Bloggers Striking? Worry Not

Bloggers StrikeI have a nasty headache and I can barely see out of my left eye for some reason. I probably have some horrible brain injury … no, no I rubbed the sleep out of my eye, I’m ok now.

I heard somewhere this morning as I was falling crawling out of bed that bloggers are now starting to strike to show solidarity to the Hollywood writers. Why, I don’t know, and I have yet to see one of those blogs. I’m not sure I get the connection between someone blogging on their computer and someone in Hollywood writing sitcoms. I guess because we write words we’re all the same. Doesn’t that give school students an excuse to strike then? You want me to write a report on mitochondria? F*** you Mrs Wipple, I’m on strike. How about the secretaries? Where will it all end?

Fear not, because I promise all of you U Suxxors will not be striking anytime soon. Not while I’m earning just enough money a day for a cup of noodles. A man’s gotta eat. Besides, while I’m quite annoyed that every episode of Prison Break seems to end with everyone back at square one lately, last night was the final show until January 17 or some date around there. Screw the writers, even though their reasons are valid. You don’t show me a preview where Bellick’s in a fight to the death and then tell me I have to wait until January 17th to find out what’s going on. I’m pretty much forced to turn to the internet for entertainment now due to this picketing bullshit because as much as I like Kitchen Nightmares and Family Guy, they’re not going to completely fill the void. I’m a human, I need entertainment. Hell, this is the part where bloggers should step up and help fill that void. Give people something to do, something to read. Reading’s FUNdamental right? I know that, and I’m not even one of those blogs that’ll tell you how to make tons of cash with a blog even though the only blog they’re running is one that tells you how to make tons of cash with a blog. Seriously, how many of those do we need at this point guys? Can’t we write about baseball card collections or something? Or tiddlywinks? There’s a project, someone do a tiddlywinks blog. I’ve always wanted to know what tiddlywinks actually are. Help me learn.

I’ve already started seeking new avenues of entertainment. As you can see I’ve started exploring more of my creative side, meaning I actually got around to doing a new header and even a side scroll bar. In time I’ll create some more and put them on a random loop or something to add some variety. This place needed some color. I’ll let you figure out who everyone is, though I will tell you that everyone that appears on the headers or sidebars is a celebrity or some person that has been discussed on this blog at one point or another. Good luck, you’ll need it.
