Does not Apply

I'm not sure why the thought occurred to me on this beautiful day that I should really spend some more time on the internets, but it did. And so back home I went, avoiding eye contact, actually going so far as to sneak in through the back entrance to avoid the guy in my building trying to sell me free newspapers, and convince me that I am, in fact, interested in numerology. I was hoping to get back into doing some writing on the side. I.E. writing not for fun, but for purposes of personality dispersion. There was a time when I was actively seeking out work of that nature, but fell out of step largely on account of boredom/ hatred. After nearly an hour of parsing through freelance blogging jobs/ pyramid schemes, I've realized that I'm more angry now than I ever intended on being this fine Sunday morning in July. I've noticed a bizarre and unsettling trend, and I'm sure I'm not the first, and I'm sure this is something that has been going on for some time, so, no surprise, I'm late to the party, but it seems that nearly the whole of the "Web 2.0" haze has haphazardly applied the distributed, user created content model to the entirety of the web. Everything has now become a stopgap for dirty pissy Advert money. The content, it is assumed, is irrelevant. There will be enough drooling idea less self-serving sacks to have something to say over and over again about everything, and enough commissioned human drones to post links and comments all the fuck over whatever it may be. We have phased out both the authors and the users of content. The dog has caught it's tail and is now passing it back out through it's own asshole. We are generating content against our will, reading content against our will, and circulating farcical dollars and ideas back and fourth between soulless anti-bodies. We have effectively automated humanity, but haven't sunk to the liberating point of self deception where we just allow an array of pay-per-click ads to be perpetually clicked continuously into infinity, feeding, clothing, and educating the entirety of the world's human population. No, we still need to BELIEVE that this is a world and an industry of choice! Where content is context, hang the fact that there are a BILLION online movie review sites, and that this ONE which has no human thread connecting it to a single sentence in all it's myriad and pointless pages has nothing at all to say. Just keep talking or the money may dry up folks! And just keep commenting. I'm sorry I deleted all those comment ads on my site for some Brazilian custom T-Shirt site. That undoubtedly cost someone their job. How dare I interfere with their right to profit! We are now required by law to wear branded T-Shirts at all times. Sorry world. I used to love reading you. At least it's still sunny outside. ...Oh yeah, it's sunny outside. Adios suckers!
