some nuggets of irrelevancyy.

The internet makes me feel small. It makes everything seem...almost irrelevant.

You know, you type something into a search and 19 901 011
related things pop up. It's like by making the world smaller through the wonders of the internet, by making anything around the world available to anyone with a computer, we've been opened to the full scope of the world.

And it's big. Try being unique in a world like this.

I typed my name - my real name - into Google the other day, and to my surprise, the real me was on the first page of results. But along with that were hundreds of people who'd done hundreds of different things of note with my name.

So in one way that's really quite cool. But in another way, it's scary.

Globalization is totaly fucking with my psychy.

But, thankfully there is this dude you may have heard of named Dr. Seuss, and he says

Today You are You,
That is truer than True.
There is no one alive who is
Youer than You.

So ya. The thing is, there are about 10 billion other quotes just like that about "uniqueness" by a bunch of random people. So, I don't know how much stock you can put in such things.

That's pretty much all I've got. I'm still bored out of my head, explaining why I am Googling random shit all the time recently.


Think.
