Impressing Others is a Waste of Time

Has impressing other people ever brought you actual success, happiness, security, or fulfillment in life? And if so, how? Is life smooth sailing for you now that you’ve wasted energy impressing those around you? And when you impress one group of people, there will always be another group that doesn’t approve of you.

It’s a waste of time. Do what is right, do what you must. Don’t get caught up in popular opinion or what other cool people think you should do. Time to grow up.

Are Hollywood Celebrities Serious?

For individuals like Vin Diesel, Ben Affleck, Paul Walker, Tom Cruise, Nicholas Cage, Angelina Jolie, and the rest of the ridiculous VIP list who claim to be “actors”, my question is this: Are these people serious? Are they joking when they appear in public and wave to audiences while blaring their corny smiles and arrogant walks in their designer uniforms? (don’t call me a hater damnit) But do they whole heartedly believe in their own hype, and as in hook, line, and sinker? Or do they just do it for show? Please tell me it is just for show, please.

And when they are interviewed talking about their latest “film” (translation: terrible and unoriginal remake) that they do simply for the money, which I can’t blame them for, are they actually serious about saying the new project is exciting and the greatest thing ever? Do they actually think these films are quality? Are they serious when comparing these new crap films to the old classics such as The GodFather, Casablanca, StarWars, Citizen Cane, or the several Kubrik (RIP) masterpieces that had surfaced throughout the past decades?

Someone please tell me…ARE THEY BEING SERIOUS? Has Hollywood finally lost its mind for good? These “stars” are more of a joke than any other group of celebrities on the globe, and to add insult to injury, they claim to know what is best for the world. Hell, some of them are even involved with the U.N. (unfortunately that was probably one of the better moves the U.N. has made this century). But I digress; I just want to meet one of these people behind the scenes, with no cameras, no video, and just ask them… ARE YOU SERIOUS?

I won’t mind if they are just pretending. Sometimes I pretend. I know I am nothing…do they realize that deep down they are nothing too?

5 Ways to Start Getting Noticed in Public

Are you sick of being average and always fitting in with the rest of this boring society? Try these tips on for size the next time you’re in public and you’ll be sure to start getting some attention….finally. Oh, and it’s only funny if you do these things with a serious face as if there is nothing wrong.

1. Wear tighty whitey underwear on the outside of your pants (I don’t mean just guys, girls too)

2. When strolling down the street, put a dog harness on a wild rabbit & walk it around town. (make sure you have a dead serious face of course)

3. When pumping gas, jump on the hood of your car and start doing the robot while simultaneously yelling out the amount of gallons that you’ve paid for.

4. When your co-workers ask you a question, just respond by hissing back at them like a cat.

5. Wear a giant watch on your forehead with a sticker of your face on it.

Indiana Jones 4 Gophers: Have Lucas & Spielberg Lost Their Minds?

What is the deal with these ridiculous scenes in the new Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull film, where Spielberg/Lucas feature computer animated gophers? (Okay they are actually Prairie Dogs, but you get the point) I wasn’t sure if I was watching Caddy Shack 4 or Indiana Jones 4. Are these “professional” film makers serious with this nonsense? Is there not one classic film that Hollywood will not destroy with this corny Jar-Jar Binks-esque garbage? I have two words for you: El Terrible.

Below is an image from the beginning scene of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (as the Paramount Mountain Logo transforms into this CGI Gopher). And not to spoil the film, but the gophers have absolutely nothing to do with the plot line or story. What a joke.

Propaganda to Silence Gas Price Complaints

We received an email today with the same propaganda nonsense that we get about twice a year, which basically suggests that as Americans we should simply shut up about gas prices being so high since there are other countries paying higher prices. So apparently if there are any injustices or issues of extortion going on in our country, we should simply ignore those issues or compare them to other global problems before making a fuss at all. Yeah well, I for one am still not buying this garbage.

The subject of the email was: “Why Europe thinks we are crybabies”. I love the term “why Europe”, as if Europe is some group entity or a person who is judging “us” and should dictate what we view as a problem. Can you say “permission slip”? But I must admit, propaganda still works and we all eat it up one spoon full at a time.

Made Up Expenses in the U.S.A.

My mentors always told me that society would eventually find a way to profit from a humans death, but I never believed it….until now.

Am I the only one who is noticing these ridiculous and imaginary costs that pop up all over the place and simply make no sense? Things we should simply NOT be paying for or simply paying less for. What the hell are we paying taxes for anyway? Where is this money going? Is it for the cops to work harder to give out speeding tickets, or catch j-walkers in the act, or keep us safe from kids who skateboard on sidewalks perhaps?

As a perfect example of a ridiculous and made up expense, I was reminded today that people actually have to pay for something called a “marriage license”. Are you f**king kidding me? A piece of paper from the government that says it is now acceptable to get married? This is ridiculous. Is this a free country or a shake down? It’s just an example of a made up expense and we have plenty of them. It is all nonsense that we conjure up out of thin air and charge people for, when in reality we cannot justify the ridiculous cost. We sit around with all of our possessions, which are not enough, and then imagine more ways to rip each other off for expenses that make no sense whatsoever.

I’m not just blaming “the powers that be”, I am blaming all of us. We are all becoming ignorant and selfish morons who are filled with greed. We would actually stop a funeral if the bill was not paid. This is not freedom, this is not justice, this is not life, this is not compassion. This is insanity.

People wake up. I don’t think we should not pay for anything, but I do think we have not lost our minds and can stop making up fake expenses that put hard working people in more of a jam than they already are.

Society won’t get anything from me but a middle finger. Do it yourself and stop listening to lies.

There’s No Such Thing As “Us”

I’m sick of hearing people talk about “us” and “them” or “our safety” and “their interest”. It’s all a bunch of nonsense and we need to not only wake up, but grow up. There are over six billion people on this planet and I have yet to find even two people who are the same. With that being said, I believe that the countless groups, religions, and social classes we conveniently separate ourselves into are nothing more than lies designed to give us a false sense of security. It’s a big scheme and it’s usually meaningless when you really think about it. Think about your own country, whatever country that may be. There are obviously millions of people in that country who may share similarities with you or even share the same blood line, language, hair color, or birthplace, but would you consider all of these people as part of your “group” simply because of these similarities given in life by chance? If so, why would you? It’s impossible to truly know millions of people who share common beliefs or characteristics. Hell, you probably only know less than a few hundred people period, many whom you may not even like. My point is that when we use the words “us” or “them”, we generalize an imaginary group of people in order to make our agendas come to life (whatever that agenda may be at the time).

Using these powerful dividing lines in life give us a false sense of meaning and purpose, when in reality, we probably have more in common with some of our “enemies” across vast oceans than we do our next door neighbors. For example, what about the murderous kids who committed the unspeakable atrocities at Columbine High School in 1999; they were American were they not? Does this mean that when someone says “us Americans”, that it includes these psychopaths? Well the government and this brainwashed society will have you believe that it does. But they don’t speak for me and neither do you. And come to think of it, neither do all of the psychos, murderers, racists, fascists, rapists, misogynists, and other corrupt nut cases who group themselves together with me.

“Us” and “We” are just coin phrases that can quickly bring people together and make them believe they are living or dying for something special. Unfortunately, the truth is that life revolves around specific situations and there are always exceptions to each rule. Therefore, we need to stomp out the false belief that there is such a thing as “we” or “us” in terms of religion, race, creed, class, or anything else for that matter. If that were the case, then every person claiming to practice catholicism would be a child molester….and we all know this statement, for example, is ridiculous.

Wake up and smell the coffee. It’s revolution time. It’s time to realize that you need to use your common sense and stop letting people put you into a box. More than half of what we do is already full of lies and deceit, why allow ourselves to buy into any more lies.

Unite and break the boundaries you have created.
