Dear Spammer
Could you please stop spamming my comments, as this site is not searchable on any search engine, and I have no readers anyway. Thank you.
Edit: No more comments allowed. Haven’t had a legit one for over a year anyway.
I (insert activity) This, So You Should Too.
Every once in a while, I watch a TV show, and feel like posting a recommendation or condemnation of it. I get that feeling after some movies as well. Music, yup, feel like that as well. Restaurants, not so much, but still, I could easily recommend a greasy spoon or two. The problem? Well, first off I’m lazy. It’s been a couple months since I actually posted anything here. I’ve written a few drafts, but never polished them off in order to post, and their content is now a little dated. And second? Secondly, you might not actually like the same things that I do.
Aaaarrrggghhhh!!!
For fuck sakes why? Why do people believe that by changing their profile pictures they’re doing any fucking good to a cause? Honestly, it does nothing. The latest fucking brilliant idea from some idiot using Facebook? Change your profile pic to your favourite childhood cartoon character to raise awareness of child abuse. Really? Do you really think that is going to do anything? Is it going to make a child abuser go “I shouldn’t smack the shit out of my kids because people on Facebook are more aware of child abuse”? Is it going to make a victim of child abuse go “I get the shit kicked out of me by my parents/guardians/siblings, but it’s OK, because Facebook users have changed their profile pics to some stupid character from a cartoon”? No.
All it does is give some fuck-wit that wanted to see how many people s/he could get to follow along with them changing their pic with some spurious reason an ego boost. If you want to do it, at least make a donation to a victim support group, because showing your support for the cause without actually doing anything to support the cause is ridiculous. Changing your profile picture doesn’t give any money to the people actually helping the victims. It doesn’t help the police catch the fucks that abuse the kids in the first place.
And yes, I have covered this before, but more people are following along with this than any other “Support this cause” action I’ve seen on Facebook. And it annoys me to no end. It gives the people that start these stupid things the idea that they are actually helping the cause, when in reality they are just trivializing it. It becomes the fashionable thing to do. “Support” a cause with no further actions than a couple clicks of the mouse and no money out of pocket, time spent mentoring the victims, or any other meaningful activity to help with victims of child abuse.
No meh. Stop being stupid.
Road Rule #5: Blocking traffic on a corner is perfectly all right.
I’m surprised that I haven’t written this one before, because this is one of the most common abuses of the law that I see. When you make a left hand turn on a lighted intersection, there has to be enough room for your vehicle without blocking cross traffic if the light turns green for them. (more…)
Interesting. A Recipe Website for the Lazy Bastard.
As many of you know, I love to eat. What I spend on food in a month could feed a family of four for the same time period. What I hate is cooking. I get distracted when I’m cooking, I never have the right ingredients for what I want to cook, and sometimes, I just don’t know what I want to cook with the ingredients that I have. The first two are something that no application or website is going to help me with. But I just found a website to help with the third. (more…)
I added this app for (insert charity here) and if you support it, you should too.
Recently I’ve been seeing a lot of people making their status updates on Facebook about how they support this or that charity. And it annoys me. Now, most people can see that I don’t update my facebook status that often, because if you really want to know what I’m doing at any particular moment, pick up your phone and use it for what it was originally intended for. Phone me. If I’m busy, I won’t answer. Leave a message and I’ll probably phone you back. (more…)
Road Rule #4: Whoever is behind you is far more important than you are
Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve seen anything on the road that was Road Rule worthy. I blame the lack of driving lately. But I saw one last month (Jesus I need to update more often). Well, was involved in one more like it. See, driving home, I was doing the speed limit. Oh dear god how could I be doing the speed limit? (more…)
Skullnerd needs to drive
Seriously, I haven’t been out driving for a couple months now. Yes, I’ve driven from home to whatever destination I need to go to, but I haven’t been DRIVING. The crappy part about the limited income that I have right now is that I can’t really afford to put gas into the Thunderbird. Not in the quantities that I would need to go out and do some frivolous drive for the sake of driving type driving. (more…)
Road Rule #3: High Beams are to be Used at all Times.
I love driving. I love the night. I absolutely detest driving at night. I used to enjoy it. The lack of people on the roads, the lack of sun burning me if I’m driving west, and not needing the air conditioning running full blast in order to keep the car cool. (more…)
Why is this on now?
So, it’s two in the morning. I’m bored, and flipping through the channels. I don’t know why, but I stop on A&E. Normally when that happens its something shiny that catches my eye and gets me watching. This time, I have no idea of what it could have been. It’s a show about cyberbullying. (more…)
