welcome to the neighbourhood .

our first house was on a dead-end street
and the neighbours were fantastic
a little nosey , but super friendly

our second house was on a main street
and the neighbours did not interact with each other
which did not matter either way

and now our current house ...
we've been here for about four months
and so far everyone seems quite friendly

interaction with first neighbour :
hello , we live across the street , welcome , we baked you some cookies

interaction with second neighbour :
hello , i live across the street , welcome , i baked you some cookies

interaction with third neighbour :

welcome

psycho !

 

anyway , happy four-twenty !

obey .

manipulation

is all around you
lies here , lies there
baaah baaah baaah

everything is irrelevant

sheeple apathy

the world wide web is a data grab
collects your thoughts , movements , heartbeats ...
to use against you in the future
since , of course , your behaviours now may create patterns
that perhaps will lead to potential terrorist actions
since skepticism is now treason
and bullshit fuels government (along with corporate greed)

 

right now , this moment , i am free
one day my words will be used against me
misconstrued , out of context
to assert power , to spread fear

misdirection propaganda

they are breeding hate
hate the other , hate yourself
take these pills
and go to hell

you are irrelevant
you are ice berg lettuce
so professional ...

 

so if it's all going to shit anyway , why are you still trying to conform ?
celebrate your uniqueness
embrace your divinity
be yourself
find your happiness

 

or just plug in and obey

what the fuck is ladylike anyway ?

saw a butcher last night .

please reshape my excessively long mohawk
keep the front the longest ( past my eyes )
keep a nice length for my tail
and shorten the middle the most
but please keep some of the length ...

she said ' okay , no problem '
she said she had cut lots of mohawks
she even said that she would trim a bit
and then if i wanted it shorter
she would go back afterwards to shorten and texturize

she might as well have buzzed the whole fucking thing off ...
oh wait , she pretty much did

and granted , yes , i did look like a my little pony
( the faded purple / magenta colour really added to it as well )
which is why i needed a trim and some shaping
but i specified , several times , that i want to keep the length
i like having a longer , shaggy mohawk ...

now i look like a fucking army dude

my wonderful grrrlfriend fixed it a bit
but there's not really much to work with
she bleached it out and re-dyed the purple
which helps , but like , where is my hair ?

what's more upsetting
is that it is bothering me

cuz i mean , it's bothering me that she butchered my beautiful hawk
but whatevs , it'll grow
so really , it bothers me that it's bothering me ...

laugh . out . loud .

if you are not familiar with the title
you may know it as : lol

now laughing out loud (for real / fo' shizz) is incredible
what's more
is that people and their newspeak often say lol
but this is inaccurate

you know who you are

you are probably just smiling
perhaps even letting out a little extra air that was in your mouth
but actually laughing , let alone , loudly which others can hear
no , i do not believe you

i do not believe you

but of course , it is irrelevant , you see
because as you type away with your newspeak
you can lol all you want
and no one would be the wiser

since this is generally used through computers / phones / machines ...
others are just reading about your laughing experience
and they just have to trust that you are telling the truth
when in reality , or some version of what you call reality
you are not laughing out loud , are you ?

no , you are not fucking laughing at all

 

curious , isn't it ?

no sugar .

how hard is it to make a cup of coffee ?
all i wanted this morning was a nice cup of hot coffee for my ride in traffic ...

i woke up a bit later than usual
i forgot to wash my travel mugs
and pre-program my coffee maker last night
but no worries , there's a tim hortons just around the corner ...

dude was that ever a stupid idea ...

so i find a couple of bucks
roll through the drive-thru at six am
and the anticipation builds

medium coffee with milk , please

now i took my first sip just after i got onto the highway

* gross *

ummm why is there sugar in my coffee ?

this is the third time this month drive-thru has screwed up my coffee
i know it must be very difficult to only add milk to the cup ...

come on !

and on drew barrymore's birthday ...
