I’ve felt like Antoine Roquentin for weeks now.
And I don’t mean in the whole existential, everything in the world is impeding my livelihood way; I mean in the randomly sick to my stomach way.
The late 70s and early 80s saw the birth of ASCII pr0n—a type of erotic art comprised solely of letters, numbers, and punctuation marks. ASCII pr0n was conceived by programmers, software engineers, and other kinds of people you would bully in high school and it circulated through emails, newsletters, and secret directories. Simple to make and easy to replicate on any screen, it was internet porn at its purest—a form of sexual expression made by geeks for geeks. These days it stands as a symbol of a dark but glorious period in hacker culture.
Enjoy ;)

This is why I love being the sober guy at parties.
Now I can make fun of everybody for all the stupid shit they did last night.
I actually don’t want to smoke or drink this summer.
I thought I wanted to near the end of school, but I was just being stupid. Maybe I was upset, maybe it just gave me something to say. Either way, it’s not what I really want to do. If I can’t have a good time while sober then those aren’t the people I should be around. With my real friends I can have a good time without that shit and not wake up the next day feeling like a scumbag.
Who knows if this will last, though. Lord knows how fickle I am. Shit, two weeks ago all I wanted was to get high and now I don’t want to touch the stuff.
Side note: I gave the whole, “Hang out with the rest of my senior class” thing a shot and it wasn’t that great. I’ll stick to my handful of friends and be on my merry way.
