Jericho: A whole bunch of reasons to just give up!
IWDC is two years old. Woo. Like you care. Hell, I barely care and I just forked out $25 to keep this joke going. At one point I hoped to make some money off this site - to bring some real content to the Internet, maybe a webzine - something people cared about. However, IWDC has been and will continue to be a place where I come out, whenever I damn well feel like it, and generally bitch and belly ache about whatever the hell I what to bitch and belly ache about. I refuse to allow our quality to be compromised.
And why should I care? If things in this country keep going the way they are, when the FCC is done with Radio, TV and Cable - you just know they will come after the Internet! Howard Stern puts out a show and it's gone from the air-waves. Sure, there might be some tape, but it's ephemeral. Our insulting musings are out here for as long as I keep them out here. I can't wait to find that I've gotten a $500k fine for doing what comes naturally to me - pissing people off. And who's going to protect my rights? The President? Ha! I'm waiting for a Constitutional Amendment to ban "The Seven Dirty Words"!
The Spammers just won't stop. You can't get to your email, too much Spam. I've had to set up rules on my home email - I've never had to do that before. So sad. I probably won't have to worry about the FCC, the Spammers will crush the Internet with too much email traffic long before a government agency has time to act. Do they really think that if they annoy us to death that we will buy their crap? Do they really think I would turn to an email from an unidentified stranger instead of talking to my doctor in matters concerning my penis? I only have one of those - I'd like to keep it around for a few years. Why the hell would I buy some unknown product and use that on my second favorite body part? At least a doctor carries malpractice insurance - if my willie falls off because he told me to do something, I hit the medical jackpot. I may not be able to have sex again, but I'd be rich! What type of insurance does www.spamalot.com have? None. They should all die horribly!
My hair is falling out worse and worse by the day. I wish that one morning I would just wake up bald, instead of this slow migration and lingering hope. Just fall the fuck out already! I look enough like a babydoll after a tornado, thank-you-very-much!
I read an article today that just got me laughing, I'd link to it but I can't find a working link. (Whatever happened to the good old days of HTML?) There was a major study done on kids who promise to be virgins vs. those that hadn't. Have you heard about this practice? It's big in the southern part of the country and in other heavily protestant areas. These kids take an oath to abstain from sex until marriage. Big ritual to it, lots of peer pressure, daddies buying their little girl promise rings - yeck! But, that's just my personal opinion - the study was more balanced. They showed that STD rates for "pledgers" vs. non-pledgers was about equal. About 99% of non-pledgers and, get this, 80% of pledgers had sex before marriage over a ten year study. However, the non-pledgers were much more likely to wear a condom. So, the pledgers caught up on the STD percentage because they were having secret, unprotected sex. Oy! Folks, teach your kids, don't force them to bury their heads in the sand. It's very likely that your kids are smarter than you - it's a factor of the education system and the modern environment. Explain to them the joys of waiting until they are married, but also show them how to use a condom and explain to them the difference between safe-sex and contraception. They will use the information wisely. Don't know the difference? Call your family doctor and have him explain it to you. There is no good reason why your kids should pick up some minor STD or worse! No promise ring will stop that! There is no better tool for safe sex than a little education. This study only dealt with STD's - I would love to have seen the pregnancy rates as well!
The Sniper got a death sentence. Too bad we can't kill him as many times as he killed others. I think he should be executed with a firing squad - seems only fair.
How can we protect the institution of marriage by denying it to a select minority? Since when did marriage become a country club? Are going to start putting up signs in front of city halls that say "You must be this hetro to get a marriage license" with an arrow pointing to a picture of Dan Quayle? Protecting children, they say. Everytime I see a gay couple with kids, the kids are happy, healthy, well educated and clean. I look up and down my block at dirty, dumb, underfed kids playing in the street - look what "protected" marriages have done for them! I see gay couples emptying orphanages and I see breeders producing more and more brain dead brats. They keep saying they are protecting this institution, yet, it would seem to me that a 50% divorce rate does more to undermine the institution of marriage in this country than any group of gays in love. Do you see any politicians running a Constitutional Amendment banning divorce up the flag pole? Yeah, me neither.
I'm getting hair plugs and lypo - then I'm moving to Canada where I can hunt moose in peace for the rest of my life.
