  • The KKK took my Xbox away

    suffering digital withdrawal
    so much similarity with a tweeker
    i get cravings here and there
    more like all the time
    without it forces me to face reality
    no story, game, or character
    stops life.

    it's why i'm writing this
    a reminder that i have goals
    but i just lie here
    for hours and hours
    it made it seem like i had a full life
    even though i don't have a job

    but thank you
    and even though im not smiling yet
    it makes me feel like thoreau
    isolated in his cabin
    writing what is to become his immortality

  • Help Me Find a Girlfriend...

    ...by answering these questions.

    Ok here's the deal. I'm 25 and I've never really been in a relationship and I thought it would be cool to try it out. Now I could just go out there and try to find someone but before I do that, I thought it would be a good idea to ask everyone here for advice and lessons from their own past experiences and heart aches. I mean it would save a lot of time and pain right? I need all the advice and wisdom in this crazy dating world and to understand the intricate minds of women.

    And please respond in numerical form (as in put a number next to your response so I know which question you're answering)

    Places

    1) I want to meet single women but I'm not a big fan of clubbing, and I only like certain types of bars. Actually scratch that, I heard that meeting women at bars and clubs are not a good idea. Where's a good place to find single, smart, funny, women? Feel free to list by category. Like where do smart women hang out? Or indy-hippy sheik-bohemian type women? Or friendly bookworm women?

    2) Do women go to other places expecting to get hit on? I don't mean that in a demeaning way but removing bars and clubs leaves a small amount of places to choose from. Like if you see a hot girl sitting at the park not doing anything and she looks bored, is hitting on her a good or bad idea? What about a yoga class? Super Market?

    3) Do women really go to clubs just to dance? WTF? Or is the "I'm just here to dance" excuse just a cop out because they don't want to look like sluts in front of their friends? Some friends tell me that girls expect to get hit on in bars and clubs, but then some girls say, I don't go to a club or bar just to hang out with friends. WTH, why couldn't you just stay home and hangout and save me the trouble of getting rejected because you wanted to pay for expensively priced drinks.

    4) Is it weird for a guy to show up alone at places like clubs and bars? My close friends are either taken or just not the clubbing/ bar hopping type if you know what I mean. I just feel weird when I show up to these places alone. It's like I can't get into the same groove as opposed to when I'm with my friends. Or I feel like a complete lam-o.

    Women Questions

    4) When you say you like confident guys what does that exactly mean? Like I make all the decisions and take my needs and wants over yours? I have to be a super alpha male and I have to be the dominant leader of all things? Does this mean you expect me to make the first move? Never get nervous or worried? You expect me to always have the right things to say?

    5) Do women look for excitement and coolness-factor before they go for substance and character? In all honesty, do I have to be a dancing  monkey first before I become boyfriend material?

    6) Do I have to ask girls out when people aren't around, or when her friends aren't around? Or when people aren't around in general. It's just a theory I have, but every time I've asked a girl out she gets all nervous and looks around whenever I've asked and there's people around.

    7) I've hooked up with a girl one time who said that she had a boyfriend early in the evening, but then after we did it, I asked her about it and she said she didn't know why she said that and she doesn't really have a boyfriend. I think she knew but she didn't want to tell me. Why do girls say they have a boyfriend when they don't, and then hookup after saying they have a boyfriend for the purpose of getting me off their case? It just doesn't make sense.

    8) Does online dating work?


    Self-Esteem Stuff/Brain Games/Personal Issues

    9) What's the worst thing that has happened after you've asked someone out (to guys obviously)? What's been the worst rejection you've given a guy and what for? I find it very hard to be on the recieving end of rejection? How do you guys deal with the rejection?

    10) Does going up to a girl and saying "hi" really work? I mean, ok, I say "hi" and then what? It's weird to go up to somebody and just start talking about...what exactly? What if I started talking about the indy french movie I just saw. How do I even bring that up to a complete stranger?

    10) I'm a fairly quiet person and I don't really like talking about things that don't really interest me. But for some reason people find silence to be really nerve racking? Do you girls find silence awkward? Does that mean it's not a good date if you're not talking?

    11) If I do start talking about the things that interest me, I come off all weird and nerdy and geeky, so what the hell, it's like I don't have any options. It's like I get scared to ask questions which I think are going to be percieved as weird or stupid, but crap, it's either that or silence. Any tips or advice on this?

    12) Guys, I'm sure I'm not alone but when I talk to a girl I'm not attracted to I can be myself and funny and not really care if she likes me or not. The girl I don't like ends up liking me but I don't like her. But as soon as I talk to a girl I'm attracted to things, go 180. I get all nervous, quiet, and start sweating. Um...I just wanted to know if other dudes realize this about themselves.

    This is all I can think of right now. So please help me everyone, you're my only hope.

  • Why Wal-Mart is Bad

    A couple of days ago I actually had a Public Relations professor who defended the benefit of Wal Mart to the public people and the economy. Coming from that background, I knew that this guy probably only cared about making a profit or he was really uninformed of what Wal Mart is doing to America. I know that Wal-Mart is bad and evil based on the documentaries and readings that I have done concerning the atrocities and negligence they have committed to the American public. But I was too afraid to say anything in a class of about 30 and I've always regretted not standing and informing others that the professor was full of shit. Anyway, I wanted to post this link to a documentary that has some strong evidence against the notion that "Wal Mart is Good".

    Enjoy,

  • American Terrorism and American Policy: One and the Same

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sESIxjsvIjg&feature=related

    Here's a video of Noam Chomsky explaining American Foreign Policy and how America has repeatedly terrorized Latin American countries. Best part is it only takes him about 9 minutes to summarize it all. Great history lesson of how America abused its power after WWII.
