Internets!

So let me explain.
I created a blog a year or so ago...possibly longer.
And then as I always do (and will most likely do with this one,) I stopped writing it after about 5 or 6 entries. Which is a shame since I had a plan. I was going to go through my unnecessarily large DVD collection and painstakingly review each and every detail of each and every movie. I would listen to every commentary, look at every special feature, scan through every collection of photos that no one ever really looks at. I WOULD DO IT.
Then I didn't. You see, I have Netflix, and the public library, and honestly, I rarely watch the things I own. I'm too busy watching things I don't own.
As I did watch them, I would decide whether I would keep them in my collection or I would offer them up for sale on Ebay and the like.
This didn't really happen.
And time passed. And I forgot my password. And then I remembered it. And then I didn't want to do that anymore. For posterity's sake, though, here it is: http://tshirtrebellion.blogspot.com/ And for even more posterity's sake, here's my livejournal which was started in 2004 back when I was in high school, and was most recently in in 2007: http://tshirtrebellion.livejournal.com/ You know, for the sake of posterity.
Recently, however, I finished the internet. I looked at everything. Twice. Then it was suggested I write a blog about it. A blog about my adventures on the internet. An internet-sized blog about the internet that would, naturally, have to be as large as the internet, and would, in essence, be an entire other internet on its own. Then my computer exploded.
So I decided to do such a thing. Or at least just create a blog because I have nothing better to do. And what do you know, but Ifinishedtheinternet.blogspot.com is taken!
Excuse me? How dare you take my clever name and use it in a rather humourous (that's right, British!) manner? I came up with the finished the internet thing! That's my thing! Well, no worries. I'll take it one step further. I finished the internetS! That will show you, picture of the cosmos that was surely a one-time joke and will never be used again!
So I changed my domain begrudgingly to the internets, and dropped the I.
What will this blog contain? Messages longer than 140 characters. Thanks, Twitter.
So I'll start it off with a joke. Enjoy.
I finished the internet recently. It was sort of like Stephen King's It. Really long, took me years to finish it, sort of interesting throughout, and then really disappointing at the end. And the movie versions had Tim Curry and John Ritter in them. There were no clowns turning into spiders on the internet, but there were a lot of links turning into the music video for Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up. Hey, by the way, look at this music video for Rick Astley's Never Gonna Give You Up.
Huh. I guess I was wrong about you, internet. You've got everything. Even that.
Now I finished the internets!
