I live. I am human. I am a teenager. I am a guy. I live for something greater. I struggle with the basics. I groan at the usual. But I keep living to do what has been asked of me.
You can call me Speedy.
I'm here to reach out to the ones I love and care for. Once in a while I'll get sentimental, or deep, and probably blog something like it.
My life has simple aims, and a difficult path to them. I deal with it the best I can.
I am Speedy. I am Christian, but do not fear me, for I will love you regardless. I guess this is the chance for anyone who cares, to see the depths of my mind, and everything it holds, dark or bright. Happy or sad.
Read my thoughts or leave them, they are yours to criticize.

  • Question: Your Steve Jobs post even though you probably didn't mean to made you come off as an ass. Yes its sad he died, he's man with arguably the most revolutionary mind of the 21st century. He's had a huge impact if you want to admit it or not. But I don't expect anything less from a kid. - Anonymous
  • Answer:

    I honestly couldn’t care if the man was Ghandi… he’s still a man.  All the impacts we try and make for the general population of this world are ultimately meaningless.  Sorry if you find that the typical “ass type” behavior.  Oh and I’m loving the “Just the Kid” reference…

    Me being “just a kid” you think I know nothing of Steve Jobs or his accomplishment?  You’re talking to a wonderfully obsessed computer nerd, who is quite familiar with many things Apple and Microsoft.  I’ve seen both, I’ve used both, and too an equal extent I hate both, because neither are perfect, but that’s asking too much.  Apple software overall though is overpriced, overblown, and extremely confusing to a Microsoft veteran.  It’s made to be general user friendly, not get down to it techy friendly.  If that works for you than woopty stinking doo… Not for me.  The compatibility issues with the Apple software concerning a numerous amount of software is very irking.  Also the rings you have to dive through to make Apple born works and assignments show up properly at school (where EVERYTHING IS MICROSOFT) is quite frustrating at times.  Simply because Apple is stuck up and doesn’t want to have any connection TOO direct with Microsoft products or software. 
    And you want to talk about what a great guy he is?  Do you realize what an ASS he was???  He worked his people to death when Apple first hit it big and based up in Silicon Valley.  Alot of employees switched over to Microsoft after Microsoft hit it big (after Bill Gates practically stole the newly thought up Mac’s design).  Does that matter though?  Not really, because Steve was getting his own medicine after he stole newly researched ideas and development from IBM!!!  After he just waltzed into their research labs and asked to look around.  (btw IBM was top dog in early early computer era before Apple or Microsoft)
    While I’m in this rant….
    Still think I don’t know my crap?
    I’ve built my own computer, torn many apart, and geek out everytime there’s a new cpu or gpu coming out.

    Too argue the fact that I’m “Just a kid” equally makes you look the ass.  Welcome to the 21st century where *GASP* SHOCKING!!! kids actually know a thing or two. 

    Steve Jobs was no God.  He was a business man.  These same shenanigans will happen to Bill Gates when he dies.  The only thing different between Bill Gates and Steve Jobs?  One acts like less of a nerd than the other.  However Steve wasn’t too economically smart, which is why Microsoft eventually had to BAIL OUT APPLE from going under.  Steve Jobs was embarrassed as hell about it too, having to make a public statement asking Bill Gates for help. 

    You know, if I were to give YOU some advice… it’d be to think twice before you label off someone as an unintelligent or rude asshole because of their age.

    My point in the entire post was that he was just a man.  He died.  He may have started something big, but if all that technology disappeared tomorrow, would he still mean something? 

    I could care less about what the person makes or does.  I care about who they are, and more specifically, who they are to me!

Guess what…..
So what????
Yes he died…
Guess what, about a thousand other people or more died today too.  Why aren’t they getting spammed on tumblr and facebook?

OHHHH I DON’T KNOW…. maybe because PEOPLE ARE STUPID?????

I hate Apple anyway :P
Go Microsoft :D
lol
but honestly that has nothing to do with him dying…
Like he died…. okay yes… sad…. horrible…
But guess what, he wasn’t even running the company anymore.  He was a figuredhead.  Do you realize how many people DON’T realize that?  Same with Bill Gates…  Are you kidding me those guys are/were just sucking up their money now…
Not like he’s the mastermind who brought you the Iphone 4G or the Ipad…
nope nope nope… that was some underpaid nerd in accounting for all we know…

He’s just a man.  We all are. (well some of us are women… but same deal :P)  We sit here in shock when one person dies who we DON’T EVEN KNOW!  Have a single one of you 197 followers EVER… I MEAN EVER MET Steve Jobs???

NO?!!!! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!??!? I THOUGHT EVERYONE HAD!!!??!  I mean come on, we’re all sitting here with half a second sad faces like IDIOTS!!!!  That must mean we know him right?


Nope… it just means we’re stupid Americans who have nothing better to do than keep tabs on people who have more money than we do….

good job guys… real smart

He died.  yes it sad.  yes I sympathize. 
But guess what… if I died tomorrow… none of you would know.  I wouldn’t be on the news, and I wouldn’t be broadcasted on tumblr and facebook. 
Same story same story same dance same song same shenanigans….

The guy died.  Don’t act like the sky is going to fall….
