Negaview

Just a quick image that pretty much encapsulates what’s wrong with this country (to me at least.)

Ok, I have no problem with a person choosing to bicycle to work if they live close enough.  Nor do i have a problem with their ridiculous tights, or their holier than thou attitude towards being green.  That’s fantastic for you that you live within 5 miles of your workplace.  Many of us need to drive over 20 miles to get to work.  Bike that you fucker.  No, the thing i have the biggest problem with is when a biker does not follow the accepted rules of traffic.

Have you ever noticed that music sucks nowadays? Same with art. Why is this? I think it’s because every successive generation of music is inspired by the previous one (that goes for art too). However, not everyone takes the time to really learn the basics. For example 70s rock is inspired by the blues and early metal is inspired by a kind of mixture of classical and rock. Then the next generation is inspired by the previous and so on and so on, until you’re left with some bullshit like blink 182, or all american rejects.

Let us take a moment to consider the way the insurance industry works.  You and I pay a small (or sometimes large) sum monthly for some peace of mind.  This might be flood insurance, home owners insurance, auto insurance, or the mac-daddy of them all, health insurance.  Let us take a moment to look at the basics of how insurance operates shall we?

30’s the new 20, 40’s the new 30. I absolutely hate it when people say shit like this. Anybody who spouts off some bullshit line like 40 is the new 30 is either a) trying to make you feel better about turning 40 or is b) trying to fool themselves because they themselves are 40.

Well i was originally going to post a standard negaview about p90x.  The honest to god truth however, is that it works.  Here’s the thing though.  It only works if YOU work.  What do i mean by that?

In the united states we have a current epidemic going on.  Not a disease, or crime, or even illiteracy epidemic.  Dog ownership.  It seems everywhere i look i see more and more dogs.  Even worse i see more and more dog shit and dogs off their leashes.  Don’t get me wrong i love the little furry critters as much as the next guy.  However, I find this rash of ownership rather odd.  What i do find troubling is that dog owners seem to think it’s ok to not pick up after their dog or keep them off their leash in ever increasing numbers.

Obviously something has been going wrong with our nation for quite some time now.  We’ve gone from the top position in nearly every category to middle of the pack.  Things such as health care and education in the United States have steadily declined.  Why?  How did we, the lone remaining super power in the world, become such a mediocre nation in so many ways?

All white juries need to go away. Especially when they result in the acquittal of murderers. In case you don’t know what i’m talking about a 25 year old Mexican illegal immigrant (Luis Ramierz) was killed after a fight with 3 white teenagers in the mining town of shenandoah, Pennsylvania. Reports say the teenagers baited Ramirez into the fight with racial slurs. His death was confirmed to be caused by blunt force trama to the head. Specifically a kick to the head by 16 year old Brandon Piekarski. They were just found innocent of murder and even aggravated assault. However still guilty of simple assault. The jury? 6 white males and 6 white females in a small, racist mining town.

Green is the new green. Companies everywhere are now latching onto the green bandwagon, as consumers become more and more conscious of the state of the planet. However, just like the breast cancer pink ribbon before it, is this new green movement in business just another way to cash in on public opinion?
