TOO much lol?

I was lounging around in my room earlier this afternoon, and a question popped into my head: How many lolblogs do you think there are on the internet (interwebz, intertubez)? I decided I would try to find all the lol-type blogs on the interwebz.
Well, after researching a little, I have lost quite a few braincells and found a mind-boggling amount of lols, lolz, lulz, lals, and lawls. Dere iz soooo much stufz on da intewebzz its awesum!!!! I cud just sit heere all dai!!! and git marbidly obeese!!!! but at leest de katz, goggies, hawses, carz, celebriteez, politikz, kakez, tatooz, googlez, GRAPHZ,SIGNZ,BABIEZ,FOODZ,ANIMALZ,COMIX,WEDDINGZ, r funni!!!!!! U mite sai Hee-laryus!!!

Without further ado:
loldogs, too
lolcelebrities? roflrazzi (barf)
lol.. ..uh... political news? and an impostor (loliticz? really?)
lol famous art (i know)

and then this spawned the zillions and squillions of "doesn't-say-lol-but-lol-is-implied" (and usually sans-obnoxious misspelled words in Impact) websites. Usually has something to do with "fail" or "win" or "epic fail" or "epic win" or "super epic fail win" or "for the win" "fin eail win fail super epic win epic fail win" or "AAAAGGGHHHH" (or maybe that's just me)
for instance:
the ever-present failblog
Fark (weird and quotable news?) or Probably Bad News
There, I fixed it (epic kludges)
Cake wrecks (terrible cakes)
God hates protesters (one of my personal favorites)
regretsy (definitely one of my favorites)
pwned on camera (still kind of a mystery to as what this is really about.. hawtness?)
Emails from crazy people (ok.. I love this one, I admit it)
not as described (lol ads apparently)
of course, the epic win
Graph jam - although those are actually pretty funny.
poorly dressed (photos of ugly people and ugly clothes.... wow, that's original.)
Engrish funny (as if there isn't already an engrish.com...?)
Wedinator ("funny" weddings)
Comixed ("funny" comics from popular photos)
Can't forget... My first fail for baby exploitation at it's finest
Acting like animals (animals..... acting like animals.)
Babysaur (still don't really know what this thing's about.. didn't care enough to read it)
Daily Squee (Allison's #1 fave website of course other than cuteoverload.com )
Epicute.. the cute food blog. I am pretty sure there is a cute "everything" by now.
Totally looks like - funny look-alikes
Nostalgia - also known as "once upon a win" -sob- goodbye childhood...
Om Nom Nom Nom ....dotcom
Awkward Family Photos.... how could I forget this one!
aaand... Sketchy Santas!


I think if i ever heard anyone actually say the word "squee" I might implode.


And then...... can't forget the ones where you can read little minutiae about people's lives!!!!!!!!
lmylife (try and guess what that one is)
My life is so many things.......
it made my day (little moments of win - ugh-)

and of course....

the most terrifying of them all......



and then I went Hughhhh! Arrghhhh! BlrarhaghhhHHhhHblubglubkjadfh

and then I drowned in blogs and had to stop cause I started feeling a little nauseous. I also started feeling like this guy:

ick. I also came upon this site of terrifying internet memes (mostly from 4chan, of course, that SUPER EVIL internet hate machine full of super-hackers on steroids.)

However, if you clicked on all those blogs, I feel sorry for you - I mean - cough - good going. And if you're seduced by all the lulz, there's always the lolMart. The list is to be continued when I recover from my lolventures.

Today in Homosexuality and Civilization we learned that in England, you could get sentenced to life in jail for sodomy until 1965. And in America, there were still sodomy laws and people getting arrested for sodomy until 2003. They didn't get rid of them until two-thousand-and-three. That greatly disturbs me. Really greatly.

I had another vivid dream last night. I dreamt I had another baby. It came as a semi-surprise to me because I had sort of forgotten that I was pregnant because I barely showed or had any symptoms or anything. In my dream I was seeing some guy, but I was desperately not over Elle. So I had the baby - someone (I think it was my mother) laid on top of me to help push it out. It didn't hurt, but I could feel it coming out of there, and I was physically pushing really hard. Then someone cut the umbilical cord with a pair of scissors but it was connected to my bellybutton as well as the baby's so it just laid there on my stomach (TMI, I know.)
well, I guess my boyfriend forgot that was going to happen, or I forgot to tell him, but I was pretty sure I remembered to tell him. But I staggered to the doorway with my newborn baby in my hands, and he looked up, a look of shock and disgust and betrayal on his face. I was standing there in the doorway desperately sobbing, and he grabbed some of his things and left and wouldn't talk to me. I was freaking out and sobbing and wondering what I was going to do with this baby because I couldn't keep it because I was too young and part of me wanted to keep it but most of me wanted to give it away. Someone took me to the adoption agency room but I hesitated, couldn't do it outright, had to think it out in my head some more.
So I went to go find Elle. She was in her room, and I was so happy and relieved to see her, and she helped me with the baby situation. She was talking to her residents, and when I came in holding a baby her eyes got all wide and she politely excused herself and told her residents to leave. I can't remember exactly what happened. But we were back together and that was the happiest I was in the entire dream.

It was really sad. Most of the dream consisted of me crying. Really hard, saying I am too young to take care of a baby. I woke up and was still residual sad.

also: nothing makes me more angry than uneducated arguments. People who are angry and arguing just to be arguing. Or people who are so blindsided by one argument that they won't listen to the other side. There's always more than one side to something. Idealists. pure politics or ideals without being realistic or rational. like anarchists. people who are into something because it is convenient for them. Identity tourists.

honk hooooonkkkkkkkkk

I find it so interesting that we have these triggers that fill us with completely unreasonable incandescent rage. Did something happen when we were children to make us feel this way, or is it part of our personality, who knows.

Mine is when people honk their horns in their cars. Now, I'm a pretty non-confrontational person when something is annoying me. But, the other day, right outside my window, this guy started leaning on his horn. Like, really leaning on it nonstop for about 2 minutes. Which doesn't sound like a lot but when it's a REALLY LOUD HORN it's forever. I got so angry that I threw open my window and yelled SHUT THE FUCK UP! YOU THINK PEOPLE DON'T LIVE HERE!??!?!?
I don't think he heard me but I was really unreasonably angry about it. I fumed about it to Allison for like 10 minutes after, like "motherfuckers don't think people live here and can't hear it, bla bla bla so rude and pointlessly obnoxious," etc etc, and it still makes me angry even thinking about it now.

We live on the corner of a very busy intersection, and I just can't seem to get over the amount of loud cars that pass by our windows. I'm guilty of this too, I guess, but people stop outside the intersection and we can hear the loud rap music in our apartment with the windows closed. The sirens probably bother me the most. A loud siren comes roaring down McMechen or Mount Royal pretty much every few hours every day, and it always unsettles me for a good while every time. Firetrucks and ambulances have the absolute loudest and most obnoxious horns in existence, and apparently people in Baltimore have forgotten the protocol for pulling over for firetrucks and ambulances, so they just leeeeean on their horns. So, in addition to the sound of sirens raping my eardrums, there's the added HONK HONK HONK HONK HONK HONK HOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNKKKKKKKKKKKK of the firetrucks. So, lovely.

Did I mention that I really, really, really, really hate car horns? Especially when people do it just to be obnoxious, and it's not just a perfunctory "hey, buddy, you're about to crash into me" kind of thing. That's one of the things that bothers me about east coast cities. People don't know how to drive.
