I Rarely Get Really Annoyed With Things…
but I really have to say that the double standards that some people have and their attitudes about the internet really piss me off.
“oh, it is just the internet, it doesn’t matter what I say”
“oh get over it, it is just the internet”
“Of course I would be pissed off if someone said that about my sister, but she is not my sister and she is not your sister, so why do you care what I say about her?”
Are people really this stupid? Do they really believe that just because it is “only the internet” that they have some sort of free pass to say whatever they want about whoever they want and not have to respect anyone because of that?
and what the hell is with people who can make dirty, disgusting, creepy, and disturbing comments about someone that they would absolutely in no way ever have the guts to actually say in person to someone in the real world but yet get totally pissed off if someone else says the exact same things about their sister or mother? I call that a double standard, but these people seem to deny that it is a double standards.
What the hell? and people really wonder why our society is the way it is?
wake the hell up and look in the mirror you F***** Morons!!!
Kind of Useful and Neat
and there are a few people out there who I think I want to go covertly install this on their computers….

That accent you heard in Fargo, yeah, totally represents things out here.
Not to say that people do not make fun of the Boston accent, but to listen to 3 or 4 people talking about things on the radio and hearing that inflection and phrase….
“ohhh yaaaa” repeatedly over and over again while discussing pop stars and Hollywood is rather humorous to listen to, and then you throw in some uber christian sub content to it and you have a grand old time.
I Saw The Best License Plate!
“I KNOW”
that was it!
I think it would be perfect for me!!
Warning For You Fans of 80’s Technology
So… I was relayed a story from a friend earlier tonight and it should serve as a warning for any of you out there who may use this product.
So it was late in the night and alcohol had been involved, but the passion would not be stopped by anything as minor as that…. it was hot, it was rough, it was sweaty and bodies were entangled and slapping with the hardcore lust of two individuals engulfed in the passion….
Then, something weird started to happen… the light across the room began to turn itself off and then on again, over and over…. at first it was ignored, but then it was noticed… and then the laughing and degradation of the moment began…. and the light stopped blinking on and off….
This light….
This small insignificant little light in the corner was turning off and on because of the lust between these individuals… and not because of the banging and movement of the bed causing the light plug to jiggle in and out of the wall….
it was caused by the noise… the hot passionate collision of bodies was making a slapping sound… almost like someone was clapping… yes… clapping… clap on, clap off, THE CLAPPER!!!
So yes, all of you out there who use this vital tool of 80’s television ads be warned, if you use the clapper, then you too could be subjected to uncontrollable turning off and on of the lights in your room if you engage in rough, passionate sex!!!
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!!!

Ok, now I know there are all kinds of conspiracy etc etc about 9/11 and what people think really happened, this is not a blog about that or their beliefs.
This is about all those Americans out there who are trying to prove how great of an American they are by showing off the flag of our country.
There are few things in this world that bother me, and the treatment of our nations flag is one of them, whether you want to uphold your right to free speech and protest by doing things like burning it or other forms of desecration, well I suppose that is your right, but honestly, you are one fucked up individual if you chose to do things like that. That flag is not just some random material that was thrown together, it is a symbol of our country, our fight for freedom, the blood spilled by our forefathers who made it possible for us to exist in this country the way we do today.
You may think that desecrating this symbol is a protest about our government in this day and age, but it really is not anything of the sort, that flag is not a symbol of what our leaders are doing in the present day, that flag is a symbol of what our forefathers were able to accomplish for us, and what those soldiers a long time ago volunteered for and paid for with their own blood.
it is not a symbol of WW1, WW2, Vietnam, Iraq I, Iraq II or any other confrontation that our country has been in within the last century, it is a symbol of our forefathers from the revolutionary war, and a symbol of the way our country sticks together when it has to.
There are specific rules on when and how a flag should be displayed and honored at all times, as well as how it should be folded, stored, as well as the proper upkeep of our flag.
If you have any questions about anything that involves our flag, feel free to ask me and I will be happy to explain the proper way that it can and should be displayed, how it needs to be folded, stored, and if one becomes torn, tattered, or dirty, the proper way to retire a flag, or the proper people to give it to in order to allow it to be properly retired with the respect it deserves.
for reference:
These people are NOT being patriotic with their use of the flag, no matter how good their intentions are, their actions undermine their intent and their pseudo-patriotism.
These are clear examples of improper methods of display of a flag, and a disgusting desecration of our flag to suit their political agenda.
A link for the US code which describes proper care and display requirements for our flag.
Proper Flag Treatment
What the Hell Am I Exactly?
With the recent events going on I have had a lot of free time to think about things, past relationships and how I have changed.
So in looking at my past relationships I have tried to figure out exactly what I am….
Pre-game warmups?
Exhibition game?
Pre-Season?
Practice Squad?
What is it? Why does it seem like anyone who I have actually dated for any extended period and had more than a 1 or 2 date relationship with, has gone and gotten married or engaged and some have even popped out a kid or 2 with the person they started to date right after me, excluding the quick hook up rebound that a couple have had right after me.
Are they all freaky coincidences? or am I some sort of pre-requisite to help people figure out what they want out of life and then go figure it out?
What I want to know is…. When the hell can I get to the regular season?!?! The playoffs can wait, I just want to make it through a season with a chance at the playoffs and then maybe make it to the championship game.
Ya know? I am sick of being the Pittsburgh Pirates or Kansas City Royals of relationships!
and yeah, some of you who know me, I am serious!!
Cool Crowd VS. Weird Crowd?
From what I can tell here in California, the cool kids hang out at the In and Out Burger on Friday nights, take up space, make a mess, and eat fries and burgers while drinking as much free refill soda as they can..
and the weirdo crowd… well from what I can tell…. they work at In and Out Burger, cooking the cool kids food, taking their money, and cleaning up their mess.
Interesting dynamic I think, don’t you?
A Week Since My Last Update
Yeah.. busy week… to summarize….
I am back in California this week, same place as last week and it will be the same place next week.. I am coming home for the weekend though since I have a bunch of things to do and want to go get my newsed car registered on Monday.
Still trying to deal with VW on the situation with my car but I bought a Saab in the mean time to get me around when I am home. I figure once I get my car back I will either go enter a demolition derby with the Saab, or sell it. Depends on my mood at the time.
So CA is not all that interesting, I am working 11-17 hour days while I am here, and working is not really working since I sit here, and watch a computer screen and try to clear up any problems that happen.
Their system keeps locking up because of the way our programmers programmed the system, they fucked up so I need to sit and keep this thing on life support while they write new code to try to compensate for the problem.
Fuck, but on the upside, I am earning a ton of FF miles, Holiday Inn Priority points, I am not spending any of my own money on anything, and I am really cranking up the billable hours!!! I think I might almost be at my quarterly amount and I am only a couple weeks into the year!
What I am really waiting for is 11 days from now for my paycheck, that is gonna be the nice one, my 4th quarter bonus and then all the leftover from my 2nd and 3rd quarters that they held back from me last year.
I had tried to write a couple blogs earlier this week but the damn thing kept screwing up on me so I could not post em… oh well….
if you are ever in Watsonville, CA – then definitely check out Green Valley Grill and Cilantro’s Mexican restaurants. They are both really good. I had a very nice double breast of duck with a juniper, raspberry and red wine reduction with saphron rice and then at Cilantros I had some soft tacos ‘con carne asada’ and orange rice, and they were all really really good!
I am on the red eye home tonight, same as last week and same as planned for next week. That was the reason I did not make it to the show last week, I was totally drained and slept off and on Sat afternoon and was just too wiped to go out in public!
have a great weekend and hope all is well with all of you!
