And in the spirit of starting with two straight Simpson's references, John Updike, ghostwriter of Krusty the Clown's autobiography, has died. He will be missed. I've never read any of his work though I'm sure its fine stuff, as I hear his name often.
In other interesting news, we had our first hit from Romania today, someone in Cluj. Cluj gave Chelsea quite a run for their money in the Champions League group stages, so good for them. Worryingly, however, is that this guy stumbled upon us by googling "digestion humorless."
Perhaps hes onto something...
Lastly, if you direct your attention to the links on the left, we have a Twitter now. Uh...I don't know why, honestly. I had some free time. So if you want to see what is essentially a bunch of unimaginative, unfunny Facebook status updates, click away. It passes the time.
So, as most of you probably heard yesterday, a woman in California gave birth to eight kids. Obviously I think this is horrifying. We glorify these things now when we should be doing the exact opposite, its needless. Now I'm sure this woman didn't set out to have eight children but she should be forced to pick the four that will survive, and the rest will be put down. Just because she irresponsibly scarfed down fertility drugs like a retard on pudding day doesn't make her a hero. But she'll be treated as one, and she'll probably get a show on TLC.
Now in fairness, this was basically an accident. She isn't as bad as that insufferable Duggar family. You know, 18 kids and counting? It was 17 but that bitch had another one. Worse yet, their oldest son got married to a girl that he never kissed, because he was raised in what is essentially a religious cult. I'm not sure what TLC wants us to think, it seems like they're just playing it as a straight documentary in order to outrage the viewing public. Sort of like My Super Sweet Sixteen which is nothing short of an abomination, but you knew that.
In an ideal world, we would live under an extremely oppressive government that has developed the technology to control reproduction and if you wanted a child you have to apply. You have to make a certain amount of credits a year(remember, its the future) to ensure that you can provide for it, as well as a physical and mental evaluation. If you pass that, then and only then will you be able to have a child. One single child, we'll have the technology. You must resubmit your claim for each subsequent child, and only in the event of your child's death will you be able to have more than two.
Every child is not special, because that would mean none are special. And some grow up to be Heidi Montag, there are no excuses for that.
