So. You know when you buy a new computer? Yeah, me too. Well, I just did, and it made me remember one of my microsoft pet peeves. You know how they always put random stuff in your "my pictures" and "my music," etc? Like they put pictures and music there to demonstrate because you couldn't figure out what could possibly belong in a folder called "my music." So they assume that I actually know or care who in the world Marc Seales or The Posies are. Give me a break. I have this picture in my mind of some soft-jazz obsessed programmer up in Seattle loading new versions of windows with crap music to spread his mediocrity to the masses. Of course his supervisors would go through and cull the excess files, but some would inevitably slip through and end up polluting my ear drums and those of millions of others. Do you think that starving kids in China want to listen to "OAM's Blues" by Aaron Goldberg? That won't fill their bellies. Just quit trying to a difference because IT'S NOT WORKING.Tuesday, June 17, 2008

Please know that (1) I LOVE comments, and (2) if you leave an anonymous comment, I will be driven insane wondering who you are.
I just told you how to simultaneously make me really happy and really crazy (well crazier than normal anyways). That's probably dangerous.
