Pointless Fashion
Tonight I went to Urban Outfitters with my sister. For some reason I thought it wasn't going to be annoying as usual, but I was wrong. But this time it wasn't really the people who worked there that annoyed me. Usually people who work there are all scenesters that have this look on there face that says, "I'm so fucking cool, how dare you shop here." For some reason, I don't know why, I wasn't really annoyed by the workers but the clothes. Have you ever seen an article of clothing and thought, "that's really pointless, what's the point of that?" Well there was at least three items like that and probably many more that I didn't see.
One example of this, were these mittens that covered everything except the part the most people want covered, the FINGERS. Call me old fashioned, but I like my fingers covered up in my mittens. I've never experienced the sensation of only my palms being cold. You're probably saying, "Katie you moron, they've been making these for ages". But no, not like these, these were cut off before they even got to the fingers. They weren't the ones that were gloves but just had the fingers half cut off. They didn't have any finger holes! Just like one big opening for your hand to slip through, and then another little opening on the side for your thumb. I bet if you felt like it you could just slip the thing up onto your elbow.
The second item I saw were the highly obnoxious "shutter" glasses. The glasses with no lenses and just the little shutter slit things that make it look like your looking through blinds. Again, completely pointless. They obviously don't block the sun. They don't block the wind. And they look shit, not to mention make you look like an idiot. If I saw someone wearing these in public I seriously would not hold back the urge to punch them in the face.
The third piece I saw was this vest. But of course it wasn't a normal proportioned vest. The designers basically cut the fabric off right below the breasts. Fucking pointless! You obviously want something to go over your shirt, not some flimsy thing that covers basically just your boobs and none of your chest. It's pointless. It's not like you get any warmth or protection from the wind. You're basically paying 30 bucks for something to go over your boobs. You might as well just wear a bra over your shirt. It'd probably look a lot less shit anyway.

Why?
I had just finished writing an eloquent piece of journalism when my finger spasmed and deleted the whole thing. Fuck me.

The Stages of Freaks and Geeks
(This actually wasn't written by me, I copied this from a freaks and geeks forum about 2 years ago)
The stages you through when you first discover the boxed set of F&G
1. Happiness - Excitement overwhelms you! What a fantabulous show! How come all of these characters are so amazing. I have so many more episodes left and each one is brilliant!
2. Denial - What?!? Im almost done with all the episodes?!?! That can't be true! It can't be true that there are no more seasons! I don't believe it! Oh GODD
3. Depression - I hate life. This show brings tears to my eyes as it is so wonderful. I love these people more than my own best friends. I hate the human race because this brilliant show got cancelled. I hate dealing with people b/c no one can compete with the freaks and the geeks! I wish I never saw this show just because of the pain I experience as of this moment!
4. Acceptance - It's okay. I can still watch the show whenever I want to! I love these characters and always will but I suppose it's okay to not spit on anyone who is not similar to them. At least they made this show in the first place!

Blog #1
So, I've been thinking of doing one of these blog things for a while now. Mainly because I've realized that my thoughts and opinions sound much more original and insightful written out than when I speak. When I speak I can never quite get my point across. Number one because I mumble, and number two because I always leave out huge chunks of stories/anecdotes etc. I don't know how often I will update this thing. I will probably forget about it in a week or so, but hopefully not. I will probably end up writing about things that annoy me or piss me off, even though I'll try not to. So I guess I'll leave it here. Wow, that sucked.
