It's spring, and its been really nice out lately. With all the warm weather there are a lot of women walking around in shorts and tank tops, and other really cute spring/summer time clothes. I do what any other guy does, I admire the scenery.
Im single and looking, and yea I'm looking a lot lately. Lots of beautiful women of all ages prancing about enjoying the sun and nice weather. Good times are had by all.
So why am I posting? Well, I saw a woman walking down the street, she was petit and had gorgeous hair. I was thinking to myself "Wow, thats really nice hair, I wonder if thats natural or colored?" It was a really nice Auburn with shiny highlights that really looked awesome. Im thinking she must be some college student from somewhere in the area just walking about on her lunch break. I walk a little faster to see if I could get a glimpse of her face, maybe a smile and polite hello as we pass. She turns to enter a shop and just then I'm thinking, "She really has nice haiAAAAHHH!!!!". Turns out the 'young lady' I was looking at must've been in her mid 70's and had that really leathery way to tanned skin. I recoiled so hard I think I hurt my back. Not that older people shouldn't try to be pretty or anything, It just really was something out of the twilight zone, or outer limits. She was walking at a good pace, nothing to indicate an older woman. Guess she was in pretty good shape, god bless her. But sheesh, I was NOT ready for that. I mean i was already in mid fantasy when the truth was revealed. *shudder*
Looks like I need to more fact finding before I start drooling. I'll see you later, I gotta find something for this back pain.

Stupidity is a Sickness
You know its a sickness, you've caught it from time to time just like a cold or flu. We all have. Each of us has taken our turns being completely stupid. Sometimes for mere moments and other times for years on end. (You know who you are) But the truly afflicted, these are those people who are chronically stupid. They may spend their entire lives going from one act of stupidity to the next. They are stupid on such a scale as to dwarf all other stupidity. These people need our help.
How can we help you ask? Well there is no 'stupid shot' to cure these people. There is no pill to alleviate the pain of their affliction(or ours). It's a long and arduous process, much like rehabilitation of a broken limb. So what do we do? It's very simple. We mock them. Seriously, we mock them. At our core what becomes unpleasant becomes something we do less. And being mocked and embarrassed is not something anyone enjoys. Psychologists call it 'Negative Reinforcement". I call it the answer to all of our problems. There may be no cure for cancer, but I say there IS a cure for stupidity. And it is our responsibility to make this world a better place.
Now its possible that mocking people is something certain people may be uncomfortable with. Personally I don't know anyone like that, but I'm leaving it open for those select few that think its 'wrong' to point out someone's flaws for the rest of us to laugh at. And if they say otherwise they've probably been on the receiving end for far to long to appreciate its value to society. All you need to do is go to Google Video, or YouTube to see the value in mocking someone else's stupidity for your own personal enjoyment. Mocking people comes naturally not only because its funny, but because its built into out DNA as part of our survival instinct. When primitive man was huddled in a cave for shelter and protection from predators, what happened to the guy making all that noise and attracting the animals to feed? He was most likely beaten. But lets say if a similar but less offensive act was committed, leaving out a stray piece of meat for example, that cave man was mocked and ridiculed and forced to change that behavior for the good of the tribe.
And so it should be with our modern brethren. Why do we have to accept all this stupidity and lower our standards as humans when all you need to do is mock those idiots and point out to them that this sort of stupidity is not acceptable. Not only have we pointed out to the perpetrator of the stupid act that it was indeed something completely stupid, but we've instilled in them the feeling that they never want to do that stupid thing ever again. And all the while we've made the rest of us smile and laugh at their expense thereby lightening the load of shouldering the consequences of their stupidity. To quote Friedrich Nietzsche, "That which does not kill us makes us stronger." So as long as you can't kill someone with ridicule, I say have at it.
In effect we all become happier, the stupid gain valuable knowledge of their stupidity so that they may act on seeking treatment. And that treatment may simply be to be more informed about their surroundings. Possibly reading a newspaper, or a book. Becoming an overall better person because of it. To quote Abraham Lincoln, "Upon the subject of education, not presuming to dictate any plan or system respecting it, I can only say that I view it as the most important subject which we as a people may be engaged in. That everyone may receive at least a moderate education appears to be an objective of vital importance."
Education through mocking. It could elevate us to higher standards of living. It could bring about world peace, lower gas prices, and put an end to homelessness. All we need to do is simply point and laugh. Something any 3rd grader can do, and the world can be a better place. It could save us all.

Hello there
I wanted somewhere to just rant a bit, share some funny links and really just express my distress over the rampant plague sweeping the planet called "stupid people". I didnt know if I wanted to host my own site, or whatever, but this seemed a nice way to just stop procrastinating and start posting.
Hello everyone. I don't know how entertaining this will all be for you guys, but I plan to have a good time ranting my ass off. And I expect you'll laugh with me as I describe the most seriously afflicted members of our society I encounter on a regular basis.
Thanks for stopping by, by the way :)
