More Mindless Drivel from a Meaningless Mind

I have a bad habit of writing random notes to myself in the middle of Word documents containing stories/research papers/etc.

Like, I just tack the note onto the end of a paragraph, regardless of said paragraph’s contents.

Example: so this fanfic…it’s like 130 pages and it’s gotten really, really dark, right? Around page 80, there’s this huge scene where the characters are talking about self-harm. At the end of one particularly emotionally-charged paragraph I have in all caps: “JOHN UPDIKE LOOKS LIKE A BAMF.” (well, he does.)

And then a couple pages later: “BUY SHAMPOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!”

Oh dear.

More somber and much  more important news. God, look at that thing:

That’s so depressing I don’t even have words.

Related: here’s an article from back in 2011 that actually has a compressed sample of the sound another massive iceberg made when it split (tell me this isn’t the most haunting sound ever).
