Genie: THANK YOU FOR FREEING ME MORTAL, I SHALL GRANT YOU A WISH!
Me: I wish people weren't as stupid as they are.
Genie: Look, I can give you immortality, vast wealth, and as many beautiful women as you want, but what you're asking is a bit beyond my power.
Me: FFF[REDACTED] ...So, tell me about those beautiful women again?


Just raging about people being idiots in general. All week I've been seeing people doing stupid crap in traffic, and I'm surprised that there hasn't been any serious traffic accidents.

And why is it there is only three competent people where I work(me and two others), in a place with about 15 people total, counting staff, volunteers, and slaves? There's one guy who, accoding to the year he said he graduated high school, is supposed to be at least 8 years older than me, but acts like a damn kid, messing around, mishandling stuff, and talking crap about and towards the girls working in the front building. Then there's the fat guy, who the other day took a large trash bag of stuff from work, and yesterday tried to do it again, but I put everything he tried to hide away back into its proper place the second he left.

And I think I figured why my boss fired the warehouse manager. About a year ago, when gay marriage became legal in New York, the operations manager was fired for removing some very inflammatory comments from our Facebook page posted by the boss, including some directed at some of our major financial donors. Well, yesterday, he was going on about Obama's "Gay is OK" speech, so I'm guessing something must have happened there between him and the manager.

EDIT: Oh yeah, I've also had this annoying headache for a few days now. I could barely get up this morning because of how bad it was.

... Yes, the hugs are for everyone.  No stabbing, though.  Just hugs.

You'd think that would be the optimal outcome.

I know what you mean, and it infuriates me. Seeing the way that young people act in my town makes me fear for this country's future. It's like they literally have no fear nor any concept of the consequences of some actions.

It feels incredibly strange to be saying this at 19, but back in my day, we had at least a little respect for other people, and we didn't do completely stupid shit for no reason. Okay, that second part was a lie, but we only did stuff that could hurt us.

This, except 17. I don't remember acting like that and I don't remember a whole lot of people around me acting like dumbasses.

Most people don't do stuff like that. I'm certain plenty of kids of your age, my age, everyone's age were violent and stupid, but they're still the minority.


There's also outside encouragement to consider. If kids see their parents or peers doing similar stuff, they're likely to emulate it.

Quote from: Chesterton
For, in order that men should resist injustice, something more is necessary than that they should think injustice unpleasant. They must think injustice absurd; above all, they must think it startling. They must retain the violence of a virgin astonishment. When the pessimist looks at any infamy, it is to him, after all, only a repetition of the infamy of existence. But the optimist sees injustice as something discordant and unexpected, and it stings him into action.

Douchebaggery in high school is timeless. Just look at the Romney story. That was like 100 years ago. The volume of random acts of cruelty in highschool is only slightly less than in war.
