World History – Hook, Line, & Sinker

September 8, 2008

I know that these historians and archaeologists have made concrete discoveries for several centuries that prove certain historical events, cultures, wars, etc. But am I the only one who gets the feeling that we really don’t know as much about world history as we think we do? I mean, you hear these people rattle of the entire history of the world as if every single book or story is factual. Nonsense. Think about how we argue even about today’s current events and how we bend the truth even in our daily lives or resumes. Be realistic…do you actually think that our perception of history is even close to accurate? Regardless of peoples religion, we can barely even prove our own “facts” about history and we definitely don’t know what tomorrow brings. I think it is time to accept the fact that we know less about the actual details in history than we pretend to.

Educated guesses. We can’t even save our own people from natural disasters and we claim to be “experts” about where life has been and how every people group came about. Arrogant.

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.

Impressing Others is a Waste of Time

June 22, 2008

Has impressing other people ever brought you actual success, happiness, security, or fulfillment in life? And if so, how? Is life smooth sailing for you now that you’ve wasted energy impressing those around you? And when you impress one group of people, there will always be another group that doesn’t approve of you.

It’s a waste of time. Do what is right, do what you must. Don’t get caught up in popular opinion or what other cool people think you should do. Time to grow up.

British Accents in “Historic” Films is Ridiculous

May 6, 2008

What’s this obsession Hollywood has with writing British accents into every “accurately” portrayed or “historic-epic” movie? It seems like one acclaimed block buster after another is taken dead serious as being close to real events when in fact they should be looked at as a complete joke. Films like Alexander, Troy, Gladiator, 300, just to name a few, are perfect examples of this nonsense. Come on! We are supposed to believe that because the main character is speaking in some cool British accent that it has historical relevence and is legitimate to the story? It’s ridiculous. I know it is just a movie, but people turn around and say that it is so “true to life” as if that’s how it was? And I didn’t even mention how insane it is that the characters in these films are speaking English in the first place. How historically accurate is that? Or is it that we are too lazy to read subtitles and must pretend that the Romans spoke perfect English..oh and in a British accent? Who the hell makes this stuff up? I am not buying it people.

And why do they feel the need to always summarize years of complex historical events within a few cool italic lines of text? These are cute talking points, but come on now. What the hell is this? Are you kidding me? Has the audience really becoming this ignorant to throw awards at this garbage? It’s a comedy, not a serious film. What’s next? Are they going to do a film set in ancient Japan, but have all the Samurai’s speaking english? Wait….it’s already been done.

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.

Why Isn’t Murder a Good Thing?

April 28, 2008

I got your attention didn’t I? Maybe it’s because you (as a human being) have some level of consciousness and probably hold a strong position on the issue of murder. Of course I’m not here to support the position that murder should be seen as a good thing, but I am here to remind you that everyone believes that murder is bad (if even when happening to them or their loved ones). The reason I remind you of this is that it often seems popular for people to take the position of accepting several crack pot ideas as valid “opinions” or as being significant to what “other people” believe. In most cases, this kind of nonsense sounds more like an excuse to appear open minded, cultured, and tolerant. I believe it is quite the opposite. But my real question to our society is this: Why is murder a bad thing? Can you explain it to a crowd of people who don’t believe in the same things you do? And what if someone from a different background or culture thinks it is acceptable to murder someone? Do they have the right to murder others simply because they think it is a good idea?

If you are someone who holds personal morals or standards in life, you probably understand why you believe what you do. But if you’re one of these people who claim to believe in nothing and whine about how meaningless existence is, then why care about murder? Why care about genocide, war, injustice, rape, oppression, or anything at all for that matter? Honestly, if we’re just a bunch of animals placed here by chance, why does anything matter at all? I know my examples are extreme, but we live in a world that has become very extreme in it’s thinking and this is getting more out of hand every day. I wonder why so many individuals who claim to be “open minded” don’t see that there are in actually rules in life. I personally don’t believe in brainwash, but I also don’t believe in this ridiculous “anything goes” mentality either. I call it common sense, but some may call it conviction, morals, or social standards.

We do in fact expect things of people on this earth, regardless of their religion, culture, or background. So what are your standards in life? How low are you willing to go to please someone? This may be of little consequence if it comes to minor issues, but when it comes to dealing with world philosophies and opinions, you must realize that people think differently and that thinking differently does not give anyone the right to justify those beliefs if they are…INSANE. Murder is obviously one of these insane philosophies, so my point is that for all you morons out there who love to say “it’s all relative” and “to each their own”, I say (f*** you), wake up and start taking an actual position for justice and good. Use logic and open your eyes…hopefully you will do the right thing.
