parental privacy rant

whyyyyyyyy must my father say something like "hi lukas - i've seen pictures of you" when he meets a classmate of mine?

while shaking his hand?

ugh ugh ugh embarrassing!

this is just one of many problems with having your computer in the middle of the house:
your parents see pictures of you, your friends, your friends' friends, your peers, etc. when you're on facebook:
mom: "oooh who was that? he was cute! go back! do you know him? is he in your grade?"
dad: "what's up with that girl's hair? and those sunglasses! haw haw haw"

and i can't watch shows on the internet in peace. either mom is listening to Neil Young (ugggggggh) or dad is vacuuming, or they make me turn it down because they're tired. i wanna watch Skins without my mother going "oh my GOD! what is this!? i don't think you should watch this!"

all i wanna do is watch the too-sexy-to-watch-while-other-people-are-in-the-room video for "Love Sex Magic" by Ciara and Justin Timberlake. but NO.

whyyyy can't our computer be somewhere less public?
better yet, whyyyy can't i have my own laptop?
