On Blink 182's "indefinite hiatus."
-Maria's away message states that Blink 182 broke up.-
sporkd inc: they didn't break up
sporkd inc: they're on a hiatus
CisforCookie155: really?
CisforCookie155: that's sad
CisforCookie155: they should break up
sporkd inc: haha
CisforCookie155: or maybe their hiatus will make them realize that they cannot pull off being serious and, if they want to continue making music, they need to go back to making pointless, immature songs and run around as naked midgets.
sporkd inc: hahaha
CisforCookie155: they were much more bearable then.
sporkd inc: i never listened to them
sporkd inc: i listened to the beatles
CisforCookie155: nice
CisforCookie155: i only heard their singles through others
CisforCookie155: and found them okay, but highly typical and rather boring
sporkd inc: yeah, i remember nikki liking them when she moved here
sporkd inc: and that's about it
CisforCookie155: haha
CisforCookie155: they need to realize that no matter how hard they try, no one can take them seriously
sporkd inc: a lot of people do
CisforCookie155: okay, scratch "no one" and replace it with "people who know good music"
sporkd inc: hahaha
CisforCookie155: what excatly is an "indefinite hiatus"?
sporkd inc: they're on a break until they decide not to be
CisforCookie155: that's dumb.
CisforCookie155: couldn't you just say "hiatus" then?
sporkd inc: sure
CisforCookie155: then why bother with the "indefinite"?
sporkd inc: ask them
sporkd inc: i certainly don't know
CisforCookie155: gosh. some people.
sporkd inc: well, actually, hiatus implies coming back soon
sporkd inc: so they're just saying they don't know when they're coming back i guess
CisforCookie155: not really
CisforCookie155: it's just a break
CisforCookie155: i mean, by definition
CisforCookie155: but over time, perhaps, it has begun to imply a short break
sporkd inc: yeah
CisforCookie155: these comments on the blink 182 website are really amusing
sporkd inc: haha
CisforCookie155: OHMIGOD they have a petition
CisforCookie155: and the intro has SO MANY typos it's disgusting
sporkd inc: well, if rufus wainwright took an indefinite hiatus, you'd sign a petition too
CisforCookie155: no, i wouldn't.
CisforCookie155: it's entirely his decision.
CisforCookie155: i'd be happy with the music he's already made
CisforCookie155: but i wouldn't go signing a petition to attempt to change his mind. it's completely selfish and ignores basic human rights.
sporkd inc: well, i guess everyone's obviously not as intelligent as you
CisforCookie155: was there sarcasm there?
sporkd inc: exasperation, more like
CisforCookie155: ooh, excellent.
sporkd inc: oh, i know.
CisforCookie155: i love exasperating people.
sporkd inc: you do a good job
CisforCookie155: thank you. i pride myself in my work.
sporkd inc: i'm sure you do.
What a lovely few days it has been. Excellent weekend: Ashton on Friday, a really amusing dance class on Saturday, Elizabeth and Phoebe on Sunday into Monday. Many, many Geoffs added to the MySpace. Then today was another good day. Nothing in english. Easy chemistry test. First half of orchestra was nice. Second half was spent in the sub-zero temperatures of the auditorium. Which kind of sucked. But then silly arguing with Mikaela about which one of us is the man in our married life. Decided that we're just a gay couple. Nikki gave me the Andrew W.K. cd. I had the most exciting shower experience of my life whilst listening to it. It was Katie's birthday. I gave her food. Went through the college spam. Found out about the whole Blink 182 fiasco. Was amused. And happy. Did all my homework. Including stuff that's due Thursday. Which is amazing. 'Cos I didn't procrastinate. Which is a first in my high school life.
Tomorrow should be good. Orchestra concert. Which kind of sucks. 'Cos we kind of suck. But major Tracey time. Which is always exciting. Especially 'cos we haven't had major Tracey-and-Maria time in a long while.
And there's only 18 school days until Spring Break.
That's a very, very pleasant thought.
