OKAY...so obviously, the "SIC of the day" gimmick lasted all of three days. (I could insert some bullshit about "taking a week off for Christmas," like most bloggers/respected writers do so that they don't have to worry about anything from December 19th to January 2nd, but I'm not a lazy fuck, so yeah.) That's impressively awful, even by my standards. So I've switched it up to the "SIC of the week" in order to make this a more realistic goal.
Also...I've read over the first few things I've written, and I hate them all and want to change almost all of them. They just don't reflect what I want to do at all. I've slowly come to learn that I began this blog with the intention to "try to understand why I feel the way I do about certain things in society," and from those first few essays it does seem as though I am working toward that goal. However, I come off sounding like a whiny emo kid, which isn't like me at all. I feel like I went overly emotional, in trying to sound important and make the blog "sound professional" or something. This goes against the point of what I'm trying to do, because if I contort my words and sound like a pretentious dick (which I'm not), then I'm not really expressing how I feel, which (again) is the point of this blog. Henceforth, I will make a conscious effort to put "content" above "form" in my essays, which will resume tomorrow.
As for the "SIC of the week," I present to you the most exciting two minutes the average movie geek has had in months: The Dark Knight Rises official trailer. Enjoy.
