The awesome things you can find at a secondhand thriftshop.
General | Posted 11 years agoThe awesome things you can find at a secondhand thriftshop/goodwill store, here's some I found:
3 person contemporary squared black bonded leather couch, $90 (retail for $400)
Numerous black leather coats, pants, and trenchcoats somewhere around $100 for 20+ items (retailed for an estimated $2k)
New leather high-backed computer chair $25 (retailed for $250)
Old leather computer chair "The Vice Principal special" made in America in the 1980s in perfect condition $20 (similar Made in USA style retails now for over $450!)
Logitech THX 2.1 computer speaker setup $15 (retails for $250)
Countless 1970s-80s mens short shorts "very short shorts, hubba hubba style" Usually $1-2 a pop (retail for $20+ each depending on brand)
All kinds of awesome black heavy metal and skull shirts usually under $2 each (retail for $9-20+)
There have been times where I find something worth a ton at a goodwill store or fleamarket and then turn around and sell it for 10X the price on ebay. It is like friggin' treasure hunting.
There is a reason I laugh every time someone brags about the $600 they just paid for an Iphone that isn't any better than the previous model that still worked.
Buying used is smart, environmentally friendly, and full of awesome... Buying new is for consumer whores that want to kill the world and make Chinese children commit suicide. ^_^

1st world problems, popufurs, and furry panhandlers.
General | Posted 11 years ago1st world problems and furry jerkbag panhandlers.
*edit* If you have any you want me to add to the list we have all likely seen before but I didn't mention here, let me know and I will update this, even if you want to shoot me a note.
So... Maybe I'm just an asshole but this is a trend I am noticing more and more with people in this fandom, and in general.... Especially now with "crowdfunding" and "social media" and the like.
This journal was a long time coming...
Warning... May contain fucking harsh motherfucking language, and general truth spewing asscocks! Not for the squeamish of butt or those under the age of intelligence.
I’m going full George Carlin mode here: shit, piss, fuck, cunt, cocksucker, motherfucker, and tits!
First off, I want “you”, the reader of this here journal, to know I have no problem with people that want to rant about a shitty experience, or shitty service, or crappy product, or a bad day at work, or even life in general, especially if it is done in a hilarious, informative, or creative way… Hey, it hopefully saves me from running into the same shitty problem, so let ‘er rip...
This is specifically a rant about people that whine and bitch purely to get free money from nice people, and take advantage of the generosity of strangers and friends to do something greedy and selfish because they are having “First world Problems.”
OH MY GAWDS YOU WHINY, LYING, LAZY, LITTLE BITCHES! Stop taking advantage of all the nice people in this or any other fandom, and in general for that matter!
Don't ask for help or advice when all you want is ego stroking E-SYMPATHY and FREE MONEY, and then DELETE/IGNORE any RESPONSES from people like me ROOTED IN REALITY or trying to offer ACTUAL HELPFUL ADVICE that would fix your problem instead of you getting free money, you fucking, lying, predatory, little, fuzzy, douche-shark panhandlers!
I can understand if you have an actual legitimate reason to ask for money in an actual life or death type way, medical bills, sick pets, sick/dying family member, those are all perfectly acceptable reasons to ask for help and this journal is not for you at all… But not because you got bored of an old thing and want a new thing! And if you lie about said "actual" serious things to get a spooging Bad Dragon dildo then you deserve a special kind of facefucking with a rusty chainsaw! (I saw a furry asking for money for his sick puppy that didn't actually exist then make a journal a day later about getting a new horse cock dildo. I'm sorry but no one goes from sick puppy to bragging about getting a horse cock dildo the next day unless they were dirty fucking liars. It was later confirmed by an acquaintance of mine this person didn't even have a dog.)
There are a lot of nice people in this fandom and other fandoms, nice to a fault, that do not know when they are being taken for a ride or unable or willing to realize it and stand up to it because of all the “tolerance and love” bullshit I keep hearing about. I love this fandom, but I don’t tolerate shit! Tolerance is just another word for dealing with shit you hate or do not like. If you say you “tolerate” someone that just means you admitted to hating or not liking said person or thing. If someone says they tolerate gays, or tolerate jews, or anything like that, I say FUCK YOU! Hate me, love me, or don’t give a shit about me… But don’t tolerate me!
Oh how transparent you can be, when being P.C.
(heh… I’m a poet and didn’t even know it! I make a rhyme every time! I better stop here, before I start sounding queer.)
You may already know what I'm talking about, but in case not, here are some headline titles or conversations I see way too often, all over the place, with a bit of my signature ferretyness thrown in:
-Laptop broken, need money, life falling apart without easy access to porn… Err… I mean my job/college stuff, yeah, that’s it! Any donations help...
(It blue-screened once because you didn't bother to blow the dust out of the fan and it overheated and auto-shutdown. It is also not the world’s fault you never thought to make a back-up. In all reality you are just tired of it and want a newer/better one for free, you lying jackass.)
-My hard drive HDD may be dying, please help by donating to my so and so funding site. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
(This has got to be the most common one I see. And they always ask for help and advice when all they really want is FREE FUCKING MONEY! I have even offered people FREE WORKING HARD DRIVES and old RAM I have lying around if they would just pay for the shipping! I shit you not! And they always delete/ignore or give the run around the comments I leave, especially about how to troubleshoot computer problems or properly back it up, clone it, or do data recovery since I have done all that shit for a living, fuck I should charge THEM for the advice I give! Ungrateful shits.)
-I dropped my $300-600 cellphone and it broke... plz halp!
(First off you are a dumb ass for spending $300-600 on a damn cellphone that breaks just because you dropped it 2 feet and not getting a fucking warranty you little turd sniffer! I got a $75 android phone I can throw down the stairs without a single problem, perhaps you are just a consumer whore? Don't buy expensive shit if you can't take care of it or can't afford to lose it! And then you delete my "trying to be helpful like you asked for" comments about possibly getting a cheaper cell phone, or a metal otter-box case for the new one, or perhaps buy last year’s model, or a used one off e-bay, because you know people would realize you are trying to SCAM THEM when you didn't try taking said advice. You might as well just say "Give me money because I'm an idiot and want the iphone 6 because it has a higher numerical value than the iphone 5, but I can’t afford it right now" or keep it short and sweet “I want you to pay for something because I don’t want to” at least then you would have been honest. LOL)
-Miscellaneous expensive electronic item is broken/too old/a newer model is out and I tire of this one that still works perfectly fine... So buy my furry YCH Adoptable DLCs for an exaggerated and abnormally high price because I'm a "popufur" and you will pay anything to suck my overpriced smut drawing e-penis...
(Yup... Might as well call YCHs and Adoptables "Furry DLC" because that is what they are. I have seen people pay twice as much for “Furry DLC” than what said popufur asks for normal commission artwork because it had some story about how crappy life is without netflix, or grey goose vodka or such attached to it. Now if it had been Malibu rum and you wanted to share some with me, I woulda donated to that shit yo! In all honesty it is a free market and if people want to buy your stuff, more power to you, but don't make a bullshit story to try to wring some nice person of their every last penny.)
-I just spilled a glass of milk on the granite counter tops in my mom’s newly renovated kitchen, now I want to kill myself... plz donate to keep me alive!
(I shit you not... There are people that threaten the internet to kill themselves if they don't get free money from said internet... Is that like, holding yourself hostage? Do we need to send in a police negotiator to get you to let yourself go? You know what? Go ahead and do it! At least then I will know you were serious. I don't negotiate with terrorists. LOL)
-Uuugh… Life is so hard! I need a motor scooter because I don’t like walking the 1 mile back and forth from my apartment to college classes, but I can’t afford it. Halp plox!
(Okay… What the fuck is “plox”? Is that a person? Or some shitty dumbass internet way of saying “Please”? Okay, so you are not working and in college, and are a lazy fuckball, and you want OTHER PEOPLE to pay to get you a motor scooter? Let me guess, liberal arts degree? You want to be a game designer perhaps? LOfuckinL. Shit, you want a scooter so badly, take out a college loan or get a job and stop trying to take advantage of internet peeps, you lazy bag of dicks!)
-Bills for entertainment items too expensive, please pay them for me, I'll love you forever, or until the next person pays for my bills!
(I dunno... Howabout... NO! YOU FUCKING ASSHAT! If you cannot afford your Xbox live account or fucking Netflix subscriptions then that is just how life works. MASTURBATION IS FREE! And much more rewarding than Netflix or xbox.)
-I can't afford to go to a furry convention, please pay for my hotel room and plane tickets and I will give you a shitty 30 second sketch on a napkin if you donate over $50 and pay for the shipping of the napkin.
(You know what? FUCK YOU! You little dick shitting popufur. If you cannot afford to go to the furry convention, THEN DON'T FUCKING GO! Or maybe try doing commissions like the actual hard working artists and creative people in this fandom instead of using and abusing people for a free fucking ride for you to get drunk and fuck random strangers at a convention! It is assholes like you that are making this fandom less fun by the second with all your, "give me free stuff because I'm a self entitled douchebag with internet fame in a specific fandom." Guess what? Being popular in the furry fandom is like winning in the special Olympics... Even when you win, you are still a friggin' tard.)
-Going homeless... My roommates are jerkbags, or parents are assholes, and I need money to afford to move somewhere else.. Oh and my $2000 fursuit I just got is freaking awesome.
(Wait a minute... You know you have to pay rent every month or follow certain rules to live where you live.... Didn't you just brag about spending $1500 on a new fursuit and an Xbox one in a previous journal? You idiotic little shit bag, you spent your rent money on your stupid pointless shit didn't you?!? You know what? Enjoy being homeless you worthless shit, maybe your fursuit will keep you warm while you suck diseased dicks in back alleys for food money!)
And last, but not least…
-I’m lonely, and my internet fuckbuddy… Err… I mean person I love so very much that I have never met in the real world, or met at a furry convention ONCE and have known for an eternity in a online forum textfucking... I mean cuddling,... for a few WEEKS... wants me to fly 6bajillion miles out to him in Bumblefuck Egypt, but I can’t afford the plane ticket, will you please help me get there by donating to my crowd funding project? If you believe in true love… Give to me all your monies!!!
(This one is taken from YEARS of seeing this or similar shit… All I can say is… The dude or chick you love online is likely the opposite gender you are hoping for and like 20 years older or younger than you, if not a cop or serial killer. If you met them ONCE at a furry con, and by “met” I mean: fucked a random stranger you barely knew while high or drunk off your ass; It is probably best you find your love interest more locally, like within easy to reach distance that doesn’t involve panhandling for money from strangers to get you to the fuck dungeon, I mean, “lover” you are so sadly fucking desperate for, that is, in all honesty, most likely just going to end in heartbreak or your body getting dumped in a ditch.)
Anyway…
All of you jerkbag assholes, using and abusing the kindness of friends and strangers alike, in this fandom or elsewhere, either subconsciously or consciously, for your own material bullshit, need to fucking sit and spin on a rusty, spiked, AIDS coated, Ebola dick… And die.
Hopefully you get the idea what I’m talking about from these examples, and if any of these examples have pissed you off, then you are likely one of these types of greedy, lazy, panhandling, douchebags, taking advantage of nice people in the fandom. Now if you are actually agreeing with me, you are likely someone I would get along with. *chuckles*
Thank you. *bows* Rant over.
You may now go about your regular business… AS LONG AS THAT BUSINESS ISN'T RIPPING OFF KINDHEARTED PEOPLE!
Go ahead and link or re-post this journal all you want, somebody had to say this, might as well be me. ^_^

When "Conspiracy Nuts" are right. Militarized Police.
General | Posted 11 years agoSo... Shit's been pretty nutty recently all around the world and at home, huh? Or are you more interested in some pop-star diva flashing her muff in public?
As a bit of a divergent-ish/global/outside the box thinker I notice a lot of things a lot of people are completely oblivious to. One of those things is what is happening in the world around us as whole and on a localized level as well.
Now for the term: "Conspiracy Nuts." I mean people that are labeled as such because they are more aware of what is or may be going on "behind the scenes" and the world around them that isn't in the spotlight for all to see... I do NOT mean the people that think lizard aliens are running some secret organization that wants to harvest humans for their tasty meats; those people are just plain old nuts, like super chunky peanut butter… NUTS.
A particularly unsettling thing I hear often enough is, "It cannot/will not happen here." Basically referring to something horrible that may have happened elsewhere, or at a previous time, apparently not having a remote possibility of happening "here." AKA wherever here is at the time, because said person doesn't want to question their false illusion of freedom or safety.
History can, will, and does repeat itself, sometimes over and over again. If we do not learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. History professors or anyone that has lived though said "thing that cannot happen" will usually tell you this right off the bat.
Now, while I can understand to an extent, that our world can be a dark and often times depressing place, it doesn't mean you should escape reality while trying to live in it at the same time, all the time. Sometimes you really need to stop and look up and around yourself, figuratively and literally. I've been around people on Geological Survey and camping trips that have lived in a big city all their lives and always seemed bummed out until they lost cell phone reception and suddenly noticed the beautiful stars in the sky they had never REALLY seen before (seriously, I had never met a person that had never actually seen the stars before, let alone a group of them)... To the point that a group of these "big city dwellers" stayed up all night lying on their backs staring at the stars. Most of them described it as a spiritual experience the next day and were suddenly all happy, if not a bit tired.
Most people are so busy with the minutia of their everyday lives that they never stop and look at the world around them, as if they have blinders on and are running down a linear path. Even getting annoyed and downright pissed off if you so much as try to bring the real world into their fragile little constructed realities. I often hear things like "politics are for politicians" or "I don't like politics, they are depressing and better suited for politicians" or "The police will protect me" or "That was then, this is now" or "It would never happen here" or "That just sounds like a silly conspiracy, now let me update my Facebook friends about where I am and send them pictures of what I'm eating." History shows us that when people in general have these types of thoughts, guess what? ... History starts repeating again, and then they are suddenly surprised they didn't see it coming from a mile away like the people they so often label as "conspiracy nuts."
Something I have mentioned to or pointed out to people is the whole bullshit “war on terrorism” and that taking your shoes off at an airport and getting an anal cavity search by a dumb high-school drop-out TSA agent is not going to stop someone from blowing up your plane if they really wanted to. I doubt a shampoo bottle blew up the plane over the Ukraine, as I’m pretty sure the missile fired from the ground is responsible for that one.
Or the bullshit “War on Drugs.” Have people not learned ANYTHING from the MASSIVE FAILURE of prohibition in the 1920s-30s? You outlaw a “sin or vice” item people really like, and guess what? The criminals happily step in to fill said void at an increased cost to the consumer, and we are still dealing with Mob bosses and criminal shit dating back to the 1920s still in the 2000s because of that short period of time where booze was banned. The police don’t need tanks and military training to “combat” drugs… No… If a person wants to shoot smack into both their eyeballs in the privacy of their own home, without hurting someone else in the process, fucking let them! I’m so tired of all this nanny state crap. Politicians thinking they know what’s better for society at large just so the Police can have an excuse to crash through buildings in big expensive military equipment to take a dudes dime bag of pot (that they more likely planted there when they couldn’t find any ‘real’ drugs) and put him in a for profit prison for life.
These people that believe the “war on terror” or “war on drugs” is working are ALL morons.
These are the same people that might actually believe the old US propaganda films that ducking and covering under a desk will save them from a nuclear attack. Just like they may believe locking a door and cowering in a corner will save them from a madman with a gun in a gun-free zone… Or that the police will suddenly materialize and protect them from harm in a dark alley, or even broad daylight somewhere.
Politicians and the media even have a term for these types of people; they call them “Low Information Types.” Like people that vote one party constantly because that is what they have always done, without doing a single bit of research on available candidates (this is the reason there are “ELECT SO AND SO” signs all over or attack ads and such)… Or in the media, these are the people that only watch left or right leaning news channels because said people and channels label “the other guys” as the “bad guys.”
There has been no time that I can remember in post civil war American history that people have been so divided. At the same time, these same people on both sides were, up until recently, saying “It can’t happen here.” Any time I mentioned that a majority of the police in America are now a damn militarized, standing Army with fully automatic military weapons, and military vehicles! Jack-booted thugs with no faces or names to follow their terrible conduct amongst “we the people” and treated as if they are above the law and above social reproach. The tanks are driving down the streets, and have been for nearly 20 years now, you just never see it outside of youtube because they ban or censor the media with an iron fist, or beat the shit out of or confiscate the cameras of everyone they see…
This is YET another reason why NET NEUTRALITY is so fucking IMPORTANT!
And here we are now, where some people are finally seeing just how bad things have become in the last few decades. Before the last few days, I was just another “conspiracy nut” whenever I talked about the shit going on right now.
I have a little list of things people NEED to be talking about and pushing for:
-The police in America HAVE TO BE DE-MILITARIZED! There are no exceptions. They are a standing army, and are not protecting or serving anyone but private and political interests.
-The ENTIRE U.S. FOR PROFIT PRISION SYSTEM needs to be outright BANNED and made illegal in every way possible! Non-violent, victimless offenders need to be given community service like many other countries do, or outright left alone, instead of having their lives ruined and thrown in jail at the tax-payers’ expense.
-I also support police wearing cameras at all times, recording EVERYTHING unless they are on private property and the owner or residents of said private property ask them not to be recording. (This alone would help with everything from police brutality being reduced, to false lawsuits on the police being reduced, Helping save the taxpayers even more money. Win Win.) There are already cameras on every street corner so people should feel safer knowing a Police officer will be less likely to beat their head in for looking at them funny while they walk down a public street.
-I also believe that all LEOs (Law Enforcement Officers) federal and local alike be randomly drug tested, including steroid use, and thoroughly psychologically evaluated and background checked every year from the lowest ranks to the top ranks, no exceptions!
-They also need to give police in high stress areas more paid vacation time so they can calm the fuck down.
-There also need to be safe ways for “The Good Cops” to report “The Bad Cops.” Police corruption needs to be taken seriously and needs to be investigated by an INDEPENDENT civilian source, NOT by other Law Enforcement Agencies that are or can be just as corrupt. (Who watches the watchmen?)
- And (“Section 1033 of the National Defense Authorization Act of 1997, that authorizes the Department of Defense to transfer excess MILITARY property to state and local law enforcement agencies. Preference is given to “counter-drug” and “counter-terrorism” activities. Types of Property that can be obtained: Body armor, night vision equipment, APC's, aircraft, first aid supplies, weapons, surveillance equipment, Kevlar helmets, gas masks and filters, vehicles, etc.”) <-- This whole section needs to be ABOLISHED, GONE, BYE-BYE. Hell, axe the NDAA and the Patriot Act all together! The Anti-2nd amendment types constantly say “we don’t want weapons of war on our streets.” Well then, stop letting the police get said weapons of war, you fucking morons! Police should only be allowed access to the same weapons that non-police civilians are, period, end of story.
-And lastly, there needs to be a return of C.O.P. Or “Citizens on Patrol” or “Community Oriented Policing” or “Community Outreach Program” This is a throwback to when police used to “walk” a beat and interact with the community at large. Even if it is purely done with old retired police officers that want to show that not all police are big scary bad guys with machineguns and KKK memberships. Hell do like my city does and put the fat and overweight police on bicycle duty till they can pass the physical course again. This needs to come back, because Police whizzing around in squad cars at high speed, making their monetary quota of speeders is not making communities safer or increasing any sort of respect for police. Right now a majority of people in the U.S.A. (at least according to a bunch of polls) are more scared of the police than they are of criminals. That should be a huge fuckin’ red flag!
Not all police officers are bad guys that want to re-arrange your face for being a minority, but there is a SERIOUS problem with certain police and police departments at the moment in America.
Police are CIVILIAN LAW ENFORCEMENT… NOT soldiers of war!
For “we the people” to respect the police, we need the police to respect “we the people.”
...
As for "conspiracy nuts" sometimes they are actually worth listening to, because they may know more than you do.
As a bit of a divergent-ish/global/outside the box thinker I notice a lot of things a lot of people are completely oblivious to. One of those things is what is happening in the world around us as whole and on a localized level as well.
Now for the term: "Conspiracy Nuts." I mean people that are labeled as such because they are more aware of what is or may be going on "behind the scenes" and the world around them that isn't in the spotlight for all to see... I do NOT mean the people that think lizard aliens are running some secret organization that wants to harvest humans for their tasty meats; those people are just plain old nuts, like super chunky peanut butter… NUTS.
A particularly unsettling thing I hear often enough is, "It cannot/will not happen here." Basically referring to something horrible that may have happened elsewhere, or at a previous time, apparently not having a remote possibility of happening "here." AKA wherever here is at the time, because said person doesn't want to question their false illusion of freedom or safety.
History can, will, and does repeat itself, sometimes over and over again. If we do not learn from history, we are doomed to repeat it. History professors or anyone that has lived though said "thing that cannot happen" will usually tell you this right off the bat.
Now, while I can understand to an extent, that our world can be a dark and often times depressing place, it doesn't mean you should escape reality while trying to live in it at the same time, all the time. Sometimes you really need to stop and look up and around yourself, figuratively and literally. I've been around people on Geological Survey and camping trips that have lived in a big city all their lives and always seemed bummed out until they lost cell phone reception and suddenly noticed the beautiful stars in the sky they had never REALLY seen before (seriously, I had never met a person that had never actually seen the stars before, let alone a group of them)... To the point that a group of these "big city dwellers" stayed up all night lying on their backs staring at the stars. Most of them described it as a spiritual experience the next day and were suddenly all happy, if not a bit tired.
Most people are so busy with the minutia of their everyday lives that they never stop and look at the world around them, as if they have blinders on and are running down a linear path. Even getting annoyed and downright pissed off if you so much as try to bring the real world into their fragile little constructed realities. I often hear things like "politics are for politicians" or "I don't like politics, they are depressing and better suited for politicians" or "The police will protect me" or "That was then, this is now" or "It would never happen here" or "That just sounds like a silly conspiracy, now let me update my Facebook friends about where I am and send them pictures of what I'm eating." History shows us that when people in general have these types of thoughts, guess what? ... History starts repeating again, and then they are suddenly surprised they didn't see it coming from a mile away like the people they so often label as "conspiracy nuts."
Something I have mentioned to or pointed out to people is the whole bullshit “war on terrorism” and that taking your shoes off at an airport and getting an anal cavity search by a dumb high-school drop-out TSA agent is not going to stop someone from blowing up your plane if they really wanted to. I doubt a shampoo bottle blew up the plane over the Ukraine, as I’m pretty sure the missile fired from the ground is responsible for that one.
Or the bullshit “War on Drugs.” Have people not learned ANYTHING from the MASSIVE FAILURE of prohibition in the 1920s-30s? You outlaw a “sin or vice” item people really like, and guess what? The criminals happily step in to fill said void at an increased cost to the consumer, and we are still dealing with Mob bosses and criminal shit dating back to the 1920s still in the 2000s because of that short period of time where booze was banned. The police don’t need tanks and military training to “combat” drugs… No… If a person wants to shoot smack into both their eyeballs in the privacy of their own home, without hurting someone else in the process, fucking let them! I’m so tired of all this nanny state crap. Politicians thinking they know what’s better for society at large just so the Police can have an excuse to crash through buildings in big expensive military equipment to take a dudes dime bag of pot (that they more likely planted there when they couldn’t find any ‘real’ drugs) and put him in a for profit prison for life.
These people that believe the “war on terror” or “war on drugs” is working are ALL morons.
These are the same people that might actually believe the old US propaganda films that ducking and covering under a desk will save them from a nuclear attack. Just like they may believe locking a door and cowering in a corner will save them from a madman with a gun in a gun-free zone… Or that the police will suddenly materialize and protect them from harm in a dark alley, or even broad daylight somewhere.
Politicians and the media even have a term for these types of people; they call them “Low Information Types.” Like people that vote one party constantly because that is what they have always done, without doing a single bit of research on available candidates (this is the reason there are “ELECT SO AND SO” signs all over or attack ads and such)… Or in the media, these are the people that only watch left or right leaning news channels because said people and channels label “the other guys” as the “bad guys.”

Losing faith in humanity, one jumper cable at a time.
General | Posted 11 years agoThis is another one of my: "Losing faith in humanity, one person at a time" posts.
This happened a few weeks ago and I felt I just had to share it for the Lawls... This will not be in MLA format, or grammar checked, because I make up too many flarging motherpumping derpwords.
Oh yeah... Commas and Ellipsis for the win!
So was with 2 other furry fuck-sticks (I mean it as a term of endearment! You fuck-sticks know who you are and I lurve you both, but one more than the other, because penis and living in same house as me.) ^_^... Had some shitty feelgood food at a hometown buffet because AMERICA and fucking bacon and ice-cream on top of pizza rules! (you can decide if we ate it or fucked it, possibly both)...
We leave the Fatass Buffet full of food and much poop...
And see a 1969 Charger in the Best Buy parking lot....
So we had to go over and start drooling over said 1969 Charger that a guy drove every day. So of course I HAD to talk to the guy about all things Mopar and let him show off his car, because who the hell drives a car that most guys would pay $120k for, as a daily driver? That is a special guy and he had a great story to go with it... Was very satisfying and would make a great Michael J.J. Abrhams Bay directed action movie.
We all talked to him for a little over an hour and he had to take off after some weird drug baked rich white boy driving a slammed POS Mercedes with a universal body kit zip tied on, stared foaming at the mouth pretending he knew shit about anything car related when he didn't even know if his own Mercedes had a 6cylinder engine or a V8 (I mean total druggie baked stoner tool white boy with the backwards hat, sagging pants, and talking like he was some hot shit black rapper)... Though we put up with him because, 1969 Charger being driven everyday!
So the battery in the PT died because a door was open or lights were on or such, because, 1969 Charger being driven everyday! (If you know what a 'trailer queen' is, it was not one, and I hate trailer queens.) So anyway dead battery, only needed a quick jump and all would be great so we could get home and poop and or throw up... But the fuck-stick I love most "lost" his jumpers that I have told him everyone that drives should always have in their car because, reasons like fucking this goddamn situation right here!
So we think: "Crap! AAA will take forever to show up, lets just politely ask around."
Here is where humanity shines, was even going to give whoever helped us $10 bucks... And this is a bright faggy sparkle blue PT cruiser GT... Not exactly an evil looking car like my 1965 300...
The following is just a small sample of helpful people:
-Mom with snot nosed kids in minivan, gets in minivan as quickly as possible and takes off as if a bunch of faggots like us were going to hump her in her floppy stretched out beef-curtains.
-Mexicans in pickup truck, halfheartedly look around in places NO ONE with a pickup would EVER put jumper cables! Then say "sorry man, we took em' out yesterday."
-fart sniffing pricks in Toyota Prius "Oh... We don't keep jumper cables in THIS car." then walk off with their noses in the air like they were on a power walking marathon for a dildo made of gold.
-Dude with 1 kid and raised SUV that could fit 20, "Oh sorry, I had to take them out yesterday."
-rich prick couple with Lexus. Walks away really fast ignoring us completely as if we were piss covered homeless guys asking for spare change. (I had deodorant on and changed into a fresh thong 4 days ago... Sheesh, some people!)
-Guy in utility box truck with more toolboxes on it than a hardware store, "Sorry man... Had to take them out yesterday."
-Stupid white guy with backwards baseball cap with stupid stickers still all over the brim in riced Piece of shit Honda with stickers of car parts he didn't even have in said car, "Nah Brah I don't keep jumpers in here because it might mess with my delicate electronics, but good luck brah." His car also had a "double euro racing stripe backwards and on the passenger side, I made sure to point out he was a moron... Much like the fuck-stick I love so much that lost his jumpers.
....
Meanwhile, we are doing this and druggy McWhiteboyburnout is making deals with people all around us for whatever his code words for drugs was, we think (maybe he was actually getting a deal on new sub-woofers with random dudes), He says he knows a guy at a nearby dealership that would have some jumpers to spare (likely he meant drugs)... So we send the fuck-stick I love most off with druggy McSpazzface in his limo tinted front window, honda civic body-kitted, Mercedes, to nearby discount Car-mart, or certain death and or incarceration.
Me and other fuck-stick ask a few more jerkbags that, for some reason, ALL took their jumper cables out of their cars "the other day." I guess there was some massive party in the area and a small 1 square foot coil of jumper cables must have got in the way of all their beer and hotdogs and happy prescription medications, or something...
So at this point I go: "Meh... Lets just relax here while I call AAA like I should have done from the start, because people suck." So I call, and am all, in my most faggoty of voices telling the big black lady on the AAA service line about my fabulous Sparkle blue PT cruiser having a tizzy of a time starting and likely needing a big strong Adonis in a shining tow truck to come out and give its battery a sensual massage back to life, until she was laughing her ass off on the other end of the line along with many people in her office since we had to be on speaker phone by that time and could hear them all. (Side note... Humor can make tow trucks show up faster... Proven fact!)
While we are waiting some dude and his jail-bait girlfriend decide to rob the nearby Best Buy of display cellphones, and cops are suddenly all over the place like someone just shot the President of Uranus (heh), or such.... Yay entertainment! I thought I would trip the bad guy as he ran by, but knowing California I'd likely get sued for injuring a poor defenseless criminal so I just laughed as all the overweight cops waddled after the dude.
Then I thought, Oh crap, where did the fuck-stick I love so much go? Hope he isn't dead or had his butt ruined by someone other than me. At this point said fuck-stick calls and says, like we all suspected, that "Daddys-mercedes-McDruggy-toolboy" didn't know shit and was busy rambling about something to a person that was actually a palm tree (I shit you not)... So fuck-stick that I love so much was walking back with no jumpers.
Meanwhile the cops are beating the holy living hell out of the guy that took display phones and can't find his jail-bait girlfriend.
-For the hell of it I decide to ask a guy in an electrical utility truck if he had any way to jump-start the fag-mobile. The second he said "Sorry..." I cut him off and said, "Lemmie guess, you took them out yesterday." and he goes, "Uh.. Yeah... Sorry man."
.... >.< Motherfucking ELECTRICAL truck... With wires all over it!
No way to jump...
Took em' out yesterday...
... Did I ever mention how much I love humanity and how much people care in the world? No? Because they FUCKING DON'T!
THEN THE TOW TRUCK SHOWS UP 30 minutes after calling AAA (without humor it usually takes them over an hour and a half to forever and then some), Jump-starts the turbocharged sparkle-wagon in 2 seconds... The fuck-stick I love so much makes it back with his butthole still intact (at least until bedtime, giggitty!), and we make a blue sparkly rainbow B-line for the nearest Pep-Boys to force him to buy some goddamned, motherfucking, jumper cables!
Moral of the story: Umm... People are lying assholes, and sometimes an asshole asking nicely for a jump start may give you $10 bucks or more for jump starting his fag-mobile and thereby removing some of your general asshole status... Or rape and kill you (gotta be realistic here, don't jump start the batteries of guys with white windowless vans that say free candy on the side... Well... Unless they actually have free candy... Yummy!)... So... Yeah, ya never know, but when someone asks me if I have jumper cables in my cars, and I do, I go "Fuck yes, I will gladly jump start the shit out of your car so you can go on with your motherfucking glorious day!"
This happened a few weeks ago and I felt I just had to share it for the Lawls... This will not be in MLA format, or grammar checked, because I make up too many flarging motherpumping derpwords.
Oh yeah... Commas and Ellipsis for the win!

Assumption memememe?

Whatever happened to "Agree to disagree" or "Middle Ground"?
General | Posted 11 years agoWhen was the last time anyone said "Let's just agree to disagree, and move on before things get out of hand"?
This has a lot to do with politics, media influence, people imposing their morals upon others, and society in general nowadays... Personally I'm talking form an American standpoint where we have a legal freedom of speech, even if it may hurt feelings, or be considered an unpopular opinion.
Seriously, what happened to being able to having a discussion or debate with someone without it devolving into a shouting match where opinions are treated as facts? More and more it seems discussions are ending up in the "I'm right and you are wrong", or "If you don't agree with me entirely then obviously you are against me and agree with: them, they, the enemy."
It all seems to be a part of the massive divide I have seen growing in all aspects of life where if you are not part of one extreme then you must, automatically, be part of "the other" or "opposing" extreme.
I constantly see this online, on all sides of the media, and in conversations that often started off casual and friendly.
For example these are some of my personal experiences:
If I don't agree with the way Democrats are running certain things I am labeled a republican, conservative, fascist, redneck, sister-fucker. If I don't agree with the ways republicans are running something I am suddenly labeled a commie, pinko, liberal, hippie, pot-smoker.
If I say I don't believe in the popular "god" then I am automatically a hell bound atheist. If I say I believe in the possibility of there being more to the universe than humans can comprehend I am suddenly an uneducated fool that denies science.
If I am pro-gun for law abiding citizens I am labeled as a mass murderer. If I am pro-background check then I must be anti-gun.
If I say global warming, climate change, (insert whatever they are calling it this week here) alarmists are full of shit then I suddenly must like killing baby seals, chopping down trees, and think science is the devil's work. If I say I have planted trees, want to live in an off grid home made of old shipping containers, have extensively studied and taken classes in geology and meteorology, have donated money to Marine Mammal and ferret shelters, or like old bio-diesel cars, then I am an unwashed, hippie, tree hugging, liberal whack-job.
If the slopes get any more slippery, I will need motherfucking cleats on my motherfucking boots.
Also, who the hell let that "Straw man" in here?! Time to light a match.
Your way or the highway? Well apparently I don't have that choice since your highway is still under construction.
And this treatment of anyone with a differing view or opinion as an "Enemy" is getting more and more common.
Just because someone does not entirely agree with someone else on a single issue or such does not mean they hate you or want you dead... It just means they don't agree with you on said topic or issue... Well unless they actually say they hate you and want you dead. *chuckles*
That is why I like to say, "People are entitled to their opinions, even when they are wrong." Because people ARE entitled to their opinions, it is only when they try to force their opinions as the truth upon others that the problems really pop up.
Massive assumptions are made, hypocrisy all over the place, double standards, conclusions are jumped to, baseless or inaccurate comparisons between entirely different things are made, and broad generalizations are thrown left and right; All in the hopes it will somehow "WIN" at an argument, when all it does is just create more problems and furthers the ever growing divide. A person will never win hearts and minds from the "opposition" if they are constantly trying to beat "the other side" into the ground with a "My way, or else!" attitude. Even then, people will still have differing opinions. That is when one needs to agree to disagree, or find a middle ground.
If people didn't have opinions, we would live in a very grey world with nothing interesting to talk about.
This has a lot to do with politics, media influence, people imposing their morals upon others, and society in general nowadays... Personally I'm talking form an American standpoint where we have a legal freedom of speech, even if it may hurt feelings, or be considered an unpopular opinion.
Seriously, what happened to being able to having a discussion or debate with someone without it devolving into a shouting match where opinions are treated as facts? More and more it seems discussions are ending up in the "I'm right and you are wrong", or "If you don't agree with me entirely then obviously you are against me and agree with: them, they, the enemy."
It all seems to be a part of the massive divide I have seen growing in all aspects of life where if you are not part of one extreme then you must, automatically, be part of "the other" or "opposing" extreme.
I constantly see this online, on all sides of the media, and in conversations that often started off casual and friendly.
For example these are some of my personal experiences:

The real world problems facing "Solar Roadways"
General | Posted 11 years agoSo it seems that an idea that has been around since the 1960s is finally getting some realization in the real world.
http://www.solarroadways.com/intro.shtml
Here is where I hit everyone with a dose of reality:
First off this is an absolutely amazing idea! Much like how people that know me have heard me talk about how Southern California could have had an efficient, quiet, high-speed monorail bought and paid for by private interests (think Disney) wayyy back in the 60s and 70s without a single taxpayer dollar being spent to build it and was shot down by greedy and scared railroad and automotive tycoons and companies...
Why did the monorail not happen even though it would not have cost a taxpayer a single cent?
Plain, old, ugly, GREED.
Like the monorail in SoCal (and many other revolutionary ideas) this solar roadway would never happen in America on a large scale. Too many greedy people in the way of progress. See the two page links below:
http://micechat.com/blogs/samland/1.....ghway-sky.html
http://www.monorails.org/tMspages/LA1963.html
But I digress... So at the moment this solar roadway is a wonderful idea, but still in infancy and just not realistic in most of the world's economic situations or usage.
Also they are spewing a lot of sensationalist bullshit and buzzwords to get money, they say it will cut emissions by some magical amount even though they have not done ANY large scale real world testing, while at the same time do not mention the process involved with making each tile, and the resources involved behind it... If there is plastic involved (recycled or new) it needs petroleum and dangerous chemicals, if there is glass involved it needs massive amounts of heat and very specific types of sand from natural sources, if there is metal involved it needs mining and strip mining and chemicals and pollution galore. Solar panels don't grow on trees. There would also be the problem of rubber residue and who knows what else and them needing a more intense cleaning than just running a street sweeper over them to keep them efficient... I have yet to see them run a thousand fully loaded semi-trucks and big-rigs over it every day for a decade. It is a great "idea" one that has been around since the imagineers of the 1960s, but is more or less a "utopian" idea that isn't very realistic in the current financial and political climate in most the world.
I just don't see this happening in America where bridges are falling into the water and potholes are big enough to go swimming in and most of the road maintenance technology has remained unchanged since the 1950s... Especially in a country that only gives government contracts to the lowest bidders and people that make war... Yeah, how efficient and reliable is a solar roadway going to be when it is made by a company in China, with slave labor?
I can see it working with some tweaking, like instead of areas where cars will always be such as the road itself or parking spaces that will be blocked most the day, they put it as the shoulders of the road, or only in the parts of a parking lot where cars will not be sitting for extended periods, or places at airports that do not see airplane or much vehicle traffic.
If the government of America really cared about "The Future" and infrastructure... We would have high-speed monorails with power/communication conduits, hydrogen powered cars, cheap clean diesel, solar roofing tiles on every house, rain collectors, and automatic blowjob machines on every street corner.
I can guarantee you that "the powers that be" *Ahem*: big oil and big power and big automotive companies will make sure this never sees "the light of day" on a mass scale, unless they can find a way to make insane amounts of money off it... Again, at least not in America, outside of private funding... Seriously, $1,000,000 for a single little parking lot?
Since America is mainly a Crony Capitalism it would likely never get D.O.T. (government) approval for use on/as public roads because of all the big money fingers controlling their government puppets.
In all honesty, I think they should be pitching this idea to the United Arab Emerites and the prince of Dubai as that is the only place I can think of that would jump on this idea and has the money and the future planning set up for such ideas.
Again a wonderful and Utopian idea, but just not realistic at the moment... At least not in the greed centered U.S.A.

Mileage toll tax in Cali, because cars are TOO efficient.
General | Posted 11 years agoBecause people seem to avoid politics and such like the plague, I'm going to put this here for the few of you that actually care what is going on beyond your computer screen.
So, yet another reason why I want to leave the envirotard mecca.... Is the Cali government is testing ways to tax cars based on mileage to make up for the lost revenue on highly taxed gasoline.
Let me try to simplify it a bit more: California gas is usually $1-$2 higher per gallon than most other states in the U.S.A.... (even though California is one of the big gas producing states, we get no credit at the pump like Texas or Alaska do) This is done to try and force people to be more "environmentally friendly" by driving more efficient vehicles. Well those same political envirotards now cannot understand why they are not getting the kind of money they used to when everyone was driving SUVs, so they think, on top of all this other stuff that they should tax people per mile driven, EVEN IF THEY ARE DRIVING ELECTRIC OR BIO-DIESEL CARS!!!!
Basically it is a tax for NOT USING ENOUGH GAS! LOfuckinL WTF?!?!
Yes that is right... On top of the gas tax, on top of the cal-trans tax, on top of all the registration tax, they now want to add a mileage tax!
And to add insult to injury, the federal government is also thinking of allowing states to Toll interstate travel and commerce in the "GROW AMERICA ACT", because they are too dumb to stop overspending on supposed "Defense" and corruption to help keep America's head above water.
I mean I love America, but as citizens we really need to go all Donald TRUMP on our entire Government and yell "YOU'RE FIRED!"

Hitler is dead... I mean Fred Phelps is croaked! Woot!
General | Posted 11 years agoJust saw in a news article that that crazy inbred Westboro Baptist leader that came up with "God hates fags" and "Thank god for dead American soldiers" that would fucking protest peoples funerals, gay or not.
Let us hope the rest of his crazy ilk die off or disperse.
Now we just gotta hope for gay hating Putin and all those leaders in Uganda to croak off.
I hope a bunch of drag queens and boy toys protest Phelps funeral.
Ding dong the witch is dead!

Yay! Car parts!
General | Posted 12 years agoI finally got a sweet deal on all the seals and such I need to work on fixing the blown out gaskets for the entire upper cylinder heads and valve covers on the VW.
Had to track down an old German buddy, I used to play Carmageddeon with online in the early 2000s, to get me a few updated parts for cheap you can usually only get from a dealer at a massive mark up to hopefully keep whatever the fuck happened with the bullshit emissions system from blowing out all the new seals I have to put on... Yeah, save the environment by blowing out oil seals and making oil leak everywhere, morons.
This car has the most complicated PCV system I have ever seen in a car. In just about every other car out there, new and old, the PCV is a single little check valve on the damn valve covers that costs about $5 and can be replaced in all of 3 minutes and will fix nearly all emissions and rough idle problems... On this car?... Oh hell no, it consists of no less than 3 electronic parts, 2-3 vacuum parts, at least 10 feet worth of molded (fuggin brittle shit plastic) and rubber tubing, A suction pump, a check valve that is known for breaking (had to get one of the better ones off a newer A6 Audi, including the spider hose) and tons of time and money that is one of the sole reasons I want a car from the 70s or older again.
And it so happens one of my Filipino extended family members worked on late 90s water-cooled VWs before moving to the US and would be glad to help. So friggin' awesomesauce there, a whole lot better than me bumble-fucking around alone under the hood.
At this point I'm honestly thinking of replacing the head gaskets, just for the hell of it, so I don't have anything else to surprise me for another 100,000 miles.
Already cleaned out the EGR valves and annoying kombi-valves... Eeesh... The more I work on modern cars, the less complicated they seem, but the more I want to go back to fixing everything with two screwdrivers, an adjustable wrench, pliers, and a hammer.

I've said it before and no one seems to notice. Well, because of inactivity, it finally happened. Big telecom companies in the USA can now completely block access to any websites they want to. Can now kill start-ups before they ever get a chance to get big by throttling or outright blocking access to anyone that doesn't "Pay to Play," so to speak.
Make an app or service to "compete" with someone else, or the company hosting you? Bye bye, enjoy the darkness. Have a website with something someone thinks is morally questionable to them like, oh, anthropomorphic animals playing "hide the boner?" Bye bye, enjoy the no boner hiding.
It is not as easy as just "getting a different provider" as most of the big telecom companies all have local monopolies and strangleholds all over the USA making it hard, if not impossible, to switch to a "competitor." People will not leave in droves because THEY CANNOT! Do you really want to go from 50mbps FIOS or AT&T or fiber optic to 1.5mbps and slower limited sat or dsl with some spotty company?
You may think it is hard to run a website now, wait till the "access fees" and "speed fees" start showing up.
I recommend you not get any sort of "contract" service without editing that contract to say you want a fully "Uncensored" internet.
AMERICA... Where taking a giant step BACKWARDS is good as long as profit is involved... Big business motto: "Fuck the first amendment and all the rest, except for the ones that make us money of course!"
Spread this like wildfire before it is too late.

Ferretsona Meme thinggy... Cuz... Stuff! Dook!
General | Posted 12 years agoWhat made you choose the species of your main ferretsona?
-Ferret just seemed to fit. I am hyper like a ferret and like shiny things and meat! Om nom! Boing!
How did you come up with the name for your ferretsona?
-It was a mix of things. First off I like mechanical things and cars, and always thought Axel was a cool name, so I just went with "Axle" as a first name like the shafty car part.. That and innuendos aplenty, axle, shaft, rod, differential transfer case... Giggitty! And Furret came around as a last name for Axle from a school friend that had pet ferrets and always called them "furrets" instead, and at a sleepover once said I made ferret noises in my sleep.
Is your ferretsona just like you, or how you want to be?
-Pretty much the same, save for the ferret being a total man slut in Roleplay, and he can get away with not wearing pants!
Does your ferretsona have the same personality you have?
-Yup... Blunt and directly to the point in most cases, not one for small talk, easily distracted, short term memory problem, decently intelligent, a bit picky, sexually dominant, and hyper and horny as all fuck-it-all. *tailpoofs and bounces around then humps random things*
Does your ferretsona have the same dislikes and likes as you do?
-Pretty much.
Does your ferretsona look like you at all?
-Ah no... He's a ferret, I'm a human. The only thing in common is brown eyes and brown hair, certain clothing choices (bulging thong and leather straps and bracelets and an ankh necklace or collar.) And he can often be seen wearing sun glasses.
Is your ferretsona the same gender as you, if not why?
-Yup. 100% male.
Do you have more then one main ferretsona?
-Nope. Well... I had a mute, pg-13-ish rated, more feral styled ferret character, with a love of mechanical things and tinkering, but no one wanted to role play with a mute character.
Do you have a back story for your ferretsona, if so does it have anything to do with your own history?
-Yes, an absolutely MASSIVE back story dating back to the late 90s when I first came up with the whole ferret thing... Strangely though, in role play everyone seems more interested in the sex only part... Oh well, still fun! And nope, nothing to do with real life history other than a fascination with weapons and mechanical things and underwear and leather.
Is your ferretsona mated, if so is it to your real life significant other?
-Nope, he stays single in the role play world because most people have way too many problems separating real life from fantasy, that and because them furries love their online drama.
Is there something special about your ferretsona that you think sets them apart from others?
-Errm... He's a decently well hung (for his size), part feral (can run on all fours), sometimes toony, six foot tall/long ferret with some under the surface fire dragon traits like a high body temperature, freakishly long tongue, and ability to produce copious amounts of spoo!
Do you have much art of your main ferretsona/s?
-I have some, but it is hard finding artists that can draw ferrety proportions or in slightly toony styles, but when I do find said artists, I usually try to commission the holy living crap out of them. *throws money at!*
Would you ever consider parting with your main ferretsona, if so why?
-FUCK NO! Is a perfect fit.
If you suit, do you have a suit of your main ferretsona?
-Nope... But if I could ever find someone to make a long torso ferret suit, and could justify the cost, I would do so in a split second.
Have you ever role played with your main ferretsona, or do you prefer not to?
-ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME. That's the reason he came about in the first place other than how ferrety I may act in the real world. Though it is getting harder and harder to find people with decent role playing skills, or even a grasp on the English language lately.
Do you consider your main ferretsona to be a part of you in any way?
-Well duh... I came up with him so, yes!
Any other questions people would like to add to this, ask away! ^_^
-Ferret just seemed to fit. I am hyper like a ferret and like shiny things and meat! Om nom! Boing!

-Nope. Well... I had a mute, pg-13-ish rated, more feral styled ferret character, with a love of mechanical things and tinkering, but no one wanted to role play with a mute character.
Do you have a back story for your ferretsona, if so does it have anything to do with your own history?
-Yes, an absolutely MASSIVE back story dating back to the late 90s when I first came up with the whole ferret thing... Strangely though, in role play everyone seems more interested in the sex only part... Oh well, still fun! And nope, nothing to do with real life history other than a fascination with weapons and mechanical things and underwear and leather.
Is your ferretsona mated, if so is it to your real life significant other?
-Nope, he stays single in the role play world because most people have way too many problems separating real life from fantasy, that and because them furries love their online drama.
Is there something special about your ferretsona that you think sets them apart from others?
-Errm... He's a decently well hung (for his size), part feral (can run on all fours), sometimes toony, six foot tall/long ferret with some under the surface fire dragon traits like a high body temperature, freakishly long tongue, and ability to produce copious amounts of spoo!
Do you have much art of your main ferretsona/s?
-I have some, but it is hard finding artists that can draw ferrety proportions or in slightly toony styles, but when I do find said artists, I usually try to commission the holy living crap out of them. *throws money at!*
Would you ever consider parting with your main ferretsona, if so why?
-FUCK NO! Is a perfect fit.
If you suit, do you have a suit of your main ferretsona?
-Nope... But if I could ever find someone to make a long torso ferret suit, and could justify the cost, I would do so in a split second.
Have you ever role played with your main ferretsona, or do you prefer not to?
-ALL THE FREAKIN' TIME. That's the reason he came about in the first place other than how ferrety I may act in the real world. Though it is getting harder and harder to find people with decent role playing skills, or even a grasp on the English language lately.
Do you consider your main ferretsona to be a part of you in any way?
-Well duh... I came up with him so, yes!
Any other questions people would like to add to this, ask away! ^_^
My Little Porny Err... Pony... Friendship is tragic.
General | Posted 12 years agoOkay sooo... Yeah... MLP...
Forced myself to watch a few episodes, and friggin' Powerpuff Girls is less girly than this show.
I admit I am a little biased as I remember the original Little Ponys from the 80s along with care bears and shit like that and once I got out of my simplistic childhood "pretty moving colors phase" I hated those shows.
Unfortunately, the new one... I don't see the attraction. It had a few humorous bits and I actually wouldn't hate it too much if I watched a few more episodes. Though it is so freaking sweet it makes my teeth hurt, and so girly my balls shrink.
The only characters I liked were the little male dragon named Spike and the only main bad guy "Discord" voiced by John De Lancie, but that's just because I like John De Lancie and the only real reason I watched a few episodes in the first place. Friggin' "Q"
If Discord showed up in more episodes I'd likely watch it more. Again, friggin' "Q"
Sorry, I will never be a "Brony" Maybe a Dicord-y. He's much more awesome.

The problem with User ratings systems.
General | Posted 12 years agoA little pet peeve of mine is people that don't understand how ratings go for things like products or books or games and such. Ratings systems like: Numerical Star systems, out of 10, out of 50, out of 100, and what have you.
People have a habit of rating something at 100% while at the same time pointing out their gripes with said "perfect" thing(s). It causes me to roll my eyes so hard I go all walleyed for a bit. @_@
One does not rate something 5 out of 5 stars, 10/10, 50/50, 100/100 and then go on to say what they "Didn't" like about said "perfect" thing or service. If a person has a gripe about something, it is no longer a 100% thing. One should not say, "I give it a 10 out of 10... BUUUUUUUT..." there are no buts in a "perfect" score, unless it is a score based off of Butts.
One interesting thing I have seen is the habit of many Americans to either rate something as perfect or horrible without any middle ground like "okay" or "Meh" or people viewing a middle ground response as somehow a "bad" review.

Huffington Post and Fox News for the Lawls.
General | Posted 12 years agoI love reading comments sections in biased news media and youtube videos. Fox news= Hilarious, Huffington Post= hilarious. It is especially entertaining for those of us not strictly affiliated with the two party system in America (libertarians, Independents, undecided, free thinkers, constitutionalists, and so on). Seeing the amount of people that blame one side or the other over stories and issues that have nothing to do with politics to begin with is so very entertaining! I have seen gun control rants go on for hundreds of comments in stories about an adorable kitten picture, or blaming the economy on Bush and Obama in a story about gay pride parades. What is even more fun is when someone proves a fan-boy of either the red or the blue wrong with unbiased facts and statistics, how they launch into typo ridden anger posts about morals and Jeebus on the right, and passive-aggressive Jewish mother guilt tripping assumptions on the left side. On both sides, if anyone makes a middle ground or moderate post, their heads seem to explode as they cannot understand how both sides could ever have a middle ground or both have some good ideas.
Mmm… Smells like a fresh cup of closed minded political agenda in the mornings. ^_^
Is it weird to love politics and hate politics at the same time?

XBone Vs PS4 Vs PC.
General | Posted 12 years agoUpgradable hardware and software, better graphics, game modding, ability to kill DRM, emulators, backwards compatibility, internet and porn, controller support along with keyboard and moose...
PC wins.
End of debate.

A simple way to FIX Americas economy.
General | Posted 12 years agoI would love to see what happens if we did like some European countries, and imposed a limit on business CEO and OWNER pay to that of 15-30 times the average employee...
Usually what happens then is that they increase their workers pay to living wage or above because, guess what? CEOs and OWNERs of companies LOVE money, so paying people more money gets the big wigs more money, there you go.
Any money made over that 15-30x profit could be put into things like education and healthcare, possibly even reducing violence rates and homelessness as a side effect.
People would have more money to spend and start their own businesses, the middle class would get stronger once more, college and healthcare would be free or very affordable, you wouldn't have to work 2-3 low paying jobs to barely afford rent and food, more people would vacation again, all around stress levels would be down.

A little note to North Korea... Ahem... Dear North Korea:
General | Posted 12 years agoThey seem to think wagging their tiny Korean penis missles left over from the 1960s is going to make the U.S.A. do anything other than fall over laughing. We killed all the other boogeymen and our massive military industrial complex is just itching to find a new boogeyman to get into yet ANOTHER war. Be glad you don't have oil or we would already be there. So I say to Kim Dong Tinyfuckin Ill, while he is busy BRO-fronting at the #
Dear North Korea,
Do not tickle sleeping dragons, for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup!

Hope PROPOSITION 8 and DOMA get shot down in a firey death!
General | Posted 12 years agoThis week is when Proposition 8 - The law that was POLITICALLY FUNDED by tax exempt Mormons and Catholic churches... And DOMA: The federal law passed by homophobic and closeted politicians to limit marriage to only straight people... Now gets to go to the highest court in the land and be shot down ONCE AND FOR ALL...
Here is hoping us gays can get FEDERALLY recognized marriage without any more friggin' delays.
On a side note... Make sure to contact the IRS and let them know that Catholic and Mormon churches need to be taxed now that they have become politically influential through money dontaions to political campaigns.

CISPA is back. Say bye to ANY internet privacy and freedom!
General | Posted 13 years agoI know everyone is busy running off to other art sites and such but maybe be aware of things like this for a moment or two...
For those of you who like using the internet for things like: internet research, unbiased study on other cultures and countries, porn, and so on...
The US congress is trying again to limit and control the world wide web once again, hoping to sneak in under the media radar this time.
http://act.demandprogress.org/letter/cispa_is_back/?rd=1&t=1&referring_akid=2004.632741.RHggKX
Here is a cut and paste from the above site for those that don't like clicking things:
"CISPA is back.
Last year, our collective efforts helped put a stop to one of the gravest threats to online privacy and internet freedom we have ever seen -- The Cyber Intelligence Sharing and Protection Act.
The bill grants companies unprecedented power to obtain users' personal information (such as from private communications) and to disclose that data to the government without a warrant -- including sending data to the National Security Agency.
This week, CISPA was reintroduced in the House of Representatives.
And the new bill has the very same dangerous problems as last year's version. CISPA 2.0 would grant immunity to private companies who share your data with other companies, private agencies, and the government.
And CISPA permits the use of your personal data for reasons completely unrelated to cybersecurity.
Now, as before, we cannot sacrifice our hard-won liberties and privacy rights in the pursuit of a misguided and overbroad conception of "security."
