Though, I'd prefer to play with Matt, Tyler's availability is much better than his. So we've been playing with Tyler a lot. Also because he's called us inquiring about jamming.

As most of you know, most of my devs (all from a couple years ago) consist of song lyrics. Reason for it mostly because I just wrote a few songs out of boredom.

Mind you, I still really like most of the lyrics I wrote. The only problem was I had no one to play with. Well, let me rephrase that:

A. I had no drummer.
B. I couldn't really get a consistent schedule with the only bassist I knew.

Even when I got a decent schedule with Matt, the loss of a drummer made us feel like we were just wasting time. We tried Dylan at the drums, but I guess he just didn't have the confidence for it. In addition to that, Spencer just plain wasn't mature enough to just sit down and play the drums. I'm in no way taking a shot at him, since I wasn't playing guitar when I was that age either.

Anyway, Spencer finally starts sitting down and playing the drums (at damn near the same age I started guitar, go figure), so I had Matt over and tried for another round. It worked quite well. Then, I forget how it started, but Tyler starts jamming with us.

He's nowhere as good as Matt. In fact, Matt's better than him in every category except availability. However, we managed to do a few songs. Once again, Tyler started one of his incessant pleas. "We need to write our own song. We should write our own song. Lets do a metal song with power chords like Metallica." Yeah, that would be original.

Honestly, it should come as a surprise to noone he wants to do metal. But still, that is NOT the angle I want. The angle we had with Matt was perfect. 90's alternative, grunge, pop type stuff.

So, the only lyrics I decide to take are the scraps. Ain't that funny?

Anyway, if you read the lyrics in those scraps they aren't hard to figure out. It's about a kid who is taunted and teased too much in school. And finally loses it. Call it emo, I don't care.

For those of you who don't know, I have a HEAVY interest in school shootings. Not totally sure why. But this song is perfect for me in that respect.

I'm torn between three names. Barry, from the first kid to shoot up his school, Deric, combination of the names of the columbine kids, or ymerej, the backwards name of the song Pearl Jam did about the exact same topic who's video was banned.

We had this group project. The topic was diversity. She was in my group. Groups are in 5's or 6's. We were supposed to draw a school with students around them. Each group got one color of crayon. Except one, who got 24 different colors. I'm sure you see where this is goin'.

So we're drawing this thing. One of the girls in the groups begins the outline. Next thing we know, Indian girl was telling her how to do everything and being extremely bossy. I neglected to mention that before we started this project, the teacher said it was worth 0 points. Just a nice activity. Anyway, we all have to contribute somehow, and I was last. I wasn't really paying all that much attention to the picture or what they were doing, since it felt like someone was gonna get cussed out soon. When it was my turn, I was presented with a picture of a school with some windows, doors, blah blah. One thing I noticed though: there were kids in the school, and there were kids outside the school playing. Everything else looked like a school, but I felt we should give why there are so many kids outside.

Me: Well, why are so many kids outside? Are they at lunch or pe? I think if they're at lunch, there should be a-

I was about to say "clock to show that it's lunchtime." But she decided to interrupt...

Bitch: You know, not EVERYBODY has P.E. in their school! They don't have to be at P.E!

That might have been an ok assumption if I had assumed that they were at pe, but I said I thought they were at lunch.

Nonetheless, all the girls found it funny that she snapped at me. They all laughed. I was so mad. When I tried to calmly explain myself, I stopped. Because I know they would say "Relax, it's just a project!" It seems I always get caught in these traps. Someone is a fucking moron, and somehow I'm the one who's told to calm down. I CANNOT FUCKING STAND THAT.

FUCK GROUP PROJECTS

If that project was worth 1 point, I would have said "Excuse me, please don't fucking put words in my mouth" and started the argument. I'm still extremely pissed off about the whole situation.

The other key thing is she immediately started talking to them again before I could say anything back. I took one second to look at the girl on the opposite side who was sitting next to me. She shrugged. That made me feel better. At least someone else heard me correctly.

If you do not let someone try to explain themselves or give their side of the argument, no matter who you are, I am a better person than you. Period. If you don't let someone say their part, you are a fucking asshole and need to learn some goddamn manners!

Interrupting another person's argument is a sign of fear of being wrong, inability to communicate with another person, and overall inferiority to the other person.

It's sad when you think about it. Most people just don't know how to settle a disagreement. You would think online, with the inability to interrupt, things would be better. Nope, we stepped up there and invented something called flaming.

If you watch Jerry Springer, you'll see another example. When two people are arguing, they want to win of course. Then one of them comes up with an extremely good point. Notice how many times that person repeats that very good point. Perhaps if you would have thought it up without going on a blind rage idiocy run, you could have made him/her look like a fool on stage. Instead, you didn't think, and made a good idea screaming idiot of yourself.

Why is it that no one can seem to just figure out their arguments through a cognitive process? Why must we always prove we're right? Who cares if you're wrong? It's gonna happen. Most people can't do it. They literally have to resort to things like quitting the argument or saying "whatever". And I don't care who you are, if you started the argument, you damn well better not end it with "whatever".

What makes this pride issue such a big deal to the human mind? I guess people are insecure...

We knew the court was icy, and were precautionary.

But at one point, I knocked the ball out of Spencer's hand, and raced after it. As you probably already guessed, I slammed on the ice.

However, this caused extreme pain in my shoulderblade. Oh sure, I could fight the pain today, but the next morning will be quite different.

Anyway, when I hit the ground, the amount of pain in my knee was unbelievable! All I could do was moan on the ground for 5 minutes. If I were to try to get up, HAH! I'd be right back down.

My injury is not the important part. After all, I swear I get hurt 3 times a game. For some reason it seems I'm always the victim of a stray elbow.

Anyway, like I said, that is not important. What is important is the fact that after I fell, and was writing in pain, everyone laughed. This came as no surprise since Tyler was there. BUT, one person wasn't laughing. In fact, he even stopped playing.

Dylan walked right up to me and offered to help me up. Obviously, that wouldn't serve any real purpose other than me going back down, but...what he did will not soon be forgotten.

Well, no...sometimes big disappointments can make for a long day.

Oh, so now you'll just be leaving early and bitching all the time about how you've had SUCH a disappointing day, and never get anything done, right? Answer again!

Ok, well...I guess I'm pretty good at letting things go.

What are you, fucking bipolar?!? You go from sad to happy in an instant? Every time a customer talks to you, they're basically on a ticking time bomb until your happiness explodes in to a homicidal maniac wielding a cash register?!? get the fuck out!

You like to talk a lot?

Not really...usually I don't really have a lot to say.

Oh, so you're gonna be just blocking all of us out, never saying a word, and scaring all the customers away with your silence? Answer again!

Okay...well I guess if I'm in the mood, I can get into a pretty big conversation.

OH, BLAH BLAH BLAH I NEVER STOP TALKING! That's great! A customer can just talk it up with you and then his friend grabs the new 42 inch plasma, right, nancyboy?!? Geth the fuck out!

You give up on some things you start?

Well, yeah...if the goal seems unrealistic, I'm not gonna work on something for no reason.

Oh, ok, then you're just gonna give up on the job we give you, if you don't like it, right? Who cares?!? I'll do what I want! I'm better than everybody!Selfish bastard! Answer again!

Ok, well...I don't give up when you want me to get the job done. I make sure it's complete.

Wow, so I guess you're still trying to figure out who killed JFK, right?!? Who cares about life? I have to make sure everything looks right to me! Selfish bastard! Get the fuck out!

You work at a slow and steady speed...

Sure, I like to take my time.

Oh, so you're all SLOW and shit?!? Gonna run behind everyone until the line reaches to outside the building and someone freezes to death and we get sued, ALL BECAUSE OF HOW SLOW YOU ARE?

Well, I can work at a good fast pace then!

WHOA WHOA SPEEDY GONZALEZ! SLOW THE FUCK DOWN! Your just gonna go all fast and skip important things until you forget to write down someone bought the most expensive camera in the store, and boom! We're missing 7 thousand dollars!! Get the fuck out!

Many people cannot be trusted.

I can see that. There's a lot of shady people out there.

Then how are you gonna be in a business retard? "Oh, I don't wanna give you the register! I don't trust you! Your my manager's evil twin!

Uhh...yeah...well I'm gonna trust people like my co-workers at least.

Oh, so your just gonna let little Susie run around with the power tools until she drills through the fool-proof safe, right?

Wait, why would Susie know where a hidden safe is if she's too young to handle-

Get the fuck out.

Hey, gayass job applications! How bout a "both" for christ's sake?!?

It was me, Spencer, Matt, Tyler, and Mike Martzahn.

Tyler was a living nightmare. He seems really cool at first. But it seemed as the night went on Tyler would need us to do what he wanted to do more and more. For example, we went to Borders after bowling (which was pretty fun) and we all split up.

Spencer and Tyler went straight to the anime. Matt stayed there for about 20 seconds and then began walking. Well, I had been to the anime very recently, I figured I'd follow good ol' Matt. He seemed to know exactly where he was going, so I was very intrigued.

Turns out either he didn't know where he was going as well as I thought, or didn't want me to follow him. Whichever, I knew they both would result in me going somewhere else. So I headed over to the magz and grabbed a Maxim(what? Avril Lavigne was on the cover!). By the time I had just finished the magazine, they had just returned. Now, I had found a great xkcd-like joke about snails earlier while reading the magazine, but now I couldn't find it. I told them to hold on so I could find the joke.

Whilst I was sifting through the pages, Spencer picked up a Computer magazine, and he and Matt went to town on it. Meanwhile, Tyler was reading a book that he bought. I didn't take the time to see what it was. I was too into finding that damn joke. How the hell did it just disappear?!? Tyler was constantly bitching about leaving as I was looking for the joke. If I was gonna leave without finding that joke, then I was convinced that I never saw the joke!...even if I knew what the pcitures looked like...After Tyler's 7th whine, I figured out quite quickly that no matter what joke I said, Tyler would say it sucks and bitch about us leaving. I didn't care. I knew Spencer and Matt would love it.

After about the 6th sifting, I came by the joke. (Matt, if you remember the joke, tell it to me in the comments. I can't remember it) So, I read it, and Matt and Spencer found it quite funny. I knew they would!

"Okay, that sucked. Can we go now?" So we headed for the door. Then I turn to see Tyler standing in line. At the register. What? HE NEVER BOUGHT THE BOOK!

So now I'm pissed. All he did was bitch and then hurt my feelings after I took all the time just to make my friends laugh. I cussed him out in the middle of the Borders. He could have easily bought that damn book instead of bitching at me. What the fuck was his problem?

A. He WANTED to diss me about whatever I was doing and WANTED to bitch.

B. He totally forgot to buy the book, and was too embarrassed to admit it.

C. (and I hope this is it) He was unsure about the book, then read through it to analyze whether it was worth a buy.

However, there's three flaws with that third ideal.

1. If he was analyzing the book while I was looking for the joke, why did he bitch while performing the analysis? Possibly a combination of A and C?

2. I'm almost positive it was a DeathNote book. He would not question buying that.

3. If this is the case, he could have just as easily told me. It would have shown he was being legit.

I dunno. Maybe he wanted to hear the joke, but was NOT going to admit that. Hell no!

Moving on...

Kevin has accused me of acting this way. I'm sure I probably was. But I'm not going to insult something that my friend worked hard on to make me laugh. I'll admit I might be bitchy, but at least I'll know it if I'm doing it now.

I've had this picky attitude a while now. I have no idea why. I do know it's most effective when trying to eat. When I'm hungry my mind will refuse perfectly good ideas for food for absolutely no reason. It's extremely annoying.

It has Bleach, Death Note, Naruto, case closed(yuck), blood+, Fullmetal alchemist, Eureka Seven, One Piece, and wolf's rain.

Not only that, but this site (a freeweb, no less) gives every show a nice smooth quality. No choppy frames here. And no breaks for ads, either. It's like youtube, but 22 minutes straight through, with a beautiful picture.

The only downside right now is Naruto. The Naruto page reroutes to a myspace video page that looks as gawdawful as youtube. That seems pretty pointless. Alas, I guess I'll have to continue my search for naruto in good quality...

And if you're complaining its dubs and not subs, go fuck yourself, because thats irrelevant. I don't feel like reading a tv show.

And yes I know it's just a port from veoh, but veoh pisses me off. Too many broken links, ads, and incorrect title bullshit.

Aside from that, whadya think?


p.s. The Mood is because Grammee died.

I just have nothing to write. I miss dps...haven't felt the same about da since dps ended.

Also, I've had all sorts of problems getting onto a computer. It's gotten quite infuriating.

I miss being an idiot and using countless times. AIM is nowhere near as fun.

Then again, most chatrooms here have pretty immature people. It's like I went right back to school, and I'm dealing with a bunch of idiots again.

My guitar hero 2 is broken...thats infuriating too.

To be honest, I'm at school right now. I've gotten a lot better at guitar but not at writing music.

I've formed a band with my friends, but things just aren't seeming to click. I'm having problems with every member (including myself) except matt.

So um leave some comments if you guys know a good place to hang.

oh, and do you guys like the game, "okami"?

That's all I have to say. I've missed some people here. not a lot, but a few.

Today I woke up and had pizza for breakfast, then called kevin, who was going job huntin with me that afternoon. He ended up tellin me he couldn't today, so I called Dylan, both at his house and on his cell (thanks for the #, colin) to no response. I thought awhile, and came up with a plan B for today. So I went out and bought nba street 3 and a ps2 multitap so I can have more than 2 players with that exact game, and picked up By The Way from the library on my way home. I had forgotten that my license is gone, and my bro wound up tellin dad that I took the car into town, to which he exploded. I told him I went only to the library and threw my just-bought stuff in my closet right before he came into my room. We had a talk, I fixed the van up a bit, and went to kevin's. After that, I came home and slowly taught myself the entire under the bridge song by the peppers, and watched my bro play tony hawk for a while (he's really good!) Then I came on here, talked on some chat rooms at da, and then posted this.

There ya have it. A day in the life of me. A good reason why I dont post everyday

I'll be doin this from now on...top 5 current songs

4. Kingdom Hearts I - Traverse Town

3. Godsmack - Speak

2. Red Hot Chili Peppers - Stadium Arcadium (the actual song, yes)

I feel a lot better today…

First I went out and grabbed a ps2 mem card for 5 bucks! ^_^

Then I checked boondocks season 1 dvd…out 6/13, 3 DISCS, 50 BUCKS! Well, 42 down at best buy…

I was also pleasantly surprised at the fact that I actually had comments for my latest post. Thx, pplz

I went to borders and stole a cd, but hear me out on this:
I am subscribed to guitar world mag
They give tabs, along with the usual guitar articles on whats hot
However, If you buy their newsstand mag, you get a lil demo cd, with how-to stuff, among other things
Well, this one happened to be over John Frusciante, ultra guitarist for the Red hot chili peppers. And the song was, you guessed it, under the bridge.
I said to myself, “I paid for this mag, I’m willing to risk this, because I feel like I got screwed” and took it.
I feel no regret, and the cd is absolutely fantastic with a slowed-down version of utb, plus john just freestyling…its fantastic.

I've written three new songs since displaying the first three (discluding scraps, which are all part of one song which is unfinished), but they are tasteless. They have the look that I just threw them together carelessly. It sucks not being able to have a band, but none of the people in my school (that I could stand being around) want to. It sucks being alone in trying to write out material.

I have some decent riffs here or there that are still unused, but I can't find the correct lyrics, they all just die down, they fade away, or just plain suck. As you can see from the mood, I've given up on writing for a while. Perhaps I just need a vacation or something... ]]> ~Meatwadisgod http://Meatwadisgod.deviantart.com/journal/8758473/ http://Meatwadisgod.deviantart.com/journal/8758473/ Sat, 13 May 2006 11:25:34 PDT
