A tad bit irked...
Spent some time fooling around on YouTube today... Flitted from subject to subject, watched some music videos, looked up the scene in "Bitch Slap" that featured Lucy Lawless and Renee O'Connor (what can I say? I'll be a X:WP fan until the day I die, and quite honestly, that was the only part of that movie worth watching...), got struck by the fancy to see if there were any interviews with people I admire...
Fine and good, until I read the comments... Someone I respect and admire who'd had an interview posted had comments from viewers ONLY pertaining to their gender... WHY DOES IT MATTER?!! Seriously, people, get over your damned Christian morality and open your eyes. People are people. Fer reelz, yo. Lifestyle "choices" should not matter... Says the bi gal.
Just noticed what I just typed... I wonder if "damned Christian morality" qualifies as an ironic statement. I'd check, but I'm feeling lazy... And I'm not anti-Christian, I'm anti-hypocrisy and anti-anti-gay... If that makes sense. (I'm not Christian, though I do believe in letting people practice whatever they choose.)
On a more cheerful note, spent the majority of the day out of doors... Though it was pretty frikkin warm out today, I get tired of staring at the same four walls all the damn time. Television only helps so much. Perhaps it is time for me to get a "real job" possibly even necessary if I really want to go ahead and go to college... Hopefully this time I'll finish. I think I've found something that'll hold my interest this time... Maybe.
I do still want to do something with my childhood fascination with Geology, but I came to the crushing realization a long time ago that there's simply no money in it... If I wanted to be in the field, anyway, and I most certainly would. Computers seem the way to go nowadays, and I enjoy doing stuff with them as well... Besides, chemistry was frikkin HARD... Whole durned class went straight over my head. Pfft. Though at the time I took it, it was the first time I'd ever had to work to get something, which may explain why I lost interest.
Oh, just remembered something else that's been getting on my nerves lately.... Anti-smoking ads. I realize teen smoking is a problem, and I acknowledge that the tobacco companies target children... BUT! that's not why I began smoking, and I didn't start until I was 21. I started because I was hanging out in gay bars, and EVERYBODY there seemed to be smoking, and the best way to keep the smoke from bothering you is to contribute to it. And even if "Big Tobacco" stopped with the kiddie-friendly ads, teens would still smoke... It's a way to rebel. Just 'cause I rebelled in other ways, doesn't mean it'd work for others.
So yeah. That's all for today. Go forth, and multiply! Or something...
