I Am a Keyword Tool
from easytopia! Hosted by Herschel Sterling
I’m Hersch and this is a really short podcast to introduce you to what I do. There is a lot. It is a philosophical, theoretical and I have a lot of fun, I’m not afraid of thought experiment, and I’m having a riot cranking these out. I only use free speech outlets. Free speech is not hate speech. Censorship is hate. Being prejudiced about other people is hate. Trying to stifle free association and conversation is hate. KEYWORD TOOL Once I wrote a character and he had a catchphrase. I am not going to reveal the catch phrase here, but I did tell a friend. And, she said it sounded like it could be interpreted as “dirty”. Well, it’s not dirty, but I told her the only way to keep people with dirty minds from hearing things dirty would be to plug their ears or better yet, just avoid them. I never worry about the sick s**t going on in other people’s imagination. I have enough of my own, I guess. I mean some people hear things dirty because they are dirty. Then they blame you for the way they hear things. It’s crazy. They are crazy they are gross, it’s gross they’re gross people. Whatever, good riddance. Another character was listing to his car radio very loud. “Hey Larry, that’s too loud” He was told. “Yeah, I’m listening to it loud!” was his reply. Do you guys ever use keyword tools.

That is the kind of rambly s**t that runs through my mind when I wake up in the morning. Yeah, that’s right, rambly. Sometimes when I need a word I make one up. This is one of my most popular blog posts and I haven’t even published it yet, such a keyword tool. Bed stand note pad night shirt clown pants Seo later. This is a public episode.
