Necessary Evils

Facebook
Should be self explanatory...

fake friends
incredible stalking tool

Desi parties
they are all the same
somewhat lame

Social Skills
you'll be friendless without em
once you have friends, you can quit and be yourself

there are a ton
what are yours?
Active Idle Art

A new art genre.
I find myself only inspired when idle (usually at work).
Its active because to make it legit, i think you need the context of active-idle. Sorta like jackson pollack- action art- or whatever the heck its called.
Active Idle Art (AIA) would not be quite as actiony as jackson, but would need to be active-idle.
Many people may call this doodling.
Maybe
But this would be legit art.
When i think of doodling i think of people who are bored- and start drawing pre-canned figures they learned when they were twelve.
like the little cats and dogs with cute simple lines
that is not what im talkin bout
im talking about inspired art- when idle
maybe this is just regular art
i dont know
im not a fullblown artist
but i find whenever i try to 'art' i cant
(i.e. lazy sunday afternoon- lets do some art- its relaxing, expressive, yours, fuck the world ima do me time)
but for me- i get nothin
(hence maybe this is why many artists smoke weed and dont have day jobs- thier whole lives are open for inspiration)
for me i think i feel the world is too restrictive (sitting in an office, in a meeting where people argue about computer furniture, and workflow diagrams, or moreover- about tangents that help us never to get anything done) so you can draw- create your own lil expressive creation (however lame it may be) but its yours
its not on the agenda
in fact, maybe it IS on the agenda-you put it there- and its taking OVER your agenda
like a vine or virus
you're screwing up the agenda!!!
either case- you get the point
