You and I are most likely both
humans - which is to say that we both enjoy going to parties. Seriously,
everyone truly loves people, and it's no secret. Think about people who live
completely alone. Those humans in the woods (I'm looking at you Thoreau) with
nothing but their thoughts for companions. THINK ABOUT IT. Undoubtedly,
whatever you just thought of (if anything, despite a couple very forward
prompts) had something to do with confusion and sadness. Truly, there are those
of us which are oft found muttering "uh, people!" and other dreary
incantations, in an even MORE dreary attempt to assuage an even more,
EXTRA-dreary sense of pain. I concede that living amongst humans has some
serious down sides, but on the whole we don't usually kill humans, eat humans,
or defecate on humans. Animals cannot say the same thing. Clearly, this is what
separates "Us and Them" as Pink Floyd alluded to so many years back.
If you are utterly daft, or simply not reading carefully, I should let you know
that I am joking. Repeat, I do not think that the aforementioned traits are our
"special-ness."
So, what makes humans so perfectly
kick-ass?
I simply couldn't begin to locate
what makes humans so remarkable. In trying to allay this to you (my super-cool
blog reader) - I would start writing vast, amorphous sentences - YOU would
start thinking, "What is he talking about?" - and then I, in an
attempt to bring some concrete details to my writing would most likely start
writing about space. Yes. Truly, nothing is as collectively awesome and boring
as space.
So, what will I do?
I will bring together, along with my
comrades, a blog that really makes you feel good. That's not necessarily our
purpose, of course; but we are trying to be informative and cool, and super-hip
(writing a blog is naturally "hip" if you don't already know) It is
my ambitious goal; however, to create the following scenario: You will be
sitting behind your computer screen laughing so hard you will publicly defecate.
You will initially be appalled with yourself, feeling like an animal. You will
then remember my words on this beautiful life. Then finally, you will sling
feces at all the people around you, having more fun than you could ever
remember.
