amberle (Amberle S Ferrian):
I've now discovered the Central America discuss meeting! Oh wow, I said at
first. I get to see what other peoples' .plan files are like! It made for
interesting and fun reading, if I didn't take it too seriously.
So that was good.
And then I notice that several users has some kind of automatic .plan update
so that the same .plan file would get posted to each daily update. It was
pretty boring to read those, but I figure, who cares?, since it's all in fun
anyway, and whoever doesn't want their .plan files posted can just ask to be
removed or just make their files non-world-readable, and that's that.
So that was good.
And then I notice that a lot of people bitched and complained about these
boring .plan files. I read a lot of nasty messages, and saw a lot of words
like "freedom of speech", and "rights", and "obnoxious", and "too damn long",
and "taking up disk space" and so forth tossed all over the place by flaming
uptight irate people who have forgotten that fun that shouldn't be taken too
seriously is supposed to be just that. I think to myself, don't these people
have anything better to do than complain about something so trivial? Are their
lives so bleak and boring that a trivial peeve in a trivial thing like the
Central America discuss meeting so earthshatteringly devastating that they have
to burn up energy and disk space flaming about it? Should Bill Jackson be
informed of this (if he isn't already), so he can write another one of his
famous editorials in the Tech about this? Are people at MIT this uptight?
So that wasn't so good.
I wonder if this is an example of why I want to leave MIT so much...
(Now THAT's good!)
