Tig O’l Bitties

What the freak am I supposed to look at. You ladies put’em out there amongst other things and then expect us to notice but not look. WTF is that? If you do not want the other children to play with your toys do not bring them to show and tell!

Clueless In Starbucks and Kneel and Bob

My second reference to the ubiquitous Starbucks. However in this case I making reference to an overheard conversation. Two young ladies, if they were a day over 20 I would be surprised, were discussing their respective political stances as so many are with this being an election year. I was quite floored when I heard one inquire of a nearby customer, “Is Hillary Clinton a Democrat or Republican?” only to be further trampled on when her equally astute friend chortled, “Is Obama right or left wing?”. After receiving very quick and biased answers to their questions and admonition to do a little reading the two quickly professed who they would be voting for in November. Ya know I am kind of glad that there is the electoral college, no matter how flawed of a system it is, it still may protect  the populace from blithering idiots like these two. Is it really to much to ask, we’ve been down this road before, for people to think, just a little bit? We all know the popular vote is a meaningless gester given to the populace to pacify their need for inclusion in the pseudo democratic process. Yet it still upsets me though that ding-dongs like the aforementioned regard themselves as qualified to cast a ballot in a process that they feel has lasting impact and merit. If you can not even identify what political party a given candidate belongs to and the fundamental beliefs of the candidate or the party by what means are you arriving at your decision? How do you know if that person is really the right person for the job? Whateva’ man.

OK now on to item number 2. I want to give all of the real haters out there some props. What do I mean by real haters? Those people who openly express their disdain for anyone not like themselves. Skinheads (are they still called that), Neo-Nazis, White Supremacist, those involved in ethnic cleansing, etc. Hey I may not agree with your cause but I respect the fact that you openly and courageously speak your mind and let the rest of the world know where you stand. You do not hide behind politcal correctness or a vale of civility. You do not like these fucking people and thats that. End of story. I just hate these folks that pretend to accept everyone. Then as soon as shit happens they are the first ones to ask about race, ethnicity, etc. Ummmm last time I checked crimes were being committed by all people. Listen you fake ass, brainwashed, bitches, go suck a dick and shut the fuck up. Kneel and bob just kneel and bob, be-yatch!

Same Shizzle Different Dizzle

I guess I should not be amazed by the fact that things are just as crazy now as they were way back when they were not as bad. All things comes come full circle. Our experience is as new as an antique. However what I  have not come to comprehend is why despite the knowledge of the past, and the experience of those that I have traveled the roads before us why some of us continue to make the same damn mistakes. Not just the same mistakes but the same mistake. I was talking to my boy Star and he reiterated a sentiment that I often find myself telling others in regard to adversity and trying times. To struggle is human. In some way or another regardless of our station in life we all will be faced with a struggle of some kind. Accept this fact.  Just be determined to walk away from yours with knowledge of what your struggle was or is, contributing factors, etc. Learn and if possible grow from your struggles. Then perhaps at some later point in time if you can recall your lessons learned from past struggles you might be fortunate enough to minimize or even bypass a struggle.

This only seems logical. Why is it though that some never seem to learn from their own past? Hence the photo reference above, courtesy of yours truly. It is a little out of focus but thats OK. In the event that you do not know what it is, it is a hypodermic needle laying on the ground in a parking lot. Despite all that we have people are still strung out on drugs. Nuff said.
