You're not an expert

Thank you Al Gore. Thank you for the internet.
The Web
The Information Superhighway
The Net
The World Wide Web

I actually don't care who invented it or propelled it to such popularity. I don't really care what java means.
or HTML
I dont care who invented Napster, Limewire, AudioGalaxy, Kazaa or any other illegal mp3 sharing site. I don't care what mp3 actually stands for.
I don't care why Craigslist is free. I don't care who owns it or really how it works.

I do care that I have The Internet and really can't live without it. This is the information age. I look stuff up when I need answers and I am not going to the Encyclopedia Britannica unless its followed up with DOT COM.
.NET
or .ORG

Thank you, The Internet, because now I don't have to alphabetize shit anymore. Heck, this blog program even tells me when I spell things inkorecktly . There is a little red squiggly line under inkorecktly telling me to rethink my spelling, but it left squiggly alone.

Origin:
1830–40; b. squirm and wriggle
Thank you The Internet.

The Internet is amazing. Think of all the stuff it does for us.

You get the picture. The Internet is useful. Its easier than ever to use and its easier than ever to access. I can get me some interweb (red squiggle) while at work, home or with friends.
I have my Blu-Ray player downloading movie extras for "Avatar".
I have my Xbox connecting to multi-party online games for trash talk with 12 year olds.
The laptop is easily explainable.
My phone downloads apps, sends emails and allows for the all important FB status update on the go.

Here's the thing. I don't have a degree.
I have no certification.
No formal training.
No license.
No Seal of Approval
and No document to attest to my knowledge of or usefulness to the community.

I have electricity, a laptop and a steady internet conncection. That's all that qualifies me to be blogging today. That's all most of us have. That's all you need to be out there and affecting and infecting society. 95% of The Internet's content isn't cited. 85% isn't true. OK OK OK. I made that last part up, but alot of it is just out there unchecked and that's my point. You can publish all kinds of malarkey on the Web.

There are idiots out there reviewing products and movies. People make comments on blogs and youtube videos. Some of its justified, but if you spend $70 on a bike at Wal-mart, it will be a piece of garbage. Don't bother giving it 1 star and telling me the components are cheapo. You're not an expert and I know that because you bought your bike at F-ing Wal-mart. They buy the cheapest items, sell them at the lowest prices and hire people for about $3 an hour. Shut up.

@podracer012 - you don't need to point out when some 7 year old girl is dancing off the beat. Are you psycho? Do you not have a soul? That is not The Internet that Al Gore envisioned. You would be the first Star Wars nerd to know how to dance, but not the first to look at videos of 7 year olds. Podracer012 is a pedophile.

I hope that people find what I write interesting. That's my goal. I am trying to be entertaining. Putting yourself out there for others to criticize is not really that easy. I don't pretend to think that everyone will find this stuff funny like I do, but I would be alright with me if everyone did.

Think before you hit publish or send or submit. Think carefully. And think one thing.

Just because you have an opinion, it doesn't make you right. That's My first PSA
