Observing

i heard on some radio station today at work some guy telling people to read some book because it told everyone what signs to look for warning jesus' return and no it wasn't the bible. he said all christians must read this book. right after that he attacked hillary clinton on her plan on getting out of the war. well, obviously this guy is a major neo-conservative, he talked about jesus coming and then mocked a senator on not liking the war, who happens to be hillary. maybe i'm stereo-typing but it sure seems that way to me. i don't give a shit about hillary or barack but you can certainly tell a conservative when they go straight for clinton. anyway, right before his attack he plays a snippet of a queen song. i just found that funny. i maybe stereo-typing again but, i'm sure this dude hates fags.

also, this guy at work, who happens to be racist but only racist against non-black/non-white people, told another employee that people say he's spoiled but he's not. i figured out he meant because his parents are rich because he then said all he asked for for christmas was a playstation 3 and a game. i asked, "you asked for a $600 gift and you don't think you're spoiled?" he replied, "it was only like $299." i said, "no a playstation 3 is more like $400 to $700." he said, "well yeah i guess with a game and everything." but that's not the best part, what he got for christmas was the ps3 a game and a 32" lcd tv at the least. the fact that he didn't even know how much his parents spent on him and the fact that he denied any claim that he was spoiled, help prove he is spoiled. there's more but i'm tired and don't care.

i've never understood why people are either ignorant of or embarrassed of being spoiled. i used to be a spoiled brat. but i might have taken it a little too far acknowledging it, now that i can look back on it objectively. now i live in a trailer and pay for my own shit and am regularly broke as the proverbial joke.

i prefer being spoiled. but i'll take what I've got going now, too.

Those who are spoiled usually have no idea they are spoiled. THey are brought up with a certain amount of comfort and they assume everyone has that same amount. Unless the parents try to open their eyes to the reality of life, they have little hope of ever knowing how the other 9/10ths live. And then if they actually have some kind of self awareness and see their "spoildness", its hard to break free from it. So do we condemn them for this? Or see it as a mental sickness?

Rich kids piss me off, but Im not sure who to dislike more, them or their idiot parents.

And on the topic of right wing radio personalities, They are as much entertainment as speakers of facts. Saying what needs to be said to bring more listeners, either extreme right to agree with them or extreme left to burn with rage at them. The bible speaks about not letting pure water and sewage fall from the same hole (mouth). Those who practice hate speech and then try to show the genuine love of God are only showing themselves as the shit talkers they truly are.

Not all of us hate gay people. I only hate Tom Cruise. Im not sure that counts.

i am aware that i am spoiled i think. i believe that it stems mostly from being the only child. i plan to one day not be spoiled, if that counts for anything. i don't think i'm a brat, though? i hope not.

wait are you talking new mercedes on your 16th birthday spoiled or new toyota on your 16th birthday spoiled? because i am the latter.
