I don't know much about the Duggar family, other than they have nineteen children, which seems excessive - even for Catholics. I don't even know if they're Catholic, but there CERTAINLY must be some ridiculous religious aspect involved here.
What I don't get is why this family gets to have a television show and portray themselves as something special; simply by virtue of the fact that they have over-procreated. Maybe they couldn't afford to feed all those whining brats any other way. That would be the logical explanation. Follow the thread --- I'm going to drop a litter or two of children I can't afford to feed, and then support myself off the radical right wing who thinks there is something virtuous in my overactive uterus, and who also thinks anyone is remotely interested in this perfect example of a family gone insane via right to life values.
Nineteen children, and the mother is contemplating another pregnancy. Where is the interest? Other than from a purely psychological standpoint, there is nothing about Michelle Duggar that even approximates a sentient human being. She's just overly hormonal.
I would think her vagina is so worn out, she'd have a hard time getting pregnant unless she inserted a gallon milk jug filled with sperm up there and jumped on a trampoline for awhile.
Whatever. Give me a real reality television show --- like how billionaires and television executives get to steal money from people too stupid to read a book.

Damnit
I'm really no longer at an age where pop culture holds any charm for me; that meaning I'd rather listen to Billie Holiday than Beyoncé. In fact, (see previous post), Beyoncé holds absolutely no charm for me whatsoever, nor does her rich husband or her strange family.
So imagine my dismay when I found they were in New Orleans, eating at one of my favorite restaurants. So glad I missed them. Hopefully they'll be gone by the time I get there next week for my reservation.
Oh what AM I saying? Jetsetters never stay in one place very long. Collective, global sigh of relief.
I don't hate these people, I'm just sick to death of being exposed to every aspect of their lives. This is what drives them, I suppose, the public airing of their fabulous existence, their riches and their mansions. They get to feel superior and special and the masses get to support them by buying their wares - whatever those wares are. I don't own a single Jay-Z or Beyoncé tune. I don't feel I'm missing anything. And I imagine many people actually find them utterly fascinating, but I'm not one of them, and I think they'd be surprised at just whom they do impress.
It's probably a pretty unimpressive collection of people with mediocre musical tastes.
Of all the people in the world who do great things every day without ever experiencing a need to be adored or idolized, I sometimes completely wish that celebrities would just get over themselves and stay out of my town.

Barf-worthy
Excuse me, but why, and I say this with all humility, honesty and curiosity, but why does anyone give a f*ck why Solange Knowles attacked Jay-Z in an elevator?
Why is this news? Are we all so desperately boring, bored or brain dead that we actually wonder about this stuff?
Who gives a f*ck. Oops. Getting repetitive. Like my television news program.
But really.....who gives a f*ck why:
1. A spoiled power pair of celebrities consciously uncouples. Why don't they unconsciously drop f*cking dead? Do they honestly believe by labeling it in emotionally-correct new term, they are somehow more special than any other couple deciding they've seen enough of each other's souls to last them through eternity and the faster the divorce papers are filed, the f*cking better?
2. A billionaire power couple's relative swats and kicks at him in an elevator. So what. They should have been at a few family picnics I've attended in my life. This is normal behavior for a lot of families, even families who own their own formal wear. What's all the speculation and why does anyone care?
Americans have an unnatural obsession with power, money and celebrity. It's redundant. I don't want the fabulous life that gets one of my family members swinging at me in an elevator so I become grist for the "got no life" mill.
I don't want to decide who gets the London townhouse and who gets the "cottage" in the Hamptons.
I don't want to read about these people, be bombarded with their fabulous air brushed images or be exposed to their neurotic behaviors, ridiculous stretches of the English language, hear about their fabulous lifestyles and the money they spend on jewelry. These people are no happier than anyone else, and we only find them interesting because they have so much money.....for all the good it does them.
In short, Americans need to find something worthwhile to be concerned with; like air quality, global warming, poverty, clean water, anything. They need to come to some meaningful realization; anything but Beyoncé, Jay-Z and Solange in an elevator and a videotape that immortalizes that which should just be so much bull$hit in an otherwise dull day.

Climate Change
I moved out of Wisconsin because it has a horrible climate at least 60% of the time. I effected my own climate change by moving to Louisiana, and I do not regret this change in latitude. I would insert all of the southern jokes here, but for the most part, I find the people extraordinarily friendly and polite, unlike Wisconsinites who are frozen in frigid and don't ever thaw out. The politics are atrocious but they are in Wisconsin, as well.
But the really awful thing is that actual climate change is occurring at such an accelerated rate, and 1 in 4 Americans don't believe it's true. I guess one in four is good odds at the craps table, but one in four stupid people in America is almost more than I can fathom --- and I can fathom a $hitload of Stupid.
One in four Americans don't believe in climate change or global warming, despite alarming evidence to the contrary.
Now someone please tell me how we can have such incredibly ignorant people here and be the leader of the free world. It's a scam, I tell you. Americans have been repeating that mantra --- leader of the free world -- for so long, we actually believe it ourselves and have the rest of the world believing it.
It's a scam. America SUCKS. Get the word out.

Puh-leeze!
Okay, so a simple man, a pope, but really nothing more than a simple man, decides to sanctify two other popes.
Anyone else see this as ludicrous? Ridiculous? Taking liberties? Elevating oneself to God status?
I really don't get the false gods of the catholic church. I really don't get the catholic church. But that's alright. It's just that my spiritual power tells me to respect other people's beliefs and religious rites, but I find this very difficult when it comes to catholics.
What would happen if the pope claimed the environment to be a saint --- which it is since it sustains all of us. Would people have more respect for the environment then? Would BP pay their claims for the gulf disaster they created?
Since I'm on a rant already - let me just ask the question why BP is allowed to continue to operate in the United States? What is wrong with this country? Why haven't we completely doused all BP executives in crude oil and forced them and their offspring live that way for the next 100 years? It's karmic to do so. Of course, when you're an oily grease ball to begin with, I guess it wouldn't matter.
And on that note, why is there always a catfish lawyer out to make an illegal buck, precluding the people who legitimately deserve to be compensated from the gulf disaster from collecting damages. Catfish lawyers - the bottom feeders of society, give all attorneys a bad name. It's a shame that predatory people are ALWAYS surrounding us.
The popes feed off the fear of the common man not unlike sharks in the water.
The catfish lawyers feed off the misery of the common man.
The politicians feed off the public tax trough, and all become pigs, despite their best intentions.
We are a disgusting example of a life form. And I think mother earth is going to get rid of us very soon.

Puke-Worthy
Of all the news stories that make me want to puke --- and I live in America ---- so there is no shortage; the headline that made me the most sick was having Scott Walker referred to as one of the most influential people in America.
Influential to f*cking whom? Give me a f*cking break. Can you see that the f*ck word just keeps reappearing in this essay because anyone who thinks a dumb f*ck like Scott F*cking Walker has any ability to influence anyone with a f*cking brain, you're dead f*cking wrong.
Scott Walker is a puppet, a pawn, a Koch-sucker and a f*ckhead. He is the shining poster boy for tea party politics in this nation --- nothing more. He has never had an original f*cking thought in his head and his only talent is to f*ck everything up beyond f*cking repair.
F*ck Scott Walker. F*ck the f*cking stupid Americans who voted for this f*ck face and put him in office. F*ck the Koch's for buying the government they want.
We're all f*cked if Scott Walker is a f*cking influential person.

Cliches Run Rampant in the South
I just watched the Baton Rouge evening news, and had to laugh at the bourbon swilling-southern talking, Hollywood Screen Test perfect epitome of a Louisiana politician talk about how he doesn't care what the rest of the country does, there will be NO relaxation of marijuana penalties here in the State of Louisiana.
Hysterical. I couldn't even get mad; this guy was such a cliché. He was so typical of what you think of when you think of a southern politician. The only thing missing was the grift cash hanging out of his pockets.
I was never a big pot smoker, although I had my moments. I don't necessarily believe that America will be a better place if all the stoned people are now legally stoned. I do believe that the legalization of marijuana would get this country out of debt in less than a decade. I don't understand why republicans don't jump on that bandwagon, since all they do is cry about debt. I guess their idea of paying off the national deficit is best served by doing it off the back of the ever-shrinking middle class. republicans love to torture and feel superior. How are they ever going to torture pot smoking deficit paying stoners?
DANGER DANGER GATEWAY DRUG!!!!!
Aye Carumba --- seriously? Stoners generally are content to live in a little fog; to enhance their appreciation of music; to get the most out of a chocolate chip cookie or a movie (which they'll see twice because they can't quite remember it after just one viewing). Of all the dumb things I did because I had smoked marijuana, I never once thought about going out to buy heroin or methamphetamine. This argument is as old as Kentucky bourbon.
Again, I fall back on my standby stance of what is wrong with America today. Rich, old white men in positions of power. Let's take their bourbon away!!!!!
Let's say no old white men over 60 and whom are seated politicians can have bourbon anymore until the marijuana laws are normalized. Watch how FAST that freakin' happens!
