Boy, I love going on to my Facebook newsfeed and being bombarded with people's shared picture posts. I don't care if you love your parents. I don't care if you love your child. I don't care if you want to punch stupid people in the face. I don't care if you think this nation needs to return to one nation under God. JFC I JUST DON'T CARE. No one cares!
Yesterday must have been queen bee Monica's brat's birthday party. And naturally a lot of the girls from work were invited, including my FWA and her friend. It's almost cute how much they kiss Monica's ass and she did nothing but bad-mouth them all of the time (and probably still does).
Actually no, it's just pathetic.
I watched FYI last night when I was getting ready for bed (Food Factory was on) and when I put my TV on this morning, it was still tuned to FYI and I think that show Arranged was on. I've never watched, but I've seen enough commercials for it to know that I want to kick that Christian guy repeatedly in the nads with a pair of steel-toed boots (hopefully until he can no longer reproduce). One of the arranged people, a blonde chick, seemed to be having problems with her future mother-in-law. And as soon as the MIL opened her mouth, I could see why. Apparently this woman feels men and women aren't equal and she doesn't feel that a woman should ever be president and a woman should not a do a man's job and women should cook and clean and men should fix and build things. You know what? If you feel women are that inferior to men, then take your old outdated ass to a Middle Eastern country where they feel the same way about women, you stupid cow.
And speaking of ass backwards thinking, I'm glad the Superior Court ruled in favor of gay marriage on Friday. Seethe, homophobes, SEETHE.
And screw you, Bristol Palin, for raking in hundreds of thousands of dollars preaching abstinence to people and not partaking in it yourself. You're a slap in the face to people who truly do practice abstinence, whether intentionally or unintentionally. FUCK YOU. And fuck Candie's.
Man, I hate Sundays with a passion. Especially when you have to celebrate Father's Day a week later and your daddy dearest is being his typical daddy dearest self.

Ellen DeGeneres Ad: One Million Moms Angry Over JC Penney Christmas Commercial
Pot calling the kettle black, but.....Jesus, you people are sad. I really hope the Mayans are right.
You know what was my first thought when I saw this commercial? Holy God, they said Merry Christmas at the end, now the war on Christmas morons can't bitch at them this year. I don't remember if it was last year or the year before, but at the holidays, I went on Penney's Facebook page and people were ripping them multiple assholes over them saying happy holidays. I can't recall the last time my eyes rolled so hard.
And speaking of which, if one of my cousins posts one more picture like these on Facebook, I am going to put my foot up someone's ass:

Random Thoughts
Good news- I am not feeling as shitty as my last post. Man, I don't know what the hell was up my ass that night. I was really feeling bad. I didn't end up going to the party, and not shockingly, I am feeling shitty about not going. There are times I start worrying that I could be sociopathic, but I think the amount of guilt and remorse I feel in a given day is solid proof that I am not. I very much doubt a sociopath could feel guilt and remorse like this.
There is not much I do not feel guilty over- if I respond to someone in a way I did not feel was polite, if I don't say the right thing, if something bad happens, even if it is well out of my control, etc. Back in 2005, when I worked in a billing office, there was a doctor's office on the floor below and one day a man came in wanting to know if the office was open, and he starts telling me how his wife was just diagnosed with cancer and I don't remember what I said to him and while I don't recall being rude, I don't think I was sympathetic. More I was just shocked that this complete stranger was sharing with me, another complete stranger, of his wife's illness. But I still feel guilty that I was not more sympathetic to him.
I blame myself for pretty much everything that has went wrong in my life, including developing mental illness. Which for someone who is adamant about not having mental illness portrayed in a negative light anymore, it is a piss poor attitude towards it. I want for society to stop blaming mentally ill people for their illnesses, that it is as much of a real disease as cancer, yet I blame myself for my illness. Illnesses. Whatever.
I read an article over on Cracked about movie stereotypes and one was about disabilities in movies. How death seems to be preferred over being disabled. And that disabled people got all butt-hurt over it. Not that it takes much to butt-hurt people nowadays, especially some disabled people. I remember I read a blog a few years ago by a disabled woman and man, did she bitch a lot. But that isn't important. Look, maybe some people can overcome their disability and all that, but some just can't. I've already made it clear to most people in my life that should a time ever come in my life where I am faced with multiple limb amputation or death, do me the favor of death. I'll be damned to spend a life like that. And huzzah for you if you can do it. I can't. And frankly, a person's choice of wanting death over disability does not affect another disabled person's life.
I read Blind Gossip on a daily basis, mostly for the fun of it, because blind items are always to be taken with a grain of salt. But as soon as I saw this one today, I knew a big storm would be coming. Because Louis was the first person I thought of. And sure enough, the storm of Larry fans did not disappoint. WOW. I really don't know whether to be horrified or laugh, because some of it is pretty damn hilarious. I honestly think there is a very good chance Louis could be gay. I know it's bad to stereotype, but that kid's mannerism just screams GAY. I watched a video of him talking about his parents' divorce and I'm like there is no way in hell this kid is not gay. He's so effeminate! Plus I always have to LOL at how every interview with him I have read, he always has to make just a little too many references to his "girlfriend Eleanor". Like why do you have to keep mentioning it? We know Eleanor is your girlfriend*. We know you are dating* her. There is no reason to keep repeating yourself. Unless you are desperately trying to prove something.
*quotations may or may not be needed here
I don't necessarily believe he's with Harry, though. I don't know if Harry is gay. He puts me in the mind of someone who really has no sexual preference, who would be with someone because they make him happy, man or woman. I think Harry is just someone who loves people in general. He'd love you regardless of gender, race, physical appearance, etc, etc.
But these people really need to chill the fuck out. I'm actually starting to feel sorry for the kid, and I really don't want to. The whole management thing does sound like some crazy tinfoil hat conspiracy, but I also do not doubt that it is very possible for PR to pull stunts like that. And if people are forcing a young man to hide his sexuality, this is just beyond cruel. It is heart-breaking. No one should ever have to hide his or her sexuality. If I found out my son was being forced to hide his sexuality for PR, I would hunt down Simon Cowell and shoot him.
But maybe it just simply is he is gay and hasn't accepted it. The kid is almost 21 years old . That does not mean he is completely sure of his sexuality. I'm almost 29 years old and I still have no concept of my sexuality, whether I am straight or bisexual, although I am fine with whatever it ends up being. Maybe he can't, or is not ready to accept it. But the way some Larry fans are acting, it's not going to help. You can't demand for someone to come out of the closet if he or she is not ready to do so. Knowing that fans will still support you can help, although will they support him if he is NOT dating Harry? And sure, it may help a fan who is having trouble accepting his or her own homosexuality. But it doesn't mean he still will be willing to accept that it is who he is. Or maybe there are people in his family who aren't okay with gay people. Who knows? We don't.
This is all hypothetically speaking, of course. I am in no way saying he definitely is. I don't need psycho fans or the princess himself coming after me.
I won't lie- I do look forward to hearing more on this. And the term "beard" makes me giggle.
I went to the Cheesecake Factory on Saturday and after an hour plus wait, we were finally seated. And I discovered my favorite meal, the ginormous grilled cheese, is not on the menu anymore. I was still able to get it, but I am so tired of every meal I like being taken off of the menu at restaurants. And grilled cheese is pretty much the simplest meal in history, so why get rid of it? I've had their pulled pork sandwich before and enjoyed it, but it would have been overwhelming at eight at night. I had their pumpkin cheesecake for the first time and oh my god, was it good.
And speaking of pumpkin, I need a pumpkin pie Blizzard fix soon.
ETA 10/17: Another BI went up yesterday. Why people are questioning this one as a different one makes no sense, when it clearly is a continuation of the first one.
Oh lord....if this happens, Tumblr, and Larry fans, will fucking EXPLODE.

LOL AWWWW. Wuv. Twue wuv. If I didn't know who these two were, just two random guys taking a picture at what looks like an airport, I'd definitely think they were a couple.
And this: 1D's Louis Tomlinson hosts charity football, looks great in uniform
Cheesus, him in that uniform....damn. I would. I so would. And I would hate myself every second of it. And great. Now I am all riled up and thinking of this picture as well.
ETA 11/11: Odd. That last blind item disappeared. After Bieber and Selena broke up. So I guess that one was probably about them?

I didn't want to believe it was true before, but
Dan Cathy, Chick-Fil-A President, On Anti-Gay Stance: 'Guilty As Charged'
Chick-Fil-A, I AM DISAPPOINT
Luckily, I don't eat there that often. I only go because I get coupons in the mail every so often for a free sandwich. Apparently I am in the minority, because I love Chick-Fil-A. I think their chicken sandwiches and waffle fries are good. I also like their hospitality. I have never received rude treatment at any of my local Chick-Fil-As. Everyone always goes out of their way.
I kept hearing it, and I suspected it was true due to their whole being closed on Sunday shtick, but I kept blinders up. But hey! Go ahead and be against gay marriage! If you want to stand there and preach that marriage should be between a man and a woman only, then by all means, be my guest! Allow for fat ass urinal cakes to wed troll-faced dumbasses for 72 days, because what does it matter? It's still between a man and a woman! God, I hate this world.
Boy, I wish I could get in office one day. I'd ban all marriage.
I just read some article over on Yahoo about that Olympic dude with no legs (too lazy to look up the name again) bagging some Russian model. Oh, look at that. What a surprise. Dude gets famous and the models start coming out of the woodwork, and then suddenly that will be all he will date. JUST LIKE SOMEONE ELSE I KNOW. Anyway, the comment section has my sides hurting from laughing. I am surely ensuring my trip to hell more and more.

The WTF Of The Day
A letter to Dear Abby from Sunday:
DEAR ABBY: I have a beautiful wife, a dog and an 8-year-old son I love to watch sports with. My son loves sports, but he has trouble accepting a loss. He'll take out his disappointment by beating the dog. My wife doesn't want to get rid of "Patches" because she has had him since college. I don't want to put my son through counseling because he said he'll hate me forever if I do. I'm afraid if the problem isn't controlled, my son's life goals may be affected. What can I do?
Let me get this straight- your little demon snowflake gets pissed off over a fucking sport and takes it out on the dog? And you do not want to put him through therapy because he will hate you forever? Um, he's 8 years old. How many kids tell their parents they will hate them forever if they do something? I mean, I don't recall ever doing so, but I knew plenty of people who did. And their parents made them do it anyway and they grew up just fine. Just make him go, because chances are, assuming you go to a psychiatrist, the child will be diagnosed with whatever disorder is en vogue and medicated to all holy hell, and you are off the hook for being a shitty parent.
Do you know what you should do? Go purchase a gun and shoot yourself in the balls, although I would be hesistant to believe that you even have a set anyway, judging by your letter. Morons like you should not be breeding, nor should have ever bred in the first place.

Oh you thought you finally heard enough of him on here, eh? Nah! He may have been dethroned (and which I offer my apologies for all of that; I don't know what the hell I was thinking, although I still do suspect I was going through a bit of mania during that time, because once the mania ended, the rest followed suit), but that doesn't mean I still won't enjoy making fun of him:

Mike 'The Situation' Sorrentino Slams 'Jersey Shore' Housemates Over Gay Implications
Ho, please. I leave you with this line from Brain Candy:
You are gay. You are a homosexual. The opposite of straight, you're gay. I know it. Your family knows it. DOGS know it! Everyone seems to know it except you.

Quote Of The Day
Audubon resident and author K. Scott Schaeffer, on gay marriage and religion:
The No. 1 reason is there aren't many Bible verses addressing it -- Homosexuality is not the mega issue of the Bible. It gets four Bible quotes, whereas greed and oppression of the poor gets 107 verses in the Bible. That's the mega issue of the Bible, and yet a lot of Christians today and our politics are supporting the greed and the interests of the wealthy and the powerful and their greed, but we're acting like homosexuality is issue No. 1.

Boehner Hate Crimes Position: Sexual Orientation A Choice But Religion Isn't
Religion isn't a choice?
WHAT on EARTH is this man babbling about? Even if it did end up turning out that sexual orientation is a choice (which it isn't), how is religion not a choice?
It's all good, though. By next week, he'll have some other bullshit to spew. Quite possibly the complete opposite of what he just said. Afterall, that seems like all many Republicans do. One week, they say one thing. The next week, it's the complete opposite. Or god forbid, they offend Rush Limbaugh. Then it consists of insult Rush Limbaugh, then apologize for it.

The CAPTION THIS Contest For May 5th
What the he....is that snake eating it's own ass?
Off topic....am I the only person on earth that is absolutely sick and tired of hearing about this Miss California chick already? She is entitled to not support gay marriage, of course, and lord knows I am not a fan of Perez Hilton by any means, but for God's sake....I know that lately it does not take much for any random moron to become the hot topic of the day in the news, but the bar seems to really have fallen. Now she has to be interviewed by Faux Noise and made the face of some anti-gay marriage group? It's not like she is the only person in America who is against gay marriage. What makes her so special? Oh. Right.

Quote Of The Day
Cajun Boy on something to do with homosexuals (I didn't watch the video):
Holy Jesus the faggots are coming! No really, the faggots are cuming! You see that dark cloud over the horizon? Well despite what you might think, that ain't no April shower baby! No, the "National Organization for Marriage" says that it's an army of diseased faggots rising out of the totally gay cornfields of Iowa holding their lathered-up, pock-marked cocks in their hands. They're coming to sodomize you and your children AND your beloved pets for good measure, IN YOUR BUTTS, because that's what these faggy faggots do, you see. And then, after they've all had their way with all of your tight little anuses, they're going to turn their man-hoses on you and drown you all in a horrific tidal wave of gay AIDS cum, and then you'll be left to die like assholes when you could have been shopping at Costco for industrial sized vats of Cheese-Whiz to engorge yourself on while you listen to Sean Hannity compare Barack Obama to Pol Pot or something.

Infections, Prayers, And A Dive Into OCD
iWork '09 Trojan Virus Infects at Least 20,000 Machines?
OMG, a Mac infection? It's actually possible? But....but I thought Macs were invincible!
Kidding aside, I know Macs can be affected. They're just lucky enough to have a relatively small amount of infections (exact number unknown- some sites list a few, others list around 40, and I have seen sites list Mac infections as high as a thousand) as compared to the- hold on, let me consult my last virus scan done Friday night oh, I don't know, 1,257,460 virus strains and unwanted programs. And since no virus scan is a hundred percent detectable, there could be a ton more. Also, add in the factor that Avira free does not detect spyware and the number soars even higher. A-Squared free has 2,600,785 malware signatures.
Ugh, one of these days I will be able to actually purchase Avira.
I watched that Lifetime movie Prayers For Bobby earlier and....god, that poor kid. And knowing it was based on a true story made it even more depressing. When the part came on when he jumps off the bridge, I was sobbing. Now I don't often cry at movies, but movies where suicide occurs I usually do. Because, real or not, I know and understand how that person feels and it is a horrible feeling to want to die. Jumping off a bridge is personally not a method I would ever consider using if it ever came down to it, but there have been plenty of times I have considered driving to a bridge and jumping off. That documentary, The Bridge, was also very sad. I just couldn't imagine jumping off of a bridge. Do you feel the impact of hitting the water or ground? Or does the falling alone at such a high velocity kill you? I would think that coming down at such a high speed would move your organs around, but I don't know. Physics is not one of my strong points.
I often say that if I were to ever get what I wanted that by the time I would get it, there would be some kind of treatment/cure for it and after this week, somehow I have a feeling that that could very well be possible. Good for others, certainly, but not for me, although I may think differently if it were to actually happen. I hate my brain. I really do. It's one thing if a random body part like the pancreas or immune system goes awry, but when the one thing that you have some kind of control over goes awry, it's horrible. And with my problem, it seems like the processes to control the mind have been destroyed. Like the brakes in the car were cut. I got into a fight with some douchebag with a psych degree over this before. He insists that thoughts, no matter how obsessive, can be controlled. I disagree. Maybe with some kind of outside help, but I definitely do not think one's own thoughts can be controlled entirely on their own.
Obsessive thoughts are like this- have you ever been in a pool and tried to push a beachball under the water? When you let go, it comes flying back up. And the further down you push it, the more force it will come back up with. That is exactly what it is like to try to supress obsessive thoughts. Or as most standard psych books use as an example- the Pink Elephant Experiment. Picture pink elephants. Now do not think of pink elephants. Bet you're thinking of them still, aren't you?
Aside from the lack of self-esteem and social phobia, I would say obsessive compulsive disorder is the next most mind crippling disorder I have. I believe having depression stems from the above three (as well as genetics). It's just so damn intrusive and it never lets up. With depression, I have good days and then I have days where I do not even want to get out of bed. With OCD, though, it just stays the same and worsens when that time of the month comes. I'm not kidding when I said I wish I could pull my brain out. There really are days where it is so bad, I just want to rip it out of my skull or jam an ice pick up my nose. And it's difficult to treat. Prozac was the only drug that helped it somewhat. The odd thing was the higher dosage I went, the worst it got. The only dosage that seemed to stabilize it a little bit was 20 mg and then that crapped out on me.
And what I think is remarkable proof of OCD has been produced. My sister's psychiatric nursing book states the following as evidence:
Brain scans have shown signs of it, like this:
Scan 1
Scan 2
Article
Dammit, maybe I should have had that brain scan done in 2006.
Wikipedia has more information. And yeah, I know Wiki can't be trusted all the time, but the sources seem pretty legitimate to me, so I am half-tempted to believe them. The part that makes me really curious is the streptococcal link. The link is a bit confusing, but when I was a kid, I had strep throat constantly. My tonsils were chronically swollen. If I went to the doctor just for a check-up, no pain or anything, but they would be swollen.
Now if I can just find a worthwhile, not half-assed treatment. Therapy didn't work, drugs didn't work, exercise only keeps me from losing my mind completely....psycho-surgery? HA! Am I fucking joking? That will be like pulling a completely impacted wisdom tooth! Why offer me a chance to be normal when they can keep on pumping me cock full of drugs?
Supposed proof of evolution, according to my dentist- my mom had 4 wisdom teeth, my sister had 2, and I have 1. The bastard hasn't bothered me yet and it better stay that way. And for some reason, I can never remember where it is. I'm pretty sure it's on the left side; I just can't remember if it is on the top or bottom, though.
Alright, I need to go to bed.
OMG, a Mac infection? It's actually possible? But....but I thought Macs were invincible!
Kidding aside, I know Macs can be affected. They're just lucky enough to have a relatively small amount of infections (exact number unknown- some sites list a few, others list around 40, and I have seen sites list Mac infections as high as a thousand) as compared to the- hold on, let me consult my last virus scan done Friday night oh, I don't know, 1,257,460 virus strains and unwanted programs. And since no virus scan is a hundred percent detectable, there could be a ton more. Also, add in the factor that Avira free does not detect spyware and the number soars even higher. A-Squared free has 2,600,785 malware signatures.
Ugh, one of these days I will be able to actually purchase Avira.
I watched that Lifetime movie Prayers For Bobby earlier and....god, that poor kid. And knowing it was based on a true story made it even more depressing. When the part came on when he jumps off the bridge, I was sobbing. Now I don't often cry at movies, but movies where suicide occurs I usually do. Because, real or not, I know and understand how that person feels and it is a horrible feeling to want to die. Jumping off a bridge is personally not a method I would ever consider using if it ever came down to it, but there have been plenty of times I have considered driving to a bridge and jumping off. That documentary, The Bridge, was also very sad. I just couldn't imagine jumping off of a bridge. Do you feel the impact of hitting the water or ground? Or does the falling alone at such a high velocity kill you? I would think that coming down at such a high speed would move your organs around, but I don't know. Physics is not one of my strong points.
I often say that if I were to ever get what I wanted that by the time I would get it, there would be some kind of treatment/cure for it and after this week, somehow I have a feeling that that could very well be possible. Good for others, certainly, but not for me, although I may think differently if it were to actually happen. I hate my brain. I really do. It's one thing if a random body part like the pancreas or immune system goes awry, but when the one thing that you have some kind of control over goes awry, it's horrible. And with my problem, it seems like the processes to control the mind have been destroyed. Like the brakes in the car were cut. I got into a fight with some douchebag with a psych degree over this before. He insists that thoughts, no matter how obsessive, can be controlled. I disagree. Maybe with some kind of outside help, but I definitely do not think one's own thoughts can be controlled entirely on their own.
Obsessive thoughts are like this- have you ever been in a pool and tried to push a beachball under the water? When you let go, it comes flying back up. And the further down you push it, the more force it will come back up with. That is exactly what it is like to try to supress obsessive thoughts. Or as most standard psych books use as an example- the Pink Elephant Experiment. Picture pink elephants. Now do not think of pink elephants. Bet you're thinking of them still, aren't you?
Aside from the lack of self-esteem and social phobia, I would say obsessive compulsive disorder is the next most mind crippling disorder I have. I believe having depression stems from the above three (as well as genetics). It's just so damn intrusive and it never lets up. With depression, I have good days and then I have days where I do not even want to get out of bed. With OCD, though, it just stays the same and worsens when that time of the month comes. I'm not kidding when I said I wish I could pull my brain out. There really are days where it is so bad, I just want to rip it out of my skull or jam an ice pick up my nose. And it's difficult to treat. Prozac was the only drug that helped it somewhat. The odd thing was the higher dosage I went, the worst it got. The only dosage that seemed to stabilize it a little bit was 20 mg and then that crapped out on me.
And what I think is remarkable proof of OCD has been produced. My sister's psychiatric nursing book states the following as evidence:
Functional neuroimaging techniques have shown abnormal metabolic rates in the basal ganglia and orbitalfrontal cortex of individuals with obsessive compulsive disorder (MacKenzie, 1994)And then there is also the whole serotonin theory as well.
Some individuals with obsessive compulsive disorder exhibit nonspecific electroencephalogram (EEG) changes. Some researchers have hypothesized that obsessive-compulsive disorder may represent a nonconvulsive epileptiform disorder (e.g., abnormal discharges in selective brain regions) or an abnormality in left-frontal brain functions (Kaplan & Sadock, 1989)
Brain scans have shown signs of it, like this:
Scan 1
Scan 2

Even More To Piss Me Off
SC Priest: No Communion For Obama Supporters
Oh yes. Let's talk about destroying lives and committing sins. Let's talk about the MALE priests who go around condemning homosexuality while they are touching little boys. Let's talk about what that does to "innocent beings".
If I have to hear one more person call Obama "pro-abortion", I am going to scream.
If abortion is to ever be outlawed, I say a law be made that every single person who opposes abortion is forced to become foster parents. They can take in all the children that are not able to be raised. They will also be required to pay for the years of therapy that a rape or incest victim will have to go through when they are forced to carry a child. They will be given a higher tax rate to pay for the prenatal care of an uninsured woman. Every single time a woman dies due to a deadly pregnancy, each and every one of the anti-abortion people will be penalized for allowing an innocent living, breathing person to die. They will also be taxed even more to keep the economy going; they want the world to be overpopulated, they can pay for it.
What do these idiot morons not understand when it comes to the health of a woman? If the baby is posing a threat to the mother, that means the mother cannot provide the baby properly as well. So instead of aborting the baby and allowing the mother to live, do these morons not realize that by allowing no abortion that two people could very well die instead of just one?
I often wonder what a radical Bible-thumping holier than thou Christian would do if there was a way to find out before it is born that their child is going to grow up homosexual.
I mean, homosexuality is such a sin and all....
