Surfing, fishing, eating

Everyone knows internet is an excellent place to kill time, especially during exams :D, and nothing's better than blogosphere (or my feed reader, for that matter) to do some good, varied reading. For instance, I was going through the archives of this blog, and only wondering at the average index of sentimentality of the girls of this world [:P], when I saw this post and the instantaneous index for not just girls, but even guys went up in a spike :P :P Point is, touching words (or movies, music etc...essentially "expression") makes even the most inert start feeling, and the sensitive crying!
It's nothing new, but it's still incredible, the power of dots of ink on a paper (or pixels on a screen) to evoke emotions in a perfectly unfeeling stranger. It's the power of something "artificially created" by another human being, something that's also a slave of the receptor's moods and sensory organs (and mind, is mind a sense organ? is mind an organ?) that is so immense, no wonder power of plain natural beauty and the perfectly natural miracle of life is too great to even begin to fathom and appreciate!

The writing bit also reminds me of this quiz I took eons ago, and that said I should become a film writer (rofl). These endless questionaires and all on net I tell you, I wonder who makes them. (And the countless ones on facebook!!!! Wat color heart are you? Are you a zombie? Mind blowing imagination!) Some of them are fun, some are pure stupidity, but I think they survive on their ability to feed curiosity and kill time. Sometimes, I like going back and finding permutations of answers that give certain solutions, till I find all the nodes and more or less the whole flowchart.

Blogosphere is an interesting read also because of the reactions that tag along with the posts, most delivered in semi-anonymously. So someone asks Keshi why is every third post of hers about sex and someone asks herwhy she doesn't write much about all the sex she has anymore and it sends me into fits of laughter. There is so much desperation out there in the world :P :P Shit, it must be hard to have your blog so widely read. Creepy.

There's the daily dose of poetry, and there's current affairs. IPL has also caused its share of turbulence in blogosphere, and not without reason. From cheerleaders to fan whines The best online timepass though, by far stays XKCD and its lesser cousins (phdcomics et al), including Kay's blog,. Check this one, and this:
