I'm sick of this ... EVERY GOD DAMMED TIME I download something, no matter what it is, no matter how big or how small, or how "innocent" the file might be.

Firstly, why is it that more often than not, when you want to download a file, the only link available is for a downloader to download the file you want?  These often will download a ton of other crap you don't need if you're not paying attention.

If downloaders don't mislead you into downloading stuff you don't want, modern installers will certainly try and mislead you into installing things you don't want.  When I run the "installer" for what I downloaded, there is a whole bunch of other stuff I DON'T NEED that gets installed along side with what I want.  In most cases I can choose to not install that other stuff, but more often than not, it's so cunningly done, that when I click that "next" button in the installer, I accidentally install that other junk, thinking that I'm actually installing what I want.  So, after I install my software, or even if it's just something like a self extracting "zip" file I get a ton of other crap I don't need as well.

It wouldn't be so bad if would just stop at that but nooooooooooooo, it can be much worse.  It can install mal-ware, stuff that puts ads all over your computer, messes up your web-browser and I'm not just talking about changing your homepage and search engine, sometimes it will put up fake pop ups saying that you need to update your software and there's nothing you can do to get rid of it.  For instance, on one of my computers, I cannot access ANY website without a "Flash Update" page coming up, this page is fake, and will mislead you into downloading even more bogus software. My flash player IS up to date but this still happens.

Lastly, when there is some software I want, unless I have an ad-blocker installed in my browser, there is always a huge ad on the download padge, and so many times I have been mis-lead into downloading the wrong file, thinking that the ad is the link for the thing I actually wanted.

Why can't downloads be simple again? I don't want useless stuff to be downloaded or installed alongside with the things that I actually want.  I don't want my homepadge changed, I don't want my search engine changed. I don't want anything taking control of my browser.  All I want is just a simple direct link to the file I want and nothing else.

Halloween is stupid

I'll just keep it short, Halloween sucks, everything changes, I don't like change.  I don't know why everyone goes so mad for ghosts, vampires and suchlike, it's stupid.  Everywhere I go I see this stupid shite around this time of year, even in some of my games everything changes to be haloween themed.

Winter Sucks, even though it's not quite here yet.

Here's another thing about the world that sucks ... Winter!  Winter is the absolute WORST season of the entire year.  I know it's not quite here yet, but Summer's over and Winter is on it's way.

BRING BACK SPRING AND SUMMER DAM IT!

If I could emigrate to another country where it doesn't get so dam cold, I would.  That's one of the things I LOATHE about Winter, it's freaking cold, I HATE COLD WEATHER, when it's cold out, I don't want to leave the house, I practically hibernate in Winter, only coming out once in a while to empty the trash.  At least Mum does the shopping most of the time, so I don't have to do that to often, it's HORRIBLE to have to go out in the cold.  You can't go out for long walks or bike rides because it's too dam cold, cannot have a barbeque because it's too dam cold, cannot have fun at the beach (even though I don't care much for that anyway) because it's too dam cold, cannot go out and have any of the fun that you can have in Summer because Winter's too dam freaking cold!  I don't like to have to put on 15 extra layers of clothing just so I don't die of hypothermia as soon as I step outside.

Winter has less daylight than Summer, I like natural light more than man-made light, I never turn lights on until it's absolutely necessary, plus I like to save energy.  In Summer it's not much of a big deal but in Winter I have to have lights and heat on all the time, I am a late riser, late to bed, late to rise, especially in Winter, because in Winter there is just nothing worth getting up for. In the middle of Winter I wake up pretty much the same time as the sun sets.

And let's not forget daylight savings, putting the clocks back one hour, apparently to give an extra hour of daylight.  That makes no sense at all, if this is supposed to save daylight, then why would you put the clocks back one hour so that the sun sets an hour earlier?  What was Ben Franklin smoking when he came up with that idea?  If anything the clocks should be put FORWARD one hour, not backward.

Lastly, in Winter everything is bare and lifeless, in Autumn (aka fall) it looks like everything is dieing, and in Winter everything is dead, it's so bleak and depressing, sometimes it makes me feel like Spring and Summer will never return and killing myself would be the only way to end my suffering. I'm not going to kill myself because I have too much to do, but these Winters are driving me mad, every year I get pushed further and further towards the edge, one day it will be too late.

Another thing is we don't celebrate Christmas, so for me, Christmas day is just a nother cold, depressing, dark, lifeless dreary day.

I'm going to be depressed until around the end of March.  I can't wait for the Winter solstice, you know why? Because from that moment on I know the days will be getting longer and the nights getting shorter.  Even more so I can't wait for when daylight savings ends, everything will start getting better,  temperatures start to rise, everything will be coming back to life and I'll see colours again!

I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!
I HATE WINTER!

I''m baaaaaaack!

Yes I know it's been a long long long long long long long long long long long long long long long time since I posted anything here, to be honest until today I had forgotten all about this blog.  Anyway in one of my recent YouTube comments I found a link to this:

http://cwckiforums.com/threads/cooldudeclem.1876/

The link will take to to a blog where people are saying some very nasty things about me. Don't take anything they say seriously, they make up random lies & nonsense about me (and other people too), then they try to back it up with evidence they've collected, but twist the facts, emphasizing the negative things while never giving any of the many positive things a single mention.

This is a website that makes fun of "lolcows", of which apparently I am one.  What's a lolcow you ask?  It's someone who doesn't conform to the way the rest of the world is.  According to the sub-human douche-bags who post on this site, If you are even the slightest bit different to everyone else, then you're considered a freak who everyone should poke fun at.  Of course this is all BS but that's what everyone on that site thinks.  Quite frankly I am shocked, appalled and DISGUSTED that this site exists, not just because it insults me, but other people too.

I just don't get it, I mean, for instance I think Bronys and Furrys are unusual, but I don't make blogs to bash them now do I?  NO! I respect other people no matter what they like to do as long as it doesn't hurt anyone physically or otherwise.   Anyway on one page I found the long lost link to my blog so now I can start blogging again.

I am different, I will admit that, I don't like to do drugs, smoke, swear (well the major swears anyway), roam with gangs or party all night to annoy the neighbors.

Many people think I am against first person shooters, that's not entirely true.  While it is true that I  don't like games such as Call of Duty and Halo, the reason is not so much the violence, it's the fact that everything looks too REALISTIC. Team Fortress 2 is an FPS with plenty of violence and I love it!  CoD and suchlike look too real while TF2 has a cartoonish look to it and is just generally more fun to play anyway.  The reason why I like a lot of the older games aswell is simply because they don't look real, they take place in worlds entirely different to this one.  You can't escape reality if the made up world your playing in looks like reality itself.

I'm just gonna come straight out and say this and I don't care what those assholes at cwiki say.  The perfect life for me would not be on this planet that's for sure.  Sonic's world would be real, I would be living on Mobius, which is Sonic's planet, I would be about 12 again, no-one would ever age, I would be friends with Sonic, Tails and the others.  That would be perfect for me.  I never grew up inside, I am just a child in the wrong body and the wrong universe.

Anyway to wrap things up, I am still going to make YouTube videos despite what people on that Crapwiki say.  I made my YouTube channel and I can make videos all dam day.
