I Blog Therefore YOU Are...*

posted by Mark at 5:44 PM

Or alternately, if a blogger falls in the woods and no one's there to read about it, did it really happen, at all? Or even more alternately, if I blog and you comment are you anything more than part of my blog.

Am I absorbing you? Are you feeling less you and more me?

Thoughtful questions?

Should you even answer that? Was it a ploy? A trap? Did you see how I just threw it in there flippantly like it didn't matter? Maybe that was to coax just a few words from the tips of your fingers. A "whoot" or a casual "lol".

But then I'll have you. You're mine.

Or even more alternately, still. What if you only exist as an extension of this blog? If you were to stop coming, maybe you'd simply start to fade away.

Disappear.

I'm not saying that would happen. I don't make casual threats. I'm not even making sense.

Or am I?

Sometimes when I'm sitting here in this room I wonder if the internet is even on, or if I'm imagining the comments. If I'm creating personalities for your screen names. If I'm making up your screen names.

Am I?

I'll combo you up and go with
"That's deeply retarded, man."

Poor Mark. The whole book release thing has fried your synapses, hasn't it?

it's ok mark.... all you need to do is get back on your meds... remember, better living through chemistry!!!

Wow. This phenomena could be construed as being similar to quantum physics and particle manifestation. You know, you theorize about a particle long enough and *poof* it eventually shows up?

Or you should probably go find that nice nurse at the station down the hall and see what she can do about your meds...

I don't think your editor intended for you to use the copy of your book he sent for rolling papers.

Shroedinger's Cat is me. I always say we are each the center of our own universes, and in my universe you are merely a spear carrier. It tends to piss people off, which is the point, lol.

I think it might be more accurate to say "I blog therefore you choke to death laughing."
