First of all something funny, from The Onion:
Poll: Happy, Healthy Obamas Out Of Touch With Miserable Americans
And now something ridiculous and unneeded, but still time, resources and just general life is wasted on this:Caution, this will blow your mind
After reading this, your mind should implode and you should just about now be foaming at the mouth for lack of control because your brain is failing to understand, nay it is failing to understand why it has to understand why this would be printed on a box of knives.... sorry for the lack of warning but this must get out, people must know we are becoming soft in the western world, so very soft
Next I have for you my recently acquired fine for coming to a complete stop at a red, then continuing on as the signals had turned to a four way green man, signifying that it is safe for pedestrians to cross, of this category of human kind there were none at 8 25 in the evening in the middle of the deserted City (an area of London named the City, all banks and big business) while on my GOD DAMNED BICYCLE....(I understand that those of you who may read this have fond connections with police, and my be one your self, or have been saved by them, but this is not about you, this is not about them, this is about the situation I was in where the LAW IS FUCKED) In short I do not like police, I do not like the law, I do not like the idea that people do not rape, steal, kill, and extort because they are afraid of the circumstances, and because I do not like that idea, I do not like the idea of an institution that is set up to monitor these things. I am also not naive, I know people do these things because they are fucked up, or there is an accident, or there is a need or because they can make money or whatever, I know it happens and I know you have to physically stop them from doing so, but that is not the point I am making here. So, I was pulled over by a SUV and two motorcycle cops, all so they could use their favorite word, "stupid," about 57 times in reference to me and my dangerous riding style. Yes, I have a dangerous riding style, anyone who rides with me can attest to this, the bumps and scars are a testament to this, however this is because I weave through traffic, I ride fast, and if I wanted to sit around on the road and not move, I would take a bus. This is dangerous, and I do not promote it, I am just using this truth to point out that this style of riding is not dangerous if there are no fucking cars on the road. Instead of telling the hiViz squad of useless oxygen sucking, space taking, human beings that some how have survived being evolved off the face of the planet any of this, I simply pointed out that, if there were cars on the road they would now be stuck because of where they had parked their bikes. I also informed them that the 30 pounds they were going to take from me for not harming anyone, and not causing civil unrest, and not actually getting in anyone's way, and not trafficking people, and not dealing drugs, and not selling weapons, and not actually damaging government property, the 30 pounds could not cover the 6 policemens', I can say policeMEN as they were all just that, men, time, let alone fuel for the three vehicles they were using. I did hold my tongue, because what I really wanted to say was that waiting for a 30 second, useless, and ridiculous light change in the middle of the night is a massive waste of my 650 000 hour lifespan, of which I have already wasted much of waiting in lines, sleeping in late, learning useless things and doing stupid things in the sake of paperwork and earning cash money.
On the upside, I graduated.
