...except it totally wasn't the end

Things that aren't awesome but should be:

• Popular blogs. People start writing things in all the same way and it makes me feel like I'm suffocating. There's just a jbalinbiajfaness about it when people think they have actual readers. Good thing that's not me.
• The Titanic. This goes both ways. The cruise kind of sucked halfway through. And the movie was way too long. Now it has a certain allure and I have seen it a few times, but I still have to say that it's not awesome. Just depressing. Not in the love lost sense, but in the why did she waste her life pining away for him sense. EVERY NIGHT IN MY DREAMS? That would be creepy.
• Baby animals. They're cute in picture form. But in real life they take a lot of care, and then they grow up and that're not that cute and you still have to clean up after them.
• Leaves. They should be totally fun to play in, but not if you're afraid of caterpillars and worms and fungus. Like, if you get a big enough pile it should be awesome, but for it to get that big either you have to do a lot of work (and then a lot of cleanup work afterwards) or let it grow on its own and also grow questionable smells. Just saying. Not that awesome.
• Winter break being longer in college than in high school. Yay, high school graduates say, a longer break from school! No. Not if you are a twamp. School cannot resume fast enough. Break is approximately three weeks too long. Not awesome.
• Amusement parks. THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO AMUSE YOU. And then you spend half the time in line, and it's too hot or it's too cold and everything's overpriced and no one wants to do the same things. No thank you.
• Dinosaurs. Don't get me wrong, I think dinosaurs as an idea are really baller, they like terrorize the earth and they're all scary and green and mythic and whatnot. But awesome? I don't know. They kind of died off. Like, all of them, not just some of the species. And if they did still live, we probably wouldn't have survived, and we definitely wouldn't have all of this technology because we'd spend our resources on trying to kill the dinosaurs.

My next post will be way more interesting than either of these because it will contain both awesome and supposed-to-be awesome items, and it'll be like a quiz! But more awesome than sporcle.
