targeted ads, the blogosphere is exhibiting a rather bothersome
trend. In the Philippine blogging scene alone, it’s hard not to
notice the utter lack of creativity and originality manifested in a
lot of blogs that I come across.
Everybody’s simply selling out; riding
sensational and popular issues while sacrificing originality just
because it doesn’t fit into the ‘Winning Formula’. Take a look at the
blogosphere two years ago, take a look at it now. The general idea of
blogging nowadays is to take an excerpt of what somebody else has
written, put three or four sentences worth of your own opinion in it,
suffuse and blend it with as much google ads as possible, sit down
and wait to get rich 5 fucking US cents at a time. How fucking lame
is that?
Targeted ads are polluting the
blogosphere and I will not stand by idly while Google and its ilk
exercise hegemony over the Internet. With that said, I promise all of
my loyal readers (Pete and Sanjay, you guys) that I, Michael Joseph
Villar y Alinan, will never sell out and will continue to pursue high
art in the form of quality, original blogging. And I will prove that
now by posting my exclusive interview with Sam Milby of Pinoy Big
Brother fame.

Mike: Hello
everyone, I’m here today at Starbucks Emerald Avenue where I
am torn between creaming my pants and feeling like a total loser
because I am about to Interview Sam Lloyd Milby, the most recent
house mate from the sickeningly popular TV show Pinoy Big Brother to
be evicted. Hi Sam, thanks for coming, what can you say to all the
readers of the ID Configuration?
In
light of the latest batch of oil price hikes, I am beginning to realize
how driving to work easily eats up a huge portion of my meager
salary(Yeah, so I lied about my 6 digit salary. This is the Internet.
Sue me asshole.) I mean, a couple of months back, filling my car with
200 pesos worth of gasoline would suffice to get me to and from work;
Earlier though, I noticed that 200 pesos is only worth 5.2 liters of
unleaded Gasoline. In theory, this should still be enough to get me
through a work day but on the way home, my gauge would be hanging
dangerously close to empty and I’d be on the edge of my seat hoping
that the damn thing won’t stall. It’s a bad feeling, it’s kinda like
watching Pearl Harbor and how Ben Affleck’s plane’s like low on fuel
and they had to like land on Japanese-occupied China and he’s all “Holy
shit Danny, we’re out of fuel and you’re gonna be a father. We’re so
screwed dude.” with his stupidly tepid face and shit.
Anyways,
I’ve done some thinking and decided that the most pecuniary sound way
of dealing with this problem is getting a place near where I work
(which could be a challenge considering that most if not all
residential places here in Ortigas either have this weird effeminately
prissy feel to them or just plain swanky). I actually rented a place of
my own for a couple of months when I was with my previous job and was
practically living in with my Ex girlfriend. It was fun; the feeling of
independence it gave me, eating undercooked instant noodles while
walking around in my briefs; watching porn without fear of my mom
walking in on me; not to mention the All-you-can-have sex me and my ex
enjoyed. One of the best moments of my life I tell you.
After
me and my ex broke up, I decided to give the place up as well. I mean,
what am I going to do? Watch TV and jack off excessively? Those are
things I can do at home dammit.
So now I’m going to give this
“making it on your own” shit another shot. I’m actually browsing
through ads posted on Buy And Sell but nothing’s catching my eye;
besides, one of the things I learned from my first foray in finding
apartments is that what’s advertised can’t be father away from the
truth. Here are a couple of the most common descriptions used in
apartment ads and what they really mean:
Mike "Fucking" Villar
"a Manila-based blogger made famous by his Atrocities of Friendster series, a regular feature he publishes on his blog where he mercilessly criticizes and mocks pictures of ugly people he stumbles upon on popular social networking site, Friendster. Although a lot of people are offended by what he writes, long-time readers of his blog regard him as a brilliant satire writer."
