Those words don't belong together, what are you doing! And yet it fills you will a feeling that the author intended, thus being poetry as a joke. problem is if everyone says the same joke, it gets kinda... old... hence why you should express yourself as much as you can. I wonder if fewer people are "alternative" these days because they all started hanging out on the internet and trying to differentiate themselves amongst each other instead of amongst "normal people"?

Maybe it's a good idea to set up on your parents computer, just in case you have to hide out there for a couple months. Maybe it's a good idea to download wikipedia, just in case.
