What's on your mind today?

[Pineapple]

I wrote this for a friend:

I hate the Christians, I hate the Muslims,
I hate the Baptists, I hate the Catholics,
I hate religion, and all it's idiocy,
boomdeyada, boomdeyada, boomdeyada, boomdeyada,

I hate the conservatives, I hate the far right wing,
I hate the bible belt, I hate the pro-life rage,
I hate their morality, I hate their ignorance,
boomdeyada, boomdeyada, boomdeyada, boomdeyada

I hate the bible, I hate the Koran,
I hate intolerance, I hate Leviticus 20:13,
I hate their crusades, and their animosity,
boomdeyada, boomdeyada, boomdeyada, boomdeyada,

Logically I hate everyone, since I'm one of those ignorant nonbelievers.
Logically.


I also watched Religulous this morning because I wasn't able to sleep. I can honestly say I enjoyed it. =)

The part where he was talking to the "ex-homosexual" I was able to laugh a lot because his homosexuality was bicurious-ness. He said "nobody is born gay", and I think I can beg to differ. >_>

And then he tried to pull the "gay people are gay because they're insecure" ruse. Lol I'm so insecure with women, that I've never had any interests in them, amirite? Totally.

That's hilarious and extremely frustrating and infuriating at the same time. What a joke.

My friend's mother was just diagnosed with kidney cancer. He let everybody know via Facebook, and I was really saddened by the number of "I'll be praying for you!" and "I'll make sure everybody sends out prayer requests!" comments.

How about doing something, oh, I don't know, fucking productive? Purchase time from a housekeeper to clean, or buy restaurant gift certificates, or offer to chauffeur if need be. Something that doesn't involve sitting on your well-meaning asses and pretending it helps.  :shake:

Not saying anything. It's neither the time nor the place. Hence me complaining here.

Fallen Jedii - I just had to steal your avatar for my msn.
You can always hope there is some special level of hell for avatar stealing blasphemers like me

This pisses off my mean uncle Tom, and he stands up and says something back to mom, then dad had to get in his face and the circle was bust.

"I'll pray for you" and "If it's God's will" and "The Lord works in mysterious ways" are all along the same vein.

My personal favorite though is when a hard Christian tells me about something bad that happened to them, like my homie that had his car engine fuse up from overheating... my response is always "Man, those acts of God really stick it in and break it off don't they?"

You know, it's hilarious. My friends and I do it, we all talk about it, and my friends still consider themselves catholic.

I remember when a bunch of religious fanatics came into our school teaching us abstinence. "Don't masturbate, don't have sex until your married, don't drink, don't smoke, don't yada yada yada!"

Now, I'm not saying everyone does all these things, but if you could find me one kid that hasn't done at least one of those I'd be stunned.

I did a reading today.

I did it in front of 70 odd people I don't even know. Considering I'm scared shitless of speaking in public, I'm pretty proud of myself. The Priest, an old buddy of mine, just Ninjas up behind me and went “I heard you're doing a reading for me today, Hat. You're a star.” and after a few minutes of “No I don't wanna” and “Oh go on” I gave in. I swear that man knows I can't say no to him. Everyone complimented me and things, some even asking what church I do my regular readings in. I have to @ them when I tell them that was my First Reading Ever. The Priest joked that he'll get some other Priests to me to get me to go to Mass, and I had hilarious mental images of a bunch of Priests outside my front door all “Come to Mass pls!”

In relation to what curiosityandthecat said, I know the feeling. People who have me on Facebook would have probably seen my small bits of Rage when my Uncle was taken into hospital and operated on at 4am. After spending some time around these people though, I think I might have a small ecuse for some of them. Maybe some of them feel like there's nothing much they can do, so praying is the only thing they believe that will help. Then again they could just be lazy gits like myself, I don't know |D

Today I attended the Gilroy Garlic Festival. It's basicaly an Oktoberfest with a garlic theme, at least an American Oktoberfest with a garlic theme. The hotdogs come with garlic. The icecream comes with garlic. I did it because my roomates really wanted me to go and unfortunately I relented.

It was horrible. It was a herd of humans, thousands of them. They moved from stand to stand, pitifully exchanging money for what they presumably hoped would be garlic related meaning but turned out to be over-priced garlic flavored meat on a stick. They meandered around like cattle, following all the social conventions of such events. They each had to get one of the over-priced souvenirs because that's apparently what you do at these things. My roomates encouraged me to buy a $50 wallet because mine has been held together with tape for 5 years. The argument doesn't follow. It's holding just fine. But apparently I just had to buy something. I didn't.

A police helicopter circled overhead. There were police fucking everywhere. There were 2-3 at each intersection where they had to divert traffic. Why did they need so many? One police officer can handle traffic control at an intersection, no? Why does everyone have to be so fucking safe? Why does an Oktoberfest need a circling helicopter? Like the cattle might actually do something that isn't 100% predictable.

They had music. It was lowest common denominator and banal. I hated it.

To get a beer, I had to queue in one line to have my ID checked, another line to get a beer "ticket" and yet another line to get a beer. This is not how beer works. Drinking beer is a social activity. Reducing drinking beer to a system completely misses the point of drinking beer.

And they had nowhere to smoke a cigarette. Now that really pissed me off =).
