How to be a broke-ass: Introduction

Picture this if you will. It’s Friday night, you’ve just gotten a paycheck from work. You’re overjoyed! You have money! The world is your oyster!! Then you realize that your check pretty much entirely goes to your cell phone bill, your utilities, rent, groceries for the week and and any other payments that you need to be making. Suddenly that joyous feeling has been trumped by a feeling of despair, as you’ve now got a measly hundred bucks left to your name to last you the next two weeks for food, gas, and “fun.”

Have I sufficiently depressed you enough?

So what

2010: I resolve to…

Once every three hundred and sixty five days we have a rebirth. A new beginning. A chance to re-evaluate our lives and make resolutions to change for the better. A new year.

Or do we?

Not to be cynical or anything, but isn’t January 1st just the beginning of a new month? And don’t we have a new month every thirty (or so) days? Hell, narrow that down just a bit further and you’ve got a new week. And we have one of those every seven days. Narrow that down even further, and you’ve got the beginning of a new day.

BEAST Watch

This next excerpt is actually from a friend of mine. It’s actually rather disturbing.

Should this even be allowed? And honestly, is there even anything we can do about this?

I was in the chatroom the other day, with just a few members. My internet was lagging when it should not have been (I don’t exactly have equipment you’d call a dinosaur). Wondering what was happening, I ran netstat -a in my command prompt. For you who do not know what that means, I saw who was using my connection. Of course LDSTown was eating *some*

Another week.

So this week I’m looking at implementing a couple things to keep me actively posting things that are entertaining to read. Gimmicks if you will. For example. My friend Lindsey (Lindsey’s Rantings) has a Monday 13 that she posts.

Now, I have my “5 O’Clock Rant” (permanent name still out for decision) which I plan on instating for kicks, but what about something weekly? Or even bi-weekly?

Any thoughts, ideas, comments, “we really don’t care”’s?

End of the Day Rant

Facebook.

I love it. I’m on it all day long, but there’s one tiny little thing I wish they’d add. We’re all familiar with the “Like” button under everything and it’s mother.

What about a “Don’t Like” button, or something of similar context? I mean, seriously. I don’t want to “Like” everything.

What do you think?

Facebook v. MySpace

I did this post on a previous blog, but it’s actually a curious topic to me, so I figured I’d make it more of a “poll” type post.

I used to be a gigantic MySpace fan. I wanted nothing to do with Facebook, thought it was way to complicated, and way to many of those stupid “App” invites. Since they’ve updated it though, and MySpace seems to be copying anything Facebook does, I’ve become converted. Let me explain why.

I have my own music projects that I’m involved in. My main project I push is The
