I Have No Idea Anymore

Here's my list of things I see going on that I don't approve of:

-The American dollar is still weak.
I miss being able to go to Canada and buy whatever I want to find that I still had a huge stack of cash in my pocket. These days you can't go to Montreal for less than $500 in a weekend, unless you're a penny pincher.

- People aren't afraid of the US as much as they should be.
I am a huge fan of displaying your power. If you have it, show it.

- Reality TV BLOWS.
I don't even know how to elaborate on that, it's just a waste of air time.

- Why is wearing pants around your knees cool now?
I mostly blame my generation of "thugs" for that, but seriously, stop it.

- Racism, Affirmative Action...
I won't even comment on that one really, but still garbage.

- People keep calling us "Imperialistic Americans".
Fine, you want to call us Imperialistic Americans? I think we should act like it. My first order of business would be to build a nice summer house somewhere on the Persian Gulf.

- Alternative Energy
My car apparently gets 9 miles a gallon and I smile about that but we do need something else because I'm tired of filling the tank.

- Kids are growing up to be panzys.
I don't know if parents just stopped laying down a good whipping or what but why do I ref games where hitting is encouraged and kids are still afraid to do it? Remember, those same kids will be the future protectors of this awesome land some day but they'll be afraid of Styrofoam swords and Nerf guns.

- Music
I am so tired of listening to songs about how much weed people smoke or how many guns they have. I'll tolerate anything from the late 50's to about mid 90's. Even the occasional fiddle or Glen Miller songs are alright.

Agree, disagree. Whatever.


Circular reasoning is not allowed.

You could work more, make more money, and still have a fat wad in Montreal.
You could work on alternative energy projects, maybe be the next Tesla or Edison.
Kids learn a lot about fear from watching TV. Without it, they would jhave a lot less stress, smoke less weed, and wouldn't know that wearing your pants like ankle warmers is the rage.

I say if you have a lot of guns, sing about it. Display your power.

Clarification: If you have guns for normal purposes, fine. If you have one to walk around with your pants hanging low, your hat on crooked and a gun in your belt to look "gangster", well then that's another issue.

Keep up the good work. You remind me a lot of my oldest son in attitude, and I respect his attitude and opinions immensely. After all, he had a great father.

24 months ago: Good deal. Feel free to show me the error of my ways when need be, also. We may be on the same side of the fence, but we gotta help keep each other intellectually honest too. Can't just go around agreeing with each other and back-slapping each other silly. I hope I wasn't being a total prick with that barb. It's not really my style.

Back-slapping: One of the issues in today's society of "everybody wins". Please, if you think you can enlighten me on something; just do it.

I tend to be a very terse and cynical person, I need a good barb or verbal whipping to keep me in check every now and again. I'll be the first to admit that.

24 months ago: Reality TV: Something people watch to fulfill their own fantasies through some other person. 2. A load of garbage, shows including: Cops, Flavor of Love, I love money, etc.

I hate reality shows... Load of lies and bull hockey. And "Thugs" need to grow up, it's all a little act to show how "cool" they are. Pull your pants up, sonny, it's called "underwear" for a reason.

Hehe, I'm dead tired and trying to be logical... It's insane I tellz ya.
