People are Strange

It seems to me as though a lot of the blog posts on here lately have been about relationships. I've also noticed that a lot of music through the years have been about relationships also. Oh, and books too. I wonder if they follow some kind of offshoot of the Pareto principle (80/20 rule - 80% of them about relationships, the other 20% about 'other' stuff). I wouldn't be surprised. What is the deal with people's fascination with relationships? Hell, I haven't read a friggin' blog post about one yet that's fascinated me. The thing that really strikes me as absurd is that so many of them detail problems people have with relationships. The absurd part is that, based on the blog posts alone, it seems as though people are infatuated with relationships even though, for the most part, they all suck to some degree. Now, I realize that all relationships don't suck. Disney ones always seem to turn out well. I just think it's funny that so much of our waking consciousness seems to be wholly devoted to...well, hanging out with someone and to what degree it sucks. Even people I know in real life seem to complain all the time about their significant other. People are so strange. They make no sense to me.

I think the journey is best made alone. I keep screwing that up though.
Relationships are basically about how much crap you can tolerate from the other person.

You won't see me bloggin' about relationships. Relationships are Hollywood, and I'm the anti-Hollywood candidate.
