SKIRMISHER

Nothing very interesting really happened on Oct. 17, 2006; just the usual little wars, murders, famine, international political intrigue, the daily bout with office jackasses, and oh, the darned dog peed again on the fucking couch. So what, you’re asking, is so blog-worthy about this day?

Everything, says History Matters, as it gathers in a single day all the blog entries it could get from British persons everywhere. Like similar time capsules, this one number gives inter-human beings and sentient cyborgs from 3041 AD a glimpse into the drab daily existence of people alive in 2006, specifically those of Brits. Maybe to give future generations precious historical fodder to ponder the human enthusiasm of telling online strangers how you brushed your teeth, walked the dog, and stared at the wonderful, “orangy clouds.”

Stumble it!
