So I’ve been asked to do a top 10 list for the year 2003. Upon reflection, I realized I couldn’t really come up with 10 of anything interesting like local restaurants, albums I bought, or movies. Hell, I’m not sure I can say I bought more than 10 albums, went to more than 10 restaurants, or saw more than 10 movies this year, so that’s not saying much for a top 10 of any of those choices. “What do I do a lot of, then?” I pondered, “Aha! The INTERNET!” So, yes, due to an overabundance of time and a general lack of furniture, cable, and money, I spend a lot of time online. So here are my top 10 mind-numbing (and occasionally interesting) websites of 2003. They are in no particular order.

Oh, the drama, the friends’ list prunings, the utter humanity of souls lost in struggle--oh and the QUIZZES. Yeah, whatever. It’s a good way to waste time, bitch about how bored/unhappy/lonely you are, and keep up with your friend’s lives at the same time.

Message boards galore! One for every interest! Well, that and my friends have boards there, so I hang out there to babble about relatively meaningless stuff.

A friend of mine runs this website. It is always good for a rant, random insults, porn links, and the occasional picture of someone’s boobs. Not too shabby. Plus, you can hang out at her message board (when it’s public and not peopled by complete morons), view her camportals (which my own mean mug is featured on), and other fun stuff.
