Greetings to all. @ the start of writing this, it is 2:57am and I'm bored as hell at work. Can't say for sure why I'm really writing this. Been sitting here reading Main Forum and OOT posts for the past...oh, 3 hours.
I'm sure what I'm about to type stems from boredom and sleep deprivation, and probably is completely unoriginal...but I could care less. It's what I have to say.
What the hell is really going on any more? I mean...really, WTF? Do we, as people, as a society, as a species, have nothing better to do than to sit around and post our rants and raves in a sterile environment? I'm guilty too. Here I am adding my own litter. When was the last time any of us went to a demonstration? When was the last time any of us did anything worthwhile to the community? Hell when was the last time anyone that anyone knows anywhere did anything selfless for anyone else? Hell, I can't remember...and I like to think I'm one of those that will give the shirt off my back.
Who are we to sit here and say Bush this, and Bush that, and Republicans this, and Democrats that when KNOWING we ain't gonna do a damn thing about it. Seriously, do any of you reading this vote anymore? I'm registered, but I don't vote. I could say "It wouldn't count anyway." I know it does though. The Electoral collage votes according to the state. Seats in office have been one by as little as a vote, or 1%. Am I just lazy? Probably. But then again, isn't the rest of America?
And that gets me thinking of something else as well. As much I want to be an individual, for every reason that I have a bar code tattooed on my left forearm, I'm just like everyone else. I work to pay bills. I go out and buy stupid **** because I see something on TV about it. Think for a second people. Why do we do what we do?
By the gods and goddesses above...what have we become? Is there any true purpose to our lives anymore? Are we waiting for a change that will never come? I don't know...I wish I did though. I still don't understand why I am writing this. Maybe it was just to take up time until I do my reports. Maybe I need a personal wake up. Maybe someone reading this does. Whatever. I'm probably going to get flamed for this. Who cares. I feel like I got something of my chest. Please feel free to rant your own beef or flame me. It's your time you're using, not mine.
Peace, Love, and Hair grease.
