h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Sigh- It's the end of that magical time; why is it thart Christmas and all of its many attributes flow past ever quicker these days. One moment you're actually enjoying the days of escape from the humdrumity of life and the next you're back here...

Here- the endless dull void that meet my eyes, already the weight of the world fills my shoulders, neck and head indicating that I should rise from my dreaming state and face the world- but; I'm not ready yet. Work for me becomes an-everlasting row of hurdles- sure that it's going to be good when it's finished but when will that be? Escape was the only thing I was looking forward to; things haven't been as Great this Christmas as they were last year- now that was relaxing, of course I didn't have this huge load on my mind; everyday the pressure grows on me like lichen spores forming on an innocent brickwall.
I try to ignore it but it continually batters at me...- Sigh.

Plus; it's a new year- Huzzah! Yes, You can hear my sarcasm well in that cry, just another year, my battle with the elements faltering and my cause no ending in sight. Yet I feel nothing, no great achievements have been made, clearly because outside my narrowing perspective the world rockets past me at such a rate that I am being continually thrown into the past. Nothing has changed; my bodyclock still refuses me to see the early hours of the working day, so I loose half of it, living in bleaksville doesn't help matters becausde there's no where to go, no inspiration or socialising. Typical that those many years ago I went online to try and escape those troubles...-Sigh (a little one).

These days however, things are always appearing daunting to me; I see old friends appear on MSN and yet I'm in one of those states when I can't be bothered to speak, yet harbour fresh new additions to my dull life. Respect and acknowledgement from people these days is exceedingly low, I'm ignored or talked down to by bigotted, moronic ego-maniacs who want only to further their apparent immortalised vision of themselves by starting their hilariously pathetic Planet Skaro Awards scheme just to jump their egos up a further notch!

Some of them have virtually the entire world at their feet and yet they waste their lives wandering acting so-superior, arrogant and clique.
Of course this is all conducted when they're plastered at a pub, so they're even more going to apply their egos; "All's fair in love and war"- except when they're drunk, perhaps I'll get yet another "Award for being confusing!" or "Person most likely to have a nervous breakdown!";- Do these people's egos' have no respect at all for anyone other than their tin-pot little organisations?

Apparently not, even their so-promoted "Moderators" are visually cruel, evil heartless creatures who will justify mocking someone, who is absent and think that it's just for a bit of fun!!!!- The words of a bully no less! They believe themselves to be powerful but what was it they said about corruption and its effects?

It's not like it was in the old days and by this rate it certainly won't be like them again. The Clique are forever festering, growing progressively stronger; I come online to converse, socialise and because I enjoy it- now I'm starting to loose my enjoyment of it. You say something that should provoke intellectual discussion and you instantly receive their mentality- Short, blunt and uninterested! But they'll gladly feed the threads of mockery and cruel jesting at someone; the trolls on the old forums were at least people who didn't care what they did, or who they did it to; we were faces in the crowd but these people- they're worse, twisted, pathetic creatures so indrawn into their own little fantasies that their Egos ruin it for everyone else!

Welcome to our clubhouse! EVERYONE'S WELCOME! COME ON, COME ON, Oh,... it's you, got a pass?

So much for a bright new year... Humdrum normality has returned, trouble is even now- you can picture it; whenever you read this; they'll be doing their sorry little lives away being arrogant, cruel on that forum. Virtually 24/7!

Don't they know most of it was puppets, for the children...

Hiya!

Agree with all that you say friend.
Planet Skaro is the biggest bunch of...sycophants I've ever seen-they make me want to puke to be honest...I could name names-but I won't...I'm sure you know the particular ones I mean anyway.

Any old how...better off without 'em, you're wasted on them-truly.
Have a great day, and I will too.
