Ignorance is NOT Bliss. It's Not. Bliss.

I was in a kind of chat lobby today (online one, a sort of intermission period between two games of Call of Duty), where you can hold exchanges with other people who you've just played with. So my friend and I had just whooped a bunch of kids HARD, and they were pretty sour over their loss. They decide to justify their beating by calling us nerds and losers (the playbook response to any loss in the video game community), telling us we play too much etc. 

I usually wouldn't mind this at all, but something caught my attention. They were screaming profanities which should not ever be repeated, referencing some of the most macabre moments in the history of mankind. I tried to talk some sense into the shrill voiced children, but honestly, who listens to advice given by a faceless voice. 

Some might argue that they're just being kids, saying things which they don't completely understand, just because the bigger kids say them. I'd respectfully disagree. What some people don't realize is that adults are the biggest kids on the block. Children fear them, give them a disproportional amount of authority, and secretly look up to them. The only reason something like this can happen is because the majority of people turn a blind eye to "someone else's responsibility". 

Well news flash motha effah's. Those kids are our future, whether you like it or not. I, personally don't want a bunch of ignorant, racist men and women changing my diapers when I'm bald and ugly. No thank you. I'd rather sit in a pile of my own filth and eat the dust off of my own teeth than have to deal with that.  

So please. If you have kids, or plan to have kids, do your best to instill sensitivity into their hearts. Love from a parent can go a long way. Let them learn the easy way, so they don't have to come home (or not come home, God forbid) with the cuts and bruises of another person's feelings. 

Don't raise an ignoramus. Or else... Someone might blog about it. 

Getting Older

Anyone who stops learning is old, whether at twenty or eighty. Anyone who keeps learning stays young. The greatest thing in life is to keep your mind young.

Strive to improve every day! 
It may even keep the wrinkles away.

There is a house in New Orleans,
They call the Rising Sun,
It's been the ruin of many a poor boy,
And God, I know I'm one.

...

Oh Mother tell your children,
Not to do what I have done,
Spend your lives in sin and misery,
In the House of the Rising Sun.

My Movie Idea

So I was thinking about that movie "The Princess and the Frog" or whatever it's called, and the whole cliche plot of it.... you know, lonely princess finds true love by kissing a frog, transforming it into her perfect dreamboat hubby. If I had my way with a movie like this I'd write it this way: Lonely princess seeks companionship, kisses a frog in hopes of taking the easy way out and finding the right guy with no effort at all (she's a princess after all). The frog transforms into a human... but he's a major douche. Then the entire movie is about how to turn him BACK into a frog, making the princess realize that every great thing comes about through much effort and dogged determination. Horray for underlying ideals of capitalism. Time to do my laundry.

Love Life.

Love to live. How does one go about doing this?
Live to love and everything will fall into place.
Passions make existence worth while, driving one to continue growing and challenging one to better his or her own person as a whole.
Be yourself.
It doesn't matter what you wear. As long as you put on a smile in the morning, you're alright with me.

Keep That Chin Up.

"The average pencil is seven inches long, with just a half-inch eraser - in case you thought optimism was dead."
-Robert Brault

Never give up on anything. There are countless things you can do with just a brain and a heart. Yeah, we all make mistakes here and there, but that's what the half-inch is for.

Rev Run

"NEVER wait for people to be friendly, show them how"

Words of wisdom from the Reverend. If only more people lived with this mindset... what a beautiful world we would be living in today.

Life's A Bitch

People do dumb things when they're kids, but they'll tell you that they were young and stupid then.
Little do they realize that they're probably worse off now because they think they're wise, and they think they're still young.

Inglourious Basterds



Loosely based on true occurrences. A collection of happenings called... World War II.

A parody of what is probably the darkest and most painful conflict that mankind has ever witnessed. Cool.

The glorification the merciless slaughter of countless human beings. Badass.

Oscar winning brutality. You really should watch this one.
