Ok...What Are You Going To Bitch About Next???

     Well, after all of these years the "Birthers" got their wish...or did they???  There are many theories and reactions related to the recently released birth certificate of President Obama.  I was hoping that it would silence the people still persistent on seeing it...but then another part of me was wondering what bullshit excuse "Birthers" would come up with once the document was produced.  So far, the only thing they are saying is, "it is a certificate of live birth, not a birth certificate."  In a nutshell, you can't really ever satisfy a Sore Loser.

     I can't help but to wonder why no other Man who has been elected President had such an extensive background check.  I also can't help but wonder why the extensive search grew stronger AFTER he was elected.  This supports the Sore Loser nickname for Birthers.  Not all Birthers are Racists.  Whether they are racist or not, Birthers are pissed that the person they did not vote for became president (by a landslide as I recall).

     This is the reason why America is a wonderful country to live in; if Obama does a horrible job in his first four years...the American people will vote him out and give another candidate a chance at the position! 
     That is what VOTING is for.  When Carter did such a shitty job, the American people put Ronald Reagan behind the wheel.  When the first Bush did such a shitty job, the American people put Bill Clinton behind the wheel.  That is how this country works!  The Americans liked what Reagan did his first four years...which is why he got four more.  The Americans liked what Clinton did his first four years...which is why he got four more.  Don't you Birthers see how this works?

     The bottom line is, you can complain, bitch, yell, whine, protest, leave the country, I really don't give a shit what you do.  Nothing is more powerful and affective than VOTING.  Protests will not get a President impeached.  Starting a TEA Party wont get the President impeached.  Claiming that the President is a Muslim will not get him impeached.  Most importantly, looking for a fucking birth certificate will not get a president impeached (nor get you elected, Donald, I'm talking to you!).  If your life has been soooooo devastated by the election and actions of Obama and his administration for the past three years...the most effective thing you can do is vote for someone else...and stop your bitchin.

     Everything you do besides voting is a waste of time.  Cast your vote and then shut the fuck up.  We should all be grateful to live in a country where we can piss and moan over an executive administration. 

A Young Man on an Old Man's Soapbox

Do you know what happens when spoiled ass children grow up and have spoiled as children of their own?  You have a fucked up generation on the rise full of narcissistic self-absorbed delinquents with some undeserving sense of entitlement.  I will call this group Generation ME.

This all started when some parents out there adopted the mantra: No one spanks my child but me.  Some of them refused to dicipline their children at all.  These are the same parents that when their child acts up in school, the parents find some way of blaiming the School Teachers.  These parents raise the kids that eventually feel as if it is their right to mouth off to Adults, even Police Officers.  They grow up with this can't do no wrong mentality under their parent's umbrella but then fall right on their face when the dark cloud, a.k.a. the real world, starts raining down on them. 

My two pet peeves regarding potential physical confrontations:  1-Women that start shit knowing that I can't retaliate because I am a man and 2-Teens that start shit knowing that I can't retaliate because I am over the age of 18.  Since I got rid of a physcho ex-girlfriend many years ago, I have had no issues with pet peeve 1.  Pet peeve 2 is a different story.  Generation ME members love the fact that they can mouth-off to adults knowing that there will be no repercusions because the adult will most likely go to jail.  Sometimes when I hear news stories about Adults that get charged with Aggrivated Assult to a Minor, I often think that those Adults either lost their temper or simply lost their fear of going to jail. 

So no we have this massive Generation ME infestation...and it's not just people under the age of 18.  There are Generation ME members in the 20's and even 30's who refuse to be independant and leave their parent's umbrella.  True they are the age of adults, but they lack the desire to maintain adult responsibilities that enable them to have adult privilages.  They want to reap the harvest of a hard worker without sowing any seeds of hard work.  There comes a time in everybody's life where they are considered a failure if they are still financially depandent on their parents.  I have a hard time respecting someone or even calling them an adult if they don't even pay their own bills.

The parents who spawned the members of Generation ME are not completly innocent.  They spent too much time being providers and not enough time being teachers.  One of their biggest mistakes was trying to be their child's friend as opposed to their parent.  What they didn't know is that they put more stress on getting their kids to like them instead of getting their kids to respect them.  Perhaps their mantra should have been:  You don't have to like me, but you will respect me. 

I hate it when people say "it's a lot different when you have kids of your own."  True, I have no kids of my own, but is that a requirement to be able to make comments about the spoiled ass members of Generation ME?

The State of the Reaper Address

With one year of marriage under my belt, I think I have this "husband" role pretty much mastered.  It's just like playing the "boyfriend" role except more is at stake.  I think the most common negative issue dealing with new marriages is the expectations afterwards.  I've seen too many people (especially females) expect that "magical" rings are being exchanged in which everything completely changes after the groom kisses the bride.  In most cases, there is no magical change. 

I am against the idea that people shouldn't "shack up" prior to marriage.  A lot of conservatives get on the soap box or preach saying it is wrong (as in "living in sin").  I am not saying everybody should shack up before marriage, but it sure as hell didn't hurt me.  Sometimes you truly don't know someone until you have lived with them.  There have been plenty of friendships that were ruined after the two friends decided to become roommates, relationships aren't much different. 

I knew my Crazy Wife for a good while before we even started dating.  This gave her a chance to get a glimpse at every annoying and irritating aspect about my lifestyle and my less-than-favorable habits.  This ensured that there would be no "surprises" later in the relationship.  Depending on the conflicts of the relationship, you should spend more time understanding your differences with your significant other rather than try to correct them.  She completely understands that I LOVE my video games.  I completely understand that she LOVES her Cougartown TV show.

Not everything stayed completely the same though.  I noticed that both families (hers and mine) treated us differently.  They were more welcoming and accepting of our relationship since we jumped over the broom and made it official.  Believe it or not, I enjoyed being treated like an "in-law" instead of just "the boyfriend." 

Although I do not think we are completely out of the "newlywed" stage, things are pretty much settling down.  The purpose of this post was not to try to spout of marriage advise or anything because I'm pretty new at it myself.  The purpose of this post is to let people know that marriage ain't as bad as I thought it was going to be.  Either I got the best wife in the world...or the other shoe is going to drop very soon.

is GOD a MATHEMATICIAN?

Where do I start?

First of all...I am only one chapter in this book as of April 18, 2011. Not only is the title catchy, but it was recommended by a good friend of mine.

I grew up pretty much agnostic/atheist. I was fueled on the fact that no atheist nor agnostic person judged me like people of faith did. Math was the only thing that made sense to me (which explains why I am the Nerd that I am now). People can debate all day whether or not there is a God, but you can never debate the fact that the square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of its two legs (pythagorean theorem). Perhaps this book could start helping me bridge the gap between the laws of Mathematics (based on logic and reason) and the law of the Universe (independent of a specific creed). The best way to approach math is also the best way to appoach religion: with an open mind. It is not as difficult as you think it is.

I like that this book is not religion specific. When I studied religion in college, my main curiosity was what all religions had in common. I hear about religious differences everyday on the news. So far the book is taking a lighthearted approach to how Math and Philosophy once went hand in hand.

Whenever I take a break from paying video games, I'm going to dig deeper into this book.
