Blogging is sort of stupid

It’s Sunday night and you think all of your homework is done. Then you remember you’re an AP Lang student and you now have at least 3 blogs to write and the word count must total up to 1200 words. DAMN IT. What does one blog about when one has nothing to write about?  The answer is simple. One blogs about how much he or she hates blogging. Where do I begin?

Blogging is stupid because I don’t know if people even read what I write. Hello? Is there anyone out there? SPEAK TO ME IF YOU ARE READING MY POINTLESS BLOG. Maybe if I knew my rants were being read, I wouldn’t mind blogging. On the other hand, though, maybe not.

Blogging is stupid because I could be sleeping right now. I would much rather be rested for a full day of bullshit, I mean school, tomorrow. I think it would be safe to assume that my teachers would appreciate a rested Jenny in class rather than a Jenny that can’t focus because she’s seconds away from falling asleep on her desk. That’s just a guess, though.

Blogging is stupid because I try to be funny but am I actually making people laugh? I guess this also reintroduces the first question I had. Does anyone read my blog to laugh? If a tree falls and no one is around to hear it, does it still make a sound? If I write a funny blog and no one reads it to laugh, is it still funny?

Blogging is stupid because I feel like I need to write quality things and use my “skills” I've learned thus far in AP Lang. Diction is important for my audience… if there is an audience. Do you understand my words? Are they colloquial enough for you? Are my sentences structured well? Is anyone even reading this?

Blogging is stupid because I never know what to write about. What do people want to read? If I wrote about what people wanted to read, then would I have an audience to laugh at my funny blogs and judge my diction and syntax? THEN WOULD I BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR THIS CRUEL WORLD!?

Blogging is stupid because I’m missing the Blackhawks game that is on right now. If I didn’t have to blog, I could watch the game with my daddy, complain when things go wrong, and celebrate excessively when things go so very right.

I’m not saying I don’t enjoy ranting to a possibly nonexistent audience. I’m just saying blogging is sort of stupid. Period. Point blank.  End of discussion.
