    Communication

    I don’t know why, but something has happened to our society where the ability to effectively communicate has been lost. More than that, it has been shunned. People now take pride in their illiteracy. I often hear things like “well that’s just the way I speak” or “you know what I mean”. The worst is “I type the way I speak”. The last one implies that not only can they no longer proofread, but they are also idiots in real life, too.

    How I Would Fix the Economy

    The economy has been in the news almost constantly for the last few years, but no one seems to know what to do about it. It’s like asking a man what a woman wants. We have no clue. Magic seems to be the leading theory, though some believe that science will one day shed some light on the subject.

    Birth Control Legislation

    Effective August 2012, all health plans must cover birth control and preventative screenings for women. The conservatives are against this because, well, because liberals support the idea. Now I may have voiced my opinions on reproduction in the past. I know. I never speak my mind. Anyway, my argument has been that people are having children, but not raising them properly. They grow up in dysfunctional family systems (addiction, abuse, neglect, etc), but society has brainwashed everyone to think that having children is the end-all/be-all of human life. So rather than treat the psychological and physical effects of this trauma, they just have their own children and pass the trauma…

    The Marriage Fallacy

    With the recent gay rights advancement in New York, I thought it time I voice my views on gay marriage. There seem to be two arguments against it. First, is the idea of marriage sanctity. Second the idea that homosexuality is a sin. Let’s break this down, shall we?

    Boycott Barnes and Noble

    Story time. In a couple of weeks I am going to have surgery. (Yay vasectomy) Because of this, I will be taking a week off of work. I figured this would be a great time to do some reading. I have been interested in the Middle East conflict for a while, and a friend recommended a history book on the subject. I looked on Barnes and Noble’s website and saw the book available new for $50. While I was looking around the site I saw the Harry Potter collection for $50 as well. I liked the movies and someone suggested I read the books too. I wasn’t intending on buying…

    Dwight Benson is Public Enemy #1

    This is Dwight Benson. Dwight is 64 years old. Dwight was just arrested for his 13th DUI. Let me repeat that. Dwight was just arrested for his THIRTEENTH FUCKING DUI. You see, Benson was in the Navy for 30 years and served multiple tours in Vietnam. He started drinking during the war and has since racked up 18 reckless and alcohol related driving convictions, and more than a dozen other convictions for driving on suspended or invalid licenses. His family claims he suffers from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. So that absolves him.

    Adoption Vs. Abortion

    I heard someone say “I don’t believe in adoption” recently. First off, you don’t “believe” in it? Like you don’t think it’s real? Secondly, saying “I don’t believe in adoption” is basically saying “I don’t believe in putting my child first” or “I don’t believe in giving my child a chance at a happy life”. Now, I won’t get into the debate about when life starts. I don’t care. For the sake of this post, let’s say that it’s a living organism that could grow into another fucked up person. As a parent, you have the ability, nay OBLIGATION, to raise the child to be a productive member of society.…

    The Root of All Evil

    I firmly believe that the root of all of society’s problems is unfit parents. Crime is almost always perpetrated by child from a dysfunctional family. We are profoundly over populated. We just keep popping out more and more children.
