101 reasons not to have an iPhone

I know that the iPhone has been out in Australia for a little while, and it's got an aurora-esque hype built around it simply because it's an Apple product. Well, I looove Apple computers and such because they kick ass compared to PCs (mainly in the won't-kamikaze-for-no-reason category) but bringing out this new, pointless phone crosses the line into "unneccesary product excitement".

Have you noticed how caveman the iPhone is in comparison to other recent phones? The iPhone is advertised as being an iPod, a phone, and an internet communications device, ALL IN ONE. That's right, an internet communications device. Not only is that a fancy way of saying "it has GPRS, just like every other mobile", but it plugs it as an iPod too - a word that doesn't even exist. There's no such thing as an iPod! It's just an mp3 player that happens to have the marketed Apple logo branded on the back of it like cattle in a barnyard! There is no justification as to why the iPod excels over other mp3 players. So what, it stores songs. It doesn't even store the most amount of songs from any mp3 player (you know, like a memory-card-changeable mp3?). When you get an iPod or an iPhone, your allotted usage is fixed for life.

Still on the basis of the iPhone not doing things pretty much every other phone can, the iPhone can't perform the simplest task but covers up for it by acquiring something else. For example, the iPhone can't send MMS messages, but never fear! It still has a touch screen (oh great, some smudgy piece of thumbprint town)! I don't get the hype about touch screens. It's just gonna get destroyed within a day anyway.

Here's another list of things the iPhone continues to fail in: smaller resolution than other phones; can't record video; can't customize ringtones; no third-party applications allowed; can't voice dial; can't record audio; can't instant message; and it can't even be recharged when the battery completely dies, instead, Apple gets to take care of that for you by you sending your iPhone to them for fixing. How useless.

To top it off, you get all these arbitrary, highly common functions in a compacted Apple product for 5 times the price of a phone that could do all this itself. I bet if the iPhone was human, it'd be pompous and pretentious.

Don't get an iPhone. I know I won't.

A MySpace Cynic

WELL. I feel quite cynical today, so I suppose I will vent.

First of all, Eliza., that dicktease stuff? It's redundant. Yehh. :D it sickens me.

And to all you idiots with like a million messages in your msn name: you're an idiot, nobody loves you that much.

Sara. Stop thinking I purposely take other people's sides just to resent you. Maybe my opinion is that you're wrong? Like when *that guy* says he has plans or whatever, and you think he's ignoring you? No, that's redundant also.

AND TO YOU PEOPLE WHO DRINK. AGH. You're slowly taking away your blood cells until you're 45 and you'll be completely braindead and on life support. Who'll be laughing then? That's right. John will. I win.

Oh and the hardcores in Frankston who smoke there after school? What the hell are you even doing in Frankston after school anyway? It's one step away from vacationing to hell after you just exited it at like 3pm. You're not hardcore or original, hell, you're not even worthy of a conversation. You're an idiot.

And I hate MSN more than anything in the world, except MySpace. It's oh so impersnal, you cannot show tone of your voice through typing or anything that would occur during a good old fashioned conversation face-to-face. I cannot name the many times MSN has gotten me into trouble because of someone taking what I've said the wrong way. It's happened to me like 3 times this week.

MySpace itself is a whole other story. You know how like no one sends messages to each other really unless it's a conversation? That's what a bulletin is, but it goes out to everyone. So stop posting your dumbshit bulletins trying to get someone to pay attention to you, because nobody likes or respects you for it. How about you go outside and meet someone new? Nothing as refreshing as a new relationship.

OHOH. Morons who like to rebel. Take a step back, literally, and look at the portrait of your life. Why do you like to do the opposite of what an authority figure says? What makes you so damn special you must disagree with anything? Nobody thinks you're witty/clever/smart in the slightest. All you are is a tool.

Like you Valerie. I despise you. I hope you perish. That's all I really have to say.

Sure songs are awesome, and although the music may be cool, lyrics are a whole other story. lyrics are supposed to mean something. Except for Weird Al songs, but I mean come on. Posting stupid lyrics from an irrelevant song in your myspace or msn or somewhere... there's a word for that. Probably. But the point is it's completely pointless to do, and you don't respect the music you listen to if you just casually pass it up like that.

Last thing, unless I write a bit more. Especially with Baysiders, being a Christian school and all, you people who assume they are immediately religious because they go to youth group are HUGELY MISTAKEN. Religion isn't a fad you maroons, it's a life-long commitment. ou can call yourself a Christian, but unless you act upon it, all you are is a label.

Anyway to end this rant, I'd just like to hope that you took something away from it, and maybe, delete your myspace?
I would, but I have precious blogs on here. they are my children. memories!

Rant

For starters, happy buh'day Em for yesterday! XD
And also, I started a new website 3 days ago: Cyber Rant. http://www.cyberrant.cjb.net. It's awesome, as I rant about things that annoy me. One of them which rocks is about the Crazy Frog, that bastard. Here's a little photo I made in photoshop for it:

Hooray, I would love for that to happen. Visit my site, or I stab.

Gee, that wasn't very good, was it?

I hate Materialism.

Oh wow, so you've decided to go shopping at least twice a week. Okay, shove it. People are so bent on things like materialism and being older than they actually are, it's spread the world apart.
All the younger teenagers who MUST spend at least $50 a week, MUST have at least 5 boyfriend/girlfriends each year, and MUST be just like everyone else. Well screw it. Have you seen those kind of people, and letting things like this run their lives is making so many of their problems BIGGER. If you're someone who doesn't care for shopping or crappy television and doesn't want to be found as an object, then chances are you probably don't have much conflit in your life.
BUT LOOK AT THEM.
Oh no! I cry over every insignificant thing I encounter! How will I ever grow up to lead a successful life?
You can see the people who are doing well in life and school, then look at the people I describe. Just picture them in 15 years: What will their career be? Will they be rich? Will they end up in a marriage? Will the shoot themselves because life is going far down the tubes?
Well look at each person you encounter, I dare you, and think of these questions. You can see who will live a more successful life.

Problems With Today's Generation (Mine)

Here's my rant for you all, problems with society today.

I don't even know where to begin.. Ah yes. Just because you managed to push someone over doesn't mean you're the king. You're a 12 year old with a mental disease, go scare someone. I hate the kind of person that believes they CAN and WILL be the greatest at everything because they need attention. If you need attnetion, run around naked. Nobody cares for your selfishness.

There's even that kind of person that takes any petty slight about themselves and turns it into something to show off about and coast on till you can think of something new to brag about that night. That's the exact kind of idiot who should be locked up somewhere away from the decent people of the world. "GUESS WHAT?! I found a new pube growing! Wow, I'm so much better than you." Fool!

Now for the groups. There's 4 main groups in my age of society. Here's a graph type thing:

'Cool' - Mainly consits of women. Normally the kind of person who is superofficial, OMG SHOPPING! AnD TyPeS UpPeRcAsE AnD LoWeRcAsE SeNtEnCeS! Sometimes these people can be nice. About half half really. I wouldn't really call them Cool.

'Jock' - Mainly consits of guys. Loves football. *Egh* Is brought in by controlling people. Not all the time, they can be really nice. Woo

'Nerd' - Normally teased by the Cool and Jock group for who they are. That's meeeean

'Outsider' - The kind of people who don't want to be labelled and would rather die than fit in with one of the Cool or Jock groups. Wants to be different.

What am I you ask? Outsider.

Now for individual people:

I can really only think of one at the moment.

'Leader/Dictator' - Doesn't care what group they're in as long as they could either change the group, be the leader of the group, and exclude others.

Sorry if this has insulted you (Wait, I'm not sorry) I'm extremely pissed.

BYEEEEEEEEEEE

Ooh, aah, I lost my sanity! I left it in my boyfriend's mental asylum!

What a joyous few weeks it's been. Been quite adventureous. Lemme begin with this:

BOYSRROTTENMADEOUT2COTTONGIRLSRNTSXYMADEOUT2PEPSI

WTF IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?! I REALLY DESPISE THAT SONG. And that Tamara chick is a slut. Anyway, I'm scratching my foot now. Think a mozzie got me.

Dad let out the cat this morning and he hasn't seenit since. Arrf.

Since Wednesday's sport lesson, start of the week for me, everybody has been singing the "Rip, slip, brush, ahh!" Thing off that uberly gay advertisement. You know, people singing about some thing you put your finger to brush your teeth (apparently it takes 3 of them to get your mouth clean.) Now then, we were doing kick-offs or something, and all of a sudden Steph just started singing "RIP, SLIP, BRUSH, AHHH!!!" Oman uberly funny. So now everybody is. About 5 minutes after, Abe (though whenever I spell his name I spell it A-B-D-E-D) decided to sing it: Strip, lick, suck, ahh! How uberly gross. Totarrlyy.

Today's the 30th right? Well who cares, cept me. Now then, Telstra's being a bitch about our internet and other things...

A few weeks ago dad was trying to switch his mobile from Telstra to Optus. Telstra got his brithday wrong, and took a week to do something that should've taken not even a day.

From the 18th to the 26th, the net was supposed to be installed at our place. We had to put TPG (internet) and Telstra (phone) together for ADSL, but Telstra took too long. So we called and they said it would be done on the 28th. Well, it wasn't. So yesterday we called back, and they said it will happen on the 2nd. Fat chance.

Because of Telstra being slacky, I'm at dad's place writing this, just like I was for my last 2 bloggies. LAWLEH BLOGGIES.

Last night me and Kirk went to COC youth for the first time. UBERLY COOL. MUST GO AGAIN. Basacially all other 49 year 7's have gone to PenCC for some reason, that place has got to be the worst youth evar. It's the exact same boring crap each week. At COC it's always creative, funny, and just heaps o' funness. PenCC suxx0rz. Next week COC are doing this uberly cool activity, it's like a pizza scavanger hunt, but cooler than a lameass scavanger hunt. We're split up into 3 groups, and we drive around Franga to the leader's house to beg/steal/buy/borrow pizza toppings from leader's houses. When we have them all, we bring le toppings back to the church to make PIZZARRRR!!! Uber cool.

This Easy Mac tastes so plain. Probably because I added too much water then starined it and flavour probably strained too.

Goodbye, fair Helena.

Blog, Ala Johnny

I'VE BEEN INSPIRED BY JUZZ'S HUGELY LONG BLOG ENTRY.

I'm at dad's place again doing nothing, seeing as there's nothing better to do. He still has the net and I don't.

I was reading Juzz'd blog just before and he wrote a list of people he wants to meet. here's an example of one:

1. The kid on the sultana bran who goes "NAHAHAHA" randomly when he is asked a question

OMG I'M LAUGHING SO MUCH AT THAT..... Arrf. Now blahblahblah

RAWRJOHNNETHSMAAAAASHRAWKLAWL

I phoned with Juzz a few days ago. He starts school again on Wednesday, uber bummar.

Here's a list of people I want to meet:

1. A LA JUZZY (and all people associated with Juzzy.) This would include: Jesse, Emma, Sair, umm... Drew.. Dan.. meh can't think of many more.

Here's a list of people I never want to see again:

1. Mrs. Field

2. Britney Spears

3. Shiny Bald-Headed Eagle.

Here's a list of things I want gone from my life:

1. School.

I've been downloading Family Guy at dad's place. Ala Peter. What does ala mean? Uber random. I'm downloading more FG now anyway, not sure why, I've explained it to about 3 people today anyway. Juzz suggested I go random all over my entry so that I shall. I might just go crazy for a minute, and then I go back to whatever it is I do. Which I don't believe is anything.

MWAAHAHAHA I'M SO DELIOUSISLY (WHATEV .) EEEEEVIL. NAYHAHA

WHOAMGBBQSAUCELAWLJOHNNETHSMASHIHOPEJUZZYCANCOMEDOWNTOVICTORIAHEWANTSTOMETTMEANDERRIBERRIANDDELLANDITWILLBEUBERCOOLICAN'TFINDTHEDAYUMSPACEBAROHTHEREITISSPACEBAR.

It's a sah-weeet trip to a candy shop where bon-bons play, on the sunny beach of peppermint bay.

Please donate for a trip for my dying friend Juzz (he has Ala Juzz disease.) so he can take a trip down to Victoria. This is his dying wish. Please donate. Contact me for details.

Shiny bald-headed eagle, the mother of all evil, and a part time Year 7 English teacher, is giving us weekend homework because he forgot we had today off because it's Anzac Day. (dumbass bitch. I'm so angry. I don't wanna write a freakin short story, I've written like 50 of em. MOVE ONTO SOMETHING NEW YOU IMBOSSILES.)

You know what really burns me up? Society. Yes, for example, people base their lives on repetitive music (For instance, people like Mario, Jesse McCartey, and others basically have the same music every time, then why the hell do people like them?) It's a travesty. It's all identical. PICK SOMETHING NEW JERKS.

And television! It rocks. Although there are some shows, like The OC, which all of the "cool group" of people in Year 7 at my school basically live their life according to that show. (Ooh lesbians I'll turn lesbian.)

Which brings me on to something else: Crowds. What the hell is the point of these people? They're like followers you know. The bad people. There's like 30 of them out of the 50 Year 7's this year and they all follow each other. They all watch OC, listen to repetitive music, and think the only way to get popular is to go and kiss a stranger they've known for exactly 2 weeks. It burns me up inside. My neck hurts. They always hang out behind a building making out, throwing stuff, swearing, being bitches. I've had it. They classify people as to what their opinion of them is: Recently I got labelled a nerd for not hanging out with the drones. Wtf? What if doing what I do (yes, I like having friends, and I'm on the computer a lot) was actually the thing that 'normal' people did? Does that mean the idiots would get labelled as nerds?

Thanks a lot self, now I'm angry. Nyahahha.

Anyway imma play some Solitaire with Adelle, in which she will kick my ass as usual. If Juzz ends up coming down to Victoria, I will invite Dell and Erin and Juzz over to my house and we have a party. ;) Lol, it will be uber cool. Anyway, I'm off to getting my ass kicked. Toodles.
