Think, criticize, respect.

So I’ve noticed this Calvin comic kid on the back of everyone’s car lately. Most of the time I see him on the rear window of those rocket scientist cock bus owners. On their windows he is usually peeing on the opposite make of whatever type of cock bus the owner is driving i.e. if it’s a ford cock buss then Calvin is peeing on a Chevy bowtie. I’ve notice his urinary antics have now branched out to other things. He pees on Japanese flags, anti hunters, “rice burners” and I’ve even seen him praying. I guess after pissing on everything liberal or non American he has to repent like any good Christian. This assures his entrance into heaven. He seems to have a very right wing bladder. These cock bus owners and Calvin sticker drivers are the ones that need a good golden shower. They all need to be splashed with a little holy pee hit with a boot and hopefully converted to the ranks of the semi intelligent. This would be a step up from their current IQ.

Why do guys use the phrase dead nuts referring to accuracy? Are dead testicles very accurate? I really don’t want to hear dead and any part of my anatomy in the same sentence. You don’t hear woman walking around saying wow Bettie you really nailed that speech. You were shriveled tits on.

Ok, I seriously need counseling. It’s not like I haven’t done this before. So I shouldn’t be surprised. I went to see Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Don’t ask why. I was just bored and there wasn’t much else at this theater. The first red flag should have been the preview of the dukes of hazard. This show shouldn’t have been made in the first place. It was fitting that it was on CBS though. The shows only mildly redeeming quality was Catharine Bach and her character. Yeah I know that makes me sound like a typical guy. I’m not sure why I’m trying to explain that though. Anyway, its not the sexual aspect of her character. Its how she used the ignorance and expectation of every guy that thought she was just a dumb woman. And she did it without being blonde. She was a smart, strong, independent brunette character. Yeah yeah and she was hot too. This movie version looks so horrible. And the one redeeming quality that I spoke up they fucked up completely. There are so many brunettes they could have thrown money at to do this role. Why, why on this fucked up backwards planet did they chose Jessica Simpson. *slaps forehead* Has anyone else noticed that every picture of her she has what I like to call that blonde chicken of the sea look on her face. It’s that blank I left the dye on too long stare. *throws hands in the air* I give up. Ok back to the movie and why I need counseling. So I’m watching Mr. and Mrs. Smith. And yeah it was an ok movie. It was what you would expect. There were some funny one liner’s, witty banter, explosions and gun play. The end seemed a bit like the final scene in butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. Even some lines in the dialogue seemed like that movie. That’s not why I need counseling though. Of course Angelina Jolie is hot, that’s a given. Although what does mercury51 think about during the movie? Angelina getting naked…no…Angelina dancing sexy…no…Angelina shooting guns…no…mercury51 is thinking wow I really like that coat on her. Oh and that outfit really has that “That girl” Audrey Hepburn Natalie wood look to it. Ugh, please throw something at me.

So once again Hollywood has decided to milk some crappy novel to death. Unfortunately this time it’s the pre teen vampire human romance novel. I refuse to use the word tween. It sounds like some term a phrat boy invented to refer to a sex act. So this ridiculous book was made into a movie. It was a huge hit with young girls. You know, the same young girls that think the Jonas brothers are amazing artist and musicians. The movie itself was horrible. Just taken at face value, the acting was bad and drenched in overly dramatic dialog. You could have thrown William Shatner in that movie and I wouldn’t have seen any difference (Edward (extremely long pause) why must you leave…Spok, you (extremely long pause) don’t understand (birds chirping) our love for each other). The scenes were choppy and some didn’t make sense as to why they were even in the movie. It was just a bad piece of film making. Back to the book, now I can completely set aside all the changes to the vampire mythology. Writers change the typical ideas and mythos all the time. That’s not the bad part. I just don’t like the story and the way she writes it. It’s really just bad story telling. Now I know everyone is expecting me to go off on some rant about this being Mormon propaganda,  yadda yadda. On the contrary, this author just took some of the feelings, emotions, thoughts and ideals that she went through as a young girl and used them as the colors to paint this really overly dramatic pre teen romance novel. Depending on the topic, most authors do that. Or they interview someone else to get a feeling for their views and ideas and emotions. There is nothing wrong with that. She doesn’t advocate Mormonism in the book. And the so called ideals people talk about in the book could be any religions ideals, not specifically Mormon. I don’t agree with them but I’m not going to shout shenanigans Mormon propaganda. Sure it had religious, sexual and social euphemisms and undertones but so many books.  The major problem I see other thank the fact that it a really crappy story directed at pre teen girls. She writes, albeit very poorly, in a pseudo sexual way intertwining lots of young social issues in with moral direction. I think it’s a slippery slope when you write this way to kids. Now don’t throw your stones yet. I think children can handle topics like religion, love, lust, death and sex within reason. Unfortunately these topics are wrapped up in a really bad story written in a really horrendous way. Now if you do let your child read things like this of which I’m not opposed to.  It should just be, like everything else, accompanied with lots of discussion from the parents. And not that silly one sentence statement about don’t do that or think like that. Read about it yourself. Discuss the book and the meaning of things. Understand how your child interprets things and feelings within the pages. Maybe, just maybe she will grow up reading much better novels.

I don’t even know why I’m writing about this. I don’t watch American idol and never will. I’m sure they are all talented. I just don’t find that type of show entertaining. So, I don’t really care. Although like usual there is something I found to bitch about. Adam Lambert, the runner up of last season, put an album out. No surprise there. They all do. They sold their souls to be on that show. Now they have to dance for the devil to make money, the devil being Simon and his recording company. That’s not my rant though. My rant comes in the form of hello, he’s gay. And he told you he’s gay. He’s doing what he wants the way he likes. And it just happens to be a little flamboyant. There is nothing wrong with that. And most people would not even notice it. There are clubs all around your neighborhoods filled with gay men and women dancing to music. Well now it’s a contestant from American idol. He is selling his music to your teens and pre teens. And therein lies the controversy. His album cover has him in 70’s roller disco drag. Not that there is anything wrong with that (why do I keep sounding like a Seinfeld episode). Now, normally, that would be passed up and forgotten, except your 14 year old who watched the show may want his cd. Now there is the problem. It’s ok when it’s not sold to my kid. Everyone takes the attitude it’s not a big deal until its marketed, sold or directed towards their children. So it’s a sort of don’t ask don’t tell policy. It’s fine if we don’t know. Funny, because I could throw a details magazine into the cast of any TV or movie and hit at least one gay guy. And that guy is probably on your young daughter’s wall or being fawned over by your wife. It’s ok if you don’t know or isn’t directed at your child. As soon as it is then it’s controversial? What is controversial about some kid in makeup, purple hair and roller skates? Other than the roller skates that sounds like my high school. And they all are probably lawyers, doctors or actors now. I think the controversy comes in the form of our double standard.

Assholes breed assholes. Remember this when your child grows up to beat his wife or your daughter is arrested. A group of parents including members on a little league board went ape shit at a little league all star game. Their team lost. They cursed, attempted to start a fight and threw things. That’s the way to teach your youngsters. Nothing says intelligent, loving parent better than acting like a childish idiot when you lose. I’m not sure what lesson you are trying to teach here. How to act like a two year old? How to raise children that cant control their anger? How to show the rest of the world that you deserve to be tazered and sterilized? I’m bias toward the last one.

Children die every year when left in hot cars. Their parents were either just running in or thought leaving the window open a little would be ok. They obviously get zapped with my “your and idiot” tazer. Apparently there are those parents who accidentally leave their kids in the car. They forget they left their child in the car and end up going to work or where ever they were headed (yes this really does happen). These people get tazered several times. How in the parental fuck do you forget a human being? And as if we don’t cater to stupid people enough, automotive groups are trying to get sensors put in cars to let you know when you are an ignorant piece of shit and left your flesh and blood in the back seat. If you can’t remember that your child is in the car then you shouldn’t be able to procreate. Hell, you shouldn’t be able to have a driver’s license. You’re and idiot. We don’t need to add sensors and cost to a car to allow you to continue to be an idiot. I vote for sterilization and taking the bus.

The stork dropped a little girl on the door step of an Arkansas couple. This doesn’t really sound too wacky does it? Well hold on to your vulva. This couple just had their 17^th child. Yes you heard me, 17. And they are thinking of having more. The kids range from 19 to the new born. Mom is 40. So that would mean the new born will be in high school when mom nears retirement (im sure she is not working). Oh and I love the fun fact that mom has been pregnant for over 10 years of her life. I don’t even know what to think about this one. They must just fall right out of this woman like wet soap in the hands of a prison convict. This is what happens when you mix your religion and vagina. Keep religion out of the bedroom! Oh the insanity.

True story, a priest went jogging before sunrise. This wouldn’t be a big deal except that he was in his godly birthday suit. Yes, that’s what I said. This priest was jogging naked. No he wasn’t drunk on the blood of Christ. He was arrested jogging on a high school track. He told police “I’m a heavy man and wearing clothes while running makes me sweat profusely”. Wow, I’m sorry that your priestly fat ass has to wear clothes. I feel really bad. Hey how about we compromise. Next time you want to go jogging just wear a diaper. Then you won’t sweat as much and we don’t have to see Jesus and his disciples dangling there for all to worship. We will even chip in and get you the holy huggies with the Stations of the Cross on them and everything. They can have extra padding for those unholy accidents. Naked jogging because his fat ass sweats a lot? Seriously folks, this is the person giving you spiritual guidance?   

I told myself I would not write about Paris Hilton. Shes done nothing worthy or really anything at all to write about. She’s rich. She’s attractive if your thing is anorexic looking women. Seriously folks without her makeup she looked like she walked out of her trailer on heroin. And she’s a seemingly crazy attention whore. And I mean attention whore with the most gaping attention whore vagina possible. At least some stars actually do things or perform public acts to get attention for their careers. This non star just shows up, acts stupid and demands attention. And we as a society give it too her. So now she’s broken the law. And like everyone else in this world if you break the law you need to pay for your unlawful deeds in the same manner as everyone else. I don’t care how rich you are, about your fear of closed spaces, fear of poisoned food, a rash or any other silly thing. You break the law, you go to jail. Now this is not even true topic of this rant. There were two things that really sparked my squirrelly wrath. First, she said publicly that she’s amazed at all the attention this incident as gathered. Now I know it’s hard to believe that anything amazes this Einstein of heiress’ but come now. She demands attention where ever she goes. She feeds off it. Her whole social persona is created from the attention she requires. Her whole pseudo career is based on this. And now that something negative happens that she cant control she’s amazed? The second and the real sickening point is that NBC is going to pay her one million dollars for her first after jail talk. Um, isn’t she worth a universe sized load of cash? Why do we (and I do mean we) need to pay her money for driving under the influence and going to jail for it? I say we because NBC wouldn’t be paying her if they didn’t think you would be watching. So in essence you are paying her. Do you feel good about that? Or do you feel dirty and used? We should all be allowed one fuck with Paris. She seems to be fucking us and getting paid very well for it.

Apparently my cat doesn’t understand physics. She doesn’t realize two things cannot occupy the same space simultaneously. Either that or she is still trying to learn to use some other kittie dimension that allows her to phase in and out. I would prefer to believe the kittie worm hole idea instead of realizing my kitten is retarded. Well, she’s like dad I guess.

Also there must be specific kittie etiquette I am not aware of. My cat seems to believe it’s ok to sun her crotch in front of the sliding door. I don’t know how it is in cat land but here in Mercury51’s house tanning your vagina is bad manners. That is unless you are a spunky, opinionated, raven haired woman who is attracted to clean cut, ranty, geeky guys. In that case sun your vag all you want. This sunning issue ranks up there with deeming it ok to lick your owners face immediately after tongue bathing previously said area.

I don’t claim a for or against view on the death penalty. I never really get to that point. The death penalty is the end and an easy out of a much larger problem. The problem that many rightie kill em all morons and the leftie tree huggin, hacky sack playing hippies forget is finding these people before they get to this point. However let me start at the end and show how stupid arguing about the end result of our ignorance is.

Before I start, I just want to point out that some of the so called botched executions have facts left out of the news articles or lefty arguments. They use the inability to find a vein even though some of these people were intravenous drug abusers. It makes it tough to find a vein when many of them are collapsed. Many talk about the horrible looks of pain or jerking movements in other executions. Hmm, interesting, talking with some veterinarians they warn that when euthanizing your pets there may be some jerking movements or grimacing of lips after the injection. Wow, that sounds interestingly similar, DUH. We put a human face on it and we can’t handle it.

The death penalty in all its forms is decades to hundreds of years old depending on which you are voting for or bitching about. The one that is in the news lately is lethal injection. So let’s use that one in this ridiculous argument. Lethal injection is 30 years old. Since then there have been dramatic gains in science. I’m sure there are other drug cocktails that could update this method. We as a society are lazy though. We don’t want to change it. I’m sure there are other forms of gas that would be even more politically correct and allow us to feel all good and squishy deep down in the hypocritical cockles of our hearts. Change may cost money or bring up things we don’t want to talk about…like WE KILL PEOPLE. It’s ok to say it. We do it. We kill people. And even those lefty tree huggers that say the death penalty is inhumane are killing people. If they don’t think so they should spend time in a maximum security prison. A convicted mobster in
Italy serving a life sentence sent a petition with 310 other names of fellow inmates to the Italian president. The petition was asking to bring back the death penalty so they could die. The mobster said he was tired of dieing a little every day. The point is that prison life is not humane. In many ways it’s less humane than all our types of capital punishment. So when you argue for or against either way you are killing the person inhumanely. Just ask the inmates. So on to the real problem.

Why time and time again do I have to bring this up? Our society does this every time. We let people slip through the cracks without help. Then we bitch like ignorant babies over whether they are evil and should die, how they should be treated, or how they avoided detection…blah blah blah. These are stupid questions from moron’s going about their daily lives ignoring their fellow man. Many in our prisons are mentally ill. Many felt they had no way out but crime. These people slipped through the cracks. We don’t care. We don’t set up programs to help or allow them to seek help. And the programs that are setup are not doing what they were set up to do. Our health care system doesn’t allow people to get and afford the help they need and we really don’t care. All we care about is why my gas is so expensive for my huge truck or SUV. Fuck your whining about gas. Fuck your SUV. That mentally ill inmate could be your son or daughter. They are our sons and daughters. We need to realize that they need our help before they reach that point. Stop caring at the end when it gets you publicity. Start caring at the beginning when it really matters and shows you care.

I have to respond to this one. You know even the people without guns are nutty. Some girl or woman sent an email to CNN in response to that Jack Cafferty question spot. The question was “Are gun control laws likely to change in the wake of the Virginia Tech shooting?” This woman wrote how what needs to change is the male’s inability to express any other emotion other than anger. Oh how I wish this woman was in front of me to debate. This chick, ill call her a chick because I know it would drive her fucking insane missed the banana boat. She lumped all her scorn and detest from her past onto “the male complex”. Gee, do we forget that women snap too? The only difference is women snap and harm themselves. Women tend to internalize and men tend to lash out. This is because chemically, electrically (emotionally) we are totally different. Now, getting to my true point, this obviously emotionally well grounded woman missed the point. We all missed the point. We all failed here. We as a society fail every time something like this happens. This boy was very troubled, chemically imbalanced and had very obvious severe problems. Everyone he came in contact with stated something very dark about him. If you put all that together then why didn’t anyone do anything? Be annoying here people. If you think he’s a nut and needs help, give his writings to the school, campus officials, have his parents called, whatever you have to do. If you care then do something. That’s the problem; I don’t really think we care about our society. We go just far enough or shrug it off and go to the mall. If he was on medication then what did the doctor that prescribed it do? Not a damn thing obviously. Drug him and he will be fine. Let’s not ask questions.  He was known by the police because he stalked someone. That sounds like a huge red flag even if he was Ronald McDonald. If you tack that onto someone who everyone saw as a loner, dark, twisted and troubled that’s a huge red flag that we did nothing about. Everyone can complain about everything under the sun, stronger gun laws, let everyone carry guns, the campus didn’t do things fast enough. These are all empty automatic reflexes after the response from the real problem. None of those things will solve anything if we don’t focus on the people with the problems. We go about our lives not realizing that there are very troubled people all around us. Keeping guns out of their hands or having the ability to shoot then doesn’t make them less troubled, us safer or solve the problem. We need to get them help, have programs set up to realize the people that need help. And we need to actually do something about it either with medication or verbal and emotional outreach. We as a society bitch and moan about guns and cars and every other inanimate object. Let’s help us first. Let’s focus on family, the people around us, ourselves as a society. The rest will fall into place. If you start actually fucking caring about the person next to you instead of wanting to carry a gun to protect yourself from the person next to you this would not be so prevalent. Oh and to the woman that started this rant. Stop shouting with your vagina. Start thinking with your head and speaking with your heart.

Ok I need to go shower. I need to scrub the dirty hippy off me. I sound like such a tree hugger. Ugh, I hate patchouli

Holy PC ignorance batman! How many times must I go through this. So, now some silly ignorant woman was driving by a theaters marquee. It had several plays listed. One happened to be the VAGINA monologues. Apparently her niece was in the car, read it and like any good, intelligent child asked what a VAGINA was. The aunt called the theater saying she was offended that her niece read it and had to explain what it was. Wow, how terrible that you have to explain to a child what a part of their body is. What if it was the optical nerve monologues or the spleen gab fest. You wouldn’t get your ignorant panties in a bunch then would you? No, but because it was a body part with a partial sexual role you were offended. How terrible that you had to actually explain things to a child. I would take this as a great opportunity to act like a fucking adult. Talk to your children like they are real people. Hoohas, doodies, poopers, thingies are all speech that keeps our children as stupid as their parents. It’s a PENIS and a VAGINA people. These are not offensive words. Children should know about themselves and the world around them. What is offensive is the woman’s embarrassment and so called offence that she had to act like an adult. We can try to keep them from growing up too fast. Let’s just not make them stupid at the same time.

Ah, it’s nice to see that the high and mighty British are no better than we stupid hillbilly Americans. Now I wrote about part of this a few weeks back. The subject of that post leads into this next one. A British Muslim teacher is appealing her suspension. What pray tell was she suspended for, a horrible work ethic, theft, inappropriate actions with a student? No, once again a Brit has a problem with a veil. The teacher, who wears a full veil when teaching, was asked not to wear it when speaking. She refused and the school suspended her. She of course sued. She received a few thousand dollars because the school didn’t follow proper grievance procedures but the suspension was upheld. She obviously plans to appeal the ridiculous ruling. I’ve had teachers that could barely speak English. In fact their lack of ability to speak English or speak it clearly hindered the class learning from them. They were never suspended or fired. In fact more and more teachers are hired with that problem. So why is a woman whose face I can’t see an issue? When being taught, I really don’t care about your religious beliefs or politics. I’m there to learn. Like I said before I don’t hear about Jewish teachers being asked to remove their yamaka’s. I’m sure Muslims will love me comparing their veil to a yamaka. We wouldn’t think about asking someone to take off their cross or Star of David. And no one would think of asking a black teacher to remove any African dress they wore to class. So why is an issue? Does a white male fear a woman he can’t see? Does it make him uncomfortable that she becomes just a person and not a woman that he can feel superior to? This has nothing to do with the politics or religious ideals of either side. Neither side should be pushing their views on the other. The many British have bitched and moaned about US politics and how backwards we are. They seem to do very close minded things themselves.

Through grape vine I hear they are planning to make a Fraggle rock movie. As much as I love the Muppets and the hippie laden Fraggles why do we need this? Well, I guess it is better to feed our kids this than Barbies new adventure. It may not be new but at least it’s not another land before time video or power rangers. We can only find so many things to wrap a love everybody hippie message into. I personally love the pcp acid trip thick Dr. Seuss cartoons. Now those were entertaining and taught you the all important albeit highly unlikely love everybody and care about things values. Flower power isn’t dead. We just wrap it up in different packaging. I think it makes us feel like we will get to heaven.

No matter what your IQ you can still be retarded. Scientists have created a new element. Don’t get too excited. I know how something like this can wet your panties. It won’t be named for a few years. It has to be duplicated by scientists. Are you ready for the punch line? I know you are on the edge of your seat with anticipation. The new element was created by smooshing (yes that’s a technical term) Calcium with Californium. Californium? Yes for those of you who are not up on the new man made elements Californium is another one of them. Apparently we pay D&D geeks to bombard elements together and come up with new elements. That’s fine with me. Maybe they can come up with a cure for cancer, end world hunger or discover a perpetual energy source. Let’s see here what is Californium good for? Hmm, 

-neutron startup source for some nuclear reactors, calibrating instrumentation

-treatment of certain cervical and brain cancers where other radiation therapy is ineffective

-radiography of aircraft to detect metal fatigue -airport neutron-activation detectors of explosives

So I’m reading an article, yes I can read things without pictures, and it struck me ironically funny. The article was about a long term study done on preschoolers who were given Ritalin. Yes that’s right, they are giving kids under the age of 6 prescription speed. Sounds like a fucking dandy idea to me. It will compliment the shitty food we feed them and the hours of TV and video games we let them have. Why don’t we just give them crack now and get it over with. Now in the studies defense they didn’t just pump any group of hyper kids with pills. These were what they called extreme cases. I love the way they describe the extreme cases. And I quote “The research involved children with severe attention deficit hyperactivity disorder with behaviors that included hanging from ceiling fans, jumping off slides or playing with fire. “ If your Johnny bastard is hanging from ceiling fans or playing with fire, being hyper is not his problem, having an idiot for a parent is. Hopefully this doesn’t open the door for any child that young who is hyper to be given the rx crack. I say hopefully but I know it will. That’s not the funny part for me although it was quite humorous. The funny part was some of the side effects. The kids were irritable, lost weight and grew less. That’s perfect. All we really want are kids that are short, skinny and pissed off. Yes I know, sounds familiar, fuck you. Now let’s take this one thing at a time. Our parents are feeding Ritalin to the underage kiddies but telling them to not do drugs while they drink their glass of wine and chug their beer. They will grow up a little thinner and shorter than average. This is awesome. This gives women even more to complain about when looking for a man to date. Now women will have even fewer tall guys (whatever it is they consider tall) to date. At least they can focus though. So this just adds another level onto my theory of our moms raising sons their daughters wouldn’t date.

Apparently everyone is a little crazy. This comes of no shock to me.  Experts out there have decided that the term schizophrenia should be dumped. The so called experts feel that too many symptoms are lumped into the diagnosis for schizophrenia and because of this many patients are over medicated or misdiagnosed. I agree that most people are over medicated. I don’t think it should start at this level. It should start at the my butt hurts pop a few 500mg pain killers level. It’s the everyday quick fix household that needs to be weaned off medication. All these I feel a little bummed because it’s raining or there is a spot on my carpet give me some prozac RX junkies need to just deal with life. If you don’t get off your lazy ass and deal with life sucking now and then you will never learn how to deal with the ups and downs. Now I understand and realize that some people need medication and that is fine. Do you really think this many teens or younger need anti depressants? Do you really think medicating our children during a period of such major development is good for their emotional, physical, psychological and social maturity? Every teen out there is confused, depressed or emotional. Its part of the shitty period called puberty. If any of you have forgotten what this is ill refresh your memory. This is the time when you body starts to change at the same time life is telling you get your fucking act together or you will be the guy living on the street talking to the garbage. While this is happening your hormones decided they want to go for several year marathon. Like many other sexual hormone experiences this one has its checks and balances. You are now walking around a crazed hardon worrying about school, friends, family and the future. And to add to this puberty assures that you will be one ugly, awkward, uncoordinated geek playing dungeons and dragons in your parent’s basement not getting laid. All this makes for a pleasant teen experience. Now I may or may not be drawing on be drawing on some personal experience. Although, isn’t every guy on the internet 6-2, 200lbs of muscle with a full head of fuck me hair and a huge penis? I know I am (combs thick black hair, flexes my muscles and adjusts seating position to make room for my huge member). And every woman on the internet is not fat. Come on ladies. When it says a little extra baggage it doesn’t mean a 4 month trip to Europe . Now don’t send me hate mail or more hate mail for that matter. There is nothing wrong with being a big girl or having curves. Lets just all be honest shall we. You know how you get pissed when the guy says he’s about 5-10 and his about 5-10 is more like 5-7? Well men get a little miffed when you say your curvy and are curvier than San Francisco ’s Lombard street. Ok, getting back to the subject, the big needle in my ass funny part of the article is and I quote  

“It is estimated that one in 100 people will develop schizophrenia at some point in their lifetime.”

 Um, one in one hundred will become schizophrenic? Great Caesar’s nut sack that’s a lot of people! That means that there are about 3 million people walking around talking through their index finger. That explains a lot. I’m probably one of those touched in the head. Although my voices tell me to tazer people for cutting me off, not using their turn signal and wearing brown shoes with a black belt. Hey at least I don’t think the neighbors dog or my lamp is plotting against me. I don’t need medication (no matter what my friends say). And there are many people out there that should not be walking around in a happy haze either. Medicate the people that really need it. Prescribe a bottle full of pills to the John Lennon killers not the teen who thinks his life is over because he has a pimple and kids at school call him a homo. The first one we should help stop talking to him self the other we should talk to.

The following was taken from a cnn article.

Former British  foreign secretary Straw wrote in his local newspaper that a veil was “a visible statement of separation and difference” and that he was more comfortable dealing with female visitors to his local political office with their faces uncovered.

 Ok now for my rant. This is truly funny and ignorant shit. Can I ask a black man or woman to shave or cover their afro around me? Can I ask a Jew not to wear their yamaka around me? What if your fucked up British teeth make me feel uncomfortable talking to you? Can I ask you write and not talk? This is just ignorant and intolerant. I feel uncomfortable talking to a man or woman for that matter with a mullet and wearing a lynard skynard t shirt. That doesn’t me I can tell them to change. Other polar opposite cultures are mixing more and more in everyday life. Just because you don’t agree with it at your work place doesn’t mean you can tell that person to go against their beliefs to make you feel comfortable. The point that the veil is a visible statement of separation and difference is funny. It shows the secretaries intolerance.  That is just the point of the veil in that culture. Whether western society likes it or not its how many cultures are. We don’t have the right to tell them to go against their beliefs or to change. If they want to change or it happens on their own then fine. I guess, and I’m about to sound extremely geeky here, I believe in the star trek prime directive when it comes to this. We should not meddle in other societies to make us more comfortable around them. We are all different. There will be many things that we don’t understand, agree with or feel uncomfortable about each other. Maybe we should all shave our heads, wear off white jump suits, be given numbers and have scheduled interaction in a single society. Would that make everyone feel more comfortable? Hopefully as the youth grows they will understand each others differences and be able to tolerate and work with one and other. Yes I know it sounds very hippyish. Well fuck off. I still shave and shower, hate dave mathews band and burning man and don’t recycle. So it all balances out.  This is just an ignorant an old world statement. The world is changing. And either you change with it and tolerate other people or you shut your British snaggle toothed fucking pie hole. Hey, if your ignorant close minded views make me feel uncomfortable can I tell you to shut up and stop thinking?
