I am about the most paranoid person ever when it comes to cyber security and anonymity, I take no chances. I don't think that anyone is ever going to connect me to my online accounts. Someone might be able to connect one of my accounts to me if they were determined but I don't really care as much about that.

That I was secretly a miserable person.

I don't know about me, but I do wonder about people who make YouTube videos revolving around racy humor or "angry" video game reviews. The YouTube celebrities at least have their real identity clearly tied to their Internet presence, and some of them are old enough to have young children. I wonder if their kids ever watch, especially if it's tame stuff?

I guess I don't have to worry, because I don't plan on having children.

They'll probably just think I'm a crazy old coot, which I plan on being regardless. :P Whether or not I end up with grandchildren though, that remains to be seen, as I do not plan on marrying or having kids any time in the near future, if ever.

Meh.

I've posted so much stuff under my real name that it would be easy to find. But most of it's about relatively obscure work stuff. Bless 'em if they can manage to trawl through that.

My grandchildren will never know what I've posted because I don't even have children. Which is a very. Good. THING.

dear grandkids,

as i'm typing this, you are nothing but a gleam in my eye.

your entire existence, at one point was a fleeting thought.

moist cookies and wet kisses-

Jan Tavierai.

I've just realized that my future Great Nieces and Nephews are going to be reading things that I've posted on the Internet, years from now.

Dear grandkids,


What the f**k. They harvested my DNA. They promised not to do that.

I never wanted you but if you have my genes you're probably awesome.

This one is to my parents

What the hell are you doing? Stop spying on me! Get the hell off Wrong Planet! I want a place where I can actually express my feelings. Go spy on what my sister posts, she probably goes on Old Navy or Victorias Secrets all day, whatever woman do on the internet. Stop spying on me please.
