Establishing the premise.

I Hate to Hate the Things I Hate. Hate!

Welcome. My agenda today will consist of 4 points of interest.

1. The name of the blog.
2. Why the blog.
3. What the blog.
4. Blog you.

You are now entertained.

1. Name of the blog.
   
   

I don't really like blogs. I could easily say I hate blogs and bloggers. ( yes,yes, hypocrisy blah blah, see part 2 of todays agenda). So why do I use the word hate? It is such a strong word -And I will make use of the word hate frequently, I may try to make some kind of record. Possibly. Hate

Well, people use the word love all day long, in all sorts of stupid contexts, and thus leaving the word with no weight or meaning. Love has become immaterial. I will attempt to balance all this meaningless, surplus love in the universe, with some low-grade, quality hate. I'll use the word hate in much the same way as people use love. Not that I see myself as a particularly hateful person, quite the opposite, but I have a huge capacity for grumpiness, sourness and dark moods. Let us put all that in a bucket and call that low-grade hate, let it mature for 30+ years and behold the creature society built.

Also. I have been called many things, some good, some bad, and some rather neutral and not so interesting things. Hate One of those things were "that guy who hates everyone and everything". So there you go.

Lastly, there is the matter of my ex-wife's blog. It is quite excellent and called "I love to love the words I love". Enter the great balancer of the cosmos – me. I recommend her blog, it is well written, intelligent, funny and bursting with optimism. And possibly love. hate Mine will probably not be. Just to make it clear, this is not slander of that blog, nor do I wish to demean it in any way. Ok? Ok.

There is also the small matter of Ole M B, and his promise to collect his dreams in some sort of book of the horrific, magnificent and weird, if I do this blog.

2. Why the blog.

I hate things. Lots and lots of things. At this moment in time that is here and now, something tells me I should make some sort of disclaimer, don't want to worry people. Again.

I am not talking about he soul burning hate that launches armadas and starts wars or makes you wear your cat as a hat (I only wear my cat as parrot, on the shoulder) and try to bite people. It is more of a low-key, slow-burn, mood-souring thing. If you have issues with the title, pretend it is called I don't like things, or possibly, Ponies are the Best. Hate

Anyways. I am aware that there is a triple negative (sort of, well not really, but you see what I mean) in I hate to hate the things I hate. This makes sense. I don't want to hate stuff. Sadly, the world is somewhat imperfect and refuses to bend to my wishes. So I hate stuff. And I hate that I have to hate stuff. And so on. And I hate blogs. So in order to rectify one of my many problems, i.e. I don't like blogs and bloggers, I have to make one myself. This ensures me not hating it. My broken English aside, I'm quite happy with this arrangement.

3. What the blog.

This should be fairly obvious. Things I hate. There are lots of them.

Some things should be said. If I hate a thing, it should be taken as a given that it is a bad and blogged up thing. I am right, unless I am wrong. This is not open for discussion, nor is my hate. I refuse to research facts beyond a quick search on Google, or I will possibly just pull them from memory as I remember them.

I hate having bad memory.

Another fact worth noting, is that I have impeccable taste. This goes under the "I am always right rule". Unless I am wrong. I hardly ever am, and it is not up for discussion. Hate

I don't do design and I don't understand pcs. This will be obvious and possibly entertaining.

4. Blog you.

Sorry.

I hate it here. - Spider Jerusalem
