The Daily Doodles |
My name is David Michael Chandler, and everyday I will post a Daily Doodle with a story attached to it. Everything you see here has been written, drawn, and coloured all on my lonesome. I hope you enjoy them, or die trying. Please E-mail anytime at thedailydoodles@gmail.com |
“Defragmenting the Brain”
Horrible memories next to good means the two often commingle.
You wish to remember a nice moment, but get that uneasy tingle.
Pleasant nostalgia ruined by things you wish you could erase.
Forgetting is usually impossible, but brains have a lot of open space.
Simply defragment your brain, store the dark memories to the side,
In the empty unused portions of the mind, you put them to hide.
There they can’t bug you, or infest what you wish to recall,
No more pausing on past regrets, slowing your brain to a crawl.
You’ll live happier not remembering anything that made you sad.
Filled with confidence knowing that you never did anything bad.
While over time that data may leak out, and flashes break through,
Just defragment your brain again, and you’ll never have to be you.

“Just One More Wasted Day”
As nighttime turns to day,
and daytime turns to night
You sit alone in your room,
bathed in your laptop’s light
Thinking back to your youth,
remembering all that you have seen,
Your best times were always spent
Staring at your computer screen.
So while life is passing by,
As you spend it clicking and scrolling away
It must be fine for now,
since it’s just one more wasted day.

“A Ghastly Realization”
Wrapped up tight in a warm blankie with the air conditioner on full blast (like she likes to do), Joss bops around online to see what her stupid annoying friends are up to…
“FML”, one stupid friend writes, “my parents didnt leeve enuff money for gas, I gota use mY OWN $$$ WTF”. Joss just sighs and wishes the friend would get t-boned by a drunk driver.
“I dont kno who i can trust, I feel so betrayed. It takes so much for me to open up and you showed me why I dont” says another annoyingly overdramatic friend, and Joss knows it’s just because that friend’s equally annoying boyfriend lied and went to a party, so naturally the friend’s faith in love and honesty shall never recover.
After scrolling past several tired memes, entitled whining, and idiotic opinions, one annoying entry jolts Joss out of her snarky malaise—
At first she mocks it: “that which doesnt kill you only makes you stronger”, said without a trace of irony by a friend who simply procrastinated all semester before finally staying up just one night to finish an essay… come ON, Joss thinks. How trite! How pathetic! That hardly counts as something you survived through—
But then Joss pauses, as she remembers— she also wrote the same cliched phrase 6 short months ago when she got fired from her summer job because she kept oversleeping and her parents grounded her for 2 weeks.
Oh no…
And that is when Joss realizes that she is just as annoying as everyone else.
