I've done a few countdowns on this blog, but today i figured i'd step it up a notch. Mostly due to the fact that this might be my last blog. Ever. Period. So today I will say the top ten things in the WORLD. These aren't really in any specific order I suppose. Except probably the ones towards the bottom.
10. Video Games. I'll be honest, I am not really into video games, I play them occasionally but I get really really bored with all games easily. But it's still nice to have the option of controlling the person who kills everyone, rather then just watching it on the tv.
9. Cars. Not like super fast cars that cost millions of dollars and I'll never be able to afford, ever. But just the good old fashioned kind of car that just gets you from point A to point B. I'll be honest and say that I hate cars cause all they seem to do is break, but it is nice to have upgraded from having to walk my virgin wife through the desert to have a baby to just bein able to hop into my hoopty and take her to the hospital.
8. Computers. Basically along the same lines of how I feel about cars. They break alot, but it's nice to be in touch with the outside world. Whether its weather, sports, news, random things noone cares about, videos of a group of cheerleaders beating a girl, or other things, they can all be found on the Internet. These definately break alot, and it seems like you have to get a new computer every month in order to keep up with the Jones' but everytime my Internet goes out, I always realize how dependent I am on the dumb thing.
7. Ipods. I remember a time when only like 5 kids had one of these things, and all 5 of them were spoiled brats. Now it seems like everyone has them even though they have yet to drop the price to anything reasonable. It's nice to be able to put your whole cd collection onto one small portable machine and listen to it. Or if you're willing to go all the way, you can put your whole cd collection, your life history, you're entire computer's hardrive, your cat, a couple more songs, and your baby pictures on the thing. Personally I'm waiting for the 1 Terabyte Ipod before I consider upgrading.
6. Family. I apologize for the lack of comedic twang on this one, but I'll go ahead and say it is a pretty good one. It should probably be number one, but let's be honest, it just wouldn't be me to put a serious one for number one. Deal with it.
5. TV. Alot of people say they don't watch much TV. I think I probably do. It's not really because I have a lack of other things to do. It just seems like the only real option whenever I just get home from school and I'm the only one there and plans for the rest of the night have yet to be made. I think I like TV shows better than movies. My tiny attention span seems to appreciate when the thing I'm watching at most goes an hour rather than like 9 in an uncomfortable chair with drunk women next to me.
4. Africa. This is definately my favorite continent. It's got sweet stuff like all the exotic animals, and monkeys. Apparently the locals hate monkeys and they are extremely obnoxious but since I'm just an ignorant American teenager, I'll feel free to go on liking whatever I want to like. Seems a bit unfair that a country full of sweet landscape, and jungles, and sweet animals has to be getting the shaft like that. But what can a young boy do I suppose other than write a blog for a school project and hope that one of my million fans sees this and takes action. Save the place people.
3. Sticking it to the man. Being a rebel with a cause. Can't say I approve of rebels without causes because thats obviously pointless and if they don't have a cause, thats usually because they are only rebelling for attention. Be a hippie, belive in something that doesn't hurt anyone, fight for it. Trust me, I'm deep.
2. Chipotle. Probably not the most authentic mexican food due to the fact that it's owned by McDonalds, but hey, fake things seem to do the trick for me. Lots of food, for lots of money. People complain about gas prices being so high because it's a necessity and they have to buy it and it's so expensive. Well Chipotle is a necessity and I have to buy it. I'm going to start complaining that they need to lower the cost of rice per barrel, and tortilla shells. Drop the prices big business, quit keeping the hungry man down!
1. Opposable thumbs. Let's all be honest, putting me forcing my relgious beliefs on you aside, this is probably God's best idea. Without them I wouldn't be able to play video games, getting on the computer would be harder (not impossible but definately harder). Eating Chipotle would make me look like an animal and how am I going to attract a mate of the female species with my face dug into a burrito bowl with sour cream all over it. We definately wouldn't be able to use Ipods. This one might actually help out Africa because it would be harder to wage war with guns n' such without opposable thumbs. However if we didn't have them, the monkeys would be superior, and might take over Government and enslave us all. Plus sticking it to the man would be harder, it is definately harder to paint a sweet down with Government sign if I don't got the thumbs.
Well thats it. If the teacher continues this biggotry she calls a project and makes me do another one, then I shall. If she is gracious and lets it die since school is almost out then I won't. If I don't see you, Good Morning, Good Afternoon, and Good Night.
