Everybody does it




Pennyreel laments the dearth of dramatic content online, but that is not to say we are not appreciative of the wealth of great comedy. Especially when its creative and catchy and incorporates the many online video and dating sites out there, as is the case with Erik Weiner's video below.
Ultimately, internet experiences are most often an endeavor in self-indulgence. We go online to seek out what or who we are looking for. We comment, post and interact, but when the screen inevitably turns back to flying toasters, we are once again alone. No single act epitomizes online vanity more so than a search of oneself. A look in the online mirror, we see what others see when they look for us online, and we all do it; we will all probably do it again after watching this vid.
Be proud of it, dammit! No one's watching, no one's around, you know you want to, so just google yourself for a little. It doesn't hurt anybody. In fact, it feels pretty good.
