[Greg Has a Book] No U Turns, Except Wednesdays

[Dusk]

That video made me so, so happy. Oh man. I miss having cable.

Don't Stop Me Now Step aside heartfelt soul food, the sass is back, and it just got itself a make over. I'm not the coolest cat on the block. Hell, I'm not even a cat, but I can freak out with the best of then. And who is them? Oh, I think you know and in the interest of remaining vague and unclear I'll let that simmer for a while before turning up the gas. Grow some skin. Thicken that up. Grab some humility. Take off your sunglasses at night - no, you don't need to watch me weave - and for love of balls, get your ass a suitable sense of humor. Does that mean laugh? No. It means the world is not on a fatal collision with an asteroid in the coming year and if you let the Aztecs freak you out because they understood the concept of zero then, my friend, we have a doctor just for you. This is the internet, boys and girls, that usual shelf of body language and giggling happy sauce avails you no more. You are what you say and that, for most of us, is a barreling mistake of short, sweet successive failures one after another. "But Greg!" You may exclaim. "How are we to get along and live with each other in peace and harmony?" The voice has a point. Truth? We won't. Hate happens. Annoyance happens. Some people just suck. I, personally, blow. We do it by cutting slack and ignoring those that make use want to beat our heads against the wall. We do it by raging aside in private conversations. And lately that just doesn't feel like enough. Call me a liar (you wouldn't be the first), but I'm patient. Oh. I am. Sure, I prod and poke along with the rest of the universe, but this boiling point of irritated gospel spew is sitting just below the surface, stalking and waiting for that one, snarky bit of sarcasm designed to interject a smidgen of wit in that chaotic mass of post humanistic interactions. Get. A. Clue. Some of us are having trouble keeping a handle on our tempers. Some of us need need our little scrapbooks to keep ourselves from raining all over the parade, otherwise we may just got postal and quit our routes. Stress is only worth what you get out of it and just that much consideration would go a long way to preventing some of us from spiraling out of control. Drama sucks. I hate drama. Drama can play with itself in the corner. I don't want drama. I want to go and chat and giggle and enjoy and make silly and be srs and blah, blah, blah, etcetera. There is no pertinent message here. This is a call to shut up. To buck up. To get your ass your own cake and then eat that bastard, because cake is delicious and no matter what they say, they are wrong and need to get off my soap box. It's mine, I tell you. Mine. Extra Credit : "It's 106 miles to Chicago, we got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark... and we're wearing sunglasses."

I. Love. The Blues Brothers.

Rhu I usually don't say this but man I LOVE your scrapbooks.

The Scrubs video was the final touch for me. I'm suscribing for your stuff if I can figure out how.

[Larina]

I've having trouble making this post not be all gushy over how much I love your music selection. Nope. Not gonna happen...But I did have to stop and have a dance party to Mr. Fahrenheit. No shame.

But really. Greg. I love your posts. Don't ever stop, please.

What Do You Think? I'm curious. I'm also human. Whoa, epiphany. To cut a short anecdote shorter I want to know what you, fair reader of my scrapping, think. Yes, you, that lovely individual taking time out of the day to read the rantings and ravings of a twenty-something malcontent. Whether it be a scathing review of utter lack of ability or the highest praise one mortal could wish for, I care not. I like to know where I stand with people. It allows me to suck up all the easier. With that in mind, maybe you can toss in a shot or two about how I act, what you don't like about me, and maybe even what you wish I would stop doing. Honesty, my dear lovely reader, is what I respect the most. It may be that you don't want to call me out. Well, bugger on you, pansy face, I would not be doing this if I was not in the mindset to be torn down and built up again right proper. And really, if I don't know what I'm doing wrong, improper, and which shenanigans need to halt, then how would I stop such silliness? This has a deeper stem, of course. People tend to withhold their opinions. I see it on chat all the time. I do it myself. The folks I spam in private messengers can tell you all about it. Some people hate other people. Oh. My. God. Who knew? So instead of those various snickersnacks and hijinks that seem all-too inviting, I'd rather get this all out in the open and have a good old fashion internet smack talking session. Bring it on. And I suppose that's all I have to say. Oh yeah. If you're too embarrassed to let everyone know how you think, PMs are awesome. Also, wuss.

You know, after hearing stories about all the duplicity that goes on, I tend to waffle between wondering what's going on in the shadows and feeling grateful that I'm not involved. I only know you from the transient superficiality of chat, which isn't enough to form a full-fledged opinion, but I respect that you're confronting the bullshit. I've found you a bit cocky at times, but generally amusing. I can't say that I give much of a shit how you behave. I'd only care if you were being duplicitous.

[Elhaym]

I sometimes wonder if you're really the same person I'm talking to on Skype when we're playing LoL when I read your scrapbook...

Is that a nasty comment? Hmm. Mull that one over and decide for yourself. Heh heh.

[Kelpie]

I'll have to agree with Jared on this. You're a douchebag playing LoL and you're not ass bad when not playing it. But not like I care it makes me laugh. It's just annoying when you tell someone to "STFU I'M TALKING."

Also, I still hate ~. And always will.

I love Community!! *gives you +5 cool points*

Truthfully, I think you are a snide meanie who needs to go sit in a hole and think about how terrible he is.

Just kidding!

In all truth, I think you are a great person. You are really easy to talk to and you always listen when I have something nasty I have to say.
