Thinking about Dr. Rockzo, the Rock 'n Roll Clown. K-K-K-K YEAHHH.

I miss watching Metalocalypse.

My history class this morning was canceled, which means I don't have class until 3:30. Yay! I have a test though, so I should probably study.

I'm pretty sure I have bronchitis, just like last year. I don't know if it was pure chance I got it again or what, but it's annoying. I hope I don't start getting yearly bouts of it. This year wasn't as bad as last year, at least. Last year I had to miss a day of school because I just felt so awful. I think it lasted longer as well, maybe two weeks or more? Doctor was wondering if I had mono...

I keep reflecting on the ways my boyfriend treats me... I have this one finger that always (I think) looks kinda messed up because my skin is sensitive to soap/water and it dries out and can sometimes crack or itch a lot, and I usually hide it or have a bandaid on it, but if he sees me hiding it he'll hold my hand and tell me it looks fine and I shouldn't be so worried about it. He also just gives me a lot of compliments in general. I still don't have top notch self esteem, but he's helping it a lot.

Snorgtees advertisements really annoy me. If you haven't seen them, they take a sort-of-attractive-in-a-realistic-way girl and put a shirt on her, then have her pose in... I don't know, maybe what's supposed to be a sexy position? The shirts are always, always, really lame and not clever in the slightest. They're just reworkings of overused memes (zombies, for instance, or bacon) or "snarky attitude" sayings.

There are some memes I hate because they become so mainstream and overdone that it starts to feel like an inside joke that a million people tried to get in on without understanding the context. I'm not saying I have any special right to keep memes small or anything, but I feel like there's a point where it just gets to be too much. I get that people enjoy bacon, and that's fine for them, but it's going a bit overboard to make a whole subculture out of it.

I dunno. To me it feels like there was a small group of probably more-on-the-interesting-side people who were like "yeah, bacon tastes good!" and started the whole "bacon is awesome movement," then as it got bigger, less interesting and outright boring people who just wanted to be in on something came along and started pushing out stuff like "Either you like bacon or YOU'RE WRONG."

This probably makes me sound like a bad person in some way or another. I wish people would just create their own content instead of constantly recycling stuff. It's rare to see a meme done very well, although there are a fair number of okay ones.

Metalocalypse is the best, man I miss that show. And Edward used to have the first season on DVD but then he sold it, whyyyyy?

Your boyfriend sounds lovely.

I concur on a lot of this entry... except snorg tee girls are always fucktastically attractive.

The meme shit is definitely onpoint.. I reckon for me, the problem with snorg tees is similar to my problem with the show portlandia: the jokes are often overdone that they're overstated and er go not funny anymore. Nuanced satire is great in and of itself but when you hit me over the head with something that is supposed to be nuanced it's anything but

I WASN'T FINISHED WITH THAT ENTRY ><


But yeah, I suppose I do. I never realized it til this summer though.

Hate Snorg tees. Especially because someone comes up with these jokes, and it makes me uncomfortable that, somewhere, out there, someone said it first and isn't getting any money for all the shirt sales.

I know how you feel.. That is how I feel when something I like gets famous and people starts talking about it and I roll my eyes and say in my head "it is not supposed to be that way!"

There are still quite some people I know who has no idea what memes are.. or 9gag.. who gives me statements like "I don't do or keep in touch with all those English things"
