| I hate you. You suck. You are stupid. Good-bye. PS- I have your present. | | |
| You know what I hate more than anything else? Being told what to do.
No, I'm not talking about when my mom tells me to take out the trash..
it would just be irrational to hate that. But I hate it when people
tell me how to live my life. Especially when it's on things that don't
really matter. For example, how to dress. Why does that matter to
anyone besides me. Arghm. Along the same lines though, the idea of
telling people how to live is also why I don't agree with the
conservative agenda. They want to force everyone to live like them. For
instance, they aren't going to get abortions because they think it's
wrong, and they want to make it so no one else does either... bastards.

| It's now been 791 days since I made this xanga, I
can confidently say that I haven't really used this as much as one
would expect. I have a lot to say and yet I almost never touched this
thing. Maybe it's becuase I've come to associate blogs with a personal
diary, which would be something I wouldn't want to put on the internet.
Then again, there's all those bloggers out there who rant about
politics and stuff, and now they're getting famous and that bugs me
too.
A lot of stuff bugs me. Why? Perhaps its because I
think this world and it's inhabitants (read: humans... not animals)
have much more potential than we live up to. Especially in American
society, the most trivial of things receive more attention than things,
which in my opinion, are of major importance. For example, the 2004
Superbowl had a record 144.4 million viewers, roughly 50% of the
population (Superbowl.com), whereas the 2004 presidential election had
a total of 122,293,332 (approximately 45% of the population) votes cast
(Wikipedia) . That means 18 million more people watched the Superbowl
-- a game, which when considered in the grand scheme of things (human
history), is about as important as you (not very). On the other hand
the election of George Bush for a second consecutive term is already
having epochal impacts (be they good or bad) and will probably prove to
have many more.

| See the one thing that bugs me about this "woman's rights" movement is
that it claims to want equality but in reality... they want to be
treated specially. See, I have no problem with giving everyone equal
rights, I think thats great (Ok well i have one problem with the
concept of "equality", but nevermind that for now), but that's NOT what
women want. They want to be viewed in a special light. I'll get more
into this later.

| So... it's winter break, and frankly I'm super duper bored. But just in
case you wandered by here as some things I've been wondering about...
--- How does paper money ACTUALLY work? No, you dumbshit I don't mean
that the numbers on the piece of paper dictate its value. What actually
dictates the value of a specific piece of currency in a global market
that consists of numerous different currencies? Is it inflation and a
country's stability (which would explain the recent drop of the
dollar... we're lucky Europeans are too lazy to work otherwise we'd be
screwed [more than we already are])? It's mind boggling.
--- What do Democrats and Republicans really stand for? All my life I
was told that Republicans were against bureaucracy's (big government), and all of a
sudden they're pushing (and then passing) for that intelligence reform
bill, which... by the way... increases the number of government
officials dealing with national security (*cough*bureaucracy*cough*). Frankly, it seems like
Republicans have gone so far to the right that they're now on the left (same
goes for Democrats by the way). Personally, I blame those obtuse
American voters (no, not just the ones in the midwest).
--- China will be so powerful in a few years. The country's
average growth is twice that of the rest of the world, yeah, twice. The
IBM buyout by that chinese company is only a sign of things to come.
I guarantee anyone who read this before will stop reading this now.
