give me religion and a lobotomy
i am so easily annoyed. i wish i was laid back. i want to be one of those cool, mellow people who can chill and not be affected by things... or who does not take offense to everything under the sun because it may possibly hurt himself or others. i can't take a joke for the life of me... perhaps because inherent in western-style jokes is the degradation or disrespect of an oft stereotyped person or group of people, which only exists for the purpose of the joke, after all. how else can you dehumanize people so killing them is so much easier?

i'm annoyed by what i perceive to be superficiality, when in actuality, it may just be a different way of socializing than i can understand or prefer. maybe some people truly do feel connections to 50 people at a time and can feel comfortable, happy, and complete without being serious or forming deep reciprocal friendships with other people. some, probably even most, people enjoy what i would deem superficial relationships in order to evade the bleak, meaningless existence that we each occupy. an existence like a fly stuck between the glass and screen of a window pane. it is reasonable... quite practical and logical, really, to want to deny such an existence by layering your life with more meaningless things. for, by collecting and surrounding yourself with meaningless things in order to disguise the meaninglessness of your life, the chaotic busy-ness that ensues will thereby create urgency and the illusion that everything is important and therefore meaningful.

taken from this article:

U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said yesterday that those calling for dialogue with Syria and Iran fail to realize that these countries are seeking to undermine stability, and that talks with them are unlikely to yield results.

"stability" is relative, obviously... since a U.S.-israeli controlled middle east is somehow, in rice's opinion, more "stable" than an arab-controlled middle east. as usual, we have forgotten that much of the instability of the region has resulted from the imperialist domination by the US and israel in dividing and conquering arab lands for the past century. obviously, an infantile refusal to talk and cooperate with other nations will yield much better results than working for peace and justice for all people. i mean, look at how well bombs and guns have worked in iraq.

feels like it beats you up
feels like it knocks you out
feels like a kiss on the mouth
feels like the saddest song
nothing can stop us now
feels like a kiss on the mouth

:: Music: Bloc Party - Helicopter

Note to self: Empty.

The next line in the song is, "Running on bravado." It's kinda emo at first, but then it goes on and well what do you know, it's about the Bush administration.

This is an English band, but that's just a speck of dust on the beach compared to the gazillion American bands that have had something to say against Bush in the last five years or so. Yes, the American public seems to have come to the general consensus that the world hates Bush, and that he is an idiot with poor speaking skills, atrocious grammar and a political agenda that would drive me to the crazy house.

But who voted for him in the first place?

And who though it wasn't in the least bit tasteless to make a movie about assasinating him?

:: Music: Martin Sexton - The Way I Am

Saw an old fisherman out swaying on the dock
Swinging a jug of something in the string of fish he had caught
His wife had left him just a week before
She packed up her bags and she waltzed on out the door
And she said
You know I don't like the way I am
You know I don't like the way I am


And then she cried
Right out loud
She sang
