't want to talk about sex because I didn't want to offend anyone. I didn't even talk about Christianity lately because I wasn't sure how to put it in a way that non-Christians would understand.

    But maybe I've been wrong to repress those natural human emotions. Maybe I should unleash myself on this blog after all and stop holding back. It seems to work for a lot of other people! I mean, seriously, only 16 comments on my last blog? 16?! I got featured twice, and the next blog only gets 16 comments when I talk about something smart and useful?! I hate this place sometimes. I'm going to make some changes around here. This can't go on. Perhaps Mohammed needs to come to the mountain this once.

    Note: This post was part of an elaborate April Fools joke in which I played the part of an attention-seeking blog divo.
