Diary of a Generic Thread™

Monday

Dear diary,

I've just made my debut in the GD forum. Like all new threads, I'm a little nervous. What if nobody likes me?

Wish me luck!

Dear diary,

I had just been created when a very exciting event happened : my very first edit! I was a little too bold. Luckily, not too many had the time to see my faux pas. It is a little quiet I must say.

Dear diary,

It's been five minutes and a couple of seconds, and barely five people have looked at me. I'm beginning to think it was a big mistake to make my debut in the middle of the night, when I thought the hip posted.

Dear diary,

Someone just replied to me! Well, sort of.. It's a little cartoon and it's supposed to be saying "no". What for? Maybe I'm a little too plain. I hear the Org is very sophisticated.

I am waiting for one of the big posters that everyone likes, but I guess Christopher will have to do.

Dear diary,

I fell asleep, no doubt exhausted by the excitement of being a thread debutante. As you know, I was a little apprehensive, as few if any posters seemed to care. I checked out my competition, and they all had VERY tacky and crowd-pleasing titles.

With all this worrying, I had a nightmare. I dreamt that I was sinking to the bottow of Page Two, into the abyss of the GD forum. Sinking threads were marning me of what lies beyond Page 3 -- "unspeakable horrors -- threads no one wants to read or even recall! Threads with less than 20 views and three pathetic replies! Threads that were locked in their prime, now condemned to sink with no possibility of bumping ever!"

When I woke up, I was SO relieved to discover I was still on Page one. "They love me", I thought, "they really love me!" Even "Christopher" said "I love you" to me, a simple, unpretentious thread!

I'm truly heartened. I know I'm not a giant "Post a X about the poster above you" smashing success, but I'm a start. Baby I'm a Start... should be my theme song.

Dear diary,

I am trembling with fear. A moderator just showed up. What if he thinks I have no topic to speak of? Or that I belong in the Price.Org Discussion Ghetto? So far, he has not indicated or signaled any displeasure. For the new threads out there, a "moderator" is a lot like an omnipotent Chinese mandarin. He can make or break you. It's always a good idea to stay on his good side.

Dear Little Generic Thread,

Here is your future.

You will get some recognition for originality...from me anyway. biggrin

After that - a couple/few posts... you may even flame! mr.green

However, sadly... you are doomed to die a slow agonizing death, as all threads do (even the very popular "who's the most popular orger" threads have died...eventually). sad

As for the diary format... I like it, but alas, dear Anne Frank... you have no worries.

Dear diary,

Holy cow! The mod just asked me to justify my existence! As if . I mean, do people walk around asking each other to justify their existence? NO... they only do that to us and government agencies.

I shall soon reply to his insenstive inquiry, but just between you and me, why do I need a topic? Am I not a topic into myself? I may not be the biggest thread nor the more viewed and talked about, but I'm still uniquely me. That should be enough for anyone.

The reason for my existence is the same as everybody else. One day, I just found myself existing and I went on to the next breath and the subsequent one, etc. etc.. I'm just here... thank you for asking.

Dear diary,

I have just given that nosy moderator a piece of my mind. But fear not... I was gentle as I zeroed right to the core of the human condition.

All this existence talk has made me quite pensive. If I exist, must there be a reason? And who is that "Aerogram" who supposedly created me? Why don't they ask him?

Dear diary,

Someone named June7 keeps plastering me with the picture of an underage boy showing his ass. Simple mooning or child porn? Time will tell. It's not a good sign that the same individual is already predicting my death.

Dear Diary,

Despite intense moments of self-doubt and a profound sense of nonsense and nothingness, I enjoy being a thread. I've made a few friends and there's even someone who wanted to help and said he was a Witness of something or the other.

Somebody sent me a transcription of what I look like on Page One. I was number four at the time! It's a shame that, being a thread, I can't visit other threads and find out. I can only imagine... which is of course what I did (see annotations). smile

Dear diary,

I am now dangerously close to the bottom of Page One. Perhaps it was a bad idea to critique all of Page One, even in my secret diary -- which I assume only other threads can read.

What will become of me? I hope I'll hit the top spot again.
