So I have decided that I am not a good blogger. I know, I can hear you all(no one) screaming, WHAT?! What are you talking about?! This stuff is gold?! I know I know, but let me go through it, so you know why I'm terrible.
First, I dont really have any insightful thoughts or points to make. My life consists of video games, watching tv/movies, and playing with kids, like a kid. I don't really take anything seriously, and don't really feel passionate about any adult things. So what the hell am I going to write about?
Second, I see both sides of the coin on everything. Now those that know me know I like to argue. And my wife in particular would claim that I choose to disagree with her just to disagree. But really its cause I have no idea which side of an argument I really think is right, I just know that I will argue against your side. It's weird. If my wife and I ever watch something, if she says right afterward, "That was terrible," immediately I am like, "eh, it wasn't so bad." She says it was amazing, "Nah it was just alright." I am incapable of forming my own opinion without an opposing opinion to argue against. I know, I'm a psycho. Even if I finally do come up with some point to make, I immediately backtrack away from it: Plastic surgery is terrible--well, actually there are probably a lot of people who it really helps; That football player should never get to play again for what he just did--well actually it was in the heat of the moment and what about giving second chances; so on and so on.
Third, I have no confidence. I have actually written several blog posts but simply trashed them because I thought they were terrible. It's weird because I know no one really reads my blog, so why would I care that much? I don't know. It's the same thing with my writing. As soon as I finish a chapter/paragraph/sentence I am immediately critiquing it and thinking it's terrible. So I get all these ideas for the weekly blog post in my head, then immediately think it's not good enough, or that I don't have enough relevant thoughts on that topic to compile an entire post on it. You might think this would lead to only my best work created, but no, it just means no work gets created.
And there it is, three strikes and I am out. Obviously the only time anything gets done writing-wise is when I am drinking. They do call it liquid confidence. So the TLDR of this post is that I am a coward with nothing important to say to I shouldn't be blogging.
Even now I am trying to argue myself out of posting this. Why would you try to convince your audience not to read your blog? Maybe I will just stick to reviewing all the tv shows I consume. But even then I know that I tend to like everything, so I am a terrible critic. I have no sense of movie (inside joke). Anyway I am off to slam my head against the wall trying to write another chapter in my terrible fantasy romp(give up in five minutes an play a new video game).
