This week’s events started as usual, but ended unexpectedly. So
much has happened during this week, the time to find a suitable, topic to talk
about, or a video to discuss or recommend just never presented itself, and
thus, unfortunately, I do not have a topic for today’s article.
I am writing this quite late on Thursday night because I just wasn’t
anywhere near my computer in the morning, before this article was meant to go
up at midday, therefore, I just haven’t had the time to do any research into
many current topics that are happening right now in the world.
Today’s article is about me having nothing in particular. It’s
going to be nothing special, probably just a bunch of nonsense piled together
into coherent sentences, that probably doesn’t really have any meaning to them
anyway.
If I am brutally honest, it’s easier to talk about nothing than it
is about something, but it’s still hard to make sense. I could literally write gibberish,
but I am determined to make this article have a meaning, which is that it doesn’t
really have a meaning.
You could say I’m wasting your time. You expected an article about
something, either discussing a video, or a particular topic that I’ve found
interesting, but instead you’ve found yourself reading this, absolutely nothing.
I wouldn’t be surprised if you’ve stopped reading up to this point, but if you
are still wondering what else I have to say, you’re going to be disappointed.
It’s not an April Fool’s Joke, this quite literally is an article about
nothing, because I didn’t have the time to research anything, and it’s quite late
at night on Thursday. Now I’m repeating my words. You would think that, with nothing
really to say except nonsense, I wouldn’t have to repeat myself, but yet I just
did.
I do apologise for this article. It’s nothing special. It’s just
something to fill the gap. What was I going to do, keep this empty? Actually,
that probably would have been a better option, considering the complete lack of
sense I’m making right now.
I’m tired. It’s late. The title’s probably wrong. I should have
called it something else. I could have used that title for something better
than this. “No Topic”, “Completely Meaningless”, “Complete Waste of Your Time”,
three titles that I could have used instead of the one above. Now, if I do ever
write an article centred around the title’s topic, I can’t use it. I could
change it, but the problem I’ll have then is, if I do change it, this entire
paragraph won’t make any sense, not that it did anyway, so I don’t think it
will make a difference. No, I’ll keep it as it is. At least it will make this
paragraph make a little bit of sense; not much, but just a little bit, and that
is all that matters, isn’t it?
I am committed, by the way. This article will have 1,000 words in.
So far I’ve just past 500, so I’ve got another 500 to go. Well, less than now,
because I used a few to tell you how many words I’ve used and how many I’ve got
left. From the beginning of this sentence, the counter read 543 words, and the
counter, at the end of this sentence, reads 565. Well, if I include the title
as well. That may be cheating, but I don’t think this is the type of article where
I need to care that much, and technically speaking, an article isn’t complete
without a title, so it should be included in the official word count. But what if
you have an article that doesn’t have a title? Well, there probably would be a
reason behind it. You can’t simply have an article that doesn’t have a title,
because no one would know what it would be about before reading it. Although,
with it not having a title, it could create curiosity and draw people in, to
see what the article is about anyway. It would be a unique and original idea, would
it? Maybe.
On a positive note, I doubt anyone else has done something similar
to this article before, because it would be utterly pointless. What would be
the point of writing an article that no one would want to read, because it has
no meaning to it? But, despite that, it is an original idea. It’s a unique
article. Every article craves people to read it, but this does its best to turn
people away. However, on the other hand, the meaningless nature of this article
may actually draw people in, to see what else I’ve written. This may be
entertaining, because it’s utterly meaningless.
So, if the latter is true, and people are reading this, because
they want to know what’s next, and that they find it entertaining, that cancels
out my statement about this article having no topic. If this articles do in
fact have a topic, then the title is true to its word. I have created a paradox
because, not having a topic, is in fact, a topic. I’m going to stop myself
there; I’m tired, it’s late, I just want to go to bed. I don’t have the energy
for a sudden realisation, I just want to pass the 1,000 word mark, get this post
scheduled for today at 12:00, turn this computer off, get myself ready for bed,
climb into my bed, make sure the covers are wrapped around me comfortably, make
sure I’m in a comfortable position, close my eyes, and go to sleep. Knowing my
luck, I’m going to suffer from one of those nights where I’ll do nothing but
turn this way and that, close my eyes but never dropping off to sleep, but only
just doing so about a couple of minutes before the alarm goes off, so I will
have to get up and out of bed, feeling worse than when I entered…
That’s it, I’ve past 1,000 words, I’m off…
