Tangents

I go off on what I like to call tangents. I'm pretty sure that's not the formal definition of what I do but, whatever. It's a tangent. I define it as a moment of time during which I become obsessed with a particular activity or Intellectual Property. Well, Obsessed is too strong of a word. I harbor a deep interest in it. Some tangents I've been on include:

• Rubik's cube (During which I learned to solve the little bugger)
• Death Note (a very interesting anime series and manga series that revolves around a magic notebook that upon writing someones name in it, they die.)
• My Little Pony (The latest internet obsession. I feel no shame in admitting it. See previous post.)
• Old Cartoons (By old I mean cartoons from my childhood. I couldn't get enough of them.)
• Whose Line is it Anyway? (Funny show. go watch it now.)
• Scrubs (Ditto)
• Blogging (I find this very entertaining.)
• Work (From time to time it absorbs me)
• School (Yeah.)
• Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney (Great series of games. I refuse to acknowledge the existence of the Apollo Justice game. <spoiler> Phoenix can't become a hobo! </Spoiler>)

These tangents can go for weeks, months, possibly even a year. But eventually, the embers of interest die off. After which I move on to the next thing. I like to think that, in my head, the previous tangent meets up with the new one and passes the baton. Phoenix was my last tangent. The ponies are the new one. I imagine that was an awkward meeting. Hell, the fact that the ponies are even in here is a strange thing to accept once in a while. that's why I like this blog. It gives the illusion that I'm telling people these things but to my knowledge only one person is reading this. Like confessing your secrets to an empty room with the janitor in a corner of the room sweeping. (Now that I mention it, I think the person who reads my blog IS a janitor at a school. Johnsticle... Go read his blog... Go read your blog.)

Yeah, well. I need to go back to work now. in the mean time, o read my last post. I worked hard on that one dammit. How about this, if you read it and complete the challenge you may openly mock me in the comments. And i will proceed to "Love and Tolerate the shit out of you." lol. Whatever. i'm bored. Bye.
