Zoot Suit Riot

Some members of this blogging community seem to have a false misconception regarding the face behind this blog. I may come off as a friendship-starved loner. There is some truth in that. Yes I am a loner. The thing that people seem to have difficulty understanding is the fact that I am a loner BY CHOICE. I enjoy the solitude. I did not start blogging with the intention of "making friends" like many of you bloggers seem to be doing. The last thing I could ever want is to make friends with people in a community that was meant to represent and preserve anonymity. Yes I am friendly. Yes I might add you to my MSN messenger. Yes I might respond to your comments and chat with you every now and then. I might suggest we hang out together sometime even. That does not make me want to be your BFF (Best Friend Forever à la Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie). There is nothing I loathe more than tooty-fruity type relationships. If I wanted friends I would've made that sort of relationship in school, or I could've gone to a party or did some volunteer work or something involving a load of socializing. Please, spare me.

I am very comfortable having this sort of detachment. Analyze and interpret any which way you want, I honestly don't give a hoot. But I'm sure you can already tell. I have plenty of "acquaintances" with whom I occasionally hang out, and I'm more than content with the way I live my life. I don't need to have people stuck to me at the hip, nor do I need to walk around with a phone surgically attached to my ears to come off as normal, or be undeserving of your pity. LOL. Too bad some people feel the need to pity me, as if the "state of exile" I'm in was forced upon me or something, and they feel the need to "help me with my problem by hooking me up", or even "do me a favor by talking to me". Get over yourselves :)

I hope this has set the record straight and cleared things up :) You can now direct your sympathy-fest towards some other "poor, helpless loser" person. I have no interest in taking part or being part of these childish grade-school shenanigans.
