So this is my 100th blog post. When I first started my blog I was but a bright eyed intern, freshly out of medical school ready to take on the world. Actually, come to think of it that wasn't me, that was J.D. on Scrubs. Ah, now I remember, when I started this blog I was a bitter autistic teenager who used humour and sarcasm to mask his inherent insecurities. But over the years I've changed. For example, I'm now a bitter autistic teenager who uses humour and sarcasm to mask my inherent insecurities with a beard. And as I've changed, so has the focus of my blog. What used to be primarily a blog about autism and the world has slowly morphed into a platform for me to tell the world about my beard. But it's more than just a beard reviewing site, it's also a site to follow the never ending adventure that is my life. For instance, there was that time I didn't sleep (posts one, two and three), and then there was the time that I, urm, didn't sleep again (all in one post this time). Okay, perhaps calling my life an adventure would be a bit of a stretch, it's more of a dull repetitive ache in the universe. But adventure or not I still find time to muse on a variety of different issues, such as sex, normality, perception, the nature of existence and, of course, shoelaces. It should be noted that my version of musing is akin to most peoples' version of drunken blathering. I occasionally also do series of blogs, to give you the impression that I have some idea of what I'm doing. These include the series "philosophy and retro games" (Pacman and Ultra Neuron Pong), The draw of: The arts, the sciences and philosophy, and who could forget, Algar in Wonderland by Livvy (parts one, two, three, four, five and six. There are a lot of these.)
But through it all I've always had my loyal readers. Actually, that's blatantly not true, anyone with any taste, life or valuable time has already stopped reading this blog. I mean, I'm thankful for those of you have stuck it out, but really? Is reading me insulting you really the best use of your time? Well if it really is, it might be the best use of someone else's time too. So to celebrate my blog turning 100, go forth and spread the word of my blog. No, this isn't me shamelessly trying to get a greater readership by cashing in on a meaningless milestone. No, you're an egocentric idiot with a dumb blog. No, you shut up. I'm not talking to you any more.
I'm sorry, we can still be friends, I just get crazy sometimes when talking to my hypothetical readers. No, of course I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to the general concept of you. No, I'm not crazy, you are. I'm not the imaginary person picking fights with someone online, am I? No, that's you, so you're crazy.
Anyway, this celebration has kind of gone to a bit of a weird place, but if you're still reading this (which I'm willing to bet you are) then I'll see you next week with more crazy talk. Or, hopefully, less.
