Wednesday #31 - I Get Really Sarcastic

So, yesterday I finished a class that I was taking online, called Foundations of Technology (anyone who has had to take this class may now groan), and one of the assignments for said class was make a blog that you post on at least once every day for a week, with each post trying to entertain, educate, persuade, control, or manage the other people taking the class. Now, I was pretty sick of this class by that time, so when I wrote that blog, I did several things:
     1. I didn't do it for a week. I wrote seven posts in one day, and altered the day that they were posted so it would seem as though I was posting once a day.
     2. I didn't care what I said, or how much I wrote.
     3. I put a high enough dose of sarcasm in that blog to kill a man at 50 yards (don't ask, even I'm not sure).
Now, since I know you all are intellectual people (I mean, come on. You read Across 53 Wednesdays. Of course you're smart), you'll probably get the jokes that I put into the blog. Here are all of the posts, collectively:

 Day 1

Helllllllllooooo FoT!! How's everyone doing out there? Is moodle treating you well? I sure hope so, because if it isn't, you make have trouble receiving a high school diploma, since this class is required for graduation!

But anyway, this is blog is solely created to meet the purposes of the assignment from Unit 5 Lesson 4 Extension, which states that I have to blog for a week so with the intent to either educate, entertain, control, persuade, or manage my class. Is it just me, or is it a little strange that 3 out of the 5 purposes given are based around the manipulation of others?

     Well, let's get started. Today, I'm going to control you... that's right, you heard me. Through this post, I'm going to control your body...

     Breath in and out, at the rhythm dictated by your emotions and level of activity.

     Continue to carry out whatever plans you had before I took control of you.

     Live your life as you see fit.

Now do as I command!!!

See you guys tomorrow.

Day 2

Welcome to Day 2 of someone spending 5 minutes typing because I have to learn about how to communicate with people, since I totally don't already have a blog that I've been running for more than half a year! I'm glad you could join me. Today, I'm going to persuade you...

    I really like eating nutrients, and I think that you should too. Nutrients are something that we all need, and would die without. I know you're probably thinking "Nutrients! HA! Only losers and weak people need nutrients!" To that I simply have to say "Wrong." Nutrients are necessary for you to do the masochist and neanderthal-esque activities you do everyday, person who I can assume also doesn't like reading and firing neurons. You can't run, jump, or ignore good health practices without the help of nutrients! If you try to, you'll probably end up dead.

See ya tomorrow. 

Day 3

Well, it's Day 3. My goal today is something very hard to do with many people of your age, fellow classmates: educate.

     That's right, learning. It's something that we all must do, or die non-noteworthy deaths after living a short and valueless life. Sure, you could argue that there are totally people who can escape the societal bonds of education, and make it in the world without cognitive action, and probably provide a list of people who fit the bill, but that doesn't mean that you can too. Let's look at the people who probably don't need to learn anything, but still live a happy life, shall we? Be ready to read, it's a super long list:

Rich people, who inherited their wealth, and have parents that don't care about their children enough to make them do something worth while.

That's it. Those are the only people who can live that kind of life style, and get off scott free. Remember that the next time you think: "I hate [insert class here]." If you act on that emotion, you'll die poor and hungry (and don't expect much help from the government).

See ya tomorrow.

Day 4

Hey guys, it's Day 4. We've made it to the halfway point! And it's Wednesday, which means I'll be working more on my actual blog, that posts on Wednesdays, so I kinda have to keep today brief. I will however, but putting a link to it right  here, so you can go over there, and maybe be entertained.

See ya tomorrow.

Day 5

Day 5, the writer is away for the beginning of the day, because he is taking his driving test, which, should he complete, will earn him a provisional driver's license, in the state of Maryland. You should be reading this, in a dry British accent. I don't know about you, but that makes things funny. I hope you were entertained.

See you tomorrow.

Day 6

Day 6, we're almost done... and I'm going to educate today.

Since you guys are taking a class with Frederick County Virtual School, I can assume that you live in Frederick County. Since you live in Frederick County, there's a chance that you'll go into the city of Frederick. If you do, go to the library, take the stairs to the second floor, walk towards the large windows, and go on terrace. Yes, there's a terrace at the library. Something I didn't know about until today. And I've been living here for more than a decade. It's a little sad.

See you tomorrow.

Day 7

We did it! It's Day 7! Finally! For those of you who don't know, yesterday was Christmas in July (it was the 25th), so belated Merry Christmas in July. Today, I'm going to persuade you, my fellow classmates, to complete your class work and pass this class. Imagine if you had to do an entire semester worth of this class. Think of the wasted time, the class that you could've taken, the thing that you could've learned. So, pass this class, don't waste $200, don't waste your summer, and don't waste your actual classes in high school, since they will teach you important things that will carry on throughout your life.

I won't see you tomorrow.

Yep. And the best part about this whole thing is that the teacher found it funny too. And I'm almost entirely certain that she recognized exactly how sarcastic it was. 

Anyway, that's all I've got for you this week, but if you want more, check out my YouTube channel, where I put up vlogs on the irregular. Other than that, there isn't much else to say...

All That Is Gold Does Not Glitter

All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.
From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.
J.R.R. Tolkien
