The Praxis II Can Suck My Dick!

2009-11-15T12:52:00.002-05:00

Yesterday I had the exciting privilege of taking the 80 dollar Praxis II test required to gain teacher certification in my content area, English.
Needless to say, this obnoxious shit-eating test left me with a bad taste in my mouth. (which I fixed with a bad ass bacon egg and cheese sammich and mound of hash browns from Letterman's Diner... fuckin A!)

This bad taste wasn't due to my fear of failing, maybe I did... I don't know... sometimes I felt like I was on top of the world, others not so much... mostly due to the fact that when I felt I got one wrong, it ended up being a few questions in a row... ugh.

Honestly though, bullshit standardized tests, I usually do pretty well on. Praxis I i got through with flying colors, I even managed to pass the writing section, which I wrote quite informally in. Mainly due to being prompted with such an enraging essay question, "Do you think Americans are materialistic," oh boy, the person who rated that must have had a blast.
I even scored higher on my SAT than my guidance counselor predicted... and he blatantly called me out on it; "Your score doesn't make any sense to me..." That's nice, glad he could have some confidence. Not that I scored particularly well... but after three years of PSAT's predicting I wouldn't get over a 1000, beating that curve by about 200 impressed him.
And then, even all through grade school with all those CAT tests and whatnot, I always managed to get into the above average percentiles.

So hating this test isn't even a matter of me feeling like I failed it, or that I can't take these kinds of tests... because I certainly can. These kinds of tests always tier me into the slightly above average, capable category... which I can agree is a fair assessment of my skill. However, my test taking skills were slightly shaken yesterday when I had 80 dollars and teacher certification on the line... obviously, taking CATs and PSATs... I could have given two shits less.

Anyway, let me get away from bragging about my slightly above average-ness skills concerning test-taking and tell you why I think this test is bullshit.

Firstly, about 60% of this test was solely reading comprehension.
You know, the same fucking questions you've seen on EVERY standardized test... huge chunk of paragraph, followed by 2-4 questions about it.
This is my content area test, why are there so many of these.
A.) These were on my Praxis I
B.) I'm a fucking English major, this is my concentration... can you just assume I have some reading skills... maybe?
But no, you "test" my reading skills by forcing me to answer all of these questions in a completely unrealistic to life situations "test."
When am I going to have to read 40 fragments of stories and essays, and answer 2-4 questions about each within a 2 hour period?
This isn't applicable to my concentration... sure I have to have reading comprehension skills, but I feel like I'm being tested on my test taking ability more than anything.
Which shouldn't be the focus of this test.
It's teacher certification!

Then, I have to deal with the bullshit answers.
Well, they at least upped the the difficulty of the answers, or maybe it just seemed that way because I was a little flustrated.
For example, one excerpt asked the question, "How would you describe the feelings of the character in this piece?"
I got the answers down to A.) Anxious B.) Apprehensive...
Then, wait a second, aren't these words fucking synonyms?
They're unreasonably close... and when you're in a frustrating, not applicable to real life testing situation... you are in no position to differentiate which one is "more right. "

Much fewer of my questions had to do with teaching situations... maybe 10-15 TOPS of the 120 actually applied any teaching knowledge. "What would be the best way to teach this... apply that... etc."
One question asked.
"Your school has supplied you with a text that has a lot of large and difficult words that your students may not be familiar with, what would be the best way to work with this book?"
One of the fucking choices was "get a different book."
That better have been my guaranteed throw away answer! If that's the answer someone should be fired, immediately.

Another type of question that annoyed me was the simple, "here's an excerpt from a book.. choose the name of book and author."
I'd consider myself pretty well read, especially when it comes to things high schoolers are expected to read... but two of these such questions, I was clueless... knew none of the books or authors... ugh.
Of course, both of those questions were associated with all female authors, so maybe that's just saying something about me...

As time came to a close for the test I started to think positively however...
"At least I can do well on the written part," I thought.
Oh wait... there is no written part.
The Fucking Certification test to teach English doesn't even have any fucking written essays!
No application! I'm not required to have a portion of the test which rates whether I have any kind of writing skills, any critical analysis skills, no use of any kind of literary theory, not even basic application of the 5 paragraph essay!
What a fucking joke...

So needless to say, I think a standardized test that decides whether or not I'm "certified" to teach my concentration area is absolute rubbish!
Ironic that, in all my of Education classes we stress how much the education system needs to break away from standardized testing, how acknowledging Bloom's Taxonomy (More than just Knowledge and Comprehension skills are important but Analytical, Synthesis, Application, And Evaluative skills as well) the 9 Intelligences (more than just Logic and Reading skills, but Spatial, Intra-Inter Personal Skills, so on).
How all of these concepts are important, and then the deciding test is a nonsense, useless standardized test which appeals to nothing but basic Knowledge and Comprehension Skills, and The Logic/Reading skill, test taking intelligences.

I went into that test expecting to apply so much more.
To be asked to identify poetic forms, literary conventions, general writing and grammar skills and all of these were much less acknowledged than "reading comprehension."

I call bullshit on Praxis II...
It can suck my dick...
and if I have to take that shit again... oh boy will I be mad.

James Marsden: Hollywood's Rebound

2009-10-25T00:17:00.002-04:00

I want to take James Marsden on a date. Actually, I want to take him on a lot of dates. And I want us to develop a comfortable love life and relationship. Eventually even a marriage... and we can have a beautiful life together with; two and a half kids, a golden retriever and a house with a white picket fence.

Not because I'm gay or anything.
Because I'm not and if I were, James Marsden is kind of an obscure guy to want as my man lover.
But, I want to do this for him, because he deserves it. Judging from the 3 X-Men movies, Enchanted, Superman Returns and the Notebook he kind of gets the bad end of the deal in his love-life.

In every one of these movies, he gets the shaft. And I'm not sure what else he's been in (except the movie Sex-Drive... in which his character ends up being gay, so literally does get the shaft) but I imagine he gets dicked over in all of his other movies and real life as well. He's just the Hollywood go to guy to get fucked over in his relationship.

X-Men 1-3 for example. He's Jean Gray's guy, and leader of the X-men. But he comes off as a jerk-off? Why? Because Wolverine is trying to get some of his girl, so he treats him poorly. I don't think that's a dick move... that's fucking normal. If a guy's coming onto your girl, and blowing you off... he's a fucking douche-bag and he deserves no respect from you. But Cyclops Marsden comes off as a dick because of his protectiveness with Jean, and dislike for Wolverine. And ultimately, is fucking KILLED by his girl when she is possessed by some kind of super being. And that Wolverine gets to kiss her and tell her he loves her in the end, he also kills her for being possessed... but still. That sucks man... he has to compete with Wolverine who "loves" her because of one good conversation they have AND he gets killed. Bullshit.

In Enchanted. He is the typical fairy tale prince searching for his bride. He sings, is valiant, goes on a huge journey to find and rescue the princess... he's fucking perfect Prince Marsden, . But what happens? She falls for some regular dude from the real world in the end. When I questioned this I was told that this was a feminist attempt to "break the fairy tale traditions," but that's no excuse. This guy has nothing but good intentions. He jumped into a foreign dimension to fucking rescue her... and he gets the shaft!? No good.

In The Notebook, he is the "other guy." You know, the guy Rachel McAdams has been dating and is ENGAGED too... because her ex-lover disappeared, stalked her for years, and obsessed over her to the point of building her a house. And again, Notebook Marsden gets ditched by his fucking fiance for this other schmuck. I pointed this out to girls who adore this movie for its "romantic qualities" and was told it was because Notebook Marsden is wealthy and materialistic. A) This isn't proven! Just because a guy is wealthy and successful doesn't mean he's materialistic per se. and B) the other guy lures her in by building her a fucking house. That's materialistic, not romantic. If it was romantic they could live in a fucking cardboard box because they loved each other so much.

in Superman Returns, he is dating Lois Lane. No need to elaborate... he's competing with FUCKING SUPERMAN.

Now, as you can see I've presented a clear case of James Marsden being a great man... in need of a great AND loyal woman.
If I'm lucky, a woman out there will read this, and date and marry him for me.
Or maybe, we can find some people who agree, we can start a petition and try to get this man some success.

But... if nothing happens soon.
I will do for this man what needs to be done.

Good Comics vs Bad Comic

2009-10-12T22:39:00.003-04:00

Did you ever see a chick comedian who does nothing but make the most cliche woman jokes? Like referring to her period, and how men refuse to stop for directions.
How about black comedians who do nothing but discuss the differences between white and black folks?
Or how about, that guy Josh Blue, who has cerebral palsy and has a tendency to center all of his jokes around just living with that. Which is kind of entertaining, and he also gets the sympathy laugh but that's ALL he talks about.
How about any Blue Collar Comedy Comedians. Who do nothing but come up with one line ("You might be a redneck," "here's your sign" "git'r'dun") and then apply it to any random comment they think up. (I'll exclude Ron White, he just happens to be white trash, he doesn't center all his jokes on it)

These are some shitty obnoxious types of comedians.

And somehow Jeff Dunham manages to encompass all of these, and unmentioned others into his act... and that's why he sucks.

Jeff Dunham has a huge stand-up comedy career that does nothing but disappoint me. He's not funny... and people seem to think because he has puppets, he is.
Here's a hint, he has the dummies because he's not funny.

He picks up his old man puppet, Walter.
Now he makes jokes about being a cranky old man.
Wow... how clever.

He picks up dummy of a hick.
Insert white trash jokes...
He's a genius.

Pimp Dummy, Dead terrorist dummy, jalapeno dummy, and Peanut the monkey
All Racially insensitive.
All focused entirely on stereotype jokes.
NOT FUNNY.

You see, anyone who isn't amused by puppets at a kindergarten level, would realize Jeff Dunham isn't actually funny. At all. But because so many people are such simple saps, and clap their hands and giggle whenever they see puppets... he has taken off.

And that's why I am disappointed in people.
And also why I don't think he's funny.

Hopefully his show will help people realize this, and will get canceled pronto.

Money Concerns

2009-10-07T20:45:00.003-04:00

Sometimes I get depressed about the thousands of dollars in debt I am accumulating due to being a student.
This situation seems pretty shitty... people like me who motivate to better ourselves and contribute to society build up thousands of dollars in debt and spend years paying back the government.
Meanwhile other pieces of shit in this country who plan to never better themselves and never contribute to society, basically leech off of the government, essentially get PAID to do nothing via welfare, unemployment, etc.
Not that I'm saying all of those people don't need it, but there are PLENTY of people cheating the system... don't deny it.
Now is it just me or does this seem Back Asswards?
I work hard, to get a good job... so I can pay back my first 3 years salary for the job I got?
Others... don't have jobs and get paid due to their "inability" to make money or live?

Well anyway... I didn't come here to complain about those who leech off of the government. I don't know enough about welfare and unemployment to rant about it. I'm here to rant about college debt... and how I am starting to feel better about it.

Lately I've been feeling like... you know what, so what if I have thousands of dollars in debt before I even start my life. I know I can do it.
And it's not just for the obvious aspect of "how many people like me are in the same boat."
I mean, that's an obvious factor... plenty of my peers are in the same boat.
But... I'm feeling better because I know I'm a lot more CAPABLE than them with money.

Having worked at Wawa for years, I see how much people SUCK at spending money.
I see the same people come in every day and buy multiple cups of coffe, energy drinks, cigarettes, and other shitty food.
That shit adds up!
Those douche bags that "need a kick" in the morning, buy multiple red bulls a day. That's a lot of money. 2 red bulls is 5 bucks. 2 every day. A pack of cigarettes every day at 6 bucks a pop. 3 cups of coffee a day at 1.50. Someone that needs all three of those things is spending 10 bucks a day right there.
That's money I won't be spending. I don't smoke, drink coffee, nor am I a tool to the energy drink trend.
Then of course we can factor in people who drink every day... people who eat out all the time.
People spend a lot of money they could easily save if they had some control and intelligence.
Not to mention, so many Americans are materialistic... people need nice cars, new phones every 6 months, nice clothes...
There goes tons more money on things that aren't ESSENTIAL.
What's wrong with a working used car? A phone that doesn't have this months latest phone upgrade? Not having a polo shirt for every day of the month?

I'll be fine once I get into the real world with all my debt.
Because I'm smarter with my money than most of the pieces of shit out there with the same amount of debt as me.
I'm not the smartest... but I'm certainly smarter than the people I see in Kutztown every day.

But I'm still pissed that the system works in a way the fucks students over... there has to be a better way to do this stuff.

Oh, and a final note.
To those students who go to college just because their parents can easily pay for it, but who don't genuinely give a shit about it.
Fuck you... if you don't wanna be here have your parents pay for someone else to go.

Shitty Quotes: Volume 1

2009-10-07T20:33:00.003-04:00

I'm considering starting a second blog focused SOLELY on criticizing people for shitty quotes I overhear.
No matter where I am, I always hear somebody say something they should be embarrassed for... or preferably insulted for.
But... knowing me I wouldn't update that blog every time I hear a shitty quote, so I'll just make a point of including them here whenever I find one I like.

1.) "If you're a guy and you don't like football, you're borderline gay."
Nothing hits the spot more than some good dinner eavesdropping. Hearing this shit is why I'm always keeping an ear out for dipshits around me. Granted, this guy gets SOME forgiveness for using the key word "borderline," but still nothing says "Hey guys I'm really insecure in my sexuality so I like sports," more than this quote. And everyone knows they have a friend who overcompensates for their lack of masculinity or comfort with their sexuality by liking sports. I know I do/did. Any guy that says "He forced himself," to like sports... well that is over the borderline of gay. The only thing you wanted "forced" is another guy's.. nevermind. I just wanted to point out that this quoter is obviously insecure and gay.

2.) Girl - "So are you like... really smart."
Guy - "What do you think? I'm on the football team."
Unfrotunately too many people like this: go to my college, take up space, and throw thousands of dollars away every year. What the fuck? Are these people serious? Is he that happy being a useless piece of shit who's not actually at college to get an education? Well fuck him... thanks for lowering the value of the BA asshole.

3.) "I just feel bad for people who weren't raised reading the Bible..."
I think everyone who reads this shit can assume what I have to say about it. This broad sucks, I wish I would have stopped to fight her.

Oh That Seth MacFarlane.

2009-09-27T20:39:00.006-04:00

Oh man, the Cleveland Show is starting tonight...
Another brilliant show created by Seth MacFarlane, how DOES he do it.

Oh I know... he doesn't.

I don't get it. MacFarlane makes Family Guy, Politically Charged Family Guy, and now Black Family Guy and people seem to think that he is the most brilliant animated show creator EVER.
Seriously?
According to some Family Guy is the apex of comedic genius... (in animated television)
Seriously?

UGH!

I like the shows, they are amusing... but people give them so much credit for being something they're not.
They're not clever... they fill the show with pop culture references, which people love, and random physical gags, which are less funny in cartoons, in place of actually coming up with any witty jokes or story lines.

Robot Chicken does something similar... but they don't try to trick you into watching a half hour show with a make-believe plot, they make it 11 minutes and make it completely obvious there is no plot or any cohesion to their episodes at all, also they fill it with many/much more clever, witty jokes... it's all around better. (Usually)

But I'm sick of people mentioning Family Guy moments as being amazingly hilarious.
Peter can only fight the chicken so many times before it gets old. (It has)
And they can only make so many shitty self-references and repeated jokes (greased up deaf guy wasn't funny the first time... why have I seen him again?)
Also, talking animals aren't funny anymore... Brian the Dog at first seemed like a clever character. An amusing spin on Snoopy... very amusing. But then they had the fish on American Dad (who like Brian has a crush on the wife of the family... real unique) and now they have a talking bear on the Cleveland show. Oh the wit.

And Family Guy is in syndication so much!
It's on 5 different channels, and on for probably 5-6 hours a day.
That's nuts!
We're conditioning people to have shitty senses of humor, and almost no attention span. (Not that we're not doing that in dozens of other respects in our culture today)
We make them think that making arbitrary pop culture references, is always funny.
When in fact... it's not!

Think about it like this.
I've watched episodes of Family Guy at the bar, with no sound, because... I'm at a crowded bar.
And it was still fairly amusing...
you know why?
Because you don't need to listen, you don't need to have any idea what's going on... because NOTHING IS GOING ON.
I'll just randomly see Gary Coleman and laugh...
Or see Peter get hit in the nuts...
That's not funny, clever, or witty TV at all.

And if you want to argue with me and say, "Well you laughed when it was on mute... that must mean it's good."
You know what else is good on mute... "America's Funniest Home Videos." (it's actually funnier on mute... removes unnecessary host commentary.)
And you know how much writing and thought goes into that show's clips... NONE.
It's the comedic equivalent of going on youtube and searching "kicked in the nuts," or "punched in the face."
Sure you'll laugh, but that doesn't mean it's witty or clever in any way.

But then again, I realize my thought process would technically make Seth MacFarlane a genius for knowing how to cash in on America's stupidity.
But he's not fucking good at coming up with funny TV shows.
Only his voice is funny... if that is his real voice.

And now I can only top this off with the writers of Family Guy.

Dr Kevorkian came to my school!

2009-09-20T22:31:00.007-04:00

Oh man. I need to blog. I have so much on my mind right now!
I'm so mentally stimulated!
So be prepared for a cluster-fuck of thoughts and ideas... and don't hold it against me if it comes off a little angry at parts, because what really sparked this annoyed the shit out of me. Than again... what's a good blog entry without some anger. I don't believe I bother thinking about anything if it doesn't infuriate me in some way.

The infamous Dr. Kavorkian came to Kutztown tonight, and my girlfriend and I attended the lecture.
He discussed civil rights, penal system reform and of course assisted suicide.
He spoke very little of kids in China... which confused me.
(that's a joke)

Anyway, the lecture itself wasn't what really got to me. Some things he discussed I agreed with, others I didn't. But nothing I disagreed with so much to the point I was going to write a letter to him.

But the general theme of disagreement is what ultimately led me to the frustration that has brought me to my blogspot.

Q and A session! Exciting...

This went, poorly... and was quite long... and quite, uncomfortable too.

And who has questions for Kevorkian? None other than people who think he's fucking Satan... my favorite people, religious fanatics.

And one fellow, basically asked him the AMAZING question of...
"Well, if you don't believe in god, or any god, then how do you decide between what is right and wrong?"

Fucking ridiculous! What a question...

And, Kevorkian gave him a response. Which basically said that we decide what's right and wrong by discussing what we think, but sometimes we can't always agree on one thing.
Which made sense to me, but that guy was not satisfied... and insisted on a better answer.

Now I'm not gonna lie, Kevorkian wasn't so hot in the Q and A.
He had trouble hearing all the questions, kept asking people to repeat themselves, and it made him seem a little foolish.
He's also 81 years old, so I don't expect him to be in the prime of his wits.
Also, he seemed kind of dismissive with some questions, but he probably hears the same annoying religious based questions all the time. For decades now probably.
I'm sure every person with religion on their mind imagines they are going to be the one to change the old man's mindset. Right... you didn't even come here to be open-minded and listen to him. You came to be angry and to argue during a Q and A... well you're wasting everyone's time you schmuck.

I really wanted to step up and argue with this guy for the sake of Kevorkian though.
His question, is... so frustrating and maddening!
I can just imagine him, in every moral dilemma of his life... pulling his Bible out and looking for some appropriate quote telling him how to respond and what to think.

First of all!
You need to realize that the fucking Bible was written by actual people. Not God. It's one thing to read the Bible for guidance, hope, and some ethical concerns. It's another thing to think the writers of scripture sent their hard copies to God to be edited and revised before final publication.

Does this guy just imagine that atheists have no morality whatsoever? That anyone who doesn't believe in God is the equivalent of a cave man (which he also probably doesn't believe in) and has no concept of right or wrong.
Unfortunately, he and too many other people probably do think that way.
Considering he asked the question in the first place is more than enough evidence.

Frankly... I imagine God would be much more impressed with an atheist who lives morally and has good values, and does it because he believes it is right, and because it makes life more comfortable for people.
Rather than a god-fearing christian who lives morally and follows the values of the bible because they want the reward of heaven in the end.

That's just what I think though.

Really... this guy, and his question need to learn some shit.
He has clearly never thought for himself.
And I know exactly where he's coming for... 12 years of catholic school and I know for a fact they never teach anyone actual ethics, or skills to discern right from wrong.

What you get in catholic school is memorizing the Ten Commandments. And then you're given a list of sins you shouldn't commit.
Rather than teaching people how to think about situations, and decide for themselves... we we just taught. That's wrong... in all situations.
I'm going to go to hell because I masturbate! And I am committing both adultery against my future wife, as well as abusing my body... that's two commandments in one act.
Well how about... there is nothing morally deficient in my masturbating. My body is programmed to have sexual cravings... and to ignore those is to ignore my humanity.

That's my morality, and you know how I figured it out without the Bible... I fucking thought about it. I decided for myself... it's not a sin or a crime, because I'm not hurting anyone else, and I'm not hurting myself. I'm clearing my mind, I'm relieving sexual feelings...
What an awkward example.

But seriously... back to catholic school.
in 8th grade I was told that suicide was a sin. That if you killed yourself, it was considered murder... and that you'd have been better off being miserable while alive, because now because of your actions you're going to be miserable in hell for eternity.

Later... within my catholic high school I was told that suicide wasn't considered a sin. That the person committing suicide was so desperate and despairing that they weren't in a proper mindset and couldn't be held responsible for their actions.

So I guess... God sent a memo out sometime during that 4 year period to clear that up?

I think not... the PEOPLE in Rome... who come up with the rules, by discussing their ideas and opinions... came up with that shit.
The same way people came up with the whole Bible, the ten commandments, and everything else you fucking believe.

If you honestly can't imagine how people decide between right and wrong without the Bible it is because you are fucking BRAINWASHED.
As Kevorkian said tonight... "You are sheeple (a clever combination of the words sheep and people), slaves to the system"

And if you can't try to think for yourself for a change.
Then you're free to die slowly for months, in unbearable pain and mental anguish... lying in a pool of your own shit and piss as your organs slowly stop working... dying with dignity just the way your god intended.

I still hate Greek Life.

2009-09-16T22:42:00.004-04:00

I've discussed my hatred for Greek Life before.
In an entry from over a year ago titled, "Greek Life... a club for people who want to be in a club."
I see it essentially as a program for students who want to be involved... but have no hobbies, interests, skills or personalities.
So instead of joining a club for outdoors, or joining student government... they started these Greek chapters which are nothing more than herds of sheep. Associated for some reason with the Greeks despite having nothing to do with the Greeks. Also they are joined by people who know absolutely nothing about the Greeks but try to trick you by referring to the Greek alphabet.

Anyway...
This entry spawns from annoying sororities on campus... who have charity bake sales and try to make me feel guilty because I refuse to acknowledge or give any money to their cause.
They're just so phony.
If they genuinely cared about the cause... maybe they could all decide to not buy another set of; shirts, sweatpants, hoodies and purses with their letters on them... and they could donate THAT money to charity.
I bet you'd make a lot more money NOT buying 30 some hoodies than you make selling cookies and brownies for a dollar once a month.

But you DON"T give a shit about it.
You only give a shit about your sorority, and your image that only other Greeks care about.
So you have these phony bologna charity bake sales... to try and convince yourselves you're making a difference, and that you matter.

Shit... one of your joining fees alone is probably more than you make with those bake sales.
I know at least one of the sororities is 500 dollars a semester!

Is that like an extra charge offered through the school?

If you're scared you won't make friends... you can pay 500 extra dollars.

I'm already a cheapskate when my friends ask me to cover a beer for them, I wouldn't pay 500 dollars just to be around someone for the semester.

So anyway... fuck you asshole Greek Life douche bags.
If you genuinely gave a shit about any charity, instead of throwing 500 dollars away on "membership," and god knows how much more money away on shirts and so on, which you need to show you're in that group. Well, you could just put that money directly into the charity and save yourself the trouble of baking goods, ordering shirts... and looking like a pathetic asshole every day of your life.

AT'T Can Suck My Dick!

2009-09-15T22:24:00.003-04:00

Actually AT&T, I'm going to be very particular about the way you suck my dick.
You don't get the privileged loving version I give my girlfriend when she falls asleep and I'm a little restless.
I want you to suck my dick from behind.
I'll bend over, and you awkwardly bend my dick back and suck it.
That way I am safe to fart and shit all over your face the way you deserve.
I don't even care about the risk of getting shit on my balls, or even farting on them... it'd be worth the risk to offend you in such a way.

So I just bought a new phone 2 weeks ago.
It was 80 bucks with my upgrade (which I get every 2 years, and my phones always last 2 years because I'm super anal about caring for them.)
Then I got a 50 dollar rebate! I'm still waiting on that.
But yeah, essentially 30 bucks for a brand new phone.
I spent an additional 6 dollars on tetris for my phone too! Because I adore tetris!

So this phone lasted about 2 weeks.
See, it's a slide phone... unlike my usual flip phones.
I pull it out of my pocket to get a text and... oh... look at that the screen is white and not working.
It was a pressure crack.
The screen wasn't physically cracked, but because I was careless in... putting it in my pocket and doing things, as careless as you can get with a phone I suppose, but because I was careless, I guess in doing something through my daily activity's I crushed the phone against something and ruined the screen.

I go to AT&T to get help. Imagining, hey... this phone is brand new, this is a shitty thing that happened to it... I don't feel responsible for it being broken, because this isn't some careless mistake like dropping it, or letting it get wet... it should be safe in my pocket.

Well the woman at the store. Immediately lets me know this pressure crack is my fault, there's nothing they will do for me. I can't even do any kind of exchange with the new-ness of the phone.
She lures me over to a counter where someone else will deal with me. And walks away from me, she has no intention of helping me anymore... she's done her part. Told me it was my fault and she had no help for me.

Oh wait, she also told me that this particular pressure crack was NOT a "manufacturer's malfunction," and that's why they didn't do any kind of exchange.
Now... maybe I'm the only person thinking like this because I'm pissed because I no longer have a working phone... but that seems like a manufacturing malfunction.
The Whole front of the phone is the screen... so why wouldn't they make it to withstand pressure?
I mean it was in my pocket... and it's not as if I was lifting weights, I was going about usual day activities. I think actually, when "I caused" the pressure crack I was bending over to pick something up... oh what a strain on that phone!
I don't know AT&T, I think when you make something that's meant to be carried around all day, in someone's pocket or backpack or purse... you make sure it can withstand typical daily strain. If not, I'm gonna say it's a manufacturer's malfunction.
What you made me, is a piece of shit.

Moving on.
This woman pawns me off on another woman who is just as unhelpful.
She assures me that, well firstly I can buy a new phone.
Oh wow, what an option... I never even imagined that'd be in the realm of possibility.
I can even buy this phone I already have... for only 200 dollars with another 50 dollar rebate!
Wow, I really want to re-buy this phone for 200 bucks, essentially 150 bucks in 3 months, so I can have it for another 2 weeks.
No... that option sucks.

Then she assures me, if I intended to not care for the phone I should have gotten the insurance on it.
Sorry, my fault I was so cocky in believing I could take care of a phone... I've had 2 phones in the last 4 years. Sure I should be aware that accidents do happen, but... I'm proud too.
Although, I am a dumbass because insurance was only 10 bucks compared to whatever a new phone would cost. I'm a cheapskate... I'll admit it.

She also lets me know maybe I should have considered buying a case.
Yes, because a case... with a thin transparent nothing piece of plastic over my phone's screen would have protected it from the pressure it suffered in my pocket.
I think phone cases come in handy much more for drops, and safe storage... it's still going to feel pressure when pressure is put on it stupid.
Can you also explain to me how cases work for a slide phone?
It seems overly complicated... maybe they should just make phones better quality instead of making everyone buy a case.
I dunno... just a suggestion.

Whatever.
You people were dismissive and completely unhelpful to me.
I was patient and civil with you guys, despite how angry I was with my piece of shit phone and your piece of shit service.
But who am I to complain. I'm NOT a good customer, I've had an AT&T plan for 4 years and have only bought two phones from you. I have unlimited texting plan, and never go over my minutes... I'm probably your worst customer.
You value customers like my sister. People who go through 4-5 phones a year. Who constantly go over minutes... and, using my sister as an example run up $600 dollars in one bill with texts alone.
I'm a shitty customer, because I don't pump tons and tons of money into you yearly.

Fuck me.

But really AT&T... and cell phone companies in general.
You're fucking scammers. You're rapists!
You charge hundreds of dollars for shoddy pieces of shit... then have the nerve to tell me I'm at fault.
You make phones that aren't intended to last the amount of time it takes to get an upgrade.
Ask your friends... I imagine maybe 1 in 5 people actually keep a phone long enough to upgrade it.

I'm mad.
I hate AT&T
Go fuck yourself
The end.

What Are You?

2009-09-06T14:28:00.003-04:00

My first week back on campus.
What am I going to rant about and rip apart?
Could be my kinda dumpy house maybe? It costs way too much, that's all I have to say for it.
Freshman, I do hate them.
First Thirsty Thursday? Nothing I'd like to rip more than a girl in my pro sem classes, who will be teaching a class of high school students next semester rambling about drinking like a 16 year old boy who just had his first beer.
Honestly, I could talk about anything... but the random thing that got to me this week... of all things... was lesbians.

Don't get me wrong, I could give two shits less whether people or gay or straight. And even if I was going to complain about homosexuals, like everyone else I would go after gay guys not gay girls. After all there's nothing more beautiful than two women in love (at least physically).
But I question a lot of these lesbian couples.
In a lot of these couples, there's always the one girl I have to look over twice... to try to figure out what gender she actually is.
And that girl is fine... you're a lesbian... you like girls, being kind of a tomboy... or feeling kind of masculine I can understand.
It's that regular looking girl I question.

Is she legitimately a lesbian?
I don't think so... I think if you're a lesbian you like girls.
So why would you go for a girl with masculine qualities?
I feel like you're secretly betraying yourself, and your girlfriend.
I think you're bisexual.
You can't like girls and then go find a girl that could pass for a guy.

Not that I understand the psychology of homosexuality, and especially not of the fairer genders homosexuality.
But I'm sorry lesbian with guy looking girlfriend, you're just bi.
You want the best of both worlds... the looks and size and strength of a man, and the hole of a woman.

That's all I had to say... just had that thought. Thanks.

Fleshing out my opinions of religion.

2009-08-24T22:42:00.002-04:00

A Justin, I think I know him but I'm not 100% it's him, called me out in my "your beliefs can be shattered by dots," post from last week. So now I feel it would be appropriate to respond to him and elaborate on my ideas concerning religion.

Considering Justin said to me that, "How is it crazy to feel strongly about something? Have you never seen something a certain way and stood stead-fastly next to your decision?" I feel as if he got the impression that I am against having faith and beliefs in general. Which I'm certainly not.

I have nothing against religion for what it is, nor for people who follow and believe in it. I'm not religious myself, but as a person who believes there should be a consistent code of ethics and morals for people to follow, I honor/respect where religious traditions and beliefs come from. People need to be kept in line, they're too dumb to be on their own... and religion plays an excellent Shepard to the human sheep of the world (Along with politics, educational systems and TV.)

I draw the line though, with self-righteous... hardcore, in your face asshole Christians, or generally... people of any religion who are just, overbearing in their beliefs. (I feel suicide-bombers for example... are quite over-the-top for their religious ideals.)
Believe what you want, but as soon as you start telling someone else to believe what you believe, and try to convince them the way they live their life is wrong... (or blow them up) well you're just an asshole.
It's one thing if you're telling this to a group of death-row inmates... I'm sure they'll appreciate the last minute pep-talk.
But walking around college campuses, hanging around outside huge music festivals, busy street corners... face it, you're not wanted, you're just being an arrogant faggot, and fucking nobody wants to hear it. (At least talk to homeless people maybe, they could probably use the extra hope in their life.)

And this is the point I was trying to make with my grammar argument.
People act as if what they believe or that their book is the ultimate truth... and it's just arrogant drivel.
You're honestly going to get in people faces, and tell them they are going to hell because the book you read has a couple questionable passages, which can be interpreted into... who knows how many different ways. A book which I pointed out, has been through whatever number of translations, languages, editions... over the past 2000+ years. A book, I realized can be completely lost in translation moving commas and semicolons alone!

That's my problem with religion.
Because, it just doesn't make sense to me.
Let me give you an example. Say I read a book, come up with an interpretation... and start telling people, that's the only way it can be interpreted. The original author of the book is dead, as are any of his close friends that could confirm his goals and ideas behind creating that book. I constantly argue and debate, and by argue and debate I mean tell people their opinions are wrong, mine is right... and, what the hey tell them they're going to hell for their opinions.
If I acted like that, I'd be an asshole... why should it be any different if it's a Bible or any other religious book or document?

And that's it Justin, aside from your over-analytical concern for my use of the phrase "forcing it on you," as if these religious freaks would follow me around and make sure I'm being a Christian, which is... a kind of out there reading of it...

But Simply put...
I don't hate religion.
I hate religious fanatical cunts.

Your beliefs can be shattered by Dots!

2009-08-15T22:41:00.004-04:00

So I'm reading this grammar book... because, I like to make efforts to improve myself.
Anyway, I'm reading this stickler guide to grammar, which is weird since (if you're reading this you know) I'm not uptight about grammar at all. But, when it comes to writing and editing schoolwork I make a genuine effort.

So, the author in discussing commas and semicolons and takes an excerpt from the Bible. She changes the grammar alone and one can get a completely different interpretation of the excerpt.
I'm not gonna post the example, because... fuck that, this isn't a a research paper. Just take my word for it, I didn't pull this shit out of my ass.

But yeah, that's nuts... that people commit so much to something that can be disputed so easily.

I mean, I've argued about those hardcore nazi Christians that come to my school before, and how I think it's moronic that they're so adamant about a book that's existed for 2000+ years... been through, god knows (pun intended) how many different languages, translations, and interpretations... and can still stick so strongly to the word... like Jesus wrote it down and handed it to them himself.

Like it's outrageous to me... to feel so strongly (and try to force that on others) about a book that... you don't honestly know the history of.
I doubt they studied Latin and fucking dug up the Dead Sea Scrolls to do their research.
They picked up a fucking, mass produced, thoroughly edited... special edition of the Bible from some Christian book store... groan. And now they're telling other people how to live their life, according to this book they just paid 26.50 for from Penguin Publishers.

But I never thought of this argument on such a level of grammar alone...
Imagine that.
Your beliefs can be shattered on the re-placement of commas and semicolons alone.
Fucking... fancy dots can dispute everything you believe.

What assholes.

I'd hire Mike Vick as my dog-sitter.

2009-08-15T22:26:00.003-04:00

I don't give a shit about sports; but I certainly like criticizing its fans and their worthless opinions.
So per usual, if you know me I live in Philly, this week the Eagles picked up Mike Vick the dog-killer and tons of people are up in arms.

I'm not going to go off on a huge rant as I usually tend to do. I've got something different planned for today.

Jobs Mike Vick was not hired to do in Philly:
Dog-sit
Pet store manager
kennel director
PSPCA employee
baby-sitter
kindergarten teacher
nurse at hospital or home for elderly
dog-catcher
animal control
Phila. zoo job

you're starting to get the point I'm sure.

Job Mike vick was hired to do:

Be a big athlete in a sport filled with big scary men who tackle and dominate one another in an attempt to move a ball up and down a field for points.
A sport attended and watched by thousands of people every week. Primarily people who get drunk while watching... then proceed to drive drunk, pee in public, and physically fight with one another over which team is the best.

Meh... I'm done for now.

Harry Twatter and the full blood prick

2009-07-18T21:36:00.005-04:00

Really... fucking really?
So, my coworker and I mentioned an intent see the new Harry Potter movie during work the other day.
And... well, a passing coworker overheard and shot down our Harry Potter dreams by asking us not to talk about it, because it's against her religion.
Now, I didn't defend my case... because, I would have gotten fired because I couldn't just tell her she was wrong, I'd have to insult her intelligence, faith... etc... and work just isn't the place to do that.

But really... really... really? Are you fucking kidding me.
A.) Your religion has nothing to do with us, so let us fucking talk about it.
B.) It's not actually your opinion, because I know had I argued with you... you would have had no argument or any good points to make.
C.) It's not against your religion, and your faith is filled with assholes.

Are people seriously still making these arguments?
I thought the 7th book of the series would have put all the haters in their place.
Since the series ends stressing sacrifice, friendship, love... things I've noticed Christianity generally encourages.
But no, solely focused on magic... god forbid we try to nurture any kind of imagination in our children, Tv and internet do more than enough for them right?
No. I'm wrong, obviously, kids see this magic, and relize they'll never believe in god, will pursue their own magical talents and magical school... and so on.
Frankly I think you're all a bunch of fucking tards (A statement that probably would have been completely unacceptable in the workplace.)

I guess you'll just read the bible to your kid and tell them how the human race spawned from 2 humans, who then spread into ever greater numbers by inbreeding the shit out of one another for a few generations.
Much better fiction for kids right...

Anyway, Harry Potter isn't opposed to Christianity.
If you think this it's because you're stupid. You're brain washed by your beliefs.
And when you're brain washed you don't get a real opinion.

Oh and one final note.
I'm constantly noticing dumb asshole hypocrites who argue for religious concerns, but then conveniently... go against their religious ideals in some other way.
For example, my coworker stresses that Harry Potter is against her religion. But she has a kid and she's never been married. Doesn't your religious say anything about pre-marital sex... I went to catholic school about 12 years, I think I remember something about that.
And then there's every dumb broad I know who insists that Abortion is murder life is sacred, but I've caught a few of them using either birth control or the morning-after pill... so you get two strikes for pre-marital sex and finding alternative forms of destruction of life...
Cunts.

Opinions.

2009-07-18T21:16:00.003-04:00

I haven't said much lately.
But that's because nothing has made me mad enough... I've been spending my angry time just antagonizing people on facebook.
People love to argue when I insult what they like, as if my opinion has any real value to anyone other than myself.
As if, because I think a: show, movie, band, sports team... sucks, or they suck for liking it they are legitimately losing value.
Fuckin dipshits.

It's funny, as someone who blogs and shares their opinion... I don't give a shit about ANYBODY else's opinion. I think, there are maybe 5 or 6 people I listen to, and that's only concerning select topics among them.
Anyway... so say I mention I like something and someone puts it down, that's the end of the conversation.
Am I going to argue?
No, there's no point... I like it, they don't... it's something we don't have in common end of conversation.
For example.
I still like the comedian Dane Cook. A lot of other people don't like him anymore... because he was popular. (So fuck people who suggest I rip things cause they're popular... I rip things cause I hate em, and it just so happens I hate a lot of shit.)
Anyway, so I'll throw in a Dane Cook joke... and listen to like a 5 minute rant.

"Oh man, he's so overrated, he's not funny at all... blaaaahdy blaaahdy blah."
First of all... most of the time these people are lying. I can recall 3 people off the top of my head who have given me this speech... and I know they like him, I've heard them quote him... so they're fucking, trendy faggots.
Secondly of all... where does the conversation go from there....
"Oh... I do."
The end?
Shut up.

I plan to go see a movie, I mention it to somebody and I have to hear somebody... "Oh you wanna see that, I think it looks awful."
Oh... I had better cancel my plans then...
Thanks for looking out bro.

No.
You're wrong.
I might be a hypocrite, I share my opinions on here, but... don't give a shit about others. Fuck them.
But I came up with a mentality that saves me from being a hypocrite.

A.) If you're reading this... you do think my opinion has some validity, or at least entertainment value... so it's the same as asking me "John, share your opinions and brilliance with me"
and
B.) I at least entertain with my opinions... other people are boring and stupid when they share theirs. So I have that going for me.

No News is Good News: Pt 2... I am proved... SO right

2009-06-20T20:22:00.002-04:00

As if the gods wanted to send me a message about my idea of no news being good news... or rather... relevant.
So yesterday one of our local newscasters died. Gary Papa, from prostate cancer.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to be insensative or rude about the death of someone (although I do hate when people take the deaths of local or worldly famous people too hard) I mean, honestly... this guys been the sports guy for the local ABC station my whole life, and having recently lost a family member to cancer... I can understand some of difficulties of the situation. However... this isn't what I'm trying to talk about.
He died at about 2-3 in the afternoon... and the hour and a half news programming starts at five... after Oprah of course... because the people who needs to be "informed" are usually the same people who think Oprah is some kind of demi-god.
They presented no news... it was all dedicated to that mans loss.

They talked about him... interviewed locals about him... the cast and crew of the news shared their stories about him.
It's as if as soon as they realized he died... they took all the "news" they'd worked on all day... decided none of it was relevant... trashed it... and just shot the shit about their friend.
I have no problem that they wanted to respect and appreciate the memory of their friend... but it's as if they WANTED to PROVE to me that... honestly, we DON'T NEED to know any of the "news" they have to present.
I don't think they talked about anything other than him...
Oh... except the weather...
But no local crime, fire, school graduations, swine flu, celebrities... (sort of... Gary) I don't even think they did sports.
Thanks for the proof Gary, rest in peace... sorry you had to leave us.

That's all for today...

No News is Good News

2009-06-16T22:50:00.002-04:00

I feel like the news does a piss-poor job of actually informing me of anything...

Seriously? What is on the news... that I need to know about?

Every day at work people buy up all the newspapers, every night at home I have to vacate the living room to avoid the essential two hour news programming.

But it's all shit, what do we NEED to be informed of for 2 hours every day.

They have very little politics, and only a few minutes of weather... other than that it's all shit filler.

A fire across town is not news to me... anyone that gives a shit about that fire, (people in the neighborhood, friends and family of victims) will most likely know about it sooner than the news will inform them. So what do I need to know for? I don't.

Murders? Rapes? Violence? They caught the guy... I don't need to know. Let me know if the guys at large and I need to be scared... but if they caught him I don't care. If he murdered anyone I cared about... again I'll know before the news... I don't give a shit.

I feel like "The News" is more focused on reminding me how vulnerable and mortal I am... I guess that's what it's supposed to be informing me of.

And now the news includes celebrity gossip... not the celebrity gossip news... the REAL news is talking about the celebrity gossip. Honestly, I don't give a shit what famous person just adopted a foriegn baby. That's not news... that's... shit... steamy steaming shit. No one needs to be informed, these people aren't special. Don't publicize their dumb lives...

Really... when will people stop caring about celebrities.. they suck. Be in movies and tv shows, entertain me... that's your job... outside of that I don't give a shit. What other professions are there where people always want to know what you're doing? I don't give a fuck what my mailman does outside of his job... I wouldn't wanna hear about his baby... or know where he eats lunch. I don't give a shit... I just want my mail... and his job is to bring the mail.. .the end.

Oops... I got off topic, but yeah celebrity news is fucking useless.

Oh yeah... the news.
I remember over winter break when I was home I sat through an hour and a half of news discussing just the snow.
Apparently nothing else happened in the city or world that day because it snowed.
So for an hour and a half they just showed different areas of the city covered in snow, interviews with people about how they shoveled snow... and then some goofy on the scene news guy sledding... what the fuck?
You've informed me of nothing... it snowed... I looked outside and figured that out on my own.
I dislike shoveling... public polls don't need to remind me of this fact.

Fucking News...

Palin and Letterman... what a Bitch

2009-06-16T22:38:00.003-04:00

Sarah Palin you cunt.

What a bad sport... how can the person who ran for vice president, and who claimed to be any kind of all American be so against a late night talk show host for making a joke against you and your family?

Really? He should be fired... well you should never have been hired.

What would have happened had you made it into office? Would every comedian, tv show and so on be banned after making you the butt of a joke?
That'd be quite the representation of the American politician.
Way to represent the American ideals...

Face it Palin... you are a punch-line... that's all you'll ever be from here on in.

You no good cunt.
Go back to Alaska and and fucking stay there.
Keep your overabundant offspring there as well twatsicle.

The Swine Flu

2009-05-09T00:08:00.001-04:00

I just realized I have yet to make a post on the swine flu.

As it's a terrifying pandemic affecting people in my country and area, I must say something.

So I'll keep this brief.

My first day back at the Wawa this summer, I was in the back room sneezing and blowing my nose. One of the women I worked with came back and started to say "hope you don't have the swine flu... it's pretty scary. Actually, one of the Pennsylvania cases was at a school right down the street from my house. It's scary, but yeah... you go to college a lot of people in one little town. So be careful."

And that's why she'll work at wawa for eternity.

That's all

John's Letter to Asher Roth

2009-05-04T13:55:00.003-04:00

Dear Asher Roth,

I've recently discovered your song "I Love College," and I'm not sure whether or not I want to sue you for publicizing MY life... or to hire you to write my biography.

Shit man... your song has every detail of my life down: Miller Light, Thirsty Thursdays, Beer Pong, pizza, sex and weed... not to mention the constant chants my friends and I always do such as "Freshman! Freshman! Freshman!" and "Do something crazy!"
Cause we always chant at the freshman... cause they're so differentiated from us upper class-man.
And as for "do something crazy," well nothing noteworthy has ever happened at school without that chant to set it in motion.

You got it all down... I'm not even sure how you managed to get it all into one song.

What you really got down was the philosophy of my life... as well as most of my friend's lives of, "times not wasted when you're getting wasted."
I mean you have a point in "I can't tell you what I learned in school... but I can tell you a story or two."
It's true... I'm not here for education, or bettering myself, or learning any gay shit.
Just drinking and weed all night every night... hangovers every morning. Things I could never achieve without giving thousands of dollars to an educational institute every year... ya know!

I don't wanna keep you too long bro... cause I'm sure you've got other commercial and youth of America exploiting MTV songs and videos to produce.
But just thanks so much...
Especially for not making the title of the song "I love Kutztown" or "John *&%#$ loves college" cause I just would have gotten all this fame and publicity... that I didn't need.
But... that biography offer still stands.

-Your Biggest Fan,
John.

P.S. I hope you die in a fire.

You know why women get paid less and should continue to be paid less?

2009-02-03T23:32:00.007-05:00

Eve.

That's why.

Woman ruined everything. We had a huge,peaceful, glorious garden. Everybody was naked all the time and fine with it.Then Eve had to go and get tempted, fall for it and ruin everything.And that's my society is tilted the way it is, because it should be.
Why should a chick get paid the same as me? She ate the fruit. She fell for the snake's bullshit. How do you fall for that! "Oh, you seem to have everything, but not quite. Check out those apples over there, you should go try one. Fuck what God said."
Apples aren't even that good, and I'm sure there weren't any other apple trees in the garden? I'm sure. Right...

But yeah! Typical woman, not satisfied with what she already has. Always needs more.
"Oh there's an apple I can't have. Suddenly I want it so badly even though there's plenty more to eat and enjoy in this garden!"
And this bullshit continues even today.
"Oh why stay at home and cook and clean, raise and spend time with my children and pursue hobbies and interests throughout all of my down time during the day when I could work in an office full time and accuse men of sexual harassment in hopes of getting them fired."

Of course The Garden of Eden is just a myth from the Bible. However I have no doubt that it's a metaphor for actual events.
Maybe, way back when, when people were becoming people, the men would go out hunting and the women would take care of the children and gather up various snacks and treats. But the women weren't satisfied.
They got bored. So what do they do? They made the men pursue other things.
Thus nagging was born...
"Honey, don't go hunting, build me a shelter instead and when you're done that, start farming I'm sick of wandering around looking for food and shit. And after that, go to war with other people I don't want anyone else to be better off than we are."
Sounds like it makes sense...
So:
The temptation of Eve parallels women coming up with the idea to ask for more, that they didn't need.
Then, having Adam bite the apple also lines up with the nagging him to accommodate her demands.
Finally, the apple being eaten creating an awareness of nakedness, good, evil... etc is women demanding more: homes, clothes, jewelry, and eventually war to keep other women from having better homes, clothes or jewelry.

Women should have been happy with what they had.
Being asked to take care of a home, and raise and produce children.
Does it take ALL day to keep up with chores around the house? Honestly, if you're home every day doing chores there can't be that much to do, how dirty could it get?
Shit, if I could stay home all day, while my wife earns a living, that'd be the shit.
I'd keep up with my chores, be able to hang out with my kids all the time. We could play video games, watch movies and take naps all afternoon. Then my wife would come home, too exhausted to spend any time with me or treat me like a person and she would just want me for sex. That'd be great!
Why did women give that up?
How were you dissatisfied with this lifestyle?
Shit, if anything, because women are ultimately responsible for the loss of Paradise, they should be the ones who have to work and support the family.
You owe it to us... the first woman/women fucked everything up.

The only thing men ever did wrong was try to please you.

The Dark Knight didn't get nominated for best picture!

2009-01-30T00:37:00.007-05:00

Okay, so I'm not actually worried about it... since I don't give a shit about Academy Awards, and I'm not one of those people who's constantly raving about how Dark Knight is the best movie, past, present, future, ever....
But I do have feelings on the topic.

...Negative Ones...

(otherwise this would not be blog worthy)

First, I don't see why exactly it didn't get nominated I mean, it got 8 other nominations... and every person and their mother saw it this past summer and declared it was the best movie they've ever seen... so why not let it be included in the best movies of the year right?
And it's not as if it was just some superhero action flick... it had a lot of thought and depth put into it (that people claimed to love... to seem even more included in the trend of loving it, but you know for the most part they didn't think about or get it). It had good actors/characters... it was more of a crime thriller than a hero/action movie... and the academy usually loves well done crime thrillers (The Departed, No Country for Old Men...).
However... I do understand other things.

I understand that the Academy is most likely a bunch of pretentious elitist assholes who consider any movie that can be so widely loved by the masses... not worthy of such a noble award.
I also realize the movies not perfect... I NEED more fans of this movie to just fucking agree with me that their throat hurts whenever they hear Christian Bale deliver a line as Batman. That the movie could afford a little bit of a cut down... and that, well as good as Heath Ledger's performance as the Joker was, people should not be lined up around his tomb in an effort to blow his dead body for a job well done.
I'm sorry guy at concert who had a tattoo of the Ledger Joker... but you are a douche bag... and as I've said before... your tattoo, resembles you so well by suggesting that you are a friendless tool.

But lets agree it's a really good movie, they put a lot of thought and effort into it.. and it payed off. Batman fans and non-fans all thoroughly enjoyed it. It deserves credit.

However... that's not my argument for why the movie should be nominated.
I wasn't even trying to argue for it actually... I was just trying to get to this point.

Last year, Juno was nominated for best picture.
Fucking Juno!
this movie is a fucking travesty...
I'm not going to elaborate... I'm just going to copy and paste some quotes from the movie... and I want you to cringe like the actors who had to deliver this garbage most likely did.

Juno: (calls Leah) I'm on suicide watch
Leah: Juno?
Juno: No it's Morgan Freeman. Do you have any bones that need collecting?

Juno: I'm pregnant
Leah: What? honest to blog?

Brief Rainn Wilson cameo that probably got movie another million tickets sold: (talking to Juno about pregnancy test) That ain't no etch-a-sketch. This is one doodle that can't be un-did, homeskillet.

Juno: I think I'm in love with you
Paulie: you mean as friends?
Juno: No, I mean for real. Cause you're like the coolest person I've ever met and you don't even have to try, you know...

Vanessa: your parents are probably wondering where you are
Juno:Nah, I mean I'm already pregnant what other kind of shenanigans can I get into?

I can keep going, I could probably just put the whole movie here... and be furious...
Was Diablo Cody thinking she was catching the true essence of teenagers? Of Indie kids? Of any kind of real person?
Part of me thought she may have done it ironically... but I just have this hunch, that it is not at all... that'd be too clever... and this movie's not clever.
Honest to blog is not clever
it is fucking horse shit.
This movie got nominated... somehow, someway... the Academy not only acknowledged it as something worth sitting through... but something worth giving an award to also.
That is why I hate the academy
and that is why The Dark Knight deserves a best picture nomination.

I's Gots a lotta things tuh say bout dis

2009-01-23T00:03:00.000-05:00

So I'm currently taking Adolescent Literature, so for every class I'm basically reading... (or claiming to have read in some cases,) books that as a high school teacher I will be teaching - Catcher in the Rye, Great Gatsby, Chocolate War... etc.
So today we were reading Huck Finn, and during our conversation about it... we gradually got into the debate about how it's censored and excluded from curriculum for its... about 200x's use of the word nigger.
This really annoyed me... actually most debates about word censoring annoy me.
If you don't like the word, if it makes you uncomfortable... or makes you flinch, don't read the book... That's a starter, not happy with it... put it down, I'm sure Mark Twain can afford the loss.
But really, I have so many feelings on this topic... I can't organize them properly so excuse me if I go on a rant.
It's funny how a great piece of literature, which causes a person to think, and which a student can get so much out of is put on trial for the use of a word.
But you turn on a radio station, buy a rap CD and you'll hear the word thrown around meaninglessly... oh parson me, they change the ER to an A in the end and it doesn't imply the EXACT same word AT ALL.
Seriously people...
That's one strike against it.
It's either okay in all forms, or none at all... don't be hypocrites and say one's fine and another isn't.
So what, Mark Twain is white and Rappers who use it aren't, guess what... he used it in an intellectual, historical fashion... depicting the past, using the language they used, and they use it in a gangsta streetz fashion... which side would you rather take?
Then of course we can take it further and say, well... what else offends people.
You can't just let the argument stand for one person or group, you have to allow fairness to any and all persons/groups that find something offensive in literature.
So people get offended by any word, idea, concept... something completely outside the text that they somehow associate with it and get upset about.... they now have reason to ban that from curriculum as well.
It'd be complete nonsense, before you know it... every piece of literature would be off the market for containing some form of - racism, sexism, intolerance... something like abortion in a book would get it taken off.
If we took books off the market for offending people, every piece of gay literature would be taken out of the classrooms for making homophobic students/ or students with homophobic parents uncomfortable.
It's just not justified.
You can't completely ignore that a work has so much depth, and so much can be gained from it just because you disagree with an idea... or word in it.
It's straight up ignorant...

AND I'm not trying to get into the N word debate, I think it's so stupid... a word can only have as much power as you give it... and we can continue to ruin the career of any white man who stumbles and lets loose the horrible slur in any kind of public forum, while rappers throw it into their songs as filler and get more money... whatever, I don't wanna get into it.

But to deny people such a rich piece of literature, because it uses the word in a completely sensible and meaningful way is plain stupid.
If you're a parent who's fighting to get it taken out of classrooms... you're stupid
you're probably not even smart enough to raise a child.
Whatever, cry about a word... but feel free to completely miss the purpose of the story... the history of the word, and anything else one would gain from sitting down and reading a book.

But Seriously, this isn't funny...

2009-01-13T13:56:00.000-05:00

Something has really been bothering me as of late.
Family issues... and I know, this is not really the kind of place I need to vent about my family, and make public all the shit that's going on with people I share a name and blood with.
But you know what, the people I'm about to rip apart... aren't close family members of mine, are dumb enough to have brought it upon themselves, and when criticized openly help me to put down an entire group of other idiotic people and the shitty life-styles they follow.

So... my cousins, who have children... think drugs are awesome.
You know, like... crack and heroin... those cool drugs... that are really healthy for you, and help form good habits.
Anyway, I'm pretty disgusted, because hey...
First of all... who's dumb enough to even get into the scene. Hardcore drug use annoys the shit out of me... I mean, even cigarettes and pot annoy me so you can imagine how stupid I think the hard drug users are.
I mean... how do you even get into it... pot I can understand, whatever, as long as you're not the kind of person who's high 24/7 I can kind of see where you're coming from, but who's getting suckered into crack or heroin... I can imagine that drug dealer trying to get you to try it
Drug Dealer -"Hey, I know you like to smoke weed... so you'll love crack..."
My Cousin -" I dunno drug dealer, I hear it's really addicting and ruins lives...."
Drug Dealer - "No no no, that only happens to the suckers, and you don't seem like a sucker. Here... just try it once, if you don't like it don't buy it again..."
My Cousin - "Alright, I guess I'll give it a chance once... cause I'm not a sucker" ::gets addicted to crack, ruins her 2 daughters lives and gives birth to a 3rd crack addicted child!::

Yay!!! good people...
So yeah, I feel like to even get suckered into hard drug use you need to be a fucking idiot.

Then there's the complete lack of consideration for the children you're raising.
Man... MAN I can't even begin to elaborate on how much I hate shitty parents...
Let me just say this... I'm adopted.
I was adopted as a baby, and my parents had to go through so much to adopt me, background checks, various meetings with adoption counselors, having people randomly drop in on them to make sure they kept a good home and weren't drunks or druggies.
And this is what they do to people who WANT children, people who go out of their way to try and have a child put into their care... rather than random women/couples who just get knocked up and are like "oh shit a kid, looks like we're stuck with it..."
So apparently anyone who just shits out a kid is entitled to it no matter how shitty of a person they are.
Like my cousin who shows up at the hospital clearly high, gives birth to a crack addicted baby and leaves with her baby to take it back to her dumpy living arrangement.
While her other 2 kids are getting abandoned at school on a daily basis cause mom forgets to pick them up, and it's completely obvious these kids aren't being properly cared for but Child Services has yet to be notified... she gave birth to these kids, she deserves them.
What a great world.

Fucking bullshit, drug addicted un-nourishing bullshit parents who's kids will either die or keep reproducing and facing the same difficulties in life in an endless cycles of; drug addiction, family dysfunction, going nowhere in life bullshit.

I think, we should develop a system of tests that people giving birth go through.
Shit, put anyone who's going to have a child through the same shit my parents went through.
Then when they finally have the kid, keep bothering them, check in on them... keep tabs on the parents, make sure they're working... not getting involved in drugs/alcoholism... seriously.
The reason people are so fucked up is because they're raised by people so fucked up.
And then... if you fail to be a good parent... your kid gets taken away.. and either put up for adoption or put into a new government: start-em-young military program.

Cause they'd be better of being trained into soldiers at age 5, then in the hands of the shitty people who'd be "raising" them otherwise.

Girls Still Don't Like Sports

2009-01-07T23:53:00.000-05:00

So the Eagles are in the playoffs this year... and after the Phillies winning this past World Series... hype is up.
But I just have something to point out...

No it's not that everyone is jumping the band wagon again. Or that everyone who complained how terrible they were all season are now claiming they believed in them the whole time.

It's all these chicks in Eagles jerseys I noticed, and despite a huge blog I wrote about it 2 years ago, and re-edited and posted a few months ago... again I need to stress.
STOP LYING GIRLS.... YOU DON'T LIKE SPORTS.

You don't... quit bullshitting us.
Guys don't pretend to like makeup and shoes to impress you.
And if they did pretend to like something to get close to you, you'd get mad at them and hate them until you realized after some crazy plot twist that they did it cause they like you so much... but we don't do that, we don't lie... so you shouldn't either.

So quit it, you don't like sports.... really.
And every person I mention this too insists they are the one exception or they know the one exception.
And you know... I am a rational person, so I will admit their are some exceptions... maybe 7 in this entire country, but the rest of you are lying assholes.

Consider this people... have you EVER walked into a girl's room or a room of girls and either A.) heard them discussing their favorite teams/players/games... or B.) walked in on them watching sportscenter?
It's never happened... it won't...
Don't kid yourself it won't

you MIGHT walk in on a girl(s) with an actual game on, but they're not paying attention... it's just on in hopes you'll walk in and think they care. Really they're on facebook tagging and commenting on photos. Occasionally they'll look up when they hear something about a goal or scoring unit, and then text you saying "did you see that OMG!" to trick you into thinking they give a shit about anything on TV other than the Hills. But they don't...

They really don't

Stop lying girls!
We're still not Fooled!

Tim Burton has finally been inspired

2008-12-22T22:08:00.000-05:00

Stumbling around the internet... I found myself reading up on some Tim Burton, Alice In Wonderland action.
However, I stopped reading when one particular article started irking me terribly.
Here's what annoyed me...

- Tim Burton’s live action/stop-motion hybrid “Alice in Wonderland” is easily one of the most anticipated. To date, the enigmatic director has generated considerable buzz for an inspired casting roster that includes Johnny Depp, Helen Bonham Carter, Crispin Glover, Alan Rickman, Michael Sheen, Christopher Lee and, of course, Anne Hathaway. -

Hummm.... sure, Burton found some good actors but I feel like if you're going to use the word "inspired," you shouldn't include in your list at least four actors he's worked with before... and you certainly shouldn't start the list with his boyfriend and wife who are in EVERY one of his movies.
There's nothing inspired about about Burton choosing Depp or B-Carter...
That's like saying you woke up one day and were inspired to get dressed...
You weren't inspired to get dressed... it's daily routine, it's normal... just as normal as Burton pondering his movie plans and wondering, "now where does Johnny fit in..."
Guuuhhh...

That's what I get for reading something from an MTV hosted movie blog... groan...
Don't ask me how I wound up on mtv, you know... you just stumble and find something your interested in.
The funny thing is... the average people reading up on their movie news on MTV probably didn't even question the use of "inspired."
They probably just went with it... "Johnny Depp... I love him... he's so hot... if I knew anything I'd kill myself from self-pity."

Well, the movie still sounds entertaining... I just hate shitty blogs.

Every Survey You've Ever Read

2008-12-22T01:17:00.000-05:00

1.) Who was the last male you talked to?
These are the kinds of questions that get down in dirty... last male I talked to... you really get to know a person that way. Or if you're a girl reading another girls survey... you know which boy she's trying to be with... watch out... it's Jeff and you've always liked Jeff... what a bitch.

2.) Who is someone that can always make you laugh?
what? no who is the last female you talked to? No need for consistency... just go with it. That person who can always make you laugh better be reading this... or else no one cares. If anything, maybe a friend of yours who thought it would be them for sure is now thoroughly disappointed.

3.) What were you doing at 10am this morning?
If you're cool you'll say sleeping... your life's chill... you can sleep and relax.
If you're stressed you can say class... or work...
no matter how you put it... it isn't really interesting at all

4.) What were you doing an hour ago?
if you did this survey at 11am... boy are you in for some redundancy...
if you say you were still on question one of this survey you're so dumb...
face it... if you're filling this out right now... you couldn't have been doing anything TOO exciting an hour ago

5.) Are you wearing anything on your feet?
Again... as deep as you can get.
This is how you can really learn who your friends are, do they go barefoot or with socks around the house?
Did they just get home... could they be wearing shoes or sandals
you can tell a lot about your friends based solely on their footwear.

6.) What are you looking forward to in the next 3 months?
3 months? I'm doing a survey... I have nothing to look forward to ever

7.) Do you remember your dreams?
No one ever does.... and when they do it's incoherent, broken up-Tarentino-esc bullshit.
The only people who have anything to say about this is mushy saps who say they dream about their significant other... and they're lying.

8.) Where did your last hug take place?
I don't give a shit about who you hugged, or what the circumstances of the hug were (family, friend, date) I just wanna know where it took place... because it's bound to be interesting. Oh in your living room? you are fucking fascinating... I am so interested in your deep ass survey

9.) Have you been to a baby shower?
who gives a shit, this question sucks...

10.) What cell phone company do you use?
- insert witty joke about your self phone company and either how bad the service is, or reference a commercials - congratulations, you just grew a personality.

11.) What color is your hair brush?
A question worthy of the toilet. This survey is definitely meant solely as a time filler, it's like a little scavenger hunt around your house... you run to where you keep your comb; bedroom, bathroom, comb closet... and then report back to your computer to type in your findings.

12.) Do you watch the Super Bowl?
Yea I love sports because I am socially popular and generally like things that are generally liked!

13.) What about World Cup?
What's that... better wikipedia that so I can honestly respond by saying yes and referencing what sport it is.

14.) What about the world series?
On MAN!!! Phinally Pthe Phillies Phucking One It! I use PH's to express how big of a fan I am... because it can't properly be expressed with F's! I didn't even know PH could make an F sound with the exception of Philadelphia!

15.) Do you sleep with a teddy bear?
Who cares...

16.)What is the last movie you watched?
type a funny or popular movie here... it's not actually the last movie you watched... just something you put to catch someone's attention in hopes they will respond... or secretly feel more connected to you because they like it too

17.) What movie do you think everyone should watch?
Here you'll type a movie that seems deep, so you can seem like a deep and thoughtful person
but really you just want to type death race.

18.)What is your middle name?
irrelevant... no one will ever care.

19.) Do you have your future children's names picked out?
type one for girl/boy... hope someone of the opposite gender sees and responds... and congratulations, you've just met your soul mate... thanks myspace!

20.) Do you have to drive over a bridge to get home?
I hope it collapses next time you use it survey creator

21.)What brand is your computer printer?
again... back to the scavenger hunt b/s.... this question is the pits.

22.)Who was your Kindergarden teacher?
Wow, can't remember her name... but I can insert an ancient inside joke from my longest time best friend lololololol

23.) Are you taller than your mom?
who cares

24.) Do you have any bruises right now?
Insert interesting story about how you got your bruise - emphasize how much your life sucks if it happened at work, how athletic you are if you were playing sports, or how stupid you are if it's from a significant other.

25.) Are you cold right now?
someone I'm attracted to should definitely come cuddle with me.

26.)Do any of your close friends have kids?
they can do whatever they want who gives a shit

27.)Do you know anyone who is pregnant right now?
see above

28.)What is the closest red object to you?
I wish it was blood from your face. Look around the room, be aware of your surroundings... oh man! so interesting!

29.) What is your favorite video game?
Sports Game or Grand Theft Auto... if it's neither of those, no one will care so you won't even bother.

30.) Do you play games on your cell phone?
Actually... lacking a comment for this one... damn.

31.) Do you look more the your mom or dad?
make it seem like you care about your parents as more than just money/food supplying objects. Fooled you... everyone!

32.) Have you ever broken an pinata?
Actually this is a funny story, but no... this question is bullshit.

33.)Do you have an iPod or Mp3 player?
Same shit, who cares we all listen to music

34.)If someone doesnt like you its probably because:
Person fails to find any flaw of their own and blames it entirely on that person... maybe something is wrong with them.

35.) Who was the last person in your bedroom?
Insert boy or girl to cause some draaaama. Or a family member... because you're boring.

36.) What are your plans for this weekend:
insert something fun to make people jealous or make yourself seem popular
or type nothing in hopes someone will read it and send out an offer.

37.) Have you ever crawled through a window?
funny story or no... either way, you're still not interesting

38.)Do you lose your keys often?
no or funny story... again... boring

39.)When was your last encounter with the police?
Either A. Reference how smooth you are for staying out of trouble
or B.) talk about your last issue with the police, mentioning of course... how alcohol or pot were involved and how cool you are for being in an alcohol/pot environment.

40.) Do you always wear your seatbelt in the car?
awful question, uninteresting... there go 40 questions, 20 minutes of my life... ef this

Your Tattoo is Stupid...

2008-12-15T15:48:00.000-05:00

I've realized throughout my life... that there are some things people talk to me about... that I will never truly give a shit about.
It can't be helped... people just think some aspect of their life is so interesting that other people care... so they tell others about it... but nobody wants to hear it.
Here's a list of a few things people tell me that I will never care about.

Your Heritage - This is my number one! the biggest fucking nuisance that people think others care about. I hate listening to people tick off percentages and fractions that have no meaning... someone told me once that they were an 11th jewish... what does that even mean? you're probably an 11th jewish and 10-11th's uninteresting douche-bag. Your numbers and "nationalities" have no meaning at all... you were born in America, your parents were born in America... you're American... you're a boring, white American kid. Then some people think they have like... unique heritages... like "I've actually got (some random American Indian tribe) in me... "oh wow, you're so complex, magical and natural you've got a useless fraction of Native American in you. Like I'm really interested in the fact that some distant relative of yours raped some helpless young Indian girl.... and was willing to keep the rape child in the family.... you're so interesting.
Here is what I hear whenever someone tells me about their heritage - "I have ancestors that were from places..."
You know who else has ancestors who were from places?
I'm sure you can figure it out...
Everyone, with maybe the exception of test tube babies... has ancestors... from places.
aaannnd the test tube babies have a much more interesting origin story than any of you.

Your Tattoos - I hate nitwits that talk about their tattoos like they have any kind of deep and significant meaning. They don't. People claim to get tattoos for themselves, yet they get them in obvious areas where people notice and ask about them... and then they have a story about it... yeah I'm sure you got it just for yourself. You just got it because it's quicker than developing a personality. And they never have any real meaning behind them either... lets take my sister's friend for example, who was blah-bragging about her stupid tattoo of Marilyn Monroe... she said something along the lines of how she got it "to commemorate and remember her grandmom." Oh wow... you're so caring, and deep and interesting... chances are she never had more than a 5 minute conversation with her grandmother. And if she had, she probably would've realized that her grandmother and most of her grandmother's generation would be petrified and disgusted by tattoos... chances are, her grandmother died when she tried to tell about getting this travesty of a tattoo... so then she said it was for it.
Whatever, your tattoo is stupid, it has no real meaning... just like your shitty existence... I hope it gets seared off in a terrible ironing accident.

Your Sex Life - Sometimes people I know, think I give a shit about their sex lives... now, don't get me wrong... horror and humor stories I LOVE to hear... when something goes terribly or hilariously wrong during sex... I'm down to listen... but when you just think I wanna hear who you've had sex with, or where you've had sex, or how many people you've banged... I have absolutely no desire to hear about it. Why would I care? I care so little about people's sex lives... I can't even continue to elaborate on how little I care... I just don't give a shit... when you fuck someone famous let me know... but until then... don't give a shit, there is nothing noteworthy or interesting about your love life. You know what... how about... from now on, whenever someone tells me about their sex life, I'm just going to assume they're coming onto me...

Brain Fart... I will finish this another time... because I know I have more to say.

Too Mad To Come Up With Witty Title

2008-11-27T22:42:00.000-05:00

Yesterday I hung out with my cousin who I haven't seen for about 5 months.
It stinks, we're really good pals who have a lot in common but we never really get to hang out.
So I did what every friend does when he hasn't seen one of his best friends in a while does... I went to work with him.
Haha, random stupid story... but I want to get to the real point.
to pass the time while he did actual work, I had to read the Celebrity Rags around his office...
And god are those things awful...
Allow me to elaborate on my hatred of famous people, the media, and the shitty people who respond to this bullshit medium.

One article had to do with Tara Reid... and how she's been going through life, "horribly disfigured" from her botched plastic surgery. This article got all intimate and deep with her about how she's trying to live with her scars, and how difficult it's been for her to get work.
You know what, I don't really have too much sympathy for the victims of bad plastic surgery.
This perfectly pretty woman, decided she wasn't happy with the thought of millions of American Men cranking it to her photos in Maxim, and her attractiveness in movies. Also, her huge movie star pay checks weren't enough to make her feel any better... so she had to go, and try to get surgery to make herself look and feel better.
Great... great idea.
I have no sympathy for your fucked up boob job.
If anything, it should be a felony to ruin such respectable breasts... what a fool.
Then she goes and gets shitty work done on her stomach...
all 105 lbs of her worrying how her stomach looks.
Like she can't get a personal trainer, or work out every day... you know how hard the celebrity work year is... working 90 days a year with millions to show for it.
So then her stomach surgery goes awry and she has these weird fucking scars on her chest.
But I have no sympathy for her... no one should. Fuck her...
She let the shitty media get to her, she went nuts... she tried to improve on her already perfectly fine body, it was ruined... good, I think we all learned a lesson.
There should be no sympathy... fuck her, get over it.

Then there's this other broad, who's name I didn't bother to learn cause I don't really know her from anything. She was in Dream Girls, apparently won an Oscar, and recently a few members of her family were murdered.
And all these magazines are talking about... "how she's coping," "what shes going through..." blah blah blah....
I mean, yes violent crime, murder are HORRIBLE things, but guess what... she's not the only victim of violent crime in this country. Since you've covered this story for the past 4 months, how many other families have been destroyed due to violence like this?
I honestly don't care how she's coping... I wanna hear from the low income families, that are literally devastated and destroyed due to violent crime.
Where the kids go into crime and drugs cause they can't cope and they don't have proper guardianship... and no one can afford to take care of them.
Fucking dumb celebrities, crying for my sympathy.
Then Oprah is mentioned as lending her support.
Oh thank goodness Oprah, you always save the day... with your throwing money and care into the direction of someone already getting money and care, and giving so much to people... yeah... your whole audience really needs new cars, that money used to get those cars definitely couldn't have gone into who knows how much food for less fortunate, or who knows how much it could have renovated a homeless shelter.
How charitable of you...

Then of course EVERY fucking magazine has to go into depth about the love triangle of Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Anniston. Like i give a fuck how many foreign children Jolie is adopting, and how hard Anniston is trying to find a man to replace Brad. Fuck these people... I don't give a shit... at all...
One magazine had a poll "Do you approve of Jennifer Anniston's Dating John Mayer?"
62% said no, 37% said yes, and 1% said, " I don't even know these people they're rich assholes why would I even give a fuck?"
I was obviously part of the last 1% which I made up.
Is that really a poll? who are these people really checking these websites and responding.
"John Mayer is totally not for Jennifer...gabba gabba heyyy."

You people need real friends, hobbies, and interests....

And if you're wondering why, since I hate these magazines and celebrities so much... would I even bother to look at them?
Obviously because I knew they'd piss me off to the point that I'd make a blog entry.

Proposition 8 My Ass

2008-11-18T15:47:00.000-05:00

Is gay marriage really a political issue?
It's one person marrying another person...
It's not polygamy.
It's not people marrying animals, food or objects.

It's one individual... marrying another individual.

Who cares what the church says... if they don't like it, then who cares... don't let gays marry in a church or by a priest. I'm sure they'll live with it... the church already doesn't like them, I'm sure they won't be offended by them not viewing their marriage as legit.

But State? Government... are you really gonna deny a one on one person marriage?
There's no excuse to not do it.

None.

I Hate Couples

2008-11-18T15:14:00.000-05:00

So yesterday, I walk out of my class and directly in front of me in the hallway is this couple, deeply and passionately making out.
Just... gross, and inappropriate... and to me, a little pathetic.
Basically I hate couples.
Don't get me wrong, it's not as if I'm squeamish about public displays of affection... I just think, that the hallway of an education building, isn't the kind of place to have your tongues shoved down each others throat.
Why? For what reason do you need to make out here in such a fashion?
"Oh baby, come on... kiss me I have to go to class and I won't get to see you for 50 minutes... 50 dreadful, unbearable minutes"
Ohhh man, how hard that'll be to get through.
Seriously, if I witnessed this same make out session at an airport, where one of them had just walked off a plane after being in Europe for 3 months, and while in Europe they almost cheated on their significant other with some kinky European, but then before they did the deed they realized that their special one back home was the only one for them so they stopped... and so this homecoming is really emotional.
I'd totally understand, it would be adorable to me... I'd photograph or film it for them, would retell the story in enthusiasm, it'd be fantastic.
But really, here in this situation... they're just overly-physical, mushy douche bags.

Couples are the WORST.

I hate when you're around those couples that just need to be touching all the time.
For whatever reason... maybe when they aren't physically linked in some way they weaken. Who knows...
Or the couples that always have to come in a complete package.
You can't do something with just the one of them, they need to be together...
Or people, who need to like get permission to go out and do something...
"Oh... what's that honey, I can't do anything if you can't... alright that sounds reasonable... sorry guys I can't go out because my girlfriend has work and it's not fair for me to have fun while she works..."
Sounds healthy.

Ugh...

Another thing I can never stand is when a guy will never shut up about how great his girlfriend is, and how everyone needs to meet her.
That's so gay... listening to him, "You guys... you have to meet her she's so great."
Chances are, if she was as great as you claim her to be, you'd have more competition for her... and probably wouldn't have her at all.
You're probably the only person who thinks she's great... we don't care, we don't even wanna meet her, if you didn't coerce her into hanging out with us we'd never see her... and it'd be no loss.
Then she comes to hang out, and everyone is let down because she's not great at all. She doesn't say anything... or she like gets mad at you or your friends for poor behavior or offensive jokes... and you guys get in a fight about it later.
Now both of you look like assholes, because she's not great at all... not even a little, and you... just look like an overly-attached douche.

You know who has the best girlfriends, the guy who... you're not even sure is dating anyone. He just randomly shows up with his girl and everyone's like "I didn't even know, did you know..."
She's usually really cool and laid back, and everyone generally likes her and finds her to be a very agreeable person.

But... as I was saying.
Don't do these things people...
Don't be in a mushy douchey unbearable couple...
Make out in private.
Spend time apart.
And ALWAYS be aware that no one outside your relationship really gives a shit about it (Except maybe your parents or offspring).

Facebook This

2008-11-14T01:46:00.000-05:00

Today at about 10:30 in the morning, I was at the library because I needed to finish a paper for my noon o'clock class. But... I figure I walked around the library for about 20 minutes looking for a computer...
I found one, and then it wouldn't log me in, so that was frustrating...
and then there were a few I was getting ready to pounce on because I saw body language which suggested to me that the person was getting ready to get up... but I was wrong, twice... so that sucked.
Finally, I was lucky enough to be walking by a computer as a girl was finishing up, and she told me she'd be done in a minute so that was nice of her... I finally got a computer.

During my hour of schoolwork however, I noticed two girls a few computers down from me were just sitting at their individual computers, both on facebook.... both sending text messages and chattering amongst themselves.
And I started to think.... "What, the fuck...."
11am on Tuesdays and Thursdays is probably one of the busiest times at the library, there are no classes being held... and a lot of people have shit to do.
A lot of people are blatantly walking around looking for computers they need... to do work.
And these fucking inconsiderate slobs are sitting their on facebook... scrolling through people's pictures and leaving comments for all their besties.
"OMG I'm at the liberry, soooooo bored lolololol."
Fuuuuuucckkkkkk that.
Are you people really so self-concerned and oblivious of your surroundings that you'll sit at computer for an hour, with nothing to do... and just find useless shit to do on facebook?
Like... it's one thing if you're at the library for a few hours, and you go on the face for a minute, you know... give your brain a break, I've done it... we all do once in a while, just a minute of mental relaxation.
But EVERY time during this hour when I looked over, these girls were still on facebook! Every fucking time!
That's two computers going to waste...
That's at least two people who couldn't finish typing up or printing up a paper because these nitwits had to comment on so'and'so's latest album
"OMG!!! I did that last nite, i was soooo druuunkk lololol"
you useless fuck.

Fucking computers, they limited our paper usage because students apparently weren't responsible or smart enough to print things conservatively, who knows what shitty nonsense people were printing up and not using and wasting.
Now supposedly the lab in Lytle, the building I have all of my English classes in, is only accessible to math majors... that's great, last time I was in there those O-so busy math majors were hunched together in the back row of computers playing world of warcraft.
It's okay, I didn't have anything important to do on the computer... just registering for classes... not nearly as important as the latest raid.
Whatever, fuck them...
But, since they can limit how much people print on the computers, and can even limit which majors can use specific labs...
I don't see why we can't get an anti-facebook app on there.
After so many minutes on facebook, a boot just comes out of the screen and kicks you in the face...
sounds awesome
because I know every fucking time I'm walking through the library in desperate need to do work or print something... I want to kick every slob on facebook in the back of the head.

Vote Note

2008-11-03T22:07:00.000-05:00

I didn't register to vote.
Essentially because every source of information out there is biased.
Every registering table or person on campus was trying to talk me into their candidate
every person walking around trying to promote the vote is bragging about their candidate.
Why can't we have just a simple task force of people who go around and tell you to vote... but don't demand you vote for anyone in particular.
It just annoys me that... I can't find any unbiased source of information... so I'm too angry to vote.

But now that voting day is here... I've realized that I was wrong!
I should have registered to vote!
solely so I can feel as if I've negated a stupid persons vote, by voting the counter-choice to their vote.
Because, 1-1 vote goes back to zero, so that persons vote has gone to waste...
Honestly, in the end elections probably only come down to like 1000 actual meaningful votes. (completely on the spot statistic, but you get the general idea)

I see every damn person I know on facebook, myspace, just generally on campus... talking, noting, bulletining about it... and it annoys the shit out of me.
Some people are too stupid to vote...
and it's not even about disagreeing with the person they chose, because I've honestly hated people going for either side... they're just too dumb to make real decisions.

I've been compiling a mental list of people who I think are too dumb to vote...

For example, last semester while walking to class I heard someone say
"I just feel bad for people who weren't raised reading the Bible."
I have no idea what the context of that conversation was, but hearing it... and imagining that person voting annoys the shit out of me.

People who watch and really get into shows like the Hills get to vote... yeah. You know that really stupid, shallow show about the worst people in society... the fans of that who are 18 can vote. Ugh... the people in that show can vote. I'm pretty disappointed these people have rights.
Actually I'm kind of mad about a whole generation of reality shows and fans that get opinions. Flava Flav and the ignorant slobs that try to marry him in every season of his shitty show get votes? No thanks, put them on a bus and sink it into the deepest trenches of the sea....

The shitty people that come into Wawa can vote! The fucking big dumb meatheads that come in every week... but refuse to learn how to use the touch screens... they get an opinion. Yeah, the opinion of someone who can't even figure out how to touch a picture of what they want on a screen, matters... it shouldn't. You don't need a vote.

My sister could vote... that's a disaster. The person who took up smoking despite our grandparents all being taken down my lung complications from it. Great, our parents have been smoking and warning us how dumb they are for doing it all our lives but she took it up anyhow... what a dumb asshole. She doesn't need a vote.

Or how about, people who are going to vote a certain way because of celebrities. Oh wow, Bruce Springsteen and Oprah endorse Obama... I better vote for him. No... no don't take celebrity opinions. Vote because you can think about issues and develop opinions... if you can't... Don't Vote.

The guy in my class that didn't know there was a country called Georgia, and thought the Georgia issue earlier this semester was actually a Russian attack on the American State, Georgia... no.. you certainly don't get a vote.

I would LOVE, my friends that contributed to my list of people who don't deserve to vote... because I'm too frustrated to keep adding them right now...

But yes friends!
As you can see my opinions have taken a complete 360...
Before I was so angry at the presidential circus I didn't want anything to do with voting
but now I realize... if all of us smarter people get too frustrated to make choices... then all the shitty dumb people will end up making choices for us
and that's just terrible.
So get out and vote today! (granted you're an intelligent person)

Just General Loathing

2008-10-27T22:23:00.000-04:00

Sometimes I get ideas for posts... and never really follow through with them.
And it kind of stinks... because I never properly vent my frustration and anger about what I'm annoyed or pissed about.
So here are some of the things with brief explanations...
I may eventually get around to doing a full post on them... but right now I'd like to just let off a little steam and summarize my loathing for them.

Sarah Palin - If you asked me what I thought about this woman... well... first you'd get a huge groan out of me. Then I would say... "what a dope." This woman represents everything I hate about the presidential election media coverage. Actually... she is everything I hate. There are people voting for McCain solely because Palin's being a woman, or because they like or agree with her. Agree with her! Her only politics include "I'm a hockey mom," "Joe six-pack," and "pro-life." AND despite this woman being strictly pro-life and having no consideration for human overpopulation she struts around bragging about being pro-guns and shoots at animals saying they are overpopulated. What a hypocrite. Not only that but she represents all of the hypocrisy of politics by being brought in by McCain as a vice-presidential candidate... McCain who said Obama was inexperienced, this woman has like 6 weeks of political experience. What a dump.

Sports Fans Who Cry - I grew up in Philadelphia, currently live in its Suburbs and go to school an hour away from Philly so I've been around fans of the Phillies for the past few weeks during their rise into the World Series. I personally don't really care about sports, but I do think it is generally pretty exciting so I've been watching games. However, I rack my fucking brains at the idea of these fans who sit there with their head in the hands during stressful games. People fucking, facing the most anxiety in their whole life over a fucking game, and I'm seeing people cry... what the fuck. People fucking crying because their favorite sports team doesn't win the championship, so they can't say their team is the best for the next 8 months. Too bad... why don't you try crying about something meaningful... or maybe something you actually did yourself? I dunno... I guess I just can't relate to a bunch of over-payed schmucks who aren't even from the cities they represent who play games for a living and who have sex with every girl they meet because broads love dudes who are either athletes or on TV and especially both. The only excuse you have to be crying over a baseball game is if you bet this months rent money on it, and they lose... you're broke... your wife leaves you and you kids start doing coke and have sex with each other to feel better about it, get a hobby you loser.

Comedy Central - Actually I love this channel, but I'm pretty mad at them because they took Futurama from Adult Swim and threw off my pleasant schedule I've had the last 6 years of my life. They bought Futurama and put it on at 9pm every night... which is so shitty compared to adult swim's classic 11pm and 2am repeat. Who watches tv at 9pm? Fucking shitty time slot. Then these comedy central people proceed to show Colbert and Jon Stewart fucking 5 times a day, filling nearly a third of their daily schedule since they go off-air at like 3am. What a bunch of useless chumps. Meanwhile Adult Swim broadcasts two episodes of Family guy a night, which adds to the 6 hours of that I can catch elsewhere daily on tbs and the wb/upn merger that no one gives a shit about. Fuck shitty TV scheduling. Maybe Comedy Central should learn how to put Colbert/Stuart online or ondemand if people need to see it so god damn bad every night... and don't even get me started on over an hour of mad-TV every day!

Apple... and Apple Commercials - I have an I-pod... and I generally enjoy it, it stores an abundance of CD's for me and allows me to listen to them. But with Mac-Books and I-Phone and Excessive Advertising and Sucker Douche bags who go for all this shit I've had enough. Last week I heard my roommate who has both a laptop and PC in his room comment on a mac-book commercial "I might get that." Why... you don't fucking need it, you're just a sucker for advertising. Apple just broadcats these fucking commercials, that convince people having their shit is so cool. Oh Wow! An I-Phone... you can go on Facebook with it... buy it. Wow, let me respond to that. How About, firstly it's not the only phone with the internet, and secondly... why do you dumb assholes always need to be on facebook or the internet anyway. Also notable, is this fucking Emblem thing I keep hearing about for the I-Phone. Where you apparently pay 1000 bucks and get a fucking logo in the corner of your i-phone screen. It's a fucking status symbol, you pay 1000 bucks for an image on a screen and I think the fact that this shit exists best exemplifies the shittiness of the culture of people who need Apple/Mac shit for no particular reason other than being suckers for ads.

That's just a few ideas... maybe I'll stay mad at those things and elaborate... or maybe I'll just leave it at that and move onto newer topics.

Oops I Forgot to Register to Vote

2008-10-07T23:05:00.000-04:00

Besides not registering to vote due to my lack of interest in politics... I made a point of not registering... not even considering taking the time to think about thinking about voting... solely out of spite because I hate the entire... motivating college students to vote committee.

I hate that every person who stops you and asks if you've registered to vote has a pin on their lapel or a sticker on their clip-board of who they're voting for.
And while you're registering they're preaching all about how their choice is the right choice and blah blah blah... you know.
I hate that celebrities try to motivate the younger crowd to vote... fucking C celebrities coming to my school trying to impress students with their fucking nobody presence to get them to register. They were probably blabbing about their preferred choice too... assholes.
I remember P Diddy a few years back... with his "Vote or Die" promotion... yeah that's who I want to try to motivate me to think politically and vote... some rich, know-nothing asshole that sings... doesn't even sing... rather talks about women and parties and shit over bass centered beats.
Really? Are these really the people we want voting... people who will do it because a guy they saw on tv once is telling them it's a good idea...
I don't want that person to vote, even if that person does include news and political debates in their tv nights... your motivation to vote should not be to win brownie points with someone who was on a tv show you didn't even actually watch...

I'm also pretty annoyed in general about facebook/myspace posts all about... concerned that everyone is registered to vote... who they'll be voting for... etc.
Some of you people... I wouldn't even trust to pick a piece of candy for me out of the candy aisle at Wawa.. let alone choose someone to lead a country.
god damn nitwits.
I'm not interested in your political opinions... I'm genuinely not even interested in you. Just because you mention you've registered to and plan to vote doesn't make you any more intellgient. I am genuinely disappointed you get to have an opinion and a vote. But don't vote because you want to seem intellectual... I can see through your shitty ploy... you're not knowledgeable or anything... you just wanna put out vague ideas and opinions and try to impress people in the camp of "your party," so you don't seem like a fucking useless douche.

I'm just sending out a public service announcement...
If someone you know, was motivated to vote because a celebrity told them too... or because they saw everyone else doing it and didn't wanna be left out.
Just come Election Day... maybe... clock them over the head with a wrench or something...
Put em out for a day or two... leave the voting to people who didn't decide to do it because Oprah says go Obama or their Religion says they need to vote Palin.
Or just make public of my threat and hope they stay indoors...

What I Really really... really wanna say is...
don't vote because it's "the thing" to do.
Yes it is important that people vote and care about politics...
But seriously... if you're doing it to fit in, or because you were pressured by the media... don't
celebrities don't need to tell anyone they need to vote... we're aware there's an election. Stay out of it celebrities...
so listen...
if you don't have a genuine desire to vote because you believe in someone's politics and ideas... then what are you voting for?

Iraq, the New Crusade

2008-10-07T00:13:00.000-04:00

We were talking about the Crusades in my Medieval Lit class.
And we were basically discussing how one of the motives to start the crusades was to just get all of these reckless, violent knights out of the country.
Europe was just filled with these fucking meat bag knights running around fighting one another causing all kinds of trouble... so eventually the Church came up with these Crusade ideas and... they sent these knights off to fight actual villains rather than each other... you know... actual villains... like non-Christians.
I'm not saying it was the only incentive, but it was a funny one

Because I immediately thought of today... and how maybe our Iraq war has some ideas founded in emptying our country of meat heads.
No offense to my military trained friends who could beat the shit out of me, but just in general... guys who walk around and high five, and lift weights... and then get drunk and curb stomp people... meat heads who are good for nothing but being just, dudes... guys meant for the military.
Think about it, we're in a war but I still see a ton of them everywhere... if we weren't in Iraq would we just be in meat-head overload?
Would sports bars and hummer dealerships just have dudes spilling out of their doors because these meat heads would have nothing better to do?
It's just something to think about really...
Next time you're walking through a sports stadium parking lot and you see a bunch of Frat guys wearing their letters and drinking out of boots... just think... if it weren't for war... that number of guys could be doubled... or tripled.
And that would mean, 2/3x's the smell of axe body spray or body wash, 2/3x's more tacky shirts with some kind of beer logo or at least a word alluding to alcohol abuse... and 2/3x's random acts of violence due to alcohol abuse, or just because people are too dumb to know better.

More on the KU Smoking Ban

2008-09-29T23:48:00.000-04:00

Because I think I will always find something to be bitter and resentful towards... I decided I'd add more to my degrading commentary on the Smokers still complaining on my campus.
This past week I read an article in our school newspaper against the ban... while the person's heart may have been in the right place... i still threw the newspaper out thinking that person was a complete dope.

"You can't make smoking illegal on campus... because it is a culture, and you shouldn't oppress a culture."
Not a direct quote obviously, since i disposed of the paper in my disgust. But the person generally had this kind of idea going...

So essentially, people think the smoking ban shouldn't stick... because everybody does it.
Because it is socially acceptable and so standard for people to smoke... why should there be rules against it.
ugh.. what a nitwit.
Drinking is something 90% of people do and people are addicted to... but you don't see me walking around with a beer on my dry campus... mumbling and grumbling about how everyone does it, and I disagree with the rule, and it's socially acceptable and a culture.
Fuckk you...

Listen, people were allowed to smoke on all the campuses... but you were supposed to smoke 25 feet away from building entry-ways.
But... people didn't do that, they stood right in the doorways... especially in the rainy and cold weather... they stand right outside the doors.
Now, since... no one can be considerate enough to move away from the doorways there are rules banning smoking on campuses... that's what you get.
You people couldn't even walk 25 feet... now you need to walk off campus. Good!
But since you disagree with the rule, you continue to smoke at the building doorways.... that's the most you're going to do to defend your position... that and join a facebook group.

If you people are so passionate about smoking, and your culture... maybe you can do more than rebel by smoking closer to the buildings now and making claims that it shouldn't be against the rules because everyone's doing it... these are the exact same approaches 8th graders take in similar situations.

So maybe you can make a petition... or maybe get representation in Student Government Board and make an argument against it for all the PA schools, (another article in my paper noted how no one showed up or brought that topic up at SGB) who knows... maybe I'll represent you and get my Smoker Box installed on campuses... or maybe we can at least get some Gazebo's or Cages you guys can smoke in...

BTW, if you're a smoker... and you think in my approach I've been rude, or arrogant or whatever... I know... I meant to be.

Opinions Worth Opinionating: KU's Smoking Ban

2008-09-18T13:57:00.001-04:00

Everybody is up in arms about the smoking ban on campus…

While I can kind of sympathize with the students who live in the dorms, or the faculty and administration of the campus… who have to take a hike every time they need a smoke… I also think “hey, get over it.”

Every person has some stupid shitty comment to make about fairness or rights, and all I can think is… “Shut up.”

Everyone thinks that they made this law because they want to force people to not smoke. NO! it’s more along the lines of... it’s a huge public area… there are people here who choose not to smoke (smart people with will-power) and they shouldn’t have to suffer second hand smoke at the doorway to EVERY building on campus…

Because that’s what the smoking community does… they create a barrier cloud of doom at the entrance to every campus buildings… and that is interfering with the non-smokers’ rights to fresh… clean… non-smoker polluted air.

Now I have to put up with the same assholes who smoke outside the buildings… doing it now purely out of spite… feeling like they’re fucking bad asses… getting away with everything. What a bunch of dumps.

Also I have to listen to shitty commentary along the lines of, “Oh hey… candy’s bad for you… maybe they will ban candy next… or how about McDonalds.” (Actual comments I heard outside a building of education.)

Oh wow, check this fella out… he should be on the debate team with lines like that.

Hey moron… I don’t know about you but I’ve never heard of second hand diabetes or a second hand heart attack. Real mature you dumb douche… I can’t believe you go to college… I really hope it was your first week, you’re awful…

It’s just really funny that every god damn smoker is whining about how inconsiderate the system is to them… even though they’re the ones who are being inconsiderate… smoking in building doorways and sitting in classrooms reeking of cigarettes forcing discomfort on those who are disgusted by the smells and smogs of the habit.

I really don’t care if you smoke… do whatever the fuck you want… but if you’re going to continue to smoke on campus against the rules… at least do it in a field or away from moving masses of people… or at least avoid me so I don’t kick you in the shin while you do it in the doorway of the library mumbling how no one is actually going to do anything about it.

And finally, I just want to comment how hilariously awful it is that such a high number of students will mobilize against the creation of a rule that doesn’t allow them to smoke… but this near 10,000 Student University can hardly turn out 100 people for a Breast Cancer Walk. What a good group of people…

Get to know me, by knowing what I hate

2008-09-05T11:11:00.000-04:00

I’m aware that there are those people who read this blog religiously, but aren’t entirely aware of who I am or what exactly I represent.

So what better way to show this… then by blogging about something I don’t know about… and something I don’t really discuss... which is politics.

It should be the big thing to blog about right now, this year will be my first chance to vote… and it’s a really big election. However, I don’t really follow politics at all… so I don’t really think I should vote, nor should I blog about things I don’t have genuine opinions on… because I don’t read news or watch conventions… or really give much of a shit.

But I dislike politics with good reason… it’s not that I’m not bright enough, or don’t believe myself bright enough to follow politics… I just hate liars.

And that’s pretty much all politics is… picking someone who you think is lying to you the least.

Listening to politics for me… is the equivalent of listening to some cheesy creep guy trying to pick up a girl by sweet talking her.

It’s disgusting to listen to because he’s saying stuff like “your eyes are so beautiful… you’re the best girl ever... there’s no one else like you… you do something to me that no other girl ever could do…”

You hear all of this… and you know there is no way this guy is genuine he is just trying to rock her shit.

He is clearly just trying to fuck and exploit her for his own benefit.

And this is the exact same shit that goes on with politics… we hear everything good that we want to hear, but never elaborations on the real politics of anything… just what sounds and looks good in the media.

Then we have commercials and ads with all kinds of He Said/ She Said bullshit. Where instead of someone actually talking about their party’s politics or ideologies we just listen to them contradict and bash the rivaling party. It’s like I’m in a gossipy all girl high school…

Can’t anyone just say something honest…

But I don’t wanna hear any of that “Looking to make changes… wanna change the world” bullshit either... that's definitely not honest.

Politicians don’t give a shit about changes… just success and profits, if change happens while they look for that… they get some extra credit for that.

But no politicians legitimately care about changes, and it’s too bad because the people who do actually want change… are just viewed as goof-balls cause they’re sitting on lawns… eating tufts of grass and complaining about global warming and world famine and exploitation.

These people aren’t exactly legitimately doing anything to push the change… just blogging, writing some books they don’t advertise because they disagree with commercialism and whatnot… blah blah blah you get it...

I think I made my point clear… I just hate dishonest, exploitative, career-concerned politics.

Not Driving Gives You More Time To Think

2008-09-01T12:10:00.000-04:00

I really enjoy the closeness and convenience of my place to campus this year.
It's less than a mile to get to the furthest point on campus that I'd need to get to.
It's actually .7
Interesting.
Last year I was a little further... and I had to walk up the big ass hill every morning on my way to class... and I'm such a sluggish walker... so I was always a tad bit late for everything...
But this year's so simple... just a short walk... or if I'm running late I hop onto the bike and I'm there in like... 2 minutes... which was the opposite last year because riding my bike uphill to class was exhausting and not any faster than walking.

Don't get the wrong idea though... I'm not here to talk about my pleasant commute to class... but rather all the lazy assholes in town who drive to classes when they live so close to classes.
For example, in just this development of apts that I live in...I've seen dozens of people drive over to campus (perhaps one of my roomies included)... less than TWO blocks... and then drive around the loaded parking lots for 10 minutes looking for a convenient spot.
These same people will:

- Complain about the over-crowding of our campus... they hate that the parking lots aren't big enough to accommodate all of the staff and commuters... and by commuters I mean probably 50% of them live within the town and have less than a mile walk to class.
- Bitch about the traffic in town... including the long lines of cars to get out of the parking lots after class... I honestly love walking through these lines of unmoving cars... filled with people I recognize as living only blocks away...
- Complain about gas prices and cry how broke they are... well at least you're really trying to play it thrifty.
-Complain that college food, and college in general is making them gain weight... well what can you expect when your chowing down on your lunch buffet burgers and fries every afternoon and then insist on driving the quarter mile to class every morning so you can get that extra 8 minutes of sleep.
-Will claim to hate Bush, global warming... and love the idea of going green... well... way to do your part.

And it's not just my campus... it's an overall American trend... every god damn person has something to complain about but will continue to do stupid shit that doesn't help the situation at all... because they'd rather have ease and convenience.
That all I really needed to say... I don't wanna go on an overly preachy rant

Greek Life... a Club for people who want to be in a club

2008-08-21T21:06:00.000-04:00

Fuck the movie, "College."
Fuck it's shitty depiction of college
Fuck the hollywood idea that colleges are completely "Greek Life" driven
Fuck the stupid nobody kids who actually managed to act in this shitty film...
and that stupid fucking nobody from nickelodeon.. ugh

It's so stupid... why do "College" movies insist on depicting college as some huge party, where people continue to form into very specific social cliques... just like in high school... but under the title of Frats and Sororities.
Now... I'm not going to generalize for all colleges... because honestly... I don't know... but Frats and Sororities certainly are not the cornerstone of a social life at my college.
Not at all

Sororities for example... work like this.
2 or 3 bitchy bossy girls decide to start a sorority... solely because they miss High School and being the most popular girl, the prettiest, the captain of the cheerleading squad... they desire to start a group because in the larger college arena... no one gives a shit about them.
So they start a sorority.
They invite other girls to join, but not anymore bitchy bossy girls... because they are the bitchy bossy ones... they started this sorority to run the show.
So they take in naive freshman, a couple weakly social older students, and one... weird girl.. you know, with like a mustache or something to make it seem like they aren't turning people away based on looks.
So they have all these girls that look up to them, and follow them... they feel important... people notice them as the leaders of a squadron of girls.
Then they all spend time together... the bitchy bossy girls love being the center of something... and eventually before graduating apprentice the next 2 or 3 bitchy bossy ringleaders.

No one outside the sorority gives a shit about it... it doesn't matter...
it's just a useless bunch of tables being pushed together during lunch... so all the girls can sit together and look involved... but really be in 6 different cliques within their useless clique.
People aren't pining to be involved...
There isn't a group of girls turned away from the sororities who form their own ugly girl sorority...
nobody gives a shit..
because nobody wants to pay to be involved with a bunch of nobodies who have to apply to be part of a group of friends.

as for frats.
pretty much the same thing.
a bunch of nobody guys who have no real use in college... miss being noticed and start a frat.
However, this group is less set on "leading males" and more set on just having a bunch of cool guys around you.
You apply to see if you're up to drinking beer and watching football with these guys (and paying to call it a frat) and once a year doing one community service thing so it doesn't seem completely pointless.
These guys don't "Run" the college...
these guys aren't throwing THEE parties to go to.
Yeah right... "THEE" parties to go to involve them inviting as many freshman girls as they can over and trying their hardest to impress them with their apartment and their ability to drink.
After 2 months into school.. .even the dumb frosh girls are over them and the only people who care about their existence are the few frosh guys who can't wait to join so they can take part in this binge next year...

I love to criticize Greek Life because I have no desire to be involved in it.
There's no point...
There are tons of clubs and sports on campus...
Those are REAL groups.
Greek Life to me is "A Club For People Whose Only Interest Is To Be In a Club"

As for the fact that it looks good on a resume...
It does actually...
But I think it has more to do with the fact that Employers see you as an easy to control sheep.

Death Race... a Dick Flick for the Ages

2008-07-28T15:33:00.001-04:00

Now, if you haven't seen the trailer for the Death Race yet, I suggest you watch it immediately.

As soon as i saw this trailer, I just saw the image of a bunch of guys sitting around a board-room, and discussing "the perfect dude movie."

One guy says, "dudes love cars", another guy seconds, "hot chicks," and other guys chimed in; guns, cars, sports and so on.

Finally these brilliant men put together the script for Death Race.
We have a corrupt prison warden who has her inmates compete in a no holds barred race to win their freedom. And, conveniently... she has just taken in a NASCAR racer who has just been arrested for the murder of his wife. She insists he play her game, and despite the fact that he may have been framed (the trailer, didn't try to keep any secrets apparently, no need to be curious about a plot in this movie) and is in no way a murderer... he has no problem competing in and potentially killing other inmates involved.. not to mention kicking guys asses in prison with his NASCAR... ultimate fighting jujitsu moves. Aside from driving a car with machine guns and Bond-esc trick devices attached to it... they also get paired up with a woman-inmate "Navigator" (because I'm sure these inmates with their death machine vehicles are just going to be let loose and may need to mapquest their racing route). These women inmates not only all happen to be smoking hot, but apparently have all the time in the world while in prison to do their hair, make-up and deciding on the hottest outfit they can find.

Ultimately, these guys have put together the biggest boner fest of the summer.
Jager-Bomb lovers around the country will be flocking to the theaters to get a load of this movie...
And despite the fact that I will eventually end up sitting through most of this movie on HBO or something... (likely with my roomate Doug so we can laugh our asses off at its ridiculousness) I just think that everyone who goes this movie... thinking it is legitimately going to be good... great... or awesome... is a fucking dumb meat-head, toolbag... and generally just sucks
I can't even begin to emphasize how much they suck.

Notice how I tried to sarcastically phrase the whole plot of the movie... but it was so terrible... I couldn't even get through the whole thing without making blatant stupid observations about it

That's all...

People Are Dull

2008-07-16T21:14:00.000-04:00

People are dull.
It's one thing to drink beers or smoke pot... it's pretty standard nowadays... who cares.
It's another thing to brag about it and make it public knowledge like you're the coolest kid in the 9th grade... we get it... you enjoy indulging in intoxicating affairs... but lets face it... no one's impressed.

It's just so beat...
I overheard a story not too long ago in the Campus eatery that was "Oh man.. last night i went to the bar and I was so drunk I could hardly even count my money."
that was the story...
the main point being... not only can that person gain access to a bar... but they can drink and get tipsy there as well.
Wow... what a tale...
fall out of a window.

I just get really annoyed that these petty "be impressed by me," attitudes still live on into college when fucking everyone and their mom is drinking and smoking up.
If a story starts out "Oh man I was so drunk/high," then it's a bad story.
I'm not saying you can't tell a story about something funny that happened when you was "Crunked" but if you need to mention more than once that alcohol/pot was involved you're really just looking more to impress than to amuse.
Think about it like this... if that girl had told the story about getting drunk and being unable to count her money more like this, "Oh my god, I went to the bar last night... and I couldn't count my money so the bartender stuck his dick in my mouth."
That'd be a great story...
No need to over-explain the your drunk part... I mean you're at the bar... I'll just assume alcohol is involved.
And since the bartender rammed his rod in your mouth... something that is actually amusing happened.
Being unable to count cash isn't amusing... unless it's because you never learned how to count... then it'd be pretty entertaining.
But really... she just brought up the unable to count her money thing to add onto her "so drunk," idea... which was in fact the only thing she really wanted to say.

Another thing... why is drinking/smoking the fucking cornerstone of any social activity anymore?
It's not that I'm mad that you know... the guys always wanna have a few beers when they sit down to watch the game... what I mean is... those people that won't do anything UNLESS there is alcohol in someway related.
For example, when I offered out invitations to my "Chocolate Milk Challenge" earlier this year... which was a friendly competition to see which team of 4 could drink the most gallons of choc. milk... anyway, one friend of mine... who shall go unnamed... had this to say

"If i'm going to over-drink and puke it might as well be beer..."

Oh you mean... beer like every other day of your life.
I get it.. you like to drink... but why don't you try doing something a little more unique and entertaining for a change.
Needless to say that person missed out on a pretty fun experience to drink beer for the 5th time that week by himself in his basement.
But that's okay because drinking beer is much cooler doing... anything else.

Really kids what I'm trying to say is...
If your parents drink beer and smoke pot still... how cool could it really be?

"Freedom of Speech.. unless you hurt someone's feelings"

2008-07-15T23:59:00.000-04:00

Last week Jesse Jackson got in trouble and apologized when he got caught mumbling into a mic he thought was off about how he would like to cut off Obama's nuts.
And earlier this week... Chase Utley got in trouble and apologized after New Yorker's booed him and he mumbled "Fuck you" to them

Well... "fuck you, I wanna cut your nuts off" is exactly what I think and have to say to... well EVERYONE.

I don't get it... we're a country that prides itself on and constantly brags about a Freedom of Speech...
yet every week we have someone on TV apologizing to the whole country for something they said that "wasn't appropriate."

and all this reminds me of shit like Imus.. with his nappy headed ho's comment
and The Dog who went on an N bomb dropping rant.

And they all apologize... not because they're sorry but... to satisfy those 3 people who were legitimately upset about what they said and to get out of the negative spotlight.

It just irritates me.. because it's so shitty and fake.
No one's really sorry for what they said
No one's really hurt by what they said...
I mean shit... Utley saying "Fuck you" to New York...
I'm sure New York was really hurt by that one!
And anything racial that gets said
oh man.
The dog using the N word.. is that hurting the black community
NO.. NO it's not
it makes him look like an asshole.. that's about it
actually his apology made him look like even more of an asshole...
"I thought I was cool enough to get away with it... now I know it hurts their feelings."
What a pot of fucking shit.
and lets face it... if the media didn't jump right on this shit and immediately make it public no one would know about it, care about it, and the people who said it certainly wouldn't have regrets of any kind.

I didn't realize the idea of Freedom of Speech really encompassed
"Freedom of Speech.. unless you hurt someone's feelings"

Me and Kanye... are going at it.

2008-06-25T22:57:00.001-04:00

Kanye West saw my blog and was so offended he responded in his blog... which I imagine has many more readers.
So here is what he typed at his blog on http://www.kanyeuniversecity.com/

I am sick of negative people who just sit around trying 2 plot my downfall... Why???? I understand if people don't like me because I like me or if people think tight clothes look gay or people say I run my mouth to much, But this Bonnaroo thing is the worst insult I've ever had in my life. This is the most offended I've ever been... this is the maddest I ever will be. I'm typing so fucking hard I might break my fucking Mac book Air!!!!!!!! Call me any name you want.... arrogant, conceited, narcissistic, racist, metro, fag whatever you can think of.... BUT NEVER SAY I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL! NEVER SAY I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL! THIS SHOWS NO MATTER HOW HARD YOU TRY TO BE GOOD AT SOMETHING THERE WILL BE PEOPLE THERE TO LIE ABOUT YOU AND BRING YOU DOWN! LIKE WAYNE SAYS PLEASE DON'T SHOOT ME DOWN CAUSE I'M FLYING! I'M FUCKING HURT BY THIS ONE. ALL I CARE ABOUT ARE THE FANS. JUST SAY THIS OUT LOUD IN A ROOM FULL OF PEOPLE, "KANYE DOESN'T CARE ABOUT GIVING A GOOD PERFORMANCE." CAN ANYONE HONESTLY SAY THAT ????????? HAS ANYONE EVEN TAKEN THE TIME TO AT LEAST DO THE MATH??? BONNAROO SHOULD HAVE RELEASED A STATEMENT IN MY DEFENSE BUT SINCE THEY HAVEN'T LET'S BREAK DOWN THE WALLS ON THIS TRUMAN SHOW AND LET YOU KNOW WHAT REALLY OCCURRED!!! FOR OVER A MONTH WE WENT BACK AND FORTH ON WETHER OR NOT WE COULD EVEN FIT MY STAGE AT THE FESTIVAL. ONE DAY THEY WOULD SAY YES... WE'D SEND THEM OUR SPECS THEN THEY THEY'D SAY OK... THEN THEY WOULD SEND SPECS BACK THAT DIDN'T FIT THE STAGE. WE WERE OBVIOUSLY DEALING WITH FUCKING IDIOTS WHO DIDN'T REALLY HAVE THE CAPACITY TO REALLY PUT ON THIS SHOW PROPERLY. THEY TRIED 2 GIVE ME A TIME SLOT WERE IT WAS STILL LIGHT OUTSIDE ... I HAVE A FUCKING LIGHT SHOW DUMB ASS, IT'S NOT CALLED GLOW IN THE DARK FOR NO REASON SQUID BRAINS! MY PEOPLE WORKED OUT A COMPROMISED STAGE PLOT AND A 3AM TIME SLOT AND I AGREED. FAST FOWARD TO THE DAY OF THE SHOW. MY PRODUCTION MANAGER TRIED TO LOAD IN FOR 24 HOURS BEFORE I WENT ON STAGE BUT THE FESTIVAL WOULDN'T ALLOW US TO DO ANYTHING UNTILL PEARL JAM LEFT THE STAGE. PEARL JAM ENDED ONE HOUR
LATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT THAT POINT WE'RE RACING AGAINST THE SUN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! AT 4:20AM DON COMES BACK 2 THE BUS AND TELLS ME, " IT WOULD TAKE 45 MORE MINUTES TO PUT ALL YOUR PYRO IN!" I SAY I HAVE TO GET OUT THERE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE . I HIT THE STAGE AND PEOPLE HAD BEEN THROWING SHIT ON THE STAGE AND HAD ACTUALLY HIT THE JANE SCREEN WITH, I GUESS BOTTLES OR SOMETHING AND HAD BROKEN MY FUCKING SCREEN. REMEMBER WHEN YOU WERE A SHORTY AND WATER WOULD HIT THE TV?????? WHEN I GOT 2 "THROUGH THE WIRE" I STEPPED ON THE FRONT PART OF MY STAGE AND THERE WAS SO MUCH LIQUID ON THE STAGE I COULDN'T MOVE WITHOUT SLIPPING. I HAD TO ADJUST MY WHOLE PERFORMANCE STYLE BECAUSE OF IT. A FEW MORE SONGS IN AND THE SONG WAS ON IT'S WAY UP.. I CUT A FEW SONGS FROM THE SET BECAUSE I WANTED PEOPLE 2 EXPERIENCE STRONGER WHILE THERE WAS STILL SOME DARKNESS TO PERFORM IT IN. I'VE STRUGGLED WITH STRONGER FROM IT'S CONCEPTION. REMEMBER LAST SUMMER WHEN I CANCELED SOME TV APPEARANCES. IT WAS BECAUSE I DIDN'T WANT TO PERFORM STRONGER IN THE DAYTIME. ANYONE WHO CAME TO THE GLOW TOUR CAN UNDERSTAND WHY I WANTED PEOPLE TO SEE IT PROPERLY. IT BROKE MY HEART THAT I COULDN'T GIVE THESE FANS STRONGER IN IT'S GREATEST FORM... BY THE TIME I GOT TO STRONGER IT WAS DAYTIME AND IT BROKE MY HEART. I'M SORRY TO EVERYONE THAT I DIDN'T HAVE THE ABILITY 2 GIVE THE PERFORMANCE I WANTED TO. I'M SORRY... SOMETIMES I GO 2, 3 DAYS W/O SLEEP WORKING ON MY PERFORMANCE... I HAVE TO ICE MY KNEES AFTER EVERY SHOW AND THEY HURT WHEN I WALK THROUGH THE AIRPORT... HAVING AN EXPENSIVE STAGE CUTS MY PAYDAY IN HALF... CALL ME WHAT YOU WANT BUT NEVER SAY I DIDN'T GIVE MY ALL!!!

- Don't let his Graduation CD title fool you...

"you should be honored by my LATENESS, that I would even show up for this fake shit"

2008-06-20T16:48:00.000-04:00

So I'm listening to Opie and Anthony, and Jim Norton goes and mentions how he did The Bonaroo Festival last week and while there... Kanye West turned out to be the biggest cockbag ever.

Apparently, Kanye was scheduled to go on at about 8 one night, on like a secondary side-stage... but that wasn't good enough. So he asked for a spot on the main stage, and for a late night time because he had an impressive light show/glow in the dark set.

So Bonaroo fits him into a 2:45am time slot, after Pearl Jam, which gave him about two hours to take apart Pearl Jams stage and set up his elaborate set.

Anyway... to make a long story short, Kanye West doesn't go on stage til about 4:25am... which gave his awesome light show set... I dunno.. maybe a half hour of full effectiveness?
Well the sun came up shortly afterward, I suppose... I can't remember the last time I was up before the sun... it comes up, I know that much.

Anyhow... the websites I double checked on this story for were littered with excuses from his fans for him... always... not his fault.
- It's Bonaroo's fault.. his contract said he'd go on a certain time.
- It's Pearl Jam's fault... they went over their allotted time
- It's the dumb hicks who work on stage crews fault... they took too long to take apart and set up new sets.
- It's everyone in the worlds fault... except Kanye.

Right... right... I'm sure.
I'm sure the people at Bonaroo completely ignored the terms of the contract for one of their main attractions. Only 40,000 people could have watched him on that secondary stage at 8pm. Apparently Kanye thought every person at that festival was there to see him.
Pearl Jam, yeah.. I'm sure they're the ones responsible... I can see how they'd be responsible since they were one of the main headling bands and they played an extra 40 minutes when... no one was supposed to go on for hours after them. How inconsiderate...
And you know... you're probably right about those roadies, they probably had no idea how to set up those sets... which would have explained why they were asigned those jobs.

You peoople are just fans of a complete asshole and are in denial.
Pearl Jam only played an extra 40 minutes, so that would have given the roadies still an hour and 20 minutes to switch sets... and guess what... Kanye still didn't go on stage for 2 hours and twenty minutes.. so what you're suggesting is that it took over 3 hours for them to make a set transition?

Now, I'm not a fan of Kanye... but I genuinely like everything of his that I've heard... but I HATE... DESPISE!!!... fucking LOATHE... this egocentric, self-importance feeling that celebrities get.
Kanye does not give a SHIT about his fans... and if you need anymore proof... I forgot to mention... NO explanation or apology from Kanye to his audience... NONE.

Fuck Him.
He obviously doesn't give a shit about his fans... all he cares about is his comfort and his luxury, which he apparently cannot connect to his fans at all.
I think someone needs to sit him down and let him know that... without fans... there's no career... no more money... etc.
So you fucking ego-maniacal cockbag... next time you want to completely neglect your fans... or need to be in front of a bigger audience to disappoint.
Just be aware... that within a year or two.. you'll be back to being a fucking nobody.
Your only shot at a comeback will be some VH-1 celeb-reality show where you'll room with the guy who played Billy on the original power rangers and have a love interest in the actress who played Kimmy Gibbler on Full House.

Face it Kanye... no one's honored by your lateness... just disappointed.
People left...
And Fake shit?
Those are your fans...
See how fake it is when you've got none of those left.
Enjoy rapping your lyrics through the McDonald's drive-through speaker douche.

Lets Throw A Mediocre Party!

2008-06-08T18:36:00.000-04:00

It's that time of the year again!
You know the time! Graduation!
When you have to go to a party for every other family you know who has some asshole kid who's name you don't even know... and yet still feel obligated to give them some kind of graduation prize money.
I think it's time we got over this little trend.
Face it... a LOT of people are graduating.
It really doesn't feel like that much of an accomplishment anymore..
Especially not high school.
My expectations for graduating high school were pretty much... just show up most of the time.
And considering... the millions of students who have the mental capacity of rocks... I really consider the high school standard of graduation to just be a pulse anymore.

As for College Graduation parties... is that really necessary?
Isn't college an optional goal?
That seems like a bit of an ego-feeder... "Let's celebrate your accomplishing the goal you set for yourself!"
I don't know, maybe people just aren't that goal oriented anymore... but I feel like if I get a party for my 4 year optional goal, can't dad get a party for finishing his 4 year goal of building a shed?
Pfft.

It's not that I don't think we should celebrate graduating high school or college... I just think we should call these parties something else.
Make them a little bit more specific and personal.. you know....
So I present to you my "Alternate Themed Graduation Parties!"

- The Last Accomplishment of Your Life Party - I'm sure you've all heard the phrase "peaked in high school." Lets face it... some people just do. They just don't have the ambition to do quite much once they are finished.
Now, before you think... "well... they could get a job, have a baby, get married." Those don't count... I could find people who haven't finished high school who have done all of those things. ... more than once.
SHIT! I could find people IN high school who have done all of those things. But that's my first one! Celebrating, the end of your progressive life!

- More Fuel To Feed My Child's Ego Party - For those kids who were overly-ambitious in high school and brought home various academic and athletic awards.
They didn't do this for themselves, or college resumes... they did it so various family and friends would come to their graduation and want to talk and hear all about their accomplishments. They did more than graduate! They graduated top of Class! Captain of all their teams!
They outdid people who didn't care to try or show up. Keep it up tiger!

- I Can't Believe I Lived to See the Day Party - This party isn't for parents who are shocked that their kids actually finished school, NO I mean it in a literal sense. They are surprised their moron kid didn't get them self killed somewhere along the line.
Whether they had a dumb, gang-banging kid who hung out with the wrong crowds and got into the worst kind of trouble, or their proud of skank kids who weren't taken down by the hiv, or that their children weren't struck down by the teenage angst that takes so many teens down. "Congratulations Son! Despite the fact that you said you'd kill yourself if your high school sweet heart left you... you managed to get through with just a couple of wrist scars!"

- Families Excuse to Drink Together in Excess Party - For those people who have families anything like mine; graduations, marriages, communions... anything is a potential party in which we can all booze up.
This one's simple and straight to the point, who are you kidding... no one cares you're graduating high school... shit half the family doesn't even know how old you are let alone what grade you're in... just enjoy the opportunity to drink with your friends in front of your parents and get away with it.

- The Greatest Child of Them All Party - This party is for the youngest or one of many kids in a larger family. Not only that but it's more centered on the parents finally having a child to celebrate accomplishing something.
They look at their other 3 free-loading, good for nothing kids... and then at their newly high school/college graduated child and realize at least that's one seed of theirs that won't be financially burdening them into their 40's.
"Great Job Son! You're a much better child than your brother and sister... and that's why we love you."

- Financial Services Party - This party has one purpose... money. A Graduation is, with the exception of birthdays, the last chance to have people just giving you free money. Face it, graduating high school... you need money... you need to go to the beach this summer... and buy beer and cigarettes... and if you're graduating college! Shit you need money to start your real life, and for that real life you're going to need beer and cigarettes! So enjoy the free money, and don't kid yourself... you don't care nor does anyone else at this junction about the actual graduation. You want money, and societal standards state that people give you money for your mediocre societal standard accomplishment.

Is it Contagious?

2008-06-07T01:23:00.001-04:00

I recently came to the realization that for the most part people who are Pro Life... are also Against Gay People.
And I see a problem there... because, in their strong opposition to ban the Gay Community these folks miss out on solving a problem of Abortion.

Say for example, we do ban abortion... a lot more children would have to be put up for adoption.

And all of those people who are Anti-Abortion are certainly not going to adopt all of those children.
If they were interested in doing so, they'd perhaps offer that service to women interested in abortion... rather than screaming into their faces "You're gonna burn in hell.... fuck you slut..."
and... "MUR-DER-ERR."
If I were a girl desperately considering an Abortion... some pro-life enthusiast outside my abortion clinic offering to adopt my child... would be my personal Savior... I wonder if any of them have ever offered such a service?
No they seem to like the yelling a lot more...

Anyhow...
As I was saying... say they get the Pro-Life thing passed...
Now all of these children are up for adoption... and what potential statistic of people who may be interested in adopting are not allowed to?
Oh yeah... the Gay Community.

Pro-Lifers... hate the gays!
Seeing a child put into the hands of a Gay Couple, is probably just as horrible a fate as abortion to these "Life-loving" hypocrites.

People really need to learn to pick their battles...
It's two completely different battle-fronts!
The Ethic one of... "When does life begin?" "is abortion murder?" "if a person considers abortion wouldn't that life be better off not beginning."
To a completely different front of not minding your own fucking business, forcing your lifestyle on others and being a bigot.
- "Are the gay people going to fuck this child anally?"
-"Are they going to force the child to be gay?"
- "is gay-ness contagious?"

It just stinks, because if we did ban abortion and all of these unwanted children go up for adoption, it'll be a whole new battle... held by the same people... that these children can't be adopted by gay people because... because they believe them lesser human beings? or somethings wrong with them... or whatever they believe.

I dunno...
People Are Bigots.

This South American Tribe was... will.... just IS.

2008-06-04T21:13:00.000-04:00

Today in my Linguistics Class we were discussing a South American tribe, buried deep in the tropical forests of Brazil who Linguists found very interesting due to their limited use of words and sounds.
These people have numbers up to three, three also suggests more than... they don't speak of any history, origin stories, nor do they keep art.
It was so interesting because their language has no words or ideas alluding to the past or future.
They don't concern themselves with past events, or future events.
They don't concern themselves with art, because the only time it has any value is while it is in the process of being made... and when first finished, after that it is disregarded, destroyed or trashed because no one can explain the context in which it was created or what it meant... because it had all happened previously.
As for future, they never worry about storing foods, they just hunt and eat when they get hungry. No concern whatsoever... and... it works, they've survived there for who knows how long...
It's so interesting... how alien and foreign these concepts are to us... and these people have just as much mental ability as we do... there is nothing wrong with them.

However, I've yet to get to my point...
So... these people are met and studied and found interesting.
Then the Christians found out about these characters... and they were like
"Wow those people sound fascinating... you know what would make them even MORE interesting... Our God."
So they show up, and their trying to teach these people the Bible and Jesus... Etc.
And these people, who have no interest in past events or anything that isn't right in front of them are like
"Oh... Wow this Jesus sounds interesting, but... we don't believe you... can we meet him?"

Hurray for the failures of Christianity and Missionaries!
It's not that I'm opposed to organized religion or anything... I just hate people who attempt to force it upon you.
Like those people who come to my campus and shout about our need to repent, or people who give me pamphlets that suggest how I be saved... and ESPECIALLY those people who pay to put up billboards and such that just have verses from the bible or say something along the lines of "There is only one true God."

I hate these assholes!
Because of the arrogance that goes along with these "One true God statements," in which they basically declare everyone else's faith is false... and this idea they have that they've discovered something everyone apparently needs.

Listen people!
If people feel they need to be saved, or that they need some hope... or whatever.
They'll come to a Church or fucking go searching for what they need.
People aren't going to be converted by Pamphlets and Billboards or People... showing up and trying to just shove all then information down their throat and tell them.. that it's a better way to live and that they need it!

And honestly... if you do convert them that easily... they weren't really any kind of real individual or useful member or society anyhow... or you guys are just assholes for manipulating those in need.
Or in the case of this South American Tribe... those you see as less civilized and in need of saving.
Assholes.

Everyone Hates Global Warming

2008-05-22T15:51:00.000-04:00

Everyone hates global warming...
Either because they fear it's ultimate assault on the Earth.
Or because they completely disagree with and despise the premise of it...
They just hate it, hate it, hate it!
Everybody!

So a couple of weeks ago I had to watch An Inconvenient Truth for my Bio class. I had to miss lab that week so I went and rented the movie just to stay on top of everything. And freaking everybody, from people I mentioned I had to watch it to, to the clerk at the video store... were like... "blah blah blah.. Good movie.. blah blah blah global warming"
Preaching to me, I rented the movie... I watched it, I was obviously interested I don't need your input.
So... generally I got the idea, Al Gore... hates global warming... well really he just holds a grudge against cars and by approaching the situation of Global Warming he intends to convert everyone to using Bikes.
But, the movie got through to me, sure... if it's all good, honest science... how much can you really question it... but, being the sane and balanced person I am, i invested some interest in hearing the other side of the story.

The people who hate the idea of global warming, claim it's a hoax and whatnot... decided to check out what those characters had to say.
The first thing I noticed about any of the sites/blogs and whatnot I checked out was the straight up arrogance.
The first thing any of these people said before they showed you any of the science, or simply just said the Global Warming science was not true was pretty much just state with an air of sarcasm, and self-importance that "Global Warming... who believes in that? Before I say anything I just wanna say if you think Global Warming is true you're an idiot."

Now... I didn't really do well in my Speech Classes, nor did I get A's on the argument and debate papers in my English Classes, and I've never been in any debate club or... anything
No experience...
But I'm pretty sure, you shouldn't open with "If you don't agree with me, you're dumb as shit."

Pretty much, this petty... I'm smarter/better than you attitude made them lose all credibility.
Honestly, if you're making a site defending your own beliefs/ideas/sciences... just post the facts... get to the point... don't just degrade people who follow your opposite/rivaling ideas.
And besides, criticism like that... shows to me at least... a lack of confidence in oneself.

Just think about it.
Whether you believe in Global Warming, or if you think it's solar flares, natural phenomena, just an unusual earth cycle, or that the global warming science is all inaccurate/lying... The whole idea behind Global Warming is just to create a more environmental friendly society.
And how can you really argue with that?
How can you REALLY believe, that human populations, with their pollutions and cars, etc have had little to no effect on our planet. (Something a couple anti-global warming blogs had to say.)
Are there really people that don't give a shit what happens to the planet as long as humans are comfortable?
Face it, it's all about conservation, protecting our planet, using renewable... less pollutant energy sources.

Even if you don't agree with the global warming science, at least be willing to step up and say "But we should still discuss ideas to help protect and conserve our planet."

Do something constructive with your criticism.

Celebrities Make Me Want To Embrace Communism

2008-05-22T01:09:00.000-04:00

Famous people make me want to embrace Communism...
Seriously, shows like Cribs or Lifestyles of the Rich and the Famous... why do people need to see this stuff?
Are we supposed to be impressed, are they all just braggarts? I don't get it...

It's disgusting seeing how pampered celebrities are. How they have all these needs and demands for their dressing rooms or trailers, how they have 6 cars...(6 gas guzzling cars) despite their being able to afford having a driver or limousine for all the important places they go. Their 65 room house for their wife/husband and 3 children.
Like... what the fuck.
And of course... when I make this complaint to people who actually like those shows, and who actually like celebrities they have the brilliant response of "Well, you're just jealous..."

Jealous my ass
there is no reason to have a huge elaborate home, that can house 112 people, but fits your 6 person family... just perfect.
There is no reason to crave elaborate, ridiculous foods, items, etc before you go on stage or in front of camera... "Sorry you didn't get your fountain of mountain dew P. Diddy.." you know what P Diddy, fuck you in this fictional situation, FUCK your Face.
There's no reason...
People need to learn how to live modestly and comfortably... there's no reason to have so many things, to demand so much space, to need to be so ridiculously pampered.

Honestly, I feel like celebrities take all the modesty or any sense of limitations out of society.

People see them on tv and think... "that could be me, I want to get rich and famous and have millions and millions of dollars that I'll fucking have to find shit to do with because that's a fucking unreasonable amount of money for an individual to have."

Millions of dollars, what are you building a fucking theme park?

Why can't people just want enough money to live comfortably.
To not have to worry about the bills, the payments, the basic needs, and some safe social spending money on the side. Enough to live happily in their cozy house with enough bedrooms for everyone to have their own little bit of space and piece of mind.

Fucking People...
I wanna be the Robin Hood of modern America... I wanna break into celebrities bank accounts and disperse large quantities of their networth to people who still consider money to have real value in life, people that will use it to get the life essentials they can't afford while celebrities buy huge mansions to just fill with caviar and escargot, and those are their food houses.. and whenever they get hungry... they just go there and just eat their yummy snails.. and fish shit or whatever it is... and roll around... and then get cleaned off, and everything they've eaten gets replaced in exact quantity within minutes.

So yeah, fuck celebrities

And for those of you who are like "Well... my favorite celebrities adopt babies and go to Africa all the time and do their part and blahh.. blaah.. blah"

No... just no.
They work like 150 days a year, they're probably just bored.
Their publicists tell them to do it more than anything.
And what they donate is more than likely just minute, unnoticed fractions of their incomes.

They're assholes.. and all they care about is themselves, and their mountain dew fountains, and their 6 cars, and their 65 room houses, and their escargot and caviar houses
Fuck Celebrities

Bring on the Communism.

Then why doesn't my I-pod just have an off button...

Seriously...

I'm sick of having to mash that awkward pad with different levels of pressure... pausing my music and turning it up and down in an attempt to just shut it off.

Girls Are Liars and This is Unacceptable (Throwback)

2008-05-12T23:55:00.000-04:00

For this calmly enraged post, I've decided to make victims of....Female Sports Fans... or as I like to call them... liars.
Girls don't like sports.

They may like to play sports but that's not the topic... plus I don't really know if they do... cause I've never asked a girl what she likes. Anyhow... girls don't genuinely like sports. Any girl that says she likes sports is lying so she can win your trust, get close to you and drain the life from you...

Here are a few dead giveaways that girls are lying about their sports fan-dom.
1. Girls like the team you like: what better way to get close to you then to let you know you two share a favorite team. Oh My Gosh.. it is every guys dream come true... a girl who appreciates my team as much as I do! but she doesn't guys... it's a trick.
2. Girls, if they aren't a fan of your team... just so happen to be a fan of your rival team or the team you are currently playing: What better way to flirt with you then to claim for example, "Oh you like the Eagles.. I like the Cowboys," and then nudge you and make that mouth motion which suggests she'll probably blow you. Think about it boys... Why is it she never likes some obscure team like the Dolphins. (aside from the fact that no one likes the Dolphins) Well the point is... she's trying to fool you... she's lying.
3. Girls never have anything to contribute to any discussions about statistics: They don't. They want to lie to you but they don't want to have to research to lie to you... and they won't even spend time watching shit on ESPN to learn something to contribute. The only stats they know of are what they heard from the boy they are trying to rob of dignity, about his favorite player. They just repeat it in conversations, and blab about how much they love that player... that coincidentally... you love also... but it's all lies.
4. Find me a married woman that likes sports: Once they get married... sports is just a shitty distraction their husband has from paying attention to them and having him buy her things. Think about it... married women hate when their husband sits downs and watches a game with a beer or some of his buddies... you can see it in any movie or tv show. Any married woman who claims to like sports is the worst liar of all... she made vows to him and continues to lie. Despite the fact that it is completely unnecessary... she already has him.. access to all of his money, etc... but she finds reason to absolutely hate sports because she's starved for attention...Fucking Liar.

Now I know what all of you guys may be thinking; "I knew that." or "Why wouldn't I want girls interested in me."
Well.. I'm posting this... because
A.) I want girls to know I see through their shitty ploy...
and
B.) There's a double standard, while girls make complete assholes of guys who might lie about something... girls love to promote lying and practice with their friends when guys aren't around.
It's bullshit.
Look girls...If you're interested just say, "Hey... how about after this football game... we go do something non-sports related... because I'm not at all interested in sports, and I wanna blow you kind of." Because that's the truth. The wonderful delightful truth...
And all of this... is basically just my huge attempt to discourage girls from watching sports with guys... and getting overly-excited throughout the entire game with jumping around and cheering for every play. Ultimately embarrassing themselves in front of everyone... making noise interrupting the game/game commentary... and wasting space on the couch for a real sports fans.
P.S. girls or any guy who feels the need to defend that his favorite girl definitely likes sports... You're liars and She's lying.

By the way did I mention... I'm not a sports fan?

Gun-Toters and Hippies Can Finally Unite

2008-05-12T23:08:00.000-04:00

Is gun control still an issue?
I don't even know... I haven't seen anything on it in a while... but I've always imagined I had the answer to it... and that's why I have this blog.

So like any classic debate, gun control is a big tear between gun-toting hicks and whiny pussies. Actually... I wouldn't say those are the two standard parties for a lot of issues... but in this instance it definitely is.

So we have one side that needs their guns... love their guns... and demand their 2nd amendment promise of right to bear arms fulfilled (although I'd put money on the fact that the 2nd amendment is as far as 70% of them have learned).

Yep...

Then there is the other side... wah wah... putting guns in the world will contribute to crime and homicide... blahdy blahdy blah... people aren't responsible enough... boo-hoo-hoo

Being a moderate... or as I like to call myself, A Sane Person... I have feelings for both sides... as well as answers.

It's true, that A LOT of people aren't responsible enough to handle or own lethal weapons, but when it comes down to it... we give the incompetent side of humanity lots of things their recklessness can do damage to/with... like children or cars. So if we deem people too irresponsible to own guns... it'll only be a short while before people need to pass more advanced and detailed tests to gain access to children and cars (which is actually an amazing idea now that i think about it)

alright alright... sorry I'm starting to lose my own train of though...

Simply put though, whether people have access to guns or not... crime and murder will occur. Unfortunately enough some people just... are driven to do those things.
And as much as I hate gun toting douche guys... who need to own a gun, or read gun magazines, or go to a shooting range on a regular basis to feel more manly...
Having access to guns is only fair.
To have in your home (or on your person if you must) to feel safer... for hunting... or maybe just to collect and show off... people are just drawn to the things.

So enough blabbing about guns, I'll just get to my point.

All guns, are to be installed with homing devices.
you buy a gun, and that gun's location is always kept on tab.
It's not an invasion of privacy... it's nothing that can't be done with a cell phone...
and if you feel it's an invasion of privacy... you shouldn't have a gun... you're obviously doing something wrong with it Mr. Guilty Conscience.

Think about it, your gun sits in your bedside table... never moves, you've got nothing to worry about. It always just comes up as an unmoving blip around where your home is.
Someone gets shot in a park around the corner, and you know all the guns that were in that area at that time, their owners, who has what kind of gun etc etc... narrows down the problems pret-ty quick.

I think it's a great idea.
It takes care of both sides, testosterone driven tough guys who need their guns get to keep their masculinity.
And those people who constantly need something to cry about can feel like the system is doing something to protect them.

Everybody wins...
Including me for another great idea I deserve credit for!

It's your American right to call your wife a cunt

2008-05-05T00:50:00.000-04:00

"At least I don't plaster on the makeup like a trollop, you cunt." - John McCain

hahahhaha, what a great quote from John McCain.
Now, don't get me wrong... because this is not a political matter at all... I have very little to no interest in politics... and I'm not trying to vouch for either Democrats or Republicans here. I just wanna talk about this quote.

I like how this quote found it's way into the news...
I mean shit... when did this happen... 92-93?
Thats pretty ridiculous that people would make news of this... a man cursing at his wife 15 years ago? Who gives a shit.
I mean... I know the rules of the game in politics... any shitty regrettable offense you can dig up can be used against a candidate.
Which is why I could never get involved in politics... I've farted in church way too many times to try and deny it.

Also, I like how people will use this quote to try and overshadow his POW status?
How long did that last... 5 years? Yeah... I like how calling your wife a cunt can overshadow your being a prisoner of war, and suffering various interrogation, tortures and beatings for your country... the poor guy can barely lift his arms.
And they say this guys got a temper or whatever... after you've been through that kinda shit... you're very much entitled to a temper... and you're definitely entitled to calling your wife a cunt.

And you can't hold his defense of the situation against him... and criticize his "poor" response when he said he was just "tired" or had a bad day or whatever... and thats why he was so rude.
His honest response would probably have just been something along the lines of "What? sometimes my wife's a cunt and as an American, i want to be able to practice my freedom of speech and call her a cunt."

Calling your wife a cunt is nothing...
It's your American right to call your wife a cunt...
Shit, every day of my life I probably witness some girl do something she deserves to be called a cunt for.
Like in the Iron Man movie... when Iron Man is trying to put down that car on the freeway, to save those people from being smashed... and the dumb cunt girl who's driving slams her foot on the gas and runs him over and gets him stuck under the car for a minute.
what a dumb cunt...
There's nothing wrong with the word cunt
and there's nothing wrong with being pissed off at your wife every once in a while.

dumb.. media cunts

The Ultimate Invention to Save Non-Smokers

2008-05-04T23:59:00.000-04:00

So... in recent months, between my exploration of the Kutztown bar scene and taking notice of certain unhealthiness within my family... I've realized that... smoking is awful.

Actually I've always known smoking was awful... if there was one thing my parents taught me in the ultimate form of hypocrisy it's that... "Smoking is Bad... don't ever do it."

Anyhow... between trying to check out the Kutztown bar scene and suffering the awful air quality (Apparently Kutztown hasn't gotten the memo from Philly or Jersey that... non-smoking places of business still make money). Not to mention having to put my face into my sleeve to enter any building on campus... with the fucking crowd of smokers gathered around before class getting their hits in before 50 minutes of cold turkey (poor things). Actually just smoking anywhere; outdoor train and bus-stations, city streets, restaurants... you have to walk through everyone's shitty clouds of smoke.. and if you're like me and you're trying your hardest to not ever smoke... then it's kind of counter productive.

Anyhow... I just don't think it's fair for all of us non-smokers... those of us who'd rather cling to life a little harder, would rather suffer a slow demise through greasy foods or air pollution from other more convenient sources (like cars), or every other thing in this world that's cancerous now...

So... I've come up with this invention... I've put a lot of thought and effort into it... and I think it'll really work.

So this is my "Smoker's Box"
I'm pretty sure it'll save all non-smokers... even possibly play a deterrent to smoking.
It's a box, made of glass... where smoker's can smoke up all they want. Their smoke won't go anywhere outside the box so all of that nicotine.. ash air will just float around inside to maximize... the flavor.. or high or whatever it is that smoker's smoke for.
Notice right outside the box, the smaller box which basically plays the role of an air cleansing vestibule.
The Smoker has to stand in there for a second while the Cancer Tank sucks up any smoke that tries to escape, which protect the non-smokers who may be passing by.

Think about it... it's perfect.
It protects non-smokers from lingering smoke... everywhere.
It maximizes the awful cigarette smell on smokers who have to spend time standing in a cloud of their own death... which in turn will affect their social life... only other smokers will want to be around people who reek so hard of ciggs.
Also, it might help to speed up the negative effects that come from smoking... maybe people... with the health hazards looming a little closer to here and now... will put a little more effort into quitting.
Also, it'll help prevent people from developing smoking habits... by seeing these people pathetically huddled into glass boxes surrounded by a cloud of fucking doom... maybe it'll motivate that 13 year old who wants to stand out as the bad ass... to just settle for being an average d-bag.

So there's my invention, The Smoker's Box.... these can be installed on every college campus, outside restaurants, places of business, bus stations.. etc.. wherever people are.
Matter of factly, unless you're at home... you must be in one of these things.

It's a Revolution and I just started it.

I better get money when I start seeing them everywhere
