In Which Boredom Reigns Supreme

[ceasetoexist]

You know, I tried watching the television today, only to remember just how bad it sucked. Seriously, there's nothing but happy crap on and, I'll tell you, not too interested in that. I'd have gone to the library, but I pretty much read most of the stuff they have in the kids section and there's pretty much little to nothing in any of the other sections friggin' worth anything.

So I was thinking: a lot of you people probably came from some interesting places, or did some interesting things, or know some interesting people, or yada-yada-yada. Basically, I'll cut to the chase: tell me about the places your from or the people you know, cause I'm bored as can be and I'll pretty much take anything as a way to entertain myself. You want a story in return? Fine, I can do that; there's a lot of crazy junk I've seen.

But c'mon. Entertain me. I'm bored here.

Hey, you're the crazy doctor or nurse or whatever I talked to a bit on the phone during the Soviet schtick, right? 

There's something I want to ask you.

[ does that mean no Taco Bell? man, he just died a little inside. ]

I don't remember acting like you were stupid.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

"Duh" implies you thought I was stupid for not knowing whatever friggin' Taco Bell is.

What's the deal, anyway? You could probably just buy stuff to make a taco.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

It does? [ I learned something today. Apparently the word "duh" offends people. Try not to use it that often. ] Sorry about that, dude.

Well, it's.. not the same? I mean, you've never tried it so you wouldn't know.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

What do you think "duh" meant? It's a retort, at least to a point.

[Probably not in this case, but he doesn't give a shit. Asshole may have been making fun of him anyway.]

Okay, how is it different then? I mean, home-made junk is usually going to be better than processed crap. Not that I mind fast food THAT much.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Well, maybe a filler. It's also a rock band if you Wiki and IMBd it.

[ it's not that. taco bell is v. serious to him ]

Well, some fast food places only have certain stocks that only they can make. Like how McDonald's has McNuggets and Sonic has Coneys and Burger King has those retarded crowns. Some things just can't be homemade.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

If I did what now?

Yeah, okay, whatever. But the thing is that even when they give their items names, they're still pretty much the same damn thing. THe names are a gimmick to try and make themselves look better.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Huh.. I guess you don't have internet either. Nevermind.

That is true.. But I don't really know how to make tacos myself, though. You think the not parents can cook things I'll tell them to?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Well, I had the internet back at home. It was pretty cool, if it didn't take so long to load and didn't cut off use of the phone when you used it.

[Kid's from 1995, Clyde; even though he's a time traveler, he doesn't know ALL about your high-tech shit, though he's interested.]

...Huh. I dunno. Never really tried it, but maybe!

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Wow, really? Wait.. did you have dial up? Also, do you have a Facebook? [ not that he needs more friends noooo ]

[ 1995? Man, that's so long ago. Is he really interested? That almost sounds like a compliment. ]

If all we have to do is pretend like we're their kids then we oughta get what we want in no time! My not dad told me if I cleaned my room I could get ice cream.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

I...guess?

The hell's a Facebook?

Pfft. They're lying. That's what all parents do. They tell you they're going to give you something if you do it, then they don't deliver jack.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

It's.. a blog? I guess that's what it called. It's a site where you keep in touch with your friends from school and stuff.

Wait, so.. no ice cream?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Blog? [Still too new for him Clyde]

Oh. Well...no. I don't have one.

I dunno. I mean, it's worth a shot but don't cry like a little itty-bitty baby when you don't get crap.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Oh.

I haven't gotten my ice cream yet.. [ s-sniffle ] So I cleaned my not room for nothing, then?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Jesus, kid, quit crying.

Did you even tell your not parents or anything that you cleaned your room, or are you just magically hoping they'll notice.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

What? I didn't know about these rules. Is that how it works? Normally my real mom is the one always cleaning my room.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Meh, I don't usually give enough of a crap to clean my room unless my dad threatens me.

But yeah. They actually have to be let known. They can't just, like, psychically tell if you cleaned your room or not.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

Hey, thanks. I'll do that. How long have you been here anyway?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

About a week and a half.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

That long? Wow. And you must be really bored if you wanna know about the people here.

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Some of them are really interesting and weird. And hell yes I'm bored.

What's your name, kid?

[retypes.livejournal.com]

I guess.. I did just meet someone from the 1940's earlier today.

Clyde Donovan. And yours?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Yeah? Who was that?

Pokey Minch.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

This kid named Raivis. He's from Latvia and he drinks vodka when he's depressed.

Pokey, huh? Okay, I got a few questions to pass the time. Ah, ..where are you from? Country, states, cities; do you have that? What would you be doing right now if you weren't stuck in this place?

[godisachild.livejournal.com]

Haven't heard of him.

I'm from Onett, a town in Eagleland. Think of it as a...real nice version of America. Like all the crime and corruption? Pretty much gone. We have towns and cities and countries, but not really state divisions. Just countries as cultural dividers.

And if I wasn't here? Probably still traveling through time and space.

[retypes.livejournal.com]

He's actually pretty cool and he stutters a lot. Kind of like my friend Tweek minus the screaming.

A nicer version of America? Wow, that'd be sweet. If I had lived there maybe I wouldn't have to worry about it back home. It pretty much sucks in Colorado and everywhere in general, all the adults are idiots.

Is that all? [ well, whatever floats your boat~ ] Have you ever gone back to change things in the future?
