10 days ago, my friend Tim introduced me to omegle.com. We were at a dinner board meeting, and I immediately pulled out my laptop and logged into the cult website, omegle.com

I spent the entire dinner omegling with people. I mean, the first person asked me to cyber, but even the initial creepiness did not deter me from the allure of talking to strangers (not him, don't worry). I actually had a really nice conversation with a senior from UIowa who offered some heartwarming advice: "Go out. Have fun. Because the nights you remember will be way better than nights spent studying in the library."

WTF. i've spent every night this week in the library. fml.

anyway, needless to say, i heard 0 sentences of the meeting. except something about food at bulldog days, when i made the awesome contribution that we should have bubble tea. cause i love bubble tea!

since last week, i've told like, 10ish people about omegle. the standard reaction is, "omg, that's so creepy" "wait, like you go online and talk to strangers? like that thing our parents are always afraid we're doing online?"

chill out, dudes. it's not creepy at all. it's totally anonymous, and you're an idiot if you go on posting your name social security number and credit card number.

anyway, alex can vouch for meeting some cool people online. i myself will admit that 95% of the omegle population is boring. i mean, "hi. how are you" is polite and all, but you don't actually care how some stranger you're chatting with is feeling that day, and it just makes for a boring conversation.

in conclusion, until they start an omegleelite.com where really interesting people go to chat, i'm swearing off omegle. COLD TURKEY. omg i don't know if i can cut out anything cold turkey ihavesuchlittlewillpower... but i said it here. although it would help if you would ask me occasionally if i've used omegle recently, and then slap me if i answer yes. although not hard. i hate pain. maybe just a little lovetap. (that sounds dirty. i don't even know what a lovetap is. but it sounds kind of cute at the same time).
