Ok well this should be a real interesting blog because I will be covering many topics it was only going to be one but someone just had to ask a couple of questions. So for my first portion it comes with a warning to any young ones. You see some young people may get a tad upset about some of the things I may say but I can pretty much guarantee that most if not all adults will agree with me on some of these subjects however some kids who read this may agree but that’s just due to good parenting. Anyhow if you feel that you may be offended by my topic then just scroll down a few paragraphs where I will be talking about the other subjects, movies and teenage love.
So for those of you still with me I’m going to be talking about ignorance. Now when I say that I’m not talking intelligence I’m talking attitudes. I’ve been throwing this topic around in my head for a while now but then it was called something else. After yesterday and a little bit this morning it evolved. Yesterday my friends and I were cleaning up the park and had started to setup in the only shelter in the park. We had our banner proudly hung displaying our efforts to keep the park clean. We were putting our blood, sweat, and tears (or at least blood and sweat not sure about the tears part) in to cleaning it when a group of people came and without asking anyone in our group proceeded to take down our banner. When approached about it they proceeded to get ignorant about it saying that they had a reservation which would have been fine if they stopped there however from what I heard they proceeded to make threats of bodily injury to some of our members. Personally I think that may have been due to the fact of looking at those members and being frightened of them for various reasons. Well we finally settled things with them peacefully mainly because we were the better (read not ignorant) people. Well things were ok until in my mind the rest of the ignorant young people came. They proceeded to blast their stereos and their rap music walking around with their pants below their asses showing the world their underwear.
Well now here’s the part where I start to sound old. First off they call what they listen to music? That is not music. I have nothing against rap but most of the stuff they play nowadays is far from rap. When I was growing up we had the good stuff NWA, Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg, LL Cool J, and even Run DMC. Most of the things they rapped about were smoking or sipping on Gin and Juice (laid back with my mind on my money and my money on my mind {oops sorry there I just couldn’t resist}) and the best part was they had a little something called a melody. Nowadays, from what I can understand, they talk about being thugs and pimps doing nothing but bragging about what they own. Which leads me to the other thing about today’s generation. Why the hell do they think we want to see their underwear? After all there is a reason it is called underwear that’s because you are supposed to wear it UNDER your pants. Now I don’t know if this is true or not but I heard somewhere that this was a fad that got started in jail, you see apparently in jail when you wear your pants like it meant you belonged to somebody, and when some rapper got out of jail they started wearing their pants like that and it caught on. Now don’t get me wrong I have no problems with that but I’m not so sure that they would be happy about it.
This leads me to another sign of ignorance now it wasn’t anything that happened yesterday but it still bugs me and that is prejudice. Now we all know that prejudice is not something that is limited to skin color. There are people out there that will condemn you for many reasons all due to one thing you are different than them or even different than the norm. One prime example of this is when people hear that we are pagans they immediately assume many things about us that are false. “Ooo you’re pagan you must be a devil worshiper.” Or even “You’re a witch huh? Well don’t go turning me into a frog or anything”. Of course there is my favorite “You are a witch? Well may God Bless you and prevent you from going to hell.” People do the world a favor and read and learn about us before making assumptions and discriminating us from doing things because of our religion.
Anyhow, now that the serious part is out kids you can start reading again. So the first question was do you think your teen would know if they were in love? Well I don’t have any kids but I do think that it’s possible for kids at a young age to find their true love. This is mainly due to the fact that I am a romantic person and sometimes even have a sort of radar for that kind of stuff. Too bad it doesn’t work for me but when do any cosmic things work for one self. Any how the second question asked was what movie do you hold above all other as your favorite? Well for me this was a simple choice, The Princess Bride. This movie has everything in it sword fights, pirates, comedy, action, and there was one more thing that made it great um let me think oh yeah true love.
Now for everybody’s favorite part the Random Bachelor Dare Card of the Day. Today’s card is: “Tell a gal a dirty joke. If she doesn’t laugh, keep telling dirty jokes till she does.”
Wow yet another lame one. I promise that these can and will get better but at least I’m weeding out the lame ones first.
Wow sorry people I guess I got a little too carried away with this 1028 words.
Actually, I like the random card of the day. And I think that Princess Bride is a very good choice for a favorite movie.
ReplyDeleteI do have to say that if somebody were to do what that card suggests it could cause you to go home with a few bruises though!
