I FUCKING HATE LIVE JOURNAL
AND ALL YOU LIVE FUCKING JOURNAL FUCKERS.

Today we salute you stressed out college students during exam week. As you sit in your lonely cubical in the library, doped up on Starbucks and Aderol, you think to yourself, "am I ever going to need to know this stuff in life?"

The distractions are tempting and you have suddenly diagnosed yourself with ADD along with advanced delusionary schizophrenia with involuntary narcissistic rage. I'm sure by now you know exactly what everyone is doing because you have checked your buddy list 800 times. Christmas break is just days away. Your Prozac prescription will be in tomorrow.

So crack open an ice cold bud light before and after that last exam because most of your Christmas break will be spent in rehab.

"I imagine that one of the reasons people cling to their hates so stubbornly is because they sense, once hate is gone, that they will be forced to deal with pain."

– James Baldwin from Notes of a Native Son.

My dear brother: a very quick tempered young man with an aggressive attitude to all those in opposition of his ideals; emotions similar to that of a flower that has yet to bloom.

Its taut petals remain coupled unless pried. Frequent inquisition generally renders an intense disregard for sympathy; it is taken in to the mouth and chewed only a little and spit back out, like an immature orange whose bitter substance has yet to season. But consideration for someone's mental well being isn't wholly wrong is it?

Despite these attempts to alleviate symptoms of grief, the intricate endeavor typically wounds the delicate and juvenile buds, drowning the blossom in tide pools of intention; it comforts dormancy until the following season. But the stem needs more nourishment than its receptacles are aware of, and the small unit that binds together and strives to penetrate the feeble petals, is aware of the supplement it contains to aid in the growth of confidence. At least we think. All we want out of this is the satisfaction of a job well done.

The choice of this election year was way above being a Democrat or a Republican. It was way above details of the Vietnam War, being a "flip-flopper" or a good "war president", and giving a good image.

It doesn't take a lot of research or even awareness to see the harm that this man has done to the US freedoms, US finances and the image of his country around the world. It is not hard to see how bad the Israel-Palestine situation has become in just four years because of his unilateral support, to see all the incredible lies that were lined up to justify the Iraqi war. It's not hard to see all the financial and moral imbroglio of former and current oil and defense companies and the millions they make in Iraq. It's not hard to see how they dare send under-equipped innocent soldiers into a urban warfare nightmare and kill innocent civilians... it's not hard.

poor people need to be creative in the ways they obtain influence. if the lower classes can cause enough distribution in the society, the elites and more affluent may have to give them concession. when the underclass revolts, they threaten social order.

• Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you’re a conservative radio host. Then it’s an illness and you need our prayers for your recovery.

• The United States should get out of the United Nations, and our highest national priority is enforcing U.N. resolutions against Iraq.

• Government should relax regulation of Big Business and Big Money but crack down on individuals who use marijuana to relieve the pain of illness.

• “Standing Tall for America” means firing your workers and moving their jobs to India.

• A woman can’t be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation.

• Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.

• The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans’ benefits and combat pay.

• Group sex and drug use are degenerate sins unless you someday run for governor of California as a Republican.

• If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won’t have sex.

• A good way to fight terrorism is to belittle our long-time allies, then demand their cooperation and money.

• HMOs and insurance companies have the interest of the public at heart.

• Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.

• Global warming and tobacco’s link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.

• Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush’s daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush needed a “we can’t find Bin Laden” diversion.

• A president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.

• Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.

• The public has a right to know about Hillary’s cattle trades, but George Bush’s driving record is none of our business.

• You support states’ rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have a right to adopt.

• What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the ’80s is irrelevant.

• Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.

Article [II.]
A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed.

when the second amendment was written, do you think the author(s) envisioned a future where americans owned semi-automatic weapons--merely for the plain thrill of cold steel and power--and used them against each other? you must know--from history, of course--that during the time this amendment was written, 'ARMS' meant a good thirty seconds to load one bullet.

a wise man once said:

"there is enough in this world for every mans deed.
but there will never be enough for every mans greed."

give it a moment--or fifty--to process.

war is good for business. in the case of iraq, not only are destruction and death profitable, so is reconstruction. and when your friends send untendered contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars your way, it's hard to be a dove.

the defining aspect of humanity is the manipulation of our own environment. if we are uncomfortable, we change something around us to achieve the comfort we think we deserve--or need, whatever. this now extends to our own mental environment.

we look for someone or something around us to change, in order for us to be happy again. we would never think of changing anything inside. that would be too easy. plus wouldnt we just be setting ourselves up for failure? nope. well, i shouldnt concede that just yet. because changing yourself does come with much risk. but not in the long run. so, we sue fast-food restaurants for making us fat, pharmaceutical companies for making us sick. we blame the media and advertisers for making us stupid.

well, i say your life is yours and yours alone. if your fat, sick, stupid, uncomfortable or unhappy, its your own damn fault--considering you are one of the complainers mentioned above who love to swim in their own urine and, when out of breath, have others smell it--by the way i would love to sit with you and argue you to your wits end and wait for you to smash my face in because you know i hit the nail dead on, but its ok i forgive you. i know you just dont want to admit that i know that you know that youre just fucked up in the head--that im fucked up. i mean heaven forbid it would ever be a good idea to manipulate our own personal environment to provide total comfort and happiness. that would just be silly-stupid.

all of this is sad. its said that im so sad. its sad that im so sad about you being so sad. its sad that it makes you even more sad that im so sad about you being so sad.

twitch. gag. fart. barf. black-out from smelling fart. fall face first in barf.

skip the rinsing. just repeat.

* you know because swearing--did i mention bold-faced love--is just so much more effective than limiting the phrase to merely 'yourself.' i mean i wouldnt really ever intend to confuse anyone or pretend that i am something that im not.
