The Quintessential First Blog Entry

Song: "New Slang" by The Shins

Why is it that everyone finds it necessary to start their blog with an entry discussing their motivations for blogging? "I'm working on my writing skills, and I thought a blog would be the perfect..." or "This is a place where I will record my thoughts on current political blah blah blah..." Seriously, I (and the rest of the world) don't care if you are working on your writing skills, just stimulate my needy mind already. Even worse are the people who explain what their blog will be about. Just post an entry and give us the benefit of the doubt that we'll figure out what you're talking about. Seriously, we're pretty smart (well, not most of us but I digress...). Anyway, by bitching about other people's first blog entries, I have just posted my first contribution to the already long list of shitty first blog entries. Nowhere to go but forward from here...

Mostly we just probably try to justify wasting, *ahem* spending time on something that doesn't seem to have an immediate purpose. Especially because it is public.
And, you are probably correct about the "not most of us" digression. Take a look around though, and you'll find some interesting stuff. Lots of crap, but bookstores and libraries are like that too.
