I know it was a bad year for a lot of people, and I'm not saying they should completely forget about or ignore the bad things that happened. But some people are taking it too far and blaming the whole year for it, and I'm like, "Okay, you know that good things happened in 2016 too, right? And that 2016 is not the only year in which celebrities have died?" If it's possible to be prejudiced against days of a year, that's what they're doing about the good days in 2016.

(Actually it's more than just "some" people who do that. If it WERE just "some", I wouldn't be so annoyed by it.)

Hearing people talking about only the bad things that happened makes me feel like I'm not allowed to talk about or enjoy anything good that happened this year (or that if I do, I have to constantly preface it with "2016 was a bad year but..." or something.) In fact, even the fact that you told me "Well, 2016 was a pretty crappy year for a lot of people..." makes me feel like I'm not allowed to think about the good things that happened this year. :(


For some reason I tend to get annoyed if people constantly talk about the same news story for a really long time, even if it's a serious one (that's why I got sick of people talking about the swine flu [which I STILL always type as "swine flue" and have to backspace] constantly in 2009, for instance). I don't know why. ("Constantly" is the key word, though - I'm talking about like if over a quarter of all the conversations I hear are about it.)

It's hard to describe this journal in just a few paragraphs... but I'll try

Just an autistic guy born in 1993 (hence the username) who's had this journal since I was 14. Has trouble phrasing things well especially in earlier entries, so keep that in mind.

My interests have fluctuated in the 17 years since I've had this journal, but the following has remained constant:
- I like Mario games (mainly the platformers, Mario Kart, Mario Party) and Super Smash Bros.
- I like Garfield
- I like Homestar Runner
- I like Enya
- And I've always loved the idea of wacky crossovers between ANY of my interests, whether it's in the form of a short-lived webcomic in 2006-2008, a short-lived backwards lyrics site in 2008, writing down weird dreams in 2009-2011, playing Tomodachi Life a lot in 2014-2016, or what most of my posts are about these days: playing around with Character.AI starting in 2023. I still can't believe I'm actually in a world where an AI of Enya can talk to AIs of Mario or Garfield or even my favorite obscure characters like Mary O. from Super Mario Maker. :O
