Because 5 other people on my watch list did so...
Posted 17 years ago[1] Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey?
Yes?
[02] Would you do meth if it was legal?
It depends what kind of meth. If it's speed, sure. Crystal meth, on the other hand, is different. I figure I'd probably have to be in prison for life with no bail before I go to crystal meth.
[03] Abortion: for or against it?
For it. Crimes have statistically dropped since the 1980's when abortions were legalized. The single ghetto mothers who wouldn't be able to afford to give their children a life where they wouldn't have to grow up and steal to get by, can choose not to bring a child into the world under such circumstances. Abortions within a specific time-span of the pregnancy are in no way more murderous than jacking off, using a condom, being a homo, or staying a virgin. Not having sex every chance you get could be considered as killing a potential life (since semen only survive for so long). If it's the mother's heartbeat, it's part of the mother; like a tumor. Sorry if that sounds harsh.
[04] Do you think the world would fail with a female US president?
That is a retarded question. The US doesn't control the fate of the world in all cases. If it were Hilary, I think things would suck for the states because she can't even stick to her own principles. She got bribed by prescription companies to shut up about socialized health care so how the fuck would she be any good as a president? If it were anyone else, I have no idea because I haven't seen any other realistic candidates other than Sarah Palin (and I think we all know that the entire planet is fucked if she ever gets in with McCain).
[05] Do you believe in the death penalty?
No. No. No. I'm also a little disappointed with how many people I know agree with it. First of all, revenge doesn't solve jack-shit. Teaching a lesson can make someone learn, but how the fuck is anyone supposed to learn if they're dead? If you really are bent on seeing someone else suffer for something they've done, put them away for life because that's far worse of a penalty than death. Hypothetically, if some asshole decided to kill your lover, what good would having them die do? That's the most selfish bullshit thing to do in that situation. Think about it. If they die, you're not even causing harm to the one who inflicted the harm in the first place. You're causing the harm to THEIR loved ones. Does it not seem irrational to put someone else through what you're going through? Fuck.
[06] Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
Yes. I hate weed as of a few months ago, but my brother is a nice guy when he's high and I think that for the right people, good can come out of it. If your job requires repetitive tasks as labor, it can actually make you more productive at your job.
[07] Are you for or against premarital sex?
For it. The only reason that it's taboo in society is because of religion. Now why, do you ask, would religion want sex AFTER marriage? Sex after marriage ensures that even if they have some horrible bodily disfigurement that they didn't tell you about, you have to stay with them or you're going to hell. Also, it ensures that the child will be raised with the same religious values. I think it would be better to find out if you're compatible with someone sexually before you get into a commitment.
[08] Do you believe in God?
No. If there's a god, it's not any of the ones we know about.
[09] Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Yes. Personally, I don't need a big party for attention to show everyone else in the world how much I love who I'm with. However, the law says that you can practice religion however you want so legally, you should be allowed to have same-sex marriages in any religion. Also, it's stupid that there are all those benefits with married couples financially, so it would only be fair if same-sex couples had those.
[10] Do you think it's wrong that so many immigrants are moving into the country?
I don't know. Maybe if this question wasn't so black and white, I'd be able to give a better answer. Nothing in life is like that.
[11] A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it?
There's no fucking context to this question. I can't give an appropriate answer.
[12] Should the alcohol age be increased to 21?
No. That's retarded. Kids are drinking below the legal age anyway. Like fuck. France has a drinking age of 14 and they're far less violent than people in the states where the age is 21. I don't think there's much connection to the age and the violence though, and that's exactly my point. There's no reason why it should be increased.
[13] Should the war in Iraq be called off?
Yes. The fact that Bush didn't find WOMD's and just so happened to secure Iraqi oil fields, says something about why we're there in the first place. Blood for oil is retarded. Especially since the world has peaked in oil discovery. Not much time before we're forced to use alternatives (and that's not something we're prepared to do right now).
[14] Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?
Again with the black and white. If someone's too chicken shit to kill themselves, they're being assholes by getting someone else to do it for them. If someone is physically incapable of killing themselves, then I might be able to see how it couldn't be so bad.
[15] Do you believe in spanking your children?
Fuck no. Spanking has never done any good for raising kids. If you don't have the brains to psychologically influence your kids without violence, then you're not fit to raise a kid at all. Spanking has never been about doing what's best for your kid. It's only been about parents getting frustrated to the point where they want to take their anger out on someone who can't defend themselves. That's fucking pathetic.
[16] Would you burn your countries flag for a million dollars?
In privacy, sure. I don't see why lighting a piece of fabric on fire should be illegal. It's only promoting fascism when you send people to jail for it.
[17] Who do you think would make a better US president? McCain or Obama?
Obama. McCain is a mini-Bush, and we can all see how great he is at running the country. Seriously, if you haven't looked into the election objectively, do it now before you vote for McCain. Seriously. Like fucking do some hours of research for both sides. You're going to kill yourselves if McCain gets elected.
[18] What is the biggest problem with society that needs to be dealt with?
There isn't just one. There's population, the oil crisis, Monsanto, McCain, pollution, animal cruelty, the economy, etc. Everything is going down the toilet thanks to generations before us. It's all good for them because they'll be dead before they have to do anything about it. It's like if someone else signed you up for a race and shot your kneecaps right after they blew the starting gun. We've been born into this world with it's destruction already in motion and we're the one's who have to face it.
[19] Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Not afraid. I hope people do. Judging doesn't always have to be a bad thing. I feel as if some people will look at me in a better way after reading this.
Yes?
[02] Would you do meth if it was legal?
It depends what kind of meth. If it's speed, sure. Crystal meth, on the other hand, is different. I figure I'd probably have to be in prison for life with no bail before I go to crystal meth.

BLEGH
Posted 17 years agoI was sleeping in today until my brother came in my room asking me for my debit card. He can't find his wallet and doesn't have enough money to get to work. Making sure I have the last transaction record, I agree and let him take it for today. Seconds later, I get a phone call from Laurel reminding me that it's Helen's birthday party tonight and that I need to buy her a present. Fuck.
I run upstairs and find my brother heading out the door and late for work. I quickly grab my shorts and shirt that I was wearing the previous day, and head out the door with my brother. We stop by a convenience store so I can get him his money, but alas, he is late for work and can't drive me back home. It's raining. I give him the money, grab an energy drink, and start walking. The energy drink doesn't sit to well in my stomach when it's the only thing I've had to drink today. I'm right outside my house after 20 minutes, and I start to vomit in the back-alley. My neighbour is in his garage watching me. There I am in the rain; in mismatched socks, shorts, messy hair, on my cellphone, with an empty can in my hand, and vomiting into a puddle shortly after noon on a Tuesday. He gave me quite the stare.
Awesome.
This horsey needs to have a shower and clean himself up now. :D

Furthest North
Posted 17 years agoI went to FN and it was AWESOME. Yeah the first day I was a little quiet and shy, but I warmed up to everyone soon after that. I would list all who were there, but that would take forever. I hung out with
raptorred and
lucifur mostly which was fun. Yeah. Now it's back to overrated normality. I've gotta find a job. AWESOME!!!
Oh yeah. My fursona was drawn for the first time by the lovely
lainenyah so I'll post it in a second.

Something to write about.
Posted 17 years agoHey guys. Saturday was pretty sweet. I went to the pride parade and met up with
RaptorRed,
orcinus,
amran, and
Beetlecat. I'm finally getting to meet more furs and it is fantastic. Love 'em. I REALLY need to get a fursuit. Anyway, not much more to say. I just wanted to brag about having a fun day.

WTUOJKBMS!
Posted 17 years agoI noticed I didn't have any journals written. Weird. Well anyway, I'm a horsey named Adam. If you're one of my 2 watchers, you probably already know this.
Anyway, I started in the furry fandom when I was 15. I found out because of the number of furs there were on the RedVSBlue forums. Also, that made me get the impression that all furs were nerdy and creepy, when in reality, it was that most people on RedVSBlue were nerdy creeps.
After a while I decided I didn't want to be associated with nerdy creeps so I deleted my profile and anything to do with furries as I proceeded to try and repress anything furry-related out of my head. That obviously didn't work. Don't get me wrong. I love furries more than anything. Almost every fur I've met has been friendly and accepting. It's nice.
A couple months ago, I decided to try and find more furs to talk to so somehow I found
shenro and he located me to the edmontonfurs group on yahoo where I met
Rave_Fox . They basically brought me back into this amazing and loving community. Thanks Shenro and Rave. *hugs*
Anyway, I noticed that
shenro,
Rave_Fox,
zinemerald, and
RaptorRed are the only furs I have on my msn and I'd REALLY like to get to know more furries. If anyone wants to chat with me or knows any furs that would like to kill time by talking to a horsey, my msn is adamcjohnston[at]hotmail.com .
Umm yeah. That's it for this journal I guess; a very long one at that.
