Death, it’s pretty damn final.

Grim2

It is said that the only things in life that we know for certain are death and taxes. Well, taxes can be avoided if you’re part of the 1%, but death, unless you’re a Turritopsis nutricula (Immortal jellyfish), your chances of living more than 70~90 years are pretty damn slim. Even animals mourn their dead....

A few steps forward, giant leaps backward.

SarahPalinCrossFlag

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers. The argument “argumentum ad populum” and argument from authority seems to be some of the most popular, yet most simplistic arguments in use today. The sad thing? People never stop falling for them. So, what do you do with a whole planet full of mostly...

Save yourself – eat a vegetarian

MagiePETA

I didn’t claw my way to the top of the evolutionary food chain to eat lettuce. I love animals. I really do, but we need to face facts. We are animals too and some of us need red meat to be healthy. I went pescatarian (Veggies, dairy produce and some fish) for a short...

Punishment should merit the crime

CuffBall

Firstly, judging by the amount of false convictions, it is pretty apparent there is no way – at the moment – of determining “absolute” guilt. Much as I do believe in breaking a few eggs to make an omelette, I don’t think it would exactly be “humane” (whatever that means) to implement these rather...

Freedom? What freedom?

LadyLiberty

Society is filled with intolerant people and unfortunately some of the more tolerant types have become far too politically correct for our own good. We have sold our freedom to politicians, government, and by respecting and tolerating far too many damn things in society, our tolerance of ridiculous things may have ironically been a catalyst...

Surgically enhanced – Keeping “ugly” in the gene pool

LipoSurgery

While I am kind of stuck between a rock and a hard place in that if someone has a physical feature that is deemed by the majority as “ugly” and can repair it, they should do it, for some things, I don’t think people should be altered. As a kid growing up, for example,...

Culling the herd – legalize drugs, prostitution & suicide

BigBangSuicide

I feel it is important to be altruistic. That is to say, to care for your fellow man. However, when your fellow man deliberately wants to harm himself, I don’t feel it is a good idea to leave him in the gene pool. I personally think it is better to have him remove himself...

The absurdity of marriage

DivCake1

You know, they say that lately “divorce” is just the future tense of “marriage”. Another celebrity marriage has become a statistic. After what appeared to be a fairytale marriage, Katy Perry and Russell Brand are getting a divorce. Some fairy-tale ending, ay? Fourteen months, was it? I’ve had longer lease agreements on cars than...

B00Bs are for admiring, not hiring!

yellowB00Bs3

This is a rather long story (but an entertaining read) of my experience of looking for two b00bs, hiring them, and getting one complete one to end up working for me. A few other hiring experiences are thrown in for good measure. About a year ago, my on-line store was stagnant. After investing thousands...

Social Networks & Unicorn Kids

SocialNetworks

These are just some observations on habits of people on social networks and “modern” communication in general that really annoy me. Top of the list has got to be these people that use the word “my friend” as in “How are you my friend?” as if they have some insecurity about being recognized as...

Internet Highway to Heaven

internetheaven

Why is it that some people on “special” days like Christmas or New Year feel the need to bring up some tragedy or memory of a loved one? It is usually on Facebook and usually written in the first tense aimed directly to the person as if they were still alive. Do they honestly...

Beware the drones. You may know one.

drone

Several years ago, I recall visiting an aunt and uncle. Well, actually, I was there to see my cousin. I hadn’t seen her in years and I was giving her something. My aunt and I aren’t exactly on speaking terms. We have a difference of opinion on many things. Her strong religious views deem...

decompiling the “god” virus

cancercell

I’ve had many discussions over religion with theists and they usually take the form of me asking a lot of questions. I don’t usually assert much (I don’t have to), but I ask a lot of questions. Questions ironically provoke more anger than anything else amongst the faithful. Anything that threatens their “faith” security...

Sometimes we just need a good spanking.

Adu-300x190

Screaming kid in the shopping centre knowing his rights and that he can’t be reprimanded in public. It’s like the criminals in this society. They have more rights than the victims! Ah, the “good” old days when it was still okay to whip your kids if they misbehaved, or you could get out of...

Don’t feed the trolls.

200px-Trollface_svg

Something that I am not particularly fond of in the internet era is what happens when you give someone a free public forum to say things, but with complete anonymity and little or no consequence for their actions. When people are given license to do whatever they want with little consequence, the behaviour that...

MMO’s: fun & disturbing experiences

killershowercurtain

If you don’t know what a MMORPG (Massive Multiplayer Online Role Playing Game) is, or what WoW (World of Warcraft) is, then I’ll let you know that about ten million people play this particular game. There are many other MMO’s out there with a lot less, but each still numbering in the millions of...
