I'm pretty sure that you've probably seen this posted, over and over again. The words "Bullying" and "Bully" are being tossed around a little too loosely, in my opinion. Don't get me wrong, I do NOT advocate REAL bullying, but a lot of the actions that are now labeled as "bullying", are not really "bullying"! That is the definition of a Bully. Cyber bullying also has to be a repeated action. So if someone was to post a single comment about someone, or a threat toward them, one time, it isn't cyber bullying. REAL bullying isn't right. When someone REPEATEDLY attacks (verbally OR physically) another person, for no tangible reason, THAT IS bullying. And in no way, shape, or form, is that okay. They are using the anti-bullying platform to (in effect) bully our children into being friends with everyone (if they like the person or not). Children are forced to include everyone they know into, pretty much, everything they do. In my opinion, that is wrong. There are also those times when just the facts are stated, and they can be misconstrued as "bullying". Sometimes.....you're just calling it as you see it. That's all I got this time! Please follow my blog if I made you think, or laugh, or eat ramen noodles, or ANYTHING....and feel free to comment if you agree, or disagree, or just want to discuss the possibility that unicorns exist! I'm not here to judge you! But I do have an opinion on a LOT of things, and if you can help me understand yours, in a logical and reasonable fashion....you might just change my mind! But probably not. I love you, and I hope you have a glorious day!

There are a number of groups in the US who truly believe that they're doing the right thing for US citizens. Allow me to break it down for you: ***Disclaimer*** This is MY opinion! You are allowed & encouraged to create your own! I am not here to tell you how to think, act, or what to believe!
About 70% of them are very extreme in their belief that the "government is only looking out for us", and are willing to give up their rights (and push others to do the same), for a false sense of security. 39% of US citizens believe that we should retain our rights, but they also believe that the government is basically infallible. They don't want gun control, but wish to allow control in other aspects of our lives. (The Right) About 50% of these (or should I say "Real 'Mericans?) are so opposed to ANY government interference, that they're blind to anything else. They believe that abortion is an abomination. They believe all immigrants (especially those who practice Islam) are "terrorists"...(even though they know nothing (or very little) about the Islamic faith, except for what is spoon fed to them). These people wish to close off our borders. They will wave the bible around, throwing out random quotes. They CLAIM to be "awake", yet they are blind to any other theory that isn't exactly the same as theirs. They ALSO want to strip away our rights (especially amendments 1 & 4, in certain situations). (The Far Right) Both groups are for total government control, as long as it goes along with their own personal agendas. 15% of US citizens just don't care either way. They SHOULD, but I suppose it'd be too much of an effort...so they just go with the flow. Then there's the other 6%. This is where I fit in, (if I have to fit in anywhere). Luckily, this 6% is rapidly growing as more and more people realize what is actually going on I DO believe in separation of church & state...even though I am not religious. But who am I to judge? I DO believe that the Bill of Rights should NOT be altered under any circumstances. These are NOT privileges or "gifts" from the government that can be taken away. These are basic human rights, granted to any American citizen and CANNOT be taken away. They try to twist and spin it to look like they're doing it for our "best interest"...but we all know that's not the case. I DO believe in the freedom to practice any religion...again, I'm not religious, but I don't judge. (I mean seriously, have you read about Scientology?? Batshit crazy to me, but to each his own, I guess). Most importantly, I believe that US citizens have the right to know what is going on in their own government. The false flags keep piling up. The blame keeps getting pointed at innocent citizens (who mysteriously die in custody, or are just killed on sight)...the majority of whom practice Islam...which is a PEACEFUL RELIGION!!! (Seriously guys, saying all Muslims are extremists is like saying all Christians are Jehovah's Witnesses.) Our country was founded on the ideas that people could practice what they want, without prejudice. Protect and arm themselves, not only from other citizens, but from our own government. Our citizens should be considered innocent until proven guilty...and the burden of proof is on the state. We do not have to prove our innocence, THEY have to prove our guilt. Private property should NOT be searched without warrants, or probable cause...and if neither is available, citizens have the right to tell them to fuck off. This goes for seizure of private property as well. If you film something on your phone, the police can ASK that you turn it in...but they cannot FORCEFULLY take it. (Illegal search & seizure, 4th Amendment) Free speech should not be hindered in any way...even if it's in a "No Free Speech Zone"...which, by the way, is a totally made up thing. They do not exist. (Well, they do...but they shouldn't). Any US citizen who is being questioned, can decline the right to speak, as to not incriminate him/herself. Did you know that the Fifth Amendment is no more? Now remaining silent is the equivalent to an admission of guilt. Thanks Congress. The Declaration of Independence is available if you need anymore toilet paper. You've obviously burned through the Bill of Rights.

They really believe that it's "to protect and serve". Now that may be true, but to protect who? To serve who? The majority of people think it's to protect and serve the general public...civilians. That is WRONG.
"In 1856, the U.S. Supreme Court (South v. Maryland) found that law enforcement officers had no duty to protect any individual. Their duty is to enforce the law in general. More recently, in 1982 (Bowers v. DeVito), the Court of Appeals, Seventh Circuit held, "...there is no Constitutional right to be protected by the state against being murdered by criminals or madmen. It is monstrous if the state fails to protect its residents... but it does not violate... the Constitution." Later court decisions concurred: the police have no duty to protect you." ( http://www.informationliberation.com/?id=34199 ) So really, the police can literally (and have) stand right next to you while you are being attacked, and have absolutely NO responsibility to stop the attack. The ONLY thing that they are required to do is detain your attacker AFTER you file a complaint...even if they witness the attack themselves. The police are ONLY required to "protect" themselves, and that is all. (Of course, having a shit ton of money always helps, and can buy police protection) The "serve" part is a whole other story. It's not the literal definition, as many believe. In fact, it is the "legalese" definition, and only refers to serving paperwork (tickets, summons, warrants, etc). So what does the police department actually have to do for you? Not much. They must accept and file complaints and reports, serve legal documents, and make arrests ONLY if there is a complaining (or deceased) victim. Another little known fact, assault on a police officer is defined as "unwanted TOUCHING in any way". This INCLUDES if you attempt to defend yourself, while you are under attack BY A POLICE OFFICER! So basically, they can do WHATEVER they want to you, and if you so much as TOUCH them, YOU WILL BE CHARGED WITH ASSAULT!! How fucked up is that?? The fucked up reality is that, as civilians, we have very few rights, when it comes to the police. The Miranda Rights are a joke, and when they ask "Do you understand these rights as I have read them to you?"...it's actually in legalese. What they have ACTUALLY said to you is this: "Do you stand under me?" meaning "Do you grant me authority over you so that you then obey and answer to me, and whatever I tell you to do?" ( http://knowledgeispower-uk.weebly.com/legalese---acts--statutes.html ) (I know that it's a UK site, but the same applies in the US) The whole point to all this is...POLICE ARE NOT THERE TO PROTECT/ASSIST/AID YOU IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM! Their sole responsibility is to protect the GOVERNMENT (town/state/local). THAT IS ALL! They will lie, cheat, beat the innocent, steal, rape, murder, you name it...with absolutely NO consequences. Why? Because the police will protect their own, because they are a BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT THEY ARE SWORN TO PROTECT!! The rights and needs of civilians will ALWAYS come secondary. And this is why WE need to PROTECT ourselves. Not just from civilians who wish to do us harm, but from the POLICE who will do whatever they wish, in order to protect their employer...the government. (Side note, there are a few officers who are not totally fucked up, but they are very few, and far between) Hellllloooooo!!! Long time, no blog, huh? Missing me yet?
Anywho...I'm scrolling through my newsfeed on Facebook (which I REALLY need to stop doing so much because it usually pisses me off a great deal), and I see this ridiculousness from the morons over at News 12. Here's a link to the actual posting: http://www.facebook.com/News12LI/posts/10151436343658551:0 (You do need a Facebook account to see it, but the above picture is a screenshot of the original post) Link to the SC Sheriff's "Test, Don't Guess" program page.
http://www.suffolkcountyny.gov/sheriff/CommunityPrograms/DrugTestingInitiative.aspx (Note they changed the "Scared Straight" program to the "Y.E.S. Tour") So, here's my opinion on the subject: [DISCLAIMER: THIS IS MY OPINION. IT IS BASED ON MY PERSONAL EXPIERENCES WITH DRUG TESTING, TEEN DRUG USE, AND THE PARENT'S APPROACH (as well intended it may be)] First of all....THEY'RE NOT "FREE"!! It's a waste of tax money. If you think your kid is doing something, and you want to "Test, Not Guess"....PAY FOR IT YOURSELF!! You can buy home drug tests at any pharmacy, and health insurance covers most rehabs/drug testing. Don't make ME pay because you can't trust your kid, or you can't just shine a flashlight in your kids eyes to check for pupil dilation. Second...IT'S NOT GOING TO MAKE ANYTHING DIFFERENT!!! I was drug tested, pretty much every week, from when I was 13-17....and I only tested dirty one time. I SHOULD have tested dirty EVERY time, but there are ways to get around it. So your kid tests dirty. Then what?? You get into a huge fight, they: (A) Stop talking to you about ANYTHING. (B) No longer trust you, and feel like you're "invading their privacy". (C) Let you yell, scream, and threaten them, and do the same crap they were doing in the first place. (D) Decide they're going to "run away" (E) ALL OF THE ABOVE And what are you supposed to do? (A) Put them on PINS probation, so you kid can keep violating, and get sent to a state house, and/or Juvie? (B) Kick their ass so they "learn a lesson", and possibly get reported to CPS? (C) Do nothing, and possibly get reported to CPS anyway, for child neglect? (Only now, they can prove it) (D) Throw your kid in rehab? (E) Put your kid on "lockdown", so they can run away, and you have no idea where they are, if they're alive or dead, who they're with, what they're doing.....? (F) All of the above? If YOU think that YOU'RE kid is doing something then YOU need to take your kid to FAMILY COUNSELING, and try to reestablish a good rapport with your children. The counselor WILL do a drug test if you request it. The most important thing is to take a look at what you're doing. If you're constantly drinking in front of your kids, they will probably drink too. If you're smoking weed all the time, and think your kids don't know...I got news for you...they do, and they will smoke too (probably steal it from you!). If you're at home eating Valium/Xanax all day so you can "deal", they will too! The most important thing of all is to keep the communication lines open between you and your kids. Granted, this gets nearly impossible when they're teenagers, but it can still be done. And a little ass whooping (NOT BEATING!!!) goes a long way. I have been unable to find exactly how much of the taxpayer's money they are wasting on this program, but I have heard up to $2000 for every 100 tests*.
*This may not be accurate. I searched for the budget allotment for this program, but was unable to find it. I wouldn't be surprised though. At home drug tests range from $7.88-$47.78, and can be a simple 5 panel cup piss test, to a hair follicle test.
http://www.walgreens.com/store/c/at-home-drug-test-kit/ID=prod368689-product http://www.walmart.com/c/kp/home-drug-test-kits I'm sure they have MASSIVELY inflated the costs of the "free" drug tests (probably to cover up some of their insanely high saleries, which have FINALLY been brought to the public's attention) The most important thing is to talk to your kids, and raise them correctly. Lead by example! If you're doing a decent job, you should be able to trust them. Still have your doubts, just use a flashlight! If their pupils are little pin pricks, even after you remove the light from their eyes, they're using some kind of depressant (opiates, alcohol, etc...). If their eyes are largely dilated, even while you're shining the light into their eyes, they're using some kind of stimulant (cocaine, meth, etc...). And if you shine the light into their eyes, and they scream something like, "FUUUUUCCCKKK!!! THERE'S A LASER BURNING A HOLE INTO MY FACE!!!!", and start trying to rip their face off....they're probably on some kind of hallucinogenic drug (LSD, PCP, etc.) Love you all!!!!!! xoxoxo To all apprentice hopefuls & kitchen wizards:
If you are seriously trying to get into this industry because it's "easy work", and "fast money"...I've got news for you, dumbasses. First of all, IT IS NOT EASY!! When you are a LEGITIMATE tattoo artist, you are not ONLY an artist. You need to do MANY different jobs. Once you begin a consultation with a client, you have now become a MIND READER. You have to basically take what they have in their mind, get the image into your head, and turn it into a "tattoo friendly" piece, that will look right on their body contours, and (if it's a coverup), how to use the right coloring and shading techniques in order to eliminate the existing tattoo. Now that they've magically beamed the image they want into your head, it's time for you to, maybe, do a little research, and get to drawing. THIS DOES NOT MEAN TRACING ANOTHER ARTIST'S CUSTOM TATTOO WORK!!! The ONLY TIMES that it is acceptable to trace something is when: A- It's a flash piece B- It's a portrait/photo realism piece. (And this should be traced ONLY from copies of photos...not other artist's work) C- It's in a sketchbook, that you have purchased (or your coworker, client, etc.), where there are no disclaimers in said sketchbook to NOT RECREATE the work done within. D- You have obtained WRITTEN CONSENT by the original artist to use his/her work. ANYTHING ELSE IS TATTOO THEFT, AND YOU COULD BE SUBJECT TO A LAWSUIT, DUE TO COPYRIGHT LAWS. Or, at the very least, be subject to ridicule, and basically blackballed by the tattoo community. It's always better to draw your own pieces. If you cannot do this...you probably should just stop tattooing right now. You NEED to have a strong drawing background in order to become a good tattooist. Ok, so now you've got your (hopefully) original piece drawn up. Time to show it to your client. If your client loves it, and is good to go, THAT'S GREAT! But, you should probably prepare yourself for a very heavy critique, and numerous explanations as to why some things don't transfer well to tattoos, how some things won't hold up well over time, how "adding something" could make it look too busy/cluttered, why certain parts are necessary to cover up the older piece (if it's a cover up), and you may need to redraw the piece (if your client requests you to do so). Do NOT catch an attitude, or treat your client like they are annoying you, or like they're bothering you. It's your JOB to create a physical reproduction of what they have envisioned in their mind! (unless they're giving you free reign) So STOP WITH THE ATTITUDE, BUDDY! Remember, you're tattooing it, but they will have it on their skin for the rest of their lives. That being said...in this profession, THE CLIENT IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT!! Yes, they have to be happy with the tattoo you create for them, but most clients don't really understand what makes a great tattoo, or what will make a tattoo stand the test of time. This isn't because they're "stupid"...it's because they're not a tattooist! It's your JOB to explain why certain things won't work. It's your JOB not to trace the picture they brought you from Google...but to draw something similar, and with your own style!! So, again...don't catch an attitude. So now your finally going to tattoo your client. This is the easy part, right? WRONG!! For those of you reading this who DO tattoo, you'll know exactly what I'm talking about here. First of all, if your client's an asshole, be ready to slap a fake smile on your face for a couple hours, because you will have to deal with them the entire time you're tattooing them (duh...it's not like they can leave their arm/leg/whatever behind, so you can work on it, and come and pick it up later!). I've been pretty lucky so far. The majority of my clients are friggin awesome. If you're not a "people person", or you're super shy, or YOU'RE an asshole, or anything like that...don't even think about taking up tattooing. It's not for you. You have to deal with every type of personality in this profession, and if you're antisocial or something like that...well, you're not going to go very far. You're also going to get the "squirmers". You know, the people who can't sit still while you're tattooing them? You know what? SAY SOMETHING! They might not even be aware that they're moving that much! Need someone to move, so you can reach the area you're trying to tattoo easier? SAY SOMETHING!! You cannot expect them to know what YOU need them to do! If you're thinking that tattooing isn't a very physical job...you're totally wrong. It's EXTREMELY hard on your body! Those long 6-7+ hour sessions are MURDER on your body!! Your back will kill you. Your neck will be sore as hell. Your arms will be sore and tired. Your hands will hurt. Your fingers will either be numb, or killing you. Your shin and feet will be in pain from using the footswitch. You will be doing the same motions, again and again for hours. You will be twisting your body up in the most awkward positions, and staying like that for hours. Basically, your entire body will be sore and exhausted. I can't even tell you how many times I've come home from a long day, and felt like I was going to collapse on the floor as soon as I walked in my house. There ARE very important things you must do to help with this. A- Stretch!!! This is insanely important! Before you start tattooing, stretch. During the tattoo, stretch! After the tattoo...STRETCH!!! Focus on stretches that focus on the back, neck, and hands...but be sure to do full body stretches as well. B- Take a break! Now I'm not saying take a break every 15 min, but if you need a break, TAKE ONE! C- Do exercises that build up your muscle strength! Do full body workouts, and exercises that specifically focus on your core, back, and hands. D- NSAIDs are good for pain, and won't get you all twisted in the head like a narcotic. Use them if you have to, I like Motrin, but don't overuse them. Still sounding like "easy money"? It's not. Far from it. And this only covers the drawing, tattooing, and the "dealing with clients" aspects of tattooing. There's a whole lot more to it than just that. Maybe I'll go over that another time. But for now, I think I'll call it a night. You're friendly, neighborhood tattoo artist, Laura xoxo Ok...for those of you who don't really know me, I am not a very political person. Yeah, I vote in the presidential elections...that's about the totality of my political involvement. But recently, there's been so many things going on that are just plain fucked up, and wrong, that I can't just sit by and keep my mouth shut. I tried, but I can't. And you know what? IT PISSES ME THE FUCK OFF! I don't want to have to worry if there's even GOING to be an America for my children to grow up with, and right about know, I am extremely worried. I am NOT a Republican. I am NOT a Democrat. I am also far from being a total moron, which is apparently more than I can say about most of the assholes who are running this country right now. I've been going off on rants on Facebook, but that's pretty much the whole reason I started this blog in the first place...TO STOP GOING OFF ON RANTS ON FACEBOOK! So, Ill still be doing the regular crap...the random rants, movie reviews, tattoo stuff, kid stuff, all that, but I will be posting a lot of political crap too. If that's not your cup of tea, don't read it. A lot of the stuff I will post will likely be mostly my opinions that are based on actual facts. I will provide links (if possible). If you agree with what I have to say, that's great. If you don't, that's great too! I'm absolutely not attempting to tell you how to think/feel/act. I am merely sharing MY point of view on this clusterfuck of fuckery that has become our government. People don't understand that when they make an appt. with me via text/email/phone....whatever....they're not guaranteed a spot. IF I'm free at that time, I will probably hold the chair for 10 min (ex. asked for appt. @7, didn't bother to show up till 7:20.....and you're pissed because now you have to wait? Sucks). If you want ANYTHING drawn up in advance, a deposit of $40 (min, more for large pieces) should be left, and a work order form should be filled out, which includes a detailed description of what you want done, where, size, color/no color, amt. deposit left, name & phone number. The client can also book an appt. at the same time, as long as there has been a deposit left that is comparable to the amount of time I would have wasted should you decide not to show up. If you leave no deposit for a drawup, but leave a $30 deposit for an appointment, your work will NOT be drawn up in advance......BECAUSE YOU DIDN'T LEAVE A DEPOSIT FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE!!!
Also, STOP ASKING FOR PRICE QUOTES VIA TEXT/EMAIL/INSTAGRAM/FACEBOOK/PHONE!! Especially if I've never met you! I have no idea how your skin takes ink, how big your leg/neck/arm...whatever, is! I cannot give you a price without a face to face consultation. And if it's your first time coming to me, don't ask me for a "hook up". I DON'T KNOW YOU! Repeat clients often get better prices because they've proven to me that they'll continue to come back, and most of them bring me new clients. And tipping....do not even get me started on that. People will tip the person who carried their food from their car to their house, but won't tip a person who's put in hours and hours of work into something permanently on your body?? REALLY??!! In short, if there is no face to face consultation (clients from out of the area are exempt from this, but pictures & dimensions of the space you want covered must be provided), no work order filled out, no deposit left....the client should have no expectation of anything drawn up, or a guaranteed time. (Of course, I do have some exceptions to this rule....long time clients, friends, family.....etc.) I take deposits in cash, money orders, and via pay pal. A copy of the work order is ALWAYS given, as proof of receipt. I don't know why this is such a difficult concept to grasp. You don't simply walk into an OR and say, "OK, got time to do that operation for me?" If you want to book a hotel room in the Hamptons in July, you don't just show up and hope they have one open. You call ahead and reserve it by putting down a deposit! I just don't get it. So...unless you are one of the few exceptions to the rules, don't just text me with a picture and say "I want this", then when you decide to show up, you're pissed because I didn't draw anything up, and someone's in the chair. If you didn't leave a deposit, don't expect anything. This isn't a "hobby" for me, this is my career. It's how I pay my bills, feed my kids, and live! I wouldn't ask you to work for free? Why should you do that to me? Little side note:
This isn't directed at anyone specifically. Just saying. If You Do Anything of These Things While Driving...I'm the One Losing My Mind Behind You!!!!1/11/2013 Well hello there!!!! Long time no blog...I know, life's been hectic. I missed you! Let's get down to business. If you drive a car, then you've probably been stuck behind some ass-clown who has done (or ALL) of these things that make you want to LOSE YOUR ENTIRE MIND!!!!! Yes we're also guilty of doing some of these things too...nobody's perfect, but most of us don't do this crap on a regular basis. Soooooo, without further ado, here we go. THIS MYSTICAL SYMBOL ON THE DASHBOARD IS CALLED A GODDAMN TURN SIGNAL!!!!! This is PROBABLY the most annoying thing that people do (or I should say DON'T DO!). Why? Why would you not use your turn signal when you're turning???? WHY!?!?? It is NOT difficult to use. In the example picture, the driver is making a right turn/merge. By hitting the turn signal, he is letting other drivers around him that he will be turning/merging right. Apparently this is a such a complicated thing to grasp, because 75% of the time, there is MANY people who I'm driving behind who can't seem to understand how to use this magical handle on the side of their steering wheel. FOR FUCK'S SAKE PEOPLE! YOU CAN LITERALLY JUST BUMP IT UP/DOWN WITH THE SIDE OF YOU HAND!!! IT IS NOT A DIFFICULT PROCESS!!! If you're making a right, push it UP! If you're making a left, push it DOWN!!! I cannot even begin to ESTIMATE how many times someone in front of me either slammed on their brakes to turn, or just cut me off...WITHOUT SIGNALING! The whole point is to prevent accidents. I do NOT want to rear end someone because they couldn't be bothered to use their signal (and I almost have MANY times!).You don't even have to worry about turing it off!! It will shut off by itself after you make the turn! (You DO have to turn it off if you've merged...) While I'm on the subject of turn signals...WHAT THE FUCK IS THE DEAL WITH PEOPLE PUTTING THEIR DIRECTIONAL, LIKE A 5 MILES BEFORE THEY NEED TO TURN????!!! That's ALMOST as bad as not using them at all!!! I still have NO idea when (or IF) you're actually going to make that turn!!! Stop it!!! Just stop it right now! This one make me ABSOLUTELY insane. If you're driving in a 45mph zone, WHY ARE YOU GOING 30MPH??!!!? I cannot stand this. I feel like i going to lose my ENTIRE MIND when this happens!!!! WHY???? Do you NOT have to be somewhere on time? Do you NOT give 2 shits if the person behind you it running late, or just has to pee really REALLY bad, or WHATEVER!!! There is no need to be going 15mph UNDER THE SPEED LIMIT!!! Especially on main roads, and DEFINITELY not in the middle of the night when the person behind you just tattooed for 9 hours straight, is dead tired, in a shitty mood, and just wants to get her ass home and go to sleep!!! Trust me when I say that there have been MULTIPLE times this happened to me, and I gave serious thought to following them to their destination, and CURSING THEM THE FUCK OUT!!! It's just madness. Another thing with the whole "speed" thing is, WHY DO PEOPLE FEEL THE NEED TO RIDE UP MY BUMPER WHEN I'M ALREADY GOING A DECENT SPEED! If the speed limit is 45mph, and I'm going 55mph....THERE IS NO NEED TO BE UP MY ASS!!! GET OFF ME!!! I will slam on my breaks for no reason whatsoever, causing you to rear-end me. You better have some damn good insurance!! Because you're buying me a new car!! Ok, when you get to a four-way stop sign, and there are other cars at one, or ALL of the other three stop signs....LEARN THE RULES TO THIS!!! They're NOT THAT COMPLICATED!!!! Whoever gets to the intersection first, GOES FIRST!!! If you all show up at the same time, the person farthest to the right goes first. You had to know this at one point in time, if you have your license. IT'S ON THE GODDAMN TEST!!!! These same rules apply to a three-way stop sign. So stop giving me evil looks if I get to an intersection before you, stop, and go. I HAVE THE RIGHT OF WAY!!! This is the last one. I promise. It's also the one that pisses me off the most. You see that little symbol on the left? That means that your high beams are on. When you are using your high beams, and either approaching an oncoming car, or someone is about to pass you on the highway...TURN THEM OFF!!!!! I have been blinded a gazillion times because people have no sense to turn them off! Just tonight on my way home, it happened to me TWICE! The second time, I almost drove right off the road. It's just common courtesy. If I'm driving behind you on the highway, and start passing you, and you have your high beams on, and you don't turn them off, I WILL slow down and drive right next to the rear of your car, blasting you with mine. So you get pissed off? GOOD!!! That's the whole point!!! Your regular lights aren't bright enough for you to see at night? Then you need to get them switched out because I sure as shit don't want your brights blinding me. YOU HAVE ALREADY PISSED ME OFF!!! That's all I got this time! Please follow my blog if I made you think, or laugh, or eat ramen noodles, or ANYTHING....and feel free to comment if you agree, or disagree, or just love kittens! I'm not here to judge you! But I do have an opinion on a LOT of things, and if you can help me understand yours, in a logical and reasonable fashion....you might just change my mind! But probably not.
I love you, and I hope you have a glorious day! You can find me on twitter: www.twitter.com/nytatt2chick Or the book of faces: www.facebook.com/nytatt2chick So I'm messing around on Instagram. Love that friggin app. But anyway, I make a comment, and some fucking jackoff gets all over sensitive, and apparently thinks that I'm talking directly to them (how could I?! I don't fucking know you!!), and feels the need to say something stupid like:
"That's really not cool/funny to say that. I'm insulted. Wah wah wah!!!" (Ok, at the end, I was just picturing them crying) WHY DO PEOPLE FEEL THAT COMMENTS MADE ON PICTURES OR POSTS, THAT THEY DIDN'T PUT UP, ARE DIRECTED AT THEM?!!!!??!! Am I the only one who gets confused by this?? If I don't fucking know you, and I'm commenting on someone else's shit, how in the fuck am I talking to you??? Someone explain this to me? It's especially confusing when the person who decides that they want to start a bitch fight with me (Which they will NEVER win! I'm not really a bitch...I can be if the situation calls for it....but in these situations, I just find it hilarious!), doesn't know the person who's picture/post I commented on in the first place!!! Like they feel the need to be the fuckin sentinel of the Internet....standing up for people who gets deragotory comments on their shit. (Would make a pretty lame, but relevant superhero. Internet Watch Man! Protecting the threads of random people for no reason what so ever...on the Internet. Basically a guy, in a cape, at a computer....pretty lame). The whole point to this is this: CALM THE FUCK DOWN!!!!!! If you don't like what someone has to say, and you're truly offended by it.....maybe you need to look at yourself for a minute. Maybe you're a little hypersensitive? Work on that. Maybe you need to get a sense of humor? DEFINITELY work on that. Or maybe, especially if the thread/photo could definitely lead to disagreement.....DON'T READ THE COMMENTS!!!! On the other side of the coin, if you actually LIKE getting into "comment arguments" with other people...GO AHEAD! It's hilarious! Now, I do understand that sometimes people who post racist comments, ignorant comments, just plain stupid comments, etc., might need to be educated that that is NOT OK! But, in the end, you've just gotten yourself all pissed off at someone you don't know....and they probably didn't even learn anything. I'm guilty of that crap myself. Like if someone puts a post up like: "Did you hear about the guy who got shot in Bellport the other day? Crazy, smh" And some ignorant ass fuck comments something like: "You know it must have been a (insert offensive racial slur here)" Then yes, I'm gonna attack the shit outta this cock hole!!!! So yes, I am totally guilty of this too, but none of my comments are EVER racist, ignorant, etc., because I am neither racist or ignorant! So let me know if this has ever happened to you. I cannot be the only one. Da da da DAAAHHHH!!! Internet Watch Man, AWAY!!! (As he glides across the floor in an office chair!) That's all I got this time! Please follow my blog if I made you think, or laugh, or eat ramen noodles, or ANYTHING....and feel free to comment if you agree, or disagree, or just love kittens! I'm not here to judge you! But I do have an opinion on a LOT of things, and if you can help me understand yours, in a logical and reasonable fashion....you might just change my mind! But probably not. I love you, and I hope you have a glorious day! You can find me on twitter: www.twitter.com/nytatt2chick Or the book of faces: www.facebook.com/nytatt2chick Ok...so I usually go off on long friggin rants on Facebook, like EVERYDAY! So I was thinking about how I fill up other people's threads with my constant shenanigans......why not make my own blog?! I'll probably still post borderline maniacal rants on everyone else's shit, but at least THIS way I can say, "Hey, guy who I totally fuckin disagree with.....if you don't like what I have to say, DON'T FUCKIN READ IT!!!!!" So here it goes.
I'll keep this one pretty light (mostly to not terrify you with my insanity!). Yesterday was Christmas, and I hope everyone had a great day (even if you don't celebrate Christmas, STILL HOPE YOU HAD A GOOD DAY!). Anyway, here's what got me kinda irritated. I got my kids two of these Meep! Tablet things....mostly because they're always trying to steal my phone, or my computer, or ANYTHING electronic. That's not all they got. We spoiled the SHIT outta my 2 babies. Long story short (I could see you fading in my mind already!), the fuckin servers that you need to log into to do, well, pretty much ANYTHING with these things crashed due to the insane amount of traffic (hmmmm, guessing I wasn't the only one who was sick of gettin all my crap stolen). That's not even what pissed me off though....had to give you a little back story so you'd know what the hell I was talking about (foreshadowing!). So all these parents are all over the page like "Oh you guys fuckin suck...my kid's crying because he wants to use his tablet", or "You guys RUINED Christmas because my kids think Santa brought them a broken toy.". Ummm, NO! That's a BAD mommy or daddy!!! Ok, I admit I'm a little bit pissed that I can't set these fuckin things up for my kids, but, hi people, my name is reality, and I have a check for you: Did you ever stop to think that maybe, just maybe, if the fact that you can't set up the fucking tablet that you ALREADY spent $150 fucking dollars on, and your little Princess Spoiled Cranky Banana can't fucking deal with the shit ton of games/apps/ebooks that came PRELOADED on the fucking thing for a couple fucking days while they try and fix the goddamn servers; MAYBE YOU NEED TO HANDLE THAT SITUATION FIRST BECAUSE YOUR KID IS GOING TO BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IN LIFE AND YOU WOULD HAVE HAD A SHITTY CHRISTMAS NO MATTER WHAT!!! Maybe, I don't know, your kids can play with the other 65 million toys you bought them, that they didn't need in the first fucking place, and just deal with it. Or maybe I'm crazy. Let me tell you RIGHT NOW that, yes, I totally spoiled the living SHIT out of my kids this year.....but they can deal with not having like 150 games instantly at their fingertips, that they're just gonna get bored with anyway!!! When I was a kid, I would get clothes...FUCKING CLOTHES...for Christmas. 99% of the time, they were clothes that I didn't even like!!!! (Sorry mom....the cat's out of the bag!). I'd get a couple toys, maybe one that I asked for (or a no name knock off...GOD FORBID!), but you know what?! I was fucking happy! So if you're one of the materialistic parents who are bitching and whining that your little precious shit is unhappy, kill yourself. You've already bred, but maybe your kids can be saved. That's all I got this time! Please follow my blog if I made you think, or laugh, or eat ramen noodles, or ANYTHING....and feel free to comment if you agree, or disagree, or just love kittens! I'm not here to judge you! But I do have an opinion on a LOT of things, and if you can help me understand yours, in a logical and reasonable fashion....you might just change my mind!
