Gah!

If I come across another blog about a parent blogging about their child's miracles, or see another status update about what somebody's child is doing I'm going to vomit. Don't get me wrong, I can understand you're proud of your offspring, but seriously, people have been having babies as long as there world has had human beings.

I like to find interesting blogs that aren't too selfabsorbed and selfanalytical, but rather culture observing and questioning. That calls on people with agile minds to relieve my boredom and slentriant way of being, sort of like a recepie where someone sticks a frozen hotdog in a meatloaf. Anecdotes about kids doesn't do it as the full background of thoughts. Misunderstand me correctly, if the child does something fun, by all means share, but does the world really need to know what colour poop it had this morning? And then, taking on the bigger perspective, isn't this taking away from the children themselves? What if the child grows up to never want to share a personal detail online, ever? That choice has already been taken away. So, please, show your children some respect and assume that it will have some integrity later in life.

As a whole it seems that blogs and websites are becoming more streamlined, perhpas it's just that my intrests vary and I'm too lazy to find new watering holes. So, could someone please make something in any shape or form that takes a little from a lot and skips all the stuff I'm not really that interested in?

Indivuals aren't that interesting unless you actually know them and what's going on in their lives, stranger's kids aren't that interesting either, unless you love them and care for them, books are interesting, observations and conclusions are interesting, so are movies to an extent, history, sure. Turtles wearing backpacks and skipping on lilly pads - sure win.

EDIT: I'd also like to add that I have a tendency to end up on way too many political blogs, so if you share intrests with me, it seems you're either a mother who reads while your child sleeps or a political activist. I hope that doesn't say too much about me.
