Lost = Me Dead
I have had the opportunity to watch the TV show Lost recently. I really like this show, however I had a realization wile watching it. If I was on this island with the other plain crash survivors I would not last a month, I would die (probably horrifically) if I were on this show. Now, I do not claim to be an outdoor expert and I have no training or special skills that would help me survive on this island. But that’s not why I would die. I would die because I don’t have an interesting (or tragic) back story. Because of this fact I would not be one of the main actors and therefore I would be killed just to remind the viewer that this island is dangerous. Death by lack of back story.
This is in no way to be seen as a cry for help however, I like being boring. I like spending most of my time alone; I like not having a lot of issues or drama. This policy serves me well, unless I crash on a daemon island north of Australia with 42 other survivors, then I’m done for.

Laziness
This is not a post about my laziness but the laziness of the two people (and I use that term lightly) that should be posting here. So this is my post to call them slackers and have something on the screen when people make a wrong turn and end here.
