Internet Done Burned Me Again

thumbnail icon: Internet Done Burned Me Again

You guys, this is one of those weeks. Woof. Maybe it's just me, but the Lawnmower Man feels painfully slow. Hello? IS MCFLY AT HOME HELLO? Personally, I don't like when blogs get too self-knowing and talk about the art of blogcraft or whatever. That is how SKNYETS get created. And next thing you know. So I am sorry about this. But it has gotten dire out there.

So I made the executive decision to end the day with a nice little video. You know, noting too crazy. Just something that said "Let's paint, exercise, and have a great rest of the week." I can have fun, too, you guys. It's not all Grouch Town: Population Me. So, I went to YouTube and I tried to find a fun new dance video. Who doesn't like dancing? I figured someone must have uploaded a fun dance video within the past 24 hours, and we could all just enjoy that and head out into the summer night air, filled with the rush of hope and good times.

This is the best I could find:

Ugh. I guess that'll do, Internet. That'll do?

I'm not sure hoping it's not their mother is really making this situation any less creepy. It just means they're watching a woman who's not their mother doing a booty dance in short shorts. Still: ramifications.

Now hold on there Gabe. Parenting is hard! And those kids just don't teach themselves how to dance.

What's the problem, guys? She showed much decency and modesty by not allowing her face to be shown. What more do you monsters want? For her to blur the KID'S face or something? JEEZ.

So I guess this is a casting video for Eat, Love Pray?

But yes, rest is always good and needed Gabe. Good for you for not trying to force it.

It's okay, Gabe! I hate to sound militaristic, but soldier on! You can do it! Push it to the limit! Et cetera, et cetera...


I have noticed an unusually high reoccurance of certain memes. The painting, exercising, something joke has been made almost every day, I think. Cycle those jokes, maybe? What about the Whoops Ocean? We haven't sailed the Whoops Ocean is a long time. I miss it.

Gabe is human, you know, and being the sole provider of content for this site is going to take some getting used to. Patience, people.


Personally, I prefer the Grouch Town angle. After all, Everything Is Terrible.
