Presidents Are Top Notch

September 4, 2008

If the so called “top leaders” and wanna-be presidents in our country are literally the best that we have to offer, WHY CAN’T THEY WRITE THEIR OWN DAMN SPEECHES?

What is this Hollywood? Republicans, Democrats, Independents, and everyone else in between…don’t be fooled by people who claim to be so down to earth, but need a publicist to express their thoughts for them. I admit, it is great marketing.

Missing the Amazing Things in Life

September 1, 2008

All of my life I’ve noticed that the people take several amazing details for granted while existing on this planet. I’m certainly not the exception, but I’ve slowly come to realize that I can’t waste any more time following mass opinions and routines in order to value the same things as a “everyone” else. In regards to people taking things for granted in life, a perfect example is the instance of crossing paths with someone for the first (or last) time in our daily lives. And no, I don’t mean some “love at first sight” moment, or even an introduction to a new friend or co-worker. I am talking about the daily phenomenon of meeting or even making eye contact with a person for the first time and realizing that you will most likely never see that individual for the remainder of your natural life. This means that person jogging outside of your house you said “hello” to, and the taxi driver who drove you a few blocks into the city, and the high school kid who served you coffee at your local coffee shop. Do we even think of how amazing it is that these instances are often the only times we see these people for our lives? Why is this not important to us? We get to share a small moment of time with people who have been living near us or far from us, but with similar pain, similar trials, similar goals, even similar passions, and instead of cherishing these moments, we go about our day without blinking an eye.

I think about this and I think about what we usually view as being “amazing” in life. And usually that definition does not involve meeting or seeing strangers. In fact, what we consider amazing in life is probably the farthest thing from meeting strangers and most likely involves us getting what we want and moving on. Marriage, childbirth, and graduation on the other hand, are widely accepted milestones in our lives. Not to say these things should not be cherished, but when you think about it, we see our loved ones and friends all the time. On the other hand, we see people on the streets who for all we know might have a lot in common with us, or could be dead by now. Do we care? Not really.

As for me, I cherish these small moments and it helps me to truly ask the right questions when meeting people for the first time. I say enough of these formalities and nonsense traditions in life, the next time you meet someone for the first and last time, I suggest you reach out to encourage them and even share with them how honored you are to have met them in this lifetime. It may seem strange to many people, but I personally would feel encouraged that sometime took time out of their “busy” schedule to be real with me for a moment.

Boost Your Ego

May 3, 2008

I’ve always wondered why we focus so much time and effort on impressing people we don’t necessarily like. I still can’t figure it out, but I’m sick of it.

Of all the things on this earth we choose to focus our time on….we decide to focus on appearance and image. What a bunch of nonsense. Do you ever get sick of it? I don’t care who you are or where you come from, you must be sick and tired of putting so much thought into how you come across to other people. And not only in your appearance, but in what you say or do. I’m not saying you should act on every single natural instinct you come across, but I’m saying that it’s ridiculous to get dressed up in a monkey suit every day and parade around in flashy cars to gain approval from society. What are we trying to prove anyways? Who are we fooling? Did we fool ourselves yet? Perhaps we have, but in the meantime I suggest you keep feeding your ego and telling yourself how wonderful you are. Keep worrying about your appearance and possessions to let others know what good taste you have.

Forget about the important things in life as they are truly secondary. It’s all about you.

Because They Said So

April 29, 2008

We form many of our opinions, traditions, routines, and beliefs on the simple principle of “because they said so”. Think about it, when is the last time you researched facts on important issues for yourself? And I mean actual research that goes deeper than reading one random blog (like this garbage). And not just from listening to the banter coming from some Lego-haired and gaudy news anchor, or from your gossip lipped co-workers who can’t handle their own issues in life, but have the key to solving the entire worlds problems. It’s all a bunch of nonsense and I’m sick and tired of it. Sick and tired. Did you get that?

I’m sick of people always doing exactly what they are expected to do and without questioning anything. I mean, they question things, but still within their boundaries and guidelines. For example, instead of considering the candidates for Republican, Democratic, or even Independent parties, why aren’t we questioning whether or not ANY of these morons are qualified to run this country. Every thought of that? We simply accept what we think is popular, because “they” said it was. We’re going through the motions, supporting what is known, listening to what is popular, and what is broad casted in the mainstream. It must be somewhat accurate right…they said it in the media… well screw the media. It’s only there to fit someones interest and it revolves around hearsay and hype. Why stay in the same box and never attempt to learn about point of views that may not be convenient for us to listen to.

People are painfully predictable these days. If someone leans right in their opinions, they listen to everything fed from the right. If they lean left, they buy up all the propaganda from the left. If someone is undecided, they don’t listen to anything at all, but use their time to complain instead of forming a damn opinion and establishing a new choice for their society.

I say there is always a new choice, and it begins with common sense. Take every situation with a grain of salt and research it for yourself. Don’t just read one book on a subject, read several books. Don’t just meet one person from a different culture, meet several people. Don’t settle for one radio station with your favorite like minded ideas, listen to them all and you will hear that much of it has the same agenda.

The want you to believe that you need to stand in line and support the popular groups in life. That’s a bunch of bullsh**. You are the future and you can decide what happens every day. It’s never been about the majority, it has always been about the choices YOU make as an individual and the decisions everyone can control in their daily lives.

EgoAssassin Vocabulary Lesson – “Don’t Jam Me Up”

April 25, 2008

For some reason I woke up today and decided I was going to start using the phrase “Don’t Jam Me Up” as much as humanly possible. I don’t know why I came to this conclusion, but I must say that I think this phrase has top notch comedy value and it simply sounds good to me (for some reason). What does it mean? Well who knows. I mean really, what does any catch phrase actually mean anyways? Usually coin phrases and slogans are just what their titles suggest……a stupid saying. But in my opinion, this phrase “don’t jam me up” could mean “don’t waste my time”, or maybe it means “leave me alone” or “don’t cramp my style”, or possible it means “don’t add to my problems”. But the bottom line is that I’m going to start using it, I don’t care what anyone thinks it means, but it can fit into so many ridiculous conversations. The more I think about it, the more I realize how well it can work on multiple levels and it is actually quite funny to hear as a serious comment, for example in response to a serious question or concern.

So please, don’t jam me up and let me live.

Stop Talking About Nothing

April 24, 2008

During my experiences walking around doing monotonous and boring things each day, I realize how so many of us humans talk about complete nonsense. I enjoy joking around and often spit out my share of meaningless conversation, but I’m talking about continuous, 100 percent meaningless dribble passed off as regular discussion, all day long in this country. I’m sick of hearing people talk about the most pointless and self serving garbage in life. And to add insult to injury, it’s uninteresting, shallow, and laughable subject matter in the big scheme of things. Our society is out there talking endlessly about stupid TV shows, stupid cars, stupid houses, stupid clothing, stupid possessions, and other really stupid things that we think are getting us far “ahead” in life. And my response to this drudgery is… SHUT THE HELL UP!

The lack of any real subject matter and substance in todays general conversation is getting out of hand. What happened to talking about actual problems we are faced with or how we can help each other out? What about taking on the countless life and death issues around the globe that make our problems seem minute. And we as a people seem to fit in our talks about “elections” or “environmental issues” to pretend we actually know any facts when in reality, we’re just repeating the same garbage heard on the over produced news channels and from co-workers gossip loaded tongues.

I have a suggestion for all of you talking about nonsense 90% of the time: Shut your mouth and start making positive changes in life. Then please continue discussing your possessions, achievements, and good looks.

SHUT UP, SHUT UP, SHUT UP. I’m sick hearing people talk about nothing. It’s really nothing. Or the second choice is to eat more food, go shopping, eat more food, complain, consume, eat more food, work a bit, eat more food, then talk about the food you ate and the shopping you did.
