Random Stuff 17

  Something that bugs me is when people read a fortune cookie and then go on and on about how what it says is not a prediction, or when they suggest what it says is going to be the future.

  Here's a little FYI: IT'S NOT TRYING TO TELL THE FUTURE!!!.

  Look up the word "fortune".  If you don't want to go through the trouble, then just use your common sense and think about the word.  A fortune in gold.  That was fortunate.  It cost a fortune.  What part of those indicate any prediction of the future?

  Granted, a fortune CAN be predicted, but prediction is not the point.


  There's finally a website focusing on what the radical Islamists are saying.

TheirOwnWords.com

  It's almost as if most people either don't know or don't believe that they want everyone dead who does not share their beliefs and that they want the entire world to be an Islamic (by their interpretation) state.

  I'm glad there's finally a source that collects and features the words from their own mouths.  These are things that the mainstream SHOULD be showing us.


  There are a lot of different concepts of good and evil, angels and demons, and stuff like that.  I have a new concept.

  I don't really want to call them angels, since angels are effectively robots, minus the electrical stuff and not metal, but there are beings of pure good, and they create only.  Demons are beings of pure evil, who only destroy, namely that which was created by good.

  The good wanted them to stop, but being pure good, they were unable to actually fight.  And while demons were all about destruction, they still had no power to destroy pure good.  The two sides were incapable of destroying each other.

  The side of good understood that only something containing evil could fight evil, but needed to also contain good, in order to, well, not be just another demon.  So, they create humans.

  It was only through free will could both good and evil reside together within a single creation, but it also meant that what they created could possibly turn on them.  The physicality humans aided in leaning them generally towards good, since it was most likely to ensure their survival, so their creation was a palatable risk.

  And so began the human race and the fight between good and evil.

  Whatcha' think?

  Actually, logic blows it all to hell, since creation and destruction occur simultaneously.  Oh, well.


  I'm still amazed by so many people's dogged, stubborn refusal to truly acknowledge the difference between legal and illegal immigrants.  It's especially bad when those people don't acknowledge it when talking about what is said by people who have expressly differentiated.

  Even when you tell them outright that there is a difference, and tell them about the difference, and it's like it flies right over their heads.  And then there's those really special people who will appear to acknowledge, by their own words, the difference for a sentence or two, and then just go right back completely ignoring it.

  I'm thumping your forehead... lots!  *thump*  *thump*  *thump*  *thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump thump*  Are you bleeding, yet?  I wouldn't want to draw blood.  *thump thump thump thump thump*


  Alec Baldwin.  The golden boy of the ever so compassionate Liberals.  The peace-lovers.  The people who want to make sure no one feels bad.

  I wonder if he'll include this in the book he intends to write about his custody battle.


  Hey I wanna tell you something, okay?

  And I want to leave a message for you right now cause again it's 10:30 here in New York on a Wednesday, and once again I've made an ass of myself trying to get to a phone to call you at a specific time.

  When the time comes for me to make the phone call, I stop whatever I'm doing and I go and I make that phone call at 11 o'clock at morning in New York and, if you don't pick up the phone, at 10 o'clock at night and you don't even have the god damned phone turned on.

  I want you to know something, okay? I'm tired of playing this game with you. I'm leaving this message with you to tell you, you have insulted me for the last time. You have insulted me.

  You don't have the brains or the decency as a human being.  I don't give a damn that you're 12 years old or 11 years old or that you're a child, or that your mother is a thoughtless pain in the ass who doesn't care about what you do as far as I'm concerned.

  You have humiliated me for the last time with this phone.  And when I come out there next week, I'm gonna fly out there for the day just to straighten you out on this issue.  I'm going to let you know just how disappointed in you I am and how angry I am with you that you've done this to me again.

  You've made me feel like shit, and you've made me feel like a fool over and over and over again, and this crap you pull on me with this god damned phone situation that you would never dream of doing to your mother, and you do it to me constantly and over and over again.

  I'm going to get on a plane, and I'm going to come out there for the day and I'm going to straighten your ass out when I see you, do you understand me?  I'm going to really make sure you get it, then I'm going to get on a plane, turn around and come home.

  So you better be ready Friday the 20th to meet with me so I can let you know just how I feel about what a rotten little pig you really are.  You are a rude, thoughtless little pig, okay?


  There's a couple of things that stand out to me, personally.  One is this bit:

"You've made me feel like shit, and you've made me feel like a fool over and over and over again..."

  What a poor little victim is he.  His little 11 or 12 (he apparently isn't sure which) year old daughter has mind control abilities and ruthlessly forced him to feel like shit and like a fool.  Or perhaps better to say, fool of shit.

  Be careful.  The military might develop an interest in this amazing power of hers.  She could be come a great weapon.


  But seriously, this is just another example of someone being ruled by their emotions.  Another victim mentality.  It's not her behavior that's really important.  It's all about how he feeeeeeeels.  That's what's important.  It's all about him.


  Someone please show me a Liberal who doesn't give a shit about their own feelings.  Please prove to me that such a creature actually does exist.


  The second point is the name-calling.  This is pretty typical, actually.  A Liberal resorting to name-calling.  Nothing new there.

  But this is a father calling his 11 or 12 year old daughter a pig, repeatedly.  A "rotten little pig" in one case.

  "You don't have the brains or the decency as a human being."

  "your mother is a thoughtless pain in the ass"


  Let's pause a moment to see what he has to say for himself.

Alec Baldwin Explains Himself on the Web

  "Although I have been told by numerous people not to worry too much, as all parents lose their patience with their kids, I am most saddened that this was released to the media because of what it does to a child,"

  Really, Alec?  You're worried about the public knowing does to a child?  It's the effect of the public knowing that concerns you?

  Not experiencing any concern about how your behavior will affect your child?


"I'm sorry, as everyone who knows me is aware, for losing my temper with my child.  I have been driven to the edge by parental alienation for many years now.  You have to go through this to understand.  (Although I hope you never do.)  I am sorry for what happened.  But I am equally sorry that a court order was violated, which had deliberately been put under seal in this case."

  Oh, my bad.  He's sorry for what happened.  ...  Could you be any more vague?  He's equally sorry a court order was violated.

  So a court order being violated ranks equal to you verbally abusing you own daughter?


  "In such public cases, your opponents attempt to take a picture of you on your worst day and insist that this is who you are as a person,"

  Don't care.  Completely irrelevant.


  "Outside the doors of divorce court, I have friends, I have respect from people I work with and I have a normal relationship with my daughter.  All of that is threatened whenever one enters a court room."

  He's got a normal relationship with his daughter?  That doesn't speak well of normal.  That's not normal to my experience.

  I can understand calling a child rude, if they were rude, though I'd say it would be much better to call what they did rude.  I can understand calling a child thoughtless, if they did something thoughtless, but call the action thoughtless.

  But please tell me, what is it, deep in side the core of your being, that drove you to call your daughter a pig?

  What element of normalcy leaves you without that filter?


  Take a moment, please to think about some things, and I say this to all people.

  You marry a person, and then later divorce.  Obviously you were not right for each other, but you held something as a priority above the prevention of that.

  You lacked the wisdom, self-knowledge, and knowledge of human nature to know that person was not right for you.

  You have a kid, who eventually repeatedly behaves in a manner or manners which you find strongly un appealing.

  You further lacked the parenting skills to raise a child who would behave as you prefer.

  You are a person who resorts to name-calling, and it's not something burned into you very being that you would exclude your own daughter from being subject to it.


  What is my point?  Look and care, deeply, about what kind of person you really are.  Look at what you do, and know that it speaks to what you are in your core.

  Even if you do something terrible only one time, and then feel bad about it, the fact that it happened that one time, tells you that it is in you.  You ARE that kind of person.  You may not be that kind of person often, but it's there, and what are you going to do about it?


  If, by some miracle, you haven't actually heard the recording, then you can hear it here, at YouTube.



  12-year-old beheads man for "betrayal" of Taliban leader

  I don't really have much to say on this.  Here's an article that says more about than I would have ever thought to say, and I don't like being a mimic, so I'll just let you read that.

The Real Story: Naming Our Enemies

  One of the reasons I don't have much to say is because it would be a repetition of stuff I've already said a number of times before.  This particular incident is just another log on the same fire.

  What will it take for more people to acknowledge and understand just what kind of people the Islamic extremists are?

  It's a 12 year-old boy cutting off the head of another human being while a crowd of adults cheer him on and shout "Allah akbar" (God is great).

  Why is it that I would have to say anything at all?


  I don't really have a opening for this, so I'll just jump right into it.

  You think we should have a fuel or product that costs less money...  I'm a Conservative, I'm all for saving money.

  You think we should have a fuel or product that produces less waste... I'm a Conservative, I'm all for not creating useless things and being wasteful.

  You think we should be more energy efficient... I'm a Conservative, you might as well be fondling my crotch.

  You want to actually do work to achieve something that is efficient, produces less waste, and cost less money...  You're giving me mental orgasms.

  You want to tell me we should do all this because if we don't we will destroy the planet?  Go fuck yourself.

  Their are plenty of excellent reasons to do what the "environmentalist" want to try to make you think they want.  Just think for a moment about why bullshit is their primary method.


  But for a little satire, this site has some decent stuff.  Evil Conservative Industries.


  Steak Out Our Future

  This is an amusing page regarding the U.N. conclusion that cow farts are the greatest contributor to global warming.  Among other things, it features genuine pictures of global warming campaigners eating meat.

  On a related topic, Wikipedia has a list of celebrities who endorsed the Got Milk? campaign, if that might interest you.


  And if anyone still gives any kind of shit about Saddam and WMD's, then you may be interested in What Did The Democrats Say About Iraq's WMD.


  Lastly, I'm currently working on a second compatibility quiz.  It will be significantly shorter, though a bit more complex.  Oddly, my scoring system is less complex.  I have one variable, instead of three.  I will also have a greater variety of possible outcomes.

  The results will be a grading system similar to what you had in school.  The highest possible score will be A+, and range down A, A-, and on down through B's, C's, D's, even though we never had D's in my schools.  After D- is a single F.

  I have my doubts that any person will get an F, but you know what?  I sure would like to see the person who would.

  I will also feature more images, most of them actually part of the test itself.  I intend to include some more videos, purely for entertainment value.  Basically, I'm trying to make it a more appealing test.
