space-oddity's Diaryland Diary ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- swapping bah. i've been doing a lot of swapping at swappingtons. clay thinks it's a stupid idea. we were thinking of ways people could cheat the system the other day, and there are a lot of ways. first, you could sign up with one account, and then make several fake accounts using your original as the referral, thus you get mega points this way. then, we noticed that andrew was giving everyone five points who signed up for the mailing list, so that way, all the fake accounts you signed up with could possibly have five points each. then, you could put up a bunch of shit for swap on your original account, all five points each, and swap amongst your fake accounts, accumulating even more points on your original account and never having to send out one damned thing because, hey, it's fake anyway, and then you could use your abundance of points to rule the world and make weapons of mass destruction.. or maybe not. anywho, the point is that i think there's potential for some bad shit to go down on this site. i don't know if they have some kind of special code encrypted in the system so they can detect the bad stuff when and if it goes down, but i'm skeptical. anywho, i keep on swapping. i'm sending out five little packages tomorrow, and i should be receiving nick hornby's about a boy and interpol's turn on the bright lights very shortly. it's good stuff. one thing though. if by chance the bad shit does start to go down, the system will become inflated with too many points. a dvd will eventually be like 100 points or something, and someone will have to inevitably pull the plug. then where will all the points go? that would be ass. it's like when you cheat at playing the sims, and you give yourself five gazillion simoleons, eventually you don't know why you're even "playing" the game and it gets boring and you get tired of building that kick ass mansion, so you quit and go sit on the couch and eat cookie dough. i'm worried this site will have to quit and go sit on the couch and eat cookie dough, and in the process, all the people who didn't cheat will be stuck with left over points for swap credit that they didn't get to use. woo. why doesn't tom hanks make tom hanks kind of movies anymore? i miss stuff like the burbs. i'd settle for joe versus the volcanoe II. i really would. i don't think i'm being stupid when i say stuff like this. tell me if i'm wrong. i've been wanting to buy a lot of pink stuff lately. everything in pink. does this mean i finally know what it feels like to be girlie? something i've dreaded my whole life. why? i don't know. i guess i should embrace my femininity, but damn it, most of the time it's just too difficult. i feel like i've suddenly been rocketed to outerspace when most women approach me and begin to talk. i just don't know what to say. clay's right. most women just want to talk about food and/or kids. i'm just not up for it. i cut my own hair for heavenssakes. i can't even talk about my trip to the salon because i don't dare step foot in one. i still bite my fingernails sometimes, and i curse. a lot. sometimes i just feel that i shouldn't have been born a woman. not that i hate being one, i just find it a little difficult to relate sometimes. nevertheless, there's a pink merino wool twin set in the mail with my address on it. if that doesn't have 100% woman written all over it, then nothing does. see, i'm trying. 2:32 am - 01.27.03 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
