Weirdest Song Ever?

So I extend a challenge to my existential readers, think of the weirdest song in existence. Name it and explain why you think it is ooood. I will start off:

-Daft Punk "Technologic"

Because it pretty much repeats this for 6 minutes :

♫ Buy it, use it, break it, fix it,
Trash it, change it, mail - upgrade it,
Charge it, point it, zoom it, press it,
Snap it, work it, quick - erase it,
Write it, cut it, paste it, save it,
Load it, check it, quick - rewrite it,
Plug it, play it, burn it, rip it,
Drag and drop it, zip - unzip it,
Lock it, fill it, call it, find it,
View it, code it, jam - unlock it,
Surf it, scroll it, pause it, click it,
Cross it, crack it, switch - update it,
Name it, rate it, tune it, print it,
Scan it, send it, fax - rename it,
Touch it, bring it, Pay it, watch it,
Turn it, leave it, start - format it. ♫

Poetry xP

"Are you apathetic to poetry"
Yes!
"Do you dread even the thought of studying poetry"
Yes, yes!!!
"Well then, no ammount of discussion will help you"
Oh... : (

I am not kidding, because this is what was seriously written on a "Help with Poetry for Senior Students" website. I don't suggest these websites to anyone that actually wants a response that makes sense, that is, an answer that contain-eth sense.

Conversely, I really enjoy writing, and sometimes, reading poetry. However, I just thought it would be amusing to watch a person that hates poetry read that post, and then be like, "well, that helped...".

Another really funny point within the site was the paragraph for students that DO LIKE poetry. It went something like this: "Do you secretly read and write poetry when no-one is watching?"

                                                                          WHAT???

Camping

I'm going camping...in a small tent...with 3 other people. I wonder if I talk in my sleep...?


My dreams are pretty odd, so if I do talk in my sleep, it probably sounds like this:


-Take her, NOT ME!!!
-To the mothership!!!
-Frodo...Sam...Frodo....Sam....................Dumbledore???
-The Butler, in the library.....wrench




Will be back in 2 days : )

Megamind!

Megamind is possibly the funniest cartoon I have seen all year! It is unlike the many cartoons released recently, which all lack an interesting storyline and humour for +5's.

The graphics were AMAZING! Small things like: the creases on the outfits, and the way that the characters' hair blew in the wind added to the overall, what's the word, awesomeness! 

I would have to say that it is very similar to Madagascar. This is a large compliment, because it's my favourite cartoon : ).

The best part would have to be -Megamind:"holo..."
                                                -Minion: "It's Hello."

Music Strike! xP

Yes, I am on a music strike! No music for an entire month, not even a jingle. I have realised that I plug in my iPod whenever boredom rears her ugly head. This means that I listen to music at least 2-3 hours everyday! I am going to stop myself from downloading, buying and listening to music...

It has been 2 days already, and I am on the verge of breaking my vow! This experience (yes, 2 days counts as an "experience") has made me realise how reliant I am on music...and how much I love it : ).

...I'm off to uTube!

Othello...

Yesterday, I was debating the effects on our society if Shakespeare never existed.
I came up with only one:


1. Everyone in the world would be happy. There would be no more war, poverty and boredom. More students would take higher level english, no longer afraid that their focus text would be in a foreign tongue.


Seriously though, my english class next year has about 10 people in it. "Girls, we will be studying "Othello" in first term next year." Upon this announcement, the demand for advanced/extension english suddenly decreased.


Don't get me wrong. I think that Shakespeare was an absolute genius for coming up with plots that have been fashioned into some of the most popular movies today e.g. "Clueless", "She's The Man." However, the language is so incomprehensible to me. I studied one paragraph for 15 minutes, having to flick from Othello to the dictionary about 30 times. Eventually I discovered that in one paragraph (28 lines), all Iago did was explain his plan to lie to Othello about his wifey!


I just can't bring myself to read the book. It's lying on my table...taunting me!!! I'll have to read it eventually. Here I go...

Star Signs

I receive -as people do- about one hundred chain emails everyday. I can stand the funny and informative ones, but by no means the emails that seek to make you feel all cuddly, appreciative...and bored. I ABSOLUTELY HATE IT when I receive emails that freeze my computer for 20 minutes, and when they open, lo and behold a slide show presentation with images of flowers, and little children...*shiver*


...Anyways, that rant about chain emails is not the point of this post. Instead I just really wanted to make fun of an email I just received entitled: "Your 2010 Horoscope - Very Accurate - Interesting."


Today I will creating my own star sign description...thing.


ARIES (The Aggressive): Outgoing. Lovable. Spontaneous. Not one to mess with. Funny... Excellent kisser. EXTREMELY adorable. Loves relationships, and family is very important to an Aries. Aries are known for being generous and giving. Addictive. Loud. Always has the need to be 'Right'. Aries will argue to prove their point for hours and hours. Aries are some of the most wonderful people in the world. 16 years of bad luck if you do not forward.

Right, so this is saying that Aries' are really awesome people, just laugh at all their jokes and agree with everything they say...or they'll beat you up.


TAURUS (The Tramp): Aggressive. Loves being in long relationships. Likes to give a good fight. Fight for what they want. Can be annoying at times, but for the love of attention. Extremely outgoing. Loves to help people in times of need. Good kisser. Good personality. Stubborn. A caring person. They can be self-centred and if they want something they will do anything to get it. They love to sleep and can be lazy. One of a kind. Not one to mess with. Are the most attractive people on earth! 15 years of bad luck if you do not forward.

So a very loud shout out to all the tramps, I mean, Tauruses-sss in the world. This star sign is defined as being aggressive, annoying, selfish, stubborn and lazy...but, don't worry they're very good looking. Also, when they aren't being vindictive bum-faces they have pretty good personalities and are out going.


GEMINI (The Twin): Nice. Love is one of a kind. Great listeners. Very good at confusing people. Lover not a fighter, but will still knock you out. Geminis will not take any crap from anyone. Geminis like to tell people what they should do and get offended easily. They are great at losing things and are forgetful. Geminis can be very sarcastic and childish at times and are very nosey. Trustworthy. Always happy. VERY Loud. Talkative. Outgoing. VERY FORGIVING. Loves to make out. Has a beautiful smile. Generous. Strong. THE MOST IRRESISTIBLE. 9 years of bad luck if you do not forward. 


Wow, I am flabbergasted by the contradictory statements in this star sign:
-"Not a fighter, but will still knock you out..."
-"Nice." "Can be very sarcastic"
-"Nosey." "Trustworthy."
-"Get offended easily." "Strong."


This is almost like those daily predictions that say: "you will attend an event with lots of people...or maybe not."


CANCER (The Beauty): MOST AMAZING KISSER. Very high appeal. A Cancer's love is one of a kind... Very romantic. Most caring person you will ever meet in your life. Entirely creative person, most are artists and insane, respectfully speaking. Extremely random. An ultimate freak. Extremely funny and is usually the life of the party. Most Cancers will take you under their wing and into their hearts where you will remain forever. Cancers make love with a passion beyond compare. Spontaneous. Not a fighter, but will kick your ass good if it comes down to it. Someone you should hold on to! 12 years of bad luck if you do not forward.
"Most cancers will take you under their wings." I can't tell if they're using "wing" as a symbol for care, responsibilty etc. Afterall, cancerians are so insanely, and freakishly random that they may actually have evolved with...wings.



LEO (The Lion):  Great talker. Attractive and passionate. Laid back. Usually happy but when unhappy tend to be grouchy and childish. A Leo's problem becomes everyone's problem. Most Leos are very predictable and tend to be monotonous. Knows how to have fun. Is really good at almost anything. Great kisser. Very predictable. Outgoing. Down to earth. Addictive. Attractive. Loud. Loves being in long relationships. Talkative. Not one to mess with. Rare to find. Good when found. 7 years of bad luck if you do not forward.


I'm going to be serious now. Leo seem to be really nice when at their best, but if you get on their bad side...you will be mauled : ( .


Gaaaahhhh, 7 more to go...


VIRGO (The One that Waits): Dominant in relationships. Someone loves them right now. Always wants the last word. Caring. Smart. Loud. Loyal. Easy to talk to. Everything you ever wanted. Easy to please. A pushover. Loves to gamble and take chances. Needs to have the last say in everything. They think they know everything and usually do. Respectful to others but you will quickly lose their respect if you do something untrustworthy towards them and never regain respect. They do not forgive and never forget. The one and only. 7 years of bad luck if you do not forward


Lats time I checked "always wants the last word" and "Needs to have the last say in everything", MEAN THE SAME THING!!!


"Respectful to others but you will quickly lose their respect if you do something untrustworthy towards them and never regain respect." Wow, Mr. Darcy must have been a virgo..."for my good opinion once lost, is lost forever."


LIBRA (The Lame One): Nice to everyone they meet. Their love is one of a kind. Silly, funny and sweet. Have own unique appeal. Most caring person you will ever meet! However, not the kind of person you want to mess with... you might end up crying. Libras can cause as much havoc as they can prevent. Faithful friends to the end. Can hold a grudge for years. Libras are someone you want on your side. Usually great at sports and are extreme sports fanatics. Very creative. A hopeless romantic. 9 years of bad luck if you do not forward.
 

The lame one...enough said.

I want to be a scorpio!!!


SAGITTARIUS (The Promiscuous One): Spontaneous. High appeal. Rare to find. Great when found. Loves being in long relationships. So much love to give. A loner most of the time.

The Bi-polar star sign.


CAPRICORN (The Passionate Lover): Love to bust. Nice. Sassy. Intelligent. Sexy. Grouchy at times and annoying to some.  Lazy and love to take it easy, but when they find a job or something they like to do they put their all into it. Proud, understanding and sweet. Irresistible. Loves being in long relationships. Great talker. Always gets what he or she wants. Cool. Loves to win against other signs in sports, especially Gemini's. Likes to cook but would rather go out
To eat at good restaurants. Extremely fun. Loves to joke. Smart. 24 years of bad luck if you do not forward.


Unlike the other 11 star signs Capricorns "love to bust", whatever that means??? They can be lazy, but when they find something they are passionate about they go all out. OCD!!!


AQUARIUS (Does It in the Water): Trustworthy. Attractive. Great kisser. One of a kind. Loves being in long-term relationships. Tries hard. Will take on any project. Proud of themselves in whatever they do. Messy and unorganized. Procrastinators. Great lovers, when they're not sleeping. Extreme thinkers. Loves their pets usually more than their family. Can be VERY irritating to others when they try to explain or tell a story. Unpredictable. Will exceed your expectations. Not a fighter, but will knock your lights out. 2 years of bad luck if you do not forward.


So next time your in the pool and you swim through a warm spot, blame it on the aquarians.  

"Can be VERY irritating to others when they try to explain or tell a story." So aquarians...must...be...the...people...that...talk...like...this. 


PISCES (The Partner for Life): Caring and kind. Smart. Likes to be the centre of attention. Very organized. High appeal to opposite sex. Likes to have the last word. Good to find, but hard to keep. Passionate, wonderful lovers. Fun to be around. Too trusting at times and gets hurt easily. VERY caring. They always try to do the right thing and sometimes get the short end of the stick. They sometimes get used by others and get hurt because of their trusting. Extremely weird but in a good way. Good sense of humour!!! Thoughtful. Loves to joke. Very popular. Silly, fun and sweet. Good friend to others but needs to be choosy on who they allow their friends to be. 5 years of bad luck if you do not forward. 

We are...I mean Pisceans are the awesom-est people in the entire world, they are kind, beautiful, smart, organized, attractive, popular, funny, and just perfect overall.

Anyways, that concludes my commentary on the stupidity of star signs...good-day!
