What is this...

Okay, so, I'm a graduate. I have a Bachelor of Arts in English. I had to move back in with my parents. I am unemployed. I am exactly where I didn't want to be at the age of 21, almost 22. Now that we've gotten that out of the way, hello fellow humans/and or advanced species of cat that can use the internet. This is my first extra-curricular blog. I have made others in the past for educational purposes, that contained some pretty uninteresting stuff. I hope to change that starting....NOW. After reading several wonderful blogs including The Oatmeal and Hypberbole And A Half, (as well as being egged on by friends, acquaintances, and peers), I have decided to take a leap of faith into the unknown. I own a PC, and do not have Photoshop, or anything near to its equivalent, so I make terribly photoshopped images for the sake of their own hideousness. I feel like this blog will be a "Notre Dame" of sorts to the numerous Quasi Modos which spawn from the deepest/strangest recesses of my mind. 
Example A of what happens when I have have access to a computer, and the subject of a sophisticated, English Budgie came up in a conversation: 
...Didn't see THAT one coming, did you? Yes unfortunately, that is what my mind conjured up.
As an English and History student, I was subjected to taking mandatory courses which included lectures that I felt I had already experienced in high school. Case and point; while going through old notes, I discovered this gem:
Many humorous things seemed to have found their way into my studies, not only through my own note taking, but also while trying to study online. While quizzing myself about my knowledge of Shakespeare's works, I used several sites to test my memory. One site however, featured a quiz with many questionable response options. For instance:

Even though A isn't the correct option, it is clearly the funniest, and should therefore become part of the play. I demand a rewrite.
I guess you could say, that 4th year Kelsey had a major case of "Senioritus" and stopped caring about succeeding. She graduated, which is good for her and all, but does not however, provide her with a high-paying job, or prospective employment opportunities. So for now, I guess this blog will have to do.
