Sometimes, the internet can seem like a really shitty thing. If you've had a pretty crap day in general, it isn't the most pleasant thing to see that someone said someone crappy about you on facebook, a friend is completely nonchalant about your attempt to get in contact with them and no one has read your blog. Minor, insignificant little pieces of nothing that don't bother me one at a time but, when grouped all together, just have me thinking that the internet can be a cold and lonely place.
I always have the same pattern when I turn on my laptop; msn, facebook, blogspot and stumble. I log into msn and never talk to anyone because I have blocked half my friends and the other half have probably blocked me, yet I keep it on just in case.
Gone are the days that we only feel small and useless in real life, now we have the internet to help us dig ourselves deeper into our own pits of self-pitying despair. How easy it would be to just walk away from the screens and face life in 3d, talk to people face to face. But then, how do we hide the hurt when rejected for real? Better to stay, despondent but safe in our virtual prisons.
