I think Batty says it best when he opines, “Well **** them then!” On to weird schoolgirl anime (and sure why not?) and then a review of Thou's The House Primordial and the new Kanye West. Feel like I've been on a trip after that, and I don't even do drugs! And if that wasn't enough for you, there's ICP too!

Does everyone think my journal is this weird? I genuinely don't understand why it's so weird.

It’s... experimental

And the southern states is like, seriously- I’m proud of it-

It’s all a team effort but yeah those are my babies

OK that's fair enough. I guess if I put enough effort into them my "Listen With Trollheart", "Trollheart Reviews the Music You Hate" and "Trollheart's Wonderful World of Prog" may in time be considered sort of journal-lite for me. Maybe. Hey, as long as you enjoy doing it, right?

It's weird in that "We are such crazy chicks, we make grimaces and stick our tongues out in our selfies" way.

I'm not some hotshot reviewer with an audience. I'm just some faceless guy on the internet with no credibility. It's cool that Hawk finds some joy in writing journals outside of there being people who appreciates reading it, but that's not the case for me. I know for a fact that I have very little in common with anyone musically, so it's kinda important to realize that I'm mostly just talking to myself, and that's not very meaningful, is it? Totally a rhetorical question. Of course it's meaningless!

I'm not sure how many hits I'm going to get either with my new journal. Ori is about the only other garage rock head here and he's usually busy being a lounge lizard. Anyhow, just because they may not comment doesn't mean they're not reading your journal. I always check out Hawk and Blank just to see what they're up to though I've only commented on Hawk's occasionally and I don't think I commented on Blank's at all.

But why? My journal is just me saying and talking about whatever plops into my mind. If you took all your journals and placed all your posts into one journal, wouldn't it be just a random series of posts?

So why is it weird?

As long as it's entertaining, who cares if it's weird?

The Batlord 07-05-2018 02:54 PM

It's not you just try way too hard to say **** that looks random.

Like I say to everyone, it's all about the views. Not that many people comment, but to see who's reading, check your views.

Cos you appear to be talking to yourself and having weird conversations, most of which make no sense. Nothing wrong with it, but it certainly is weird. With a capital Weird.
