Felt weird
As a non-english speaker I don't feel weird about the words of pop music. I
like the melody and earing the singing words it's not the same as reading words we understand. English speakers talk a bit fast for us strangers. It sounds cool to foreigners. But when we grow up lyrics from pop music sound strange to listeners. The same happens with these popular operating systems. They do the work but words and titles of programs and other things we get in this virtual space seem surreal when we translate them. I guess there are other OS's versions more polite. I guess this is classified as technical english, maybe people don't talk this kind of language in real world. But it's not just the software names. On internet there is news and some webpages information that could make people mad. Some people have fun, some people feel powerfull and smart, but we have people who goes crazy about social networks with thousands of provocative comments. Some people think they have real friends. In the end it's just a machine we can turn off and forget for a while. Sometimes I feel the need to write something just to spend time. But then I feel lonely because no one answers and I feel I have a secret to share but real people don't care about "my" sad thoughts. Sometimes I feel it's just a waste of time. But what should I do besides searching for a real life? |
