Something about this song feels overwhelmingly white to me, even more so than most of Ed Sheeran's singles...
There is an art to making nonsense that is actually nonsense, and I'm trying to figure out that art.
When people want "random", they usually actually mean "nonsense". So that's why "banana monkey cheese" seems to work when it's no longer actually random.

My name is Arden, and after a few days of thinking I’ve decided that I’m going to ruin video games.
I’m going to be doing everything in my power to destroy them completely. Walking simulators about feelings and emotions as far as the eye can see! Guns that shoot kisses! Lady characters that aren’t designed to cater to the whims of straight men! I’m hiding loving queer couples in every treasure chest instead of new armor. Every game will now be required to have at least one section that can be described as “too” personal. Fuck, if I’m feeling really bold, I might even throw some non-white characters into a game or two! I’ll magically replace every copy of every big-budget first person shooter with either Gone Home or Dear Esther and listen to the agitated shrieks of gamers.
Non-men have been “ruining” games for a long time, of course, by virtue of existing and trying to make the medium and the spaces around it more inclusive and less festering garbage. I’m just owning up to it now, so there can be no doubt: I’m here to ruin games. The space gamers have carved out is broken and vile, and I’m done with it. This is not their hobby anymore, it is our art.
I’m ruining video games! Join me! Make a personal story in Twine, nothing pisses gamers off more than interactive fiction sharing experiences that don’t cater to them! Make something in RPG Maker! You don’t even need to put combat in it! Make a dating sim or a visual novel in Ren’Py! Ruining games is easy, I know you can do it too!

Could be! Where my parents live in Illinois, the houses all have alleys just like that behind them, and they're public space. That's where you put the garbage cans for the garbage truck to pick up, anyway.
you know im kinda in a weird place in regards to the things that nerdy people in general are interested in
because when i was younger i really wanted to be involved in these things but i couldn't, i wanted to watch anime but i had dial-up up until late into high school and no way to rent things, i wanted to play video games but i had a lousy computer and couldn't afford them anyways, i was too awkward to make friends with the nerdy people at school, ect.
and now i'm an adult and i have my own money and i'm not as awkward as i was and I can finally get involved with these things and
NES games are interesting because they come from a period where people weren't quite sure how to make a videogame, or how one should work, and that's fascinating.

I've given thought to switching back to Firefox for a couple reasons
Even with Chrome 37's improved text rendering, Firefox's text still looks better on Windows
And the Android version of Firefox really does feel faster than the Android version of Chrome for me

but seriously will people think less of me for switching to firefox
but seriously will people think less of me for switching to firefox
i worry they will
well
if they do, that means that they are the sort of people who will think less of other people based on what non-IE internet browser they are using
which basically means that they are roughly on par with the sorts of people who hang out in the comments sections on tech websites, that is to say they are barely even worthy of contempt

Higher-grade nonsense can actually choose to look like a proper sentence. Stealth nonsense, one might call it. Perhaps let's use a mad lib format.
reference sentence: "The cow jumped over the dog."
structure: article noun verb-with-tense preposition article noun
A staple hacks on the smell.
The worry will mess up into each finger.

I don't care if nobody has cared about either of those since 2010, I still think it's cool.
How about you? What's going on in your world?

Some to misery are born,
Every morn and every night
Some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to endless night.
We are led to believe a lie
When we see not thro' the eye,
Which was born in a night to perish in a night,
When the soul slept in beams of light.
God appears, and God is light,
To those poor souls who dwell in night;
But does a human form display
To those who dwell in realms of day.
YOU SEE?
YOU PEOPLE SEE WHAT I HAVE TO PUT UP WITH ON A DAILY BASIS?!?!?
THE SHAME!
THE INDIGNITY!
