The current situation in Japan has got me thinking about my stance on religion. A huge disaster such as the Sendai earthquake/tsunami can make anyone question their faith. Many people lose faith during a tragedy and many people develop an even stronger bond with their beliefs. I remember when tragedy hit my family I hated God and refused to believe that anything of that nature could possibly exist. My thinking was that no god could possibly allow things like that to happen. But some people see it as a sign that God or something else of a higher power is still there.Just as a waring this is probably going to get kind of preachy. So stay out if you can't deal with religion and what not.

A Fresh Start
Hard to believe it has been over 7 months since my last post. I broke a promise to myself and to my imaginary readers. This was supposed to be a creative outlet for me as well as a valuable resource to others. I have no idea what use anyone other than me would have for reading this but hopefully someone will get something out of it. I really want to keep up with this blog this year, next year, the year after that, and so on. I finally have a sense of direction in life. My compass may be slightly defective so i may stray off the path every now and again but what's important is that I head in the general direction to Awesometaculartown.

Top 8 Supercars
Wow my blog is becoming a list site, oh well they're fun to read right? There are so many cars out there that can be labeled as supercars. Wikipedia says that supercar is a term used most often to describe an ultra-high-end "exotic" automobile, whose performance is superior to that of its contemporaries. They are all extremely awesome, fast, and/or very expensive. Prices range from around $70,000 up to well over $1.5 million. The price alone makes the car super. But the real reason for getting behind the wheel of one of these machines is the performance. Some of these cars can rocket from 0-60 mph in less than 3 seconds. This is one of those lists that is extremely hard to keep short so here are my Top 8 favorite supercars. Lets get started.

Top 13 Rock/Metal Vocalists
There have been many a great vocalists throughout history. The twentieth and twenty-first centuries gave society some of the most talented and creative singers to ever walk the earth. Some of the greatest singers range from jazz singers like Ella Fitzgerald to screamers like Corey Taylor of Slipknot. Now obviously it is impossible to actually label anyone the best of anything, but I'm going to try to limit it down to the top thirteen singers in the genres of rock and metal, according to my own personal tastes and in no particular order. See the list after the jump.

Mommy, can I go out and kill tonight?
I don't know if anyone else has noticed but zombies have become extremely popular in the last few months. Not popular as in 1950's B-movies, but popular as in toys being made for small children and making them seem fun and playful. There are quite a number of contributing factors to the resurgence of the zombie craze. Games like Call of Duty: World at War even created a whole franchise off of suppressing the undead in a never ending onslaught known as Nazi zombies. Now I very much enjoy mowing down armies of undead soldiers but now everyone want's a zombie apocalypse to happen. There are movies like Shaun of the Dead (awesome movie) and Zombieland that poke fun at surviving an attack from those hellwalkers. Now before zombies were all the rage there were a select few who truly believe that zombies are coming, myself included, but now it seems like every kid who has access to any form of entertainment wants a zombie horde to come and mutilate their family. I honestly don't know what to think of the situation. Maybe it's better that more people prepare for what's possibly coming to us. I mean let face it modern medicine isn't far from reviving the dead. The Russians allegedly brought a severed dog head back to life back in the 1940's, so imagine whats possible now. It seems that humans have always been fascinated with things that can destroy them. It's one of the biggest faults of the human race, we are always trying to find new ways to kill ourselves. Oh well we have probably reached our peak, it's only natural for a disaster to come and kick us off of our pedestal. Nevertheless killing zombies should not just be viewed as a passtime, we should all be preparing for the undead uprising, or whatever disaster hits us first. Thanks for reading this p.o.s.

First post of the most awesometacular blog ever made
Oh the huge manatee indeed (greatest pun ever). I never thought that I would create a blog let alone actually write something on it. This is obviously my first entry into the hopefully never ending tapestry that is The Synthetic Generation. There is nothing harder than getting something started, which is why my mind forces me to procrastinate in order to make things as difficult as possible. Anyway, I started this blog to basically talk about things that I find really interesting and also to discuss everything that's ruining modern society. I'll do my best to cover a very vast variety (tee hee
alliteration rulez) of topics at least once a day. Hopefully some people will actually read this and make a habit of checking on it every day. Well that's all for now, thanks for wasting precious time on a schlub like me. (^_^)y
