Sick and tired of being sick and tired

I don't really know where to start on this... there's so much crap in the world, today. I don't expect everyone to agree on this, I don't really expect -anyone- to agree on it. But its some stuff I've been thinking on lately and I thought I'd write it down. I hope I don't offend too many people, but at the same time I don't really care. I'm not ( Read more... )

I agree with 99% of this. The other 1% is stuff that I only partially agree with, like the robot voice thing in songs... I like it XD but it is overdone. I just take it one song at a time, though.

"I'm sick of people looking down on me because I haven't go to college as soon as I graduated high school when all that money and time invested into your schooling is going to drop you right into the worst job market in history and you'll be lucky to even have anything to show for it"

;-; it's true.. you don't know how scary it is to know that I'm going to get a degree, and likely not get a job after it...

The job market is so terrible now that I was reading an article from CNNmoney, where they were talking about companies that aren't even hiring unemployed people, and stating so in their ads. Like saying "will only consider hiring those already employed." when CNNmoney tried to interview these companies, they immediately withdrew their ads... but you know they're still considering it.

"I'm sick of hearing anything about it, because it just makes me madder"

I agree with this, except replacing "mad" with "sad." I get really depressed about it, thinking about what's going to happen to the future and stuff...

"I'm sick of feminists and girl power. Look, women are awesome and I'm not trying to say they're all stupid fragile sissies that need a big strong man to protect them. What I'm saying is that this 'war of the sexes' bullshit is stupid. If we're supposed to treat each other like equals, then stop making everything men vs women"

"Feminism" refers to the idea that women are equal to men, however, stupid feminazi women twisted the meaning to mean something like "women are better than men." Those types of people are JUST as bad as the guys that try and say that women can't do shit, because they give women a bad image in making us all seem like we're trying to say that we're better than guys. This in turn, only makes those same men want to bring us down, and the cycle continues.

People should just accept one another for what they are, without relying on stereotypes, biases, or the need to be more powerful than the other (this goes for both sexes!). We need to accept that in some regards we're different, such as in our ideas of sex and relationships, and in some aspects that we're considered different due to social expectations and stereotypes, there really is no difference, such as right versus left brain, logic versus feeling, math ability, reaction time, etc.

I added this entry to my "memories," because I think absolutely all those points are valid, and I think I'd want to revisit them in the future.

I also just read that article about companies not hiring unemployed people. A friend of mine posted it on Facebook. Shit is whack.

Besides, if I was hiring someone, I would much rather hire an unemployed person than hire either A: someone who jumped ship and abandoned his former employer because it doesn't show much loyalty, or B: Someone who has commitments to another job because I would want my employees to focus on this job, not another one.
