The Unofficial Badmovies.org Random Thought Thread!

As much as I appreciate being an American, my country and its citizens frighten me greatly at times. 

I attended a Tax Day Tea Party today, because (while I don't have the strongest grasp on economics) I feel like spending the rest of the world's GDP is perhaps not the best way to fix the American economy.

As a big fan of the American Constitution, I was heartened to see so many people out voicing their concerns with the government. 

On the other hand, where were they when the Constitution was being subverted and abused by previous administrations?

Is it all just bread and circuses until we get hit in the wallet? I'd like to think Americans are better than that, but sometimes I wonder. 

Ah well, forgive me this random thought -- I hope I don't spark any unpleasant political debates -- but this idealistic college student needed to get it off his chest.

I've never seen a bird sleeping.  In my entire life.  Do they even sleep?  Where do they sleep?

I had a parakeet that slept once and awhile.  They kind of turn their head around to their back and rest it there.  Other than that, in the wild I don't seem them snoozing much.

I'm thinking that repeatedly staying up late might actually be the cause of me being tired during the day. Who knew?

I'm sitting at my desk spraying Fun Cheez (that's generic aresol processed cheese food from the Dollar General store!) on saltine crackers and eating them up -yum yum!

A killjoy coworker just told me that was "worse than smoking cigarettes!".

Can this be true?


(I'll be back soon. I'm going for a smoke.  )

It's taco day here at the prison. So tacos for lunch, , but without cheese, or sour cream, or guacamole, or onions, and the meat is 50/50 ground beef and TVP, and the shells are paper-thin, and the re-fried beans are pretty bland, as is the rice, and I think they forgot the onions when they were making the salsa, and they use about a third as much seasoning on the meat as was needed, , but, , it's one of the better meals they serve.

I've noticed being alive is one of the leading causes of death in people.

I have come to the conclusion that sometimes violence IS the answer.

Not even close. I bet you'd have to eat several pounds every day for many years to get even close to the damage cigarettes cause. I'm not saying the stuff is necessarily good for you, but it just doesn't even approach it. People are idiots, and will say anything to try and look smarter or make someone change their actions. Some people just get off on trying to convince people of whatever they can, those people need to get a life.

The MRE's they gave me a ROTC taste better than my cafeteria food at college. Methinks I'm going to buy my own food next year.

Do bugs poop?

[Jack]

I believe they do, it's just very, very small poop. 

In related news, one time there was this large round thing at the bottom of our driveway.  I gave it a little kick with my foot.  Well, it didn't LOOK like a pile of horse s***.  Upon further reflection, I probably should have known what it was.
