so fresh and so clean clean
During my freshman year at UNC, I had a wonderful suitemate, Jordan. He was an interesting person... not one of those openly sociable people, but one of those sly people who could insult you without you realizing it. Anyway, he told me when Outkast's "So Fresh and so Clean Clean" came out, he thought they were saying "so fresh and so bling bling." He would constantly say that phrase, knowing it was wrong, until I downloaded the song.
Anyway, I was perusing through my old journal entries and I came across an entry when I copied an entry from Jordan's online journal (now offline)... here is Jordan's journal entry.

i've always been intriqued by the internet and homepages. back in 9th grade i created a homepage that was only one page and only links..still i was proud of my basic html knowledge. today, i continue to peruse homepages and i'm dismayed to say that most include britney spears pictures or "shout outs." today's entry is an expose on my suitemate roy's webpage shenanigans. Being the journalist that I am, I underwent extensive research and conducted many interviews about roy's dot.com company--neopages, which can be found at www.neopages.com
I first heard about neopages a couple of months ago when it was outlined in roy's IM profile. roy is a 16-year-old freshman here at UNC. roy seemed innocent. roy did not seem like an internet mogul.
I decided to check the website, which is again at www.neopages.com. I was flabbergasted by it's professional content, and yet I was bewildered. What exactly is neopages...a website design company... or a conspiracy of roy's to dominate the world?
I confronted roy about neopages, since of course he is the "ceo." I asked him if he made any money, and oddly and mysteriously, roy became mum. he was suddenly avoiding questions, and quickly had to run to "go to class." something wasn't right.
later that day, i called a member of the neopages team, and since i refuse to reveal my sources to protect the innocent, i will call him "nunritty." nunritty confessed to me that roy found him in the jungles of cambodia in 1996. then, nunritty was a simple carpenter, until roy and his neopages cronies decided to take over his life. now, hes part of the neopages team, and like the mafia, its for life.
After this stunning nunritty development, i decided to look closely at roy's name. not really a common name-only three letters. could it be an anagram for an organization? so i looked more closely at the neopages staff. all were still in high school,or no one over 18. roy=Rich Only Youngsters.
who knows what roy will do if no one stops them. I envision a hostile web takeover. i would like everyone to joing me in suppressing this hostile and potentially destructive faction of the internet.
roy, to this day, claims innocence. He "likes his webpages" and has "worked hard on it." well, work hard on this roy. I have exposed you, roy, or whatever your name is...exposed
