ANYONE, ANYONE?
So, who else is pissed off that seemingly anyone and everyone can, at their convenience, come into your private property and paint your grass, sidewalks, or driveways, and put little flags all over the yard for you to mow around?
I understand that there are easements, and that people don't own the property that is in the right of way along a street and such. Still, it really peeves me that every time someone wants to do any sort of digging, for any purpose, in come the assholes with the spray paint and the flags to make your neighborhood look like a ghetto covered with graffiti. If that's not bad enough, no one ever comes back to remove the flags, and the paint must be better than any paint you can buy in a store because it seems to last forever.
Why the fuck do they need both the paint and the flags anyway? If you can't see the fucking flags, you're sure as hell not going to see the painted grass that stays that way for at least the rest of the growing season.
They should be required to come back and remove all paint and flags once whatever job called for them in the first place is completed. I won't mow around the fucking flags if there is also paint on the grass. Fuck 'em. If I can see the paint, so can they.
Shit! Even with all these flags and paint, not a day goes by that some contractor or utility company doesn't cut into a gas line, or sever an fiber-optic cable, or spring a gigantic leak in a water main. What the fuck!?!?!?!?
I'd like to find the owner or head of the gas company, the electric company, the telephone company, the cable company, and the water and sewer works, and go paint the fuck all over their property (which is probably a lot nicer-looking than mine) and stab about 500 fucking flags all over their yards and see how they like it.

Stupid, Lazy, Arrogant People are Taking Over the World
What's so hard about staying on the right side of the road, or sidewalk, or hallway (perhaps I should say the "correct side" but, fuck, this is the United States, where we keep to the right)?
You really think it's okay to hold up a line of traffic to let your kid out in the middle of the street to go to school when you could just as easily pull over to the the curb?
I suppose that red light you just ran was for the guy behind you, because obviously you're too important to stop for anyone else.
You think everyone in the world enjoys your rap, or hip-hop, or country, or booming-so-loud-it-sounds-like-your-car-is-falling-apart noise? We don't. Shut your fucking windows and turn it down, asshole!
Everyone who has a job as a telemarketer; go fuck yourself and die! I don't have any credit card debt, I already sided my house and put in new windows, and I don't give a fuck about your charity!
See that thing below your dashboard about in the center of your car. It's called an ashtray. Put your butts in it if you don't want them shoved up yours!
Hey, dumbass! Yeah, that's right. I know you're a dumbass; you're suing the city because you were too stupid to watch where you were going and walked headfirst into a telephone pole while reading a text from the guy walking next to you who fell down an open manhole.
So, you're too fucking lazy to pick up your grass clippings and decide it's easier to blow it all out into the street. Remember that when I come up to your door after turning your corner and going down on my bike because your leaves and grass made a slippery mess out on the street. Fuck that, you won't remember anything when I blow your fucking head off with my S&W 500.
I think we should have an Idiot Cocksucker Awareness Week. Instead of blocking the street with a march or a rally, we all just go out and beat senseless anyone who does any of the things previously mentioned. We could get like-minded individuals to pledge some dollar amount for each ignorant, arrogant, cocksucker we beat senseless, and all the money would go to...me! Fuck, it was my idea!
You think prison overcrowding is bad? Well, let's let them all out, and you can tell me how bad it was after some of them rape your daughter, murder your wife (or husband), and steal your life savings.
You think whites are racist? Why don't we have White Lawyers of America? Why don't we make a big deal out of the first white person to do anything? Why, if we're all equal, does it matter what race anyone is who does anything? Why do we cry about so many blacks being incarcerated? I've never seen anything in the law that makes it illegal for a black person to do something that a white person can do legally. The law is the law for all of us. After all, we didn't make it illegal to eat chicken or watermellons (that would be racist).
I don't have anything against black people, in general. It just seems that being black is an excuse for being a criminal these days. I hate anyone, of any color, who refuses to obey the law, or to have some respect for other people.
Please, add anything you like to this discussion. Of course, I may choose not to allow your comments, but go for it. I'm open-minded!

2016: The End of the United States as We Once Knew It
I don't even know where to begin listing all the things wrong with this country. That being said, it may still be the greatest country in the world; just not nearly as great as it once was or could be.
It seems the only thing that matters anymore is how many likes you got on Facebook, or retweets on Twitter. You used to hear phrases like, "Politics as usual." Well, there is nothing usual about politics these days. It has become like wrestling, nothing more than entertainment, and very poor entertainment at that.
Journalism and the media as a whole is nothing more than advertising disguised as news. The writers can't even follow simple rules of grammar let alone understand or convey the who, what, why, when, where, and how of an event they cover.
Most anyone under 40 has been brainwashed into thinking they are owed a living; an education, a job, a home, healthcare, and all the other things that comprise life are expected rather than earned.
Everyone expects everyone else to like them, or at least pretend to, while they behave like spoiled kids. No one truly cares about anyone else. They care about the attention they can get by pretending to care about others.
Donald Trump appears on his way to winning the Republican nomination despite his third-grade level vocabulary. To be honest, though, there are probably a lot of third graders that have more sense than the average citizen these days. Donald is not alone, either. Not one of the candidates in either party comes across as an intelligent person.
I'm not a religious person, but if there is a God, I hope he (she, it?) strikes down all the current candidates and allows some truly intelligent and dedicated person to be elected. Otherwise, I fear we're beyond hope.

SCALIA
This may now turn out to be the most important election for quite some time as it could determine the political leanings of the Supreme Court, which increasingly seems to determine the law of the land. Important and controversial issues are increasingly decided not by the people, not by their representatives, not by their elected leaders, but by those occupying the seats of the Supreme Court (and appointed by the President with the approval of Congress).
Some of the most controversial issues facing the U.S. have to do with human rights. Abortion and the right to bear arms are two that are frequently in the spotlight of the media. There are many others whose fate is ultimately in the hands of the Supreme Court, including: immigration, healthcare, voter I.D., education, and sexual orientation.
It is time for us all to stop the effort to put our lives under the control of government. Certainly, there are limits to our liberty, but it is not incumbent on government to tell us what we can believe, or say, or do, as long as it doesn't deny the rights specified in the Constitution that belong to all people.
People do not have a right to prosperity, or health, or a job, or a house, or car, or education, or respect. They have a right to pursue these things, they are not bestowed upon them by right of birth.
It is not government's job to make everyone equal in terms or wealth, or status, or self-esteem. Government's job is to protect the inalienable rights of people, and in our case, the rights established by the Constitution.
Vote for the person who embodies these values in the next election.
