The Idea of Video Ranting and Other things

The Idea of Video Ranting and Other things

For a little while I was actually considering doing a video rant but then I went onto youtube.com and saw all the shit these other people will try and do. It seems like most of them take more time finding some theme music and production then they do on there actual thoughts. Sure I could go and pick up some video camera and then set up and maybe put some microphones all around my house so I got the best sound and production possible. However I would rather spend my money on other things. Another factor into this is that if people need me to do a video in order to listen to what I have to say then I really don’t care if they know my opinion. My writing style is very easy reading, so if people are too lazy to read it then I really wouldn’t want them reading it in the first place. Anyways now that I got that part done with I’ll continue.

You know I was watching TV the other day and I every time I see one of those antismoking commercials I swear I just want to go out and buy a pack of cigarettes. The media and everyone have vastly overrated the health hazards of smoking. Now I am not going to sit here and say how smoking is good for you because it’s not but let’s be honest here for a second… What really is? Someone dies for reason that has nothing to do with smoking and yet these antismoking people go and say how they died of smoking. An example of this is my uncle who died about 6-7 years ago. The guy had a stroke about a year before he died. They found out that he had gotten cancer due to overexposure to asepsis when he was in the Navy. After he got cancer he didn’t smoke again and then about a year or so later the cancer came back and he ended up dying. Now I guarantee you that even though he didn’t die of smoking and there was no evidence that he did at all, the anti tobacco companies are going to include him in that stat for people who have died of smoking. Again I am not saying smoking is good for you, however how bad it is, is vastly overrated.

The other day I was watching this thing in National Geographic and it was about this black bear who kept on attacking people. Now black bears are not like grizzly bears. They do not as often attack people randomly and will usually stand clear of people. Now this one bear and they confirmed it was all just one black bear. Attacked several people and actually killed a woman. This bear just wouldn’t stop attacking people and it wasn’t stopped until it was eventually killed. During the show they kept on talking about what was making the bear act the way he was acting. They were asking if maybe something was attracting it and they ended up coming to the conclusion that nothing was attracting it. Anyways after watching it they brought out the possibility that the bear was perhaps just an asshole.

This conclusion made the most sense and I think at times we overanalyze stuff. If a person can just simply be an asshole then why would it be such a hard thing to fathom that an animal could just be an asshole? Another example of this would be the stingray that killed Steve Irwin. Yet all they do was try to figure out why the Stingray did it. Perhaps the stingray was just thinking this guy is pissing me off and I’m going to stab him. Just like people can be assholes I believe animals can be the same way.

Alright I’m going to end this rant with this. It feels much better to do this rant and I feel much better. I was thinking about getting a little personal with this rant but I don’t like doing that. Anyways have a great day and don’t go getting Pregnant/getting someone pregnant, killed or arrested.

Another One

Another one

Alright that time has come again for me to do another rant. In this rant I will discuss things that involve things in which also involve things. Which pretty much mean I’m just going with the flow here.

Alright let’s first start off with whores. I really don’t understand it when a whore will be like. “I’m not a whore, I’m in escort”. Bitch you are willing to get fucked and suck dick for money, in my book that makes you a whore. Being a whore is fucking disgusting though. I just can’t see how these girls can just have so little respect for themselves that they are willing to sell themselves for money. People like that I look down on.

Alright let me just say another thing I can’t stand. I was watching some infomercial last night and they were discussing some exercise machine. I forget what it was and I’m sure it was just like all the other ones. But they showed these guys and girls with these abs that were rock hard. Hell the girls you could see her ribs and they tried to pass that off as attractive. That is not attractive and I can tell you right now that girls do not want a guy with abs that is hard. Sure I have a little more cushion in my stomach then I should have but my girl is going to like that better then feeling like she is putting her head on a rock.

Also I was working really late last night and I swear that there are so many fucking infomercials out there. A lot of them have to do with these ways in which you can make thousands of dollars and work part time. Anyways I saw this same infomercial last week and I jotted down the number, and then I saw it again yesterday and wrote down the number again. They were 2 different numbers. Not only that but this company never actually gave their name out in the infomercial. So anyways to continue this I decided to actually give this number a call. Now in the infomercial they told me that this whole thing was 100% free to get all set up and everything, however when I called them up it was told that I would have to pay 40 bucks to get set up. Now this was a one time charge and they said that the usual fee is over 700 bucks. Anyways this machine was going on forever. The idea of the company was to work as a networking and pretty much spam peoples e-mails up and give them a link to this website that this company was going to supply to me. All kinds of bullshit but when I listened to it all I could sense were that this was a scam. Anyways I am going to watch this infomercial again next week because it was on the same channel and at the same time (which happens to be 3am) and see if there is going to be a third different number they will give me. Hell I may even try doing it just to see how much more money they will end up charging me because I can guarantee you that the 40 bucks was only a start but they swore that was all it was going to cost. I can’t even give the name of the company because they never did say what the name of the company was.

Alright while I am here I am also going to do a little rant on ESPN. Now baseball season started a while ago however during the off-season all they did was attack Barry Bonds for using steroids and saying that people shouldn’t even pay attention if he breaks the HR record. So then the season starts and all of a sudden ESPN is all over Barry Bond’s nuts again. I swear the second this guy hits a HR they stop everything and tell you. Hell if you go to ESPN.com and he hits a HR a popup will come up and say how many HRs he has and how many more until he breaks this record. Yeah so much for the whole lets ignore what this roided up bastard (yes bastard not bastahd) is doing.

Well that’s all I got for you today. Have fun reading what I wrote.
