The key to blogging like a successful new media e-begger
So apparently the key to blogging is not to write about what you know, but to write about what you don’t know… specifically, what you’re learning. It seems I still have something to learn about blogging, so I thought I’d share that little gem with all of you. It seems I’m simply too shortsighted and self centered to realize that what I’m currently involved in learning about the universe may indeed be of use to someone else as well. ZOMG I’M SELF DEPRECATING… OH SHI… I WENT THERE :O … how uncouth and zomgemo of me.
Seriously though, I’m sick and tired of trying to figure out WHAT to say for fear that I’ve got nothing of interest to say. Of late, I’ve been trying to figure out HOW the new media people do what they do, all the while attracting an audience, and I think I’ve settled on one fact: They just do shit. They do shit, and people take notice if they’re interested. So fuck it… I’m gonna stop worrying and just do shit.

The more I write, the funnier I’ll become, and the better I’ll be able to make lame jokes about mudkips and Chuck Norris. By the way, Chuck called and he wants his life back. He told me to tell all of you that he’s not some sort of omnipotent martial arts superman, and all the positive press he’s getting is really cramping his style because he’s having a hard time living up to his fan-constructed public persona.
In other news, I’m going to be lurking tvtropes.com for lulz fodder in hopes of actually doing some sketch comedy for the intarwebbernets. If anyone has any ideas for things that may be funny, please let me know, because I’m completely stumped as to how to make people laugh. I even went so far this morning as to consider doing a sketch about Thunder Bay tourists eating cats because of an extreme semantical misunderstanding. I then came to my senses and realized that Persians are quite expensive and too ugly to eat.
