Quick Thoughts
You never know how stupid someone could possibly be until you've heard them call technical support. All the stories are true, the general public is stupider than anyone ever imagined.

Inductive Reasoning
There are over 6 billion people on the earth at any given moment from this day forward. From the past we can see that millions of people will die due to the actions of people that number far less than their own. The total body count for military deaths in the First World War ranged in the 8.5 millions.
If (give or take) 400 people are responsible for the war occurring, prolonging, getting worse, or causing more death during this period in time than it is safe to say that the less people on the earth, the smaller the death tolls with range.
When the pro-choice and life arguments start their ranges arguments from the right to choose, to "it is a human being = murder." If 400 people cause catastrophic wars that reduce the population of entire nations by an extra 3% by the end of the year it is ok to carry this in a smaller form. By reducing the population in the same manner to ‘serve a nation’ or ‘increasing peace’ will serve as a similar reasoning to reduce the number of family members.
Two reasons will conclude this argument. Four hundred people are the cause for catastrophic murder or it is ok to follow the leaders lead and serve your family to ‘keep the peace.’

The Common Good
So here is the deal. We only have a little time on the earth, some less than others. We need something to fulfill that time with whatever we please; at least, that’s what I gather from everyone running around with plans for this and that. Some go to school and become rich; others get rich off of moral decay. Some get rich using moral decay.
My questions are relatively…they’re something I just don’t know what. What are we doing this for? If we don’t know what, why bother anyone with your instructions. Sure it’s easy to question what couldn’t be answered, but I think that’s my point here. When the debates come down to it, what you are arguing when the core question of ‘Why?’ still isn’t being answered. You could say anything in the world and no one could answer that question and be correct except you. To this I learn that that no one has the right answer but you. It’s my worst nightmare, everyone is right.
So you do what you please, now what? The common goal is that everyone wants to do something to get happy. Even those that help someone else out do it for a deeper selfish reason to satisfy a desire to help someone of importance to them. If this wasn’t true we’d be helping everyone and not just close friends or relatives. Some might argue convenience on that one but I still see the bias in one’s personal life from the next.
True integration of culture will only occur when there is no culture to integrate, as cultures naturally clash. We still try for the common ‘good.’ When all we end up doing is hurting another form of life on the same planet. “It’s a vicious cycle” has taken on a new meaning as I consider these arguments.
The common good can be used to get a large group what they want, as they have shared interests due to similar environments and needs. The common good is a mob in its own right, as it has no motivating intentions but to please that group. Trading has created a larger common good to satiate more desires throughout the world. Strangely, this is all done with selfish intentions as little care is ever put into the miniscule pieces of their plan such as a dog of a Northern European country having a few extra things to do or eat because of a larger population and work force from the plant that was put to create cheaper automobiles.
This isn’t an indication that one should care about this sort of thing, only that they can’t. If you can’t grasp every miniscule aspect of a plan and its effect how could you grasp every result that could be “destructive” for something else. This is the common good or the ignored destruction?
Without this proof we can only establish that you did what you did selfishly to create what you really wanted. It had more desirable effects for the common man of your area and maybe those of other areas. You didn’t do it for them, you did it for yourself.

Your Boring Me
This is in response to a recent post of my own.
http://www.ubersite.com/cgi-bin/message_get.cgi?message=1118377297136810339
This wasn't written to bullshit some insults around and make someone cry, however, if this were to occur I offer no apologies. Simply responding to the worthless comments of this website that my post seems to have captured. Not a bad variety at that. I'm sure we have a little bit of every worthlessness in this post's comments.
I don't care so much that my post sucks and its being noticed, but why do you fucking idiots always leave the dumbest, most reflectively helpless remarks possible. Its as if your mirroring the worst post you can think of, in a single sentence, to mock the fact your actually trying to tell those around you how terrible the post your commenting on is.
Deidra, what the fuck does that mean? How about you use some fucking coherent words to describe a post you dislike, which happens to be on a site that solely exists because of TEXT and descriptive word usage. Fuck off with your -2
Cuberat, Nice fucking observation, how about you go off with your spy-glass and figure some other shit out like that the site i copied off of was my own and I did it to see what someone with half a fucking brain might think of my work. Take your idea of a good post and eat my ass cause unless your going to critique my post with some enthusiasm then I don't need your comment cluttering up my pages.
Xcuses, what a cunning pun for an even more cunning cunt. Hey, wow a cute little word usage that makes people chuckle when they read. Maybe if I put some thought into it I could waste my life just like you. That or at least get off the computer from reading a post that some guy put up to get an intellectual response from his thoughts, and not his grammar.
If you didn't read the post and decided to critique my shit based off of what it LOOKS LIKE then you might as well save yourself the trouble of a suicide note and just do it right the first time.
Sorry, couldn't help but bring up the suicide thing potatomanjack, you hit such a soft spot with your low angled insult at my use of a blog and desire to live. Even your thoughts on giving blow jobs seem to push my will to fight to the floor, and quietly molest what doesn't belong.
Chroniclysm, Thanks for the remark on what you've decided is of use to this web site, its people, and everything else that coexists with my post. Maybe you could go on Oprah and tell people what they should do after they fuck so no hard feelings are shared between the poor middle aged couple.
Security guard? What the fuck? Thats not even getting a response. I'm a programmer for NewGen technologies. Know what else? Thats a fucking lie since NOBODY FUCKING CARES WHAT I DO.
C1ndy, fuck off. I could care less about what the motherfucker looks like, or whether or not I've mixed up a cock in your mouth. Its all the same and once again, words aren't written to look pretty. Words are written to express an interest or thought. Don't agree with the thought? Fine, let me know. Don't like my spelling? Go back to a high school nd teach some fucking 10th graders if your so unimpressed with their English abilities.
Stevie, you get what you give. Fuck off.

Speak English
If you find yourself constantly wondering what you are doing discussing pointless matters with a friend, or previously interesting acquaintance, don't feel bad. Its not your fault, your friend just doesn't know how to speak English.
Conversation has several elements to fullfill an interest in those speaking. Most of these are hardly given a first glance before they're shunned as useless. The result: a bunch of a half-asses speaking half-assedly demanding more respect and money than most would be willing to pay for a steady job in Nasa. This is where I think old English dialect played an important, and hopefully model performance in the history of our local language.
You see, old English dialect wasn't created for convenience. It was used to mimics an ideal conversation with a friend or cohort. Interest in your partners life, feelings, news, etc; Concern for their well being, and finally discussion of shared subjects. Those who fell short of these useful, though repetitive, steps to a full conversation were considered to be brute. Seen as someone that couldn't create the semblance of a "proper" way to convey emotions and spell them out in a pleasant manner were treated with disrespect and/or completely ignored.
What many have failed to put together is that was done FOR A REASON. If you can't portray your own being as a individual with understandable dialect, proper use of the English language to display your current mood, and still keep in mind the basics of a decent conversation then you weren't even tolerated. This should, and hopefully hasn't altogether, change.
So here's the thing, learn to speak English in a manner that can be understood by 90% of your regions population or be quiet until you do understand. Until then, you will have no respect and nor should you demand any. If you don't understand the place around you, then stop and figure it out before you go blurting into a tenure of "Don't be given' me that shit!" from those that can't make sense of what the fuck your saying.
This particular part of the post is designated for roughly one or two types of people I could think of. Now, to discredit the rest.
Angry because you don't understand the operator on the phone? Can't read the guidelines for riding the subway? The directions on the back of an item designated specifically for an area you aren't from? TOUGH SHIT.
This country was created to take in your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free, The wretched refuse of your teeming shore, Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me, I lift my lamp beside the golden door! Interesting, no where in the quote does it say anything about accommodating foreign languages better than the native's! So while your sick ass is staying in the country collecting money tax free, do us all a favor and pick yourself up a copy of an English to Whatever-bullshit-country-your-from and figure out what everyone else around you is trying to say. Yeah, the economy benefits and the stocks increase, unfortunately so is my temper as I throw my patience to the ground and beat your foreign ass. Languages aren't that hard when you consider the benefit you pull from earning a currency far above your own.
Things like this make me glad that we're not a complete democracy, god forbid 50,000,000 Mexicans have control of a country worth 60% of the Earth's resources when they can't even keep their original country from plummeting sunbraro first into the Earth. Fascism might be a motherfucker, and technically what most are "against", but it has its benefits. This happens to be one of them.

Racism
This word is often used to describe a practical person. By practical I mean someone who can view the world around him and assess what is a usual occurrence, then base his future decisions off of what he has learned. In most cases of practicality it is considered a virtue to learn from what you see, hear, and feel. However, things fuzz when you consider millennia old feuds that draw people together only to separate a much larger region.
Consider a man you see each morning when you come to work. With each day he is doing one of several things at a certain time. No big deal; at 8 he drinks his coffee, at 8:15 he's going through some basic prep work like organizing last nights work or gathering utensils to do whatever it is he does. Maybe at around lunch time he gets up to Starbucks and orders 2 Tall expensive drinks and 3 biscottee. He eats and drinks with eloquence and before he finishes, always comments to the waiter that his mere was particularly delightful and he will most assuredly be attending the same place the following day. A smile and a generous tip later, he is back at his desk before his break is over and once again milling about his work. Within 2 hours he leaves, and places all his work in the proper area and goes home. Though he goes home early, the boss never comments publicly about it and he's been working there longer than you.
The following may be practically assessed:
So here we have the final point, if I see a group of blacks in my school slowly escalating the stairs, yelling obscenities, slouching in a chair, wearing jerseys, threatening the "crackers" nearby with a swift jab to the gut and a gang bang by him and his "cousins" then they will effectively be marked as that type of person. This still doesn't apply to racism until you consider the sheer mass of people that this applies to. Hell I don't care about the color of your skin, if your yellow and fall under the category of what I've just described then your as guilty as any of an effective stereotype.
This isn't an argument until I add the fact that each time I've brought this up to a particularly exultant figure, I get berated with words that don't necessarily apply to an observer like myself, but would suit more of a red neck hick with a 5th grade edumacation.
Then, for a brief moment I like to consider the people in more fortunate regions of the US (Orange county) where this type of person is less frequent. This is followed by a group of higher class individuals that defend something they have no experience with. They might as well be arguing the condition of the Moon for all they've been informed. Then, after considering that I throw it away cause they just don't know what the fuck they're talking about.
One last note I'd like to bring up. Ever notice why higher class areas are noted for being higher class? From what I've seen (4 states and 15 cities) the higher class always sticks to one type of people that, on average, resemble one of the indicated colors above. This is only noted because these areas lack one thing: niggers. They don't have any sorry looking jersey wearing, boom box blaring fruit cakes disturbing the neighborhood and claiming "territories" from which they base an operation of drug dealing, gun slinging, or an overall gathering of loiterers.
When you argue with this, as I'm sure a few may, consider that I never said any of these points of observations were even close to a 100% true. Nothing is even close to "always correct" and I acknowledge that. These are merely observations that happen to apply to what I've seen as a neutral perspective on the neighborhoods I've lived in. So please, when you do say anything, make sure its not something that would irritate you if you were to read it following a post you made about a highly debated point.

The following may be practically assessed:
- He is generous with his money and probably doesn't think much of it when contrasted to enjoying his life.
- He is thoughtful of others and will go at fairly noticeable lengths to make that point
- He enjoys life in the ways he was brought up to. (lets face it, nobody likes biscottee...Its just always there)
- He rewards himself in the ways he deems worthy. Leaving early is more important to him than staying for lunch if it means he gets to go home (...And see his family, wife, smoke a cigar?)
- Work is a necessary means of which he has obviously come to terms with. While not overly sociable, he isn't unfriendly and just wants to get his work done and leave.

How to not be a shitty worker
1. Ok, I'm not that old and I haven't worked a lot of jobs. However, I'm pretty keen when it comes to things that irritate the shit out fo me and the other 50% of the population (that half with the brain) happen notice on a regular basis. There's a certain way to view things that, though you may not know how, let you do things on the job fairly pain free, for you and the rest of the world
2. Never put your hands in your pockets. This shows you are bored and though you are capable of completeing many a task, you chose not to. This also appears that you are not interested in doing your job. Your stance should always be brisk and at the ready when you are not busy
3. Keep an eye out for what the people in your work area are doing. If you see Joe wiping down the pots after he finishes a few meals then go ahead and take the initiative and do so even though no one specifically instructed you do it.
4. This gets its own number because it cannot be stressed enough. ALWAYS take the initiative to do something, even if you are not sure it should be done. It is far less of a problem that you are doing somebody else's job rather than doing no one's job.
5. Though smiles are not required for every job, never get an attitude with someone else even if you don't like what they're saying. Hell, even if the person is spitting sarcastic remarks unjustified, don't get an attitude. This sort of leads to my next point.
6. Work places are like court rooms. Its always better to have proof and if your both caught in the act of whatever it is your doing with someone else (usually its not a good thing to be caught doing anything.) Its better to be found being calmly assertive about whatever your argument with your co-worker.
7. If you are trying to point out another co-workers misplaced ideas of what it is to be an "employee" don't ever point it out in an instructive manner to your boss. The last thing he wants is a shmuck telling him what's going on his shift in his area like he doesn't already know it. If you want to be a knark and get someone fired, do it by placing a question or curiosity. Even if you are reprimanded for wondering what isn't your business, at least you didn't get bitched for being an ass-pirate standing too high on his own pedestals.
8. Don't ever make a weak excuse. Things the boss here's 46 times a day don't flash well in his mind when he thinks of you again. If you're actually late because of traffic and there's somehow nothing you could have done about it then try and put it to him without a response that rings of "if you give me shit about my reason I'm going to throw a hissy fit and whine about how there's nothing I could have done, though taking twenty minutes to flirt with the gas station attendant could have been delayed till the following day...When I don't work
9. Finally, mostly cause I'm tired of writing this, have some respect for yourself. Don't spend 30 minutes crying and moaning about how sorry or upset you were that you didn't bring your full uniform with you to work every time it happens. Its better to lay it down evenly and without trying to make yourself look like a victim. If it bothers him enough to fire you then your better off, 'cause your bullshitting ass shouldn't have tried to get a job at a place that requires 33 different items to wear each day of the week in the first place.
