Time to wisen up
Yeah people, it's time to wizen up to some things in this
world.
I look around, and see so many people going wrong and being led astray in so many ways, even myself, that it makes me sick at times. When did we sink so low not only as people but as a society, this I wonder.
Stupidity runs wild. Now ignorance is one thing, but stupidity is practically a sin, and yet increasingly so, we just about laud it as a desirable trait. I'm sorry, but repeating lines from sitcoms doesn't make a person smart or witty, saying you read Deepak Chopra doesn't make you intelligent any more than saying reading the Bible makes you a Christian. If you're using it as a badge, welcome to stupidville. Allow me to show you the secret handshake when you find lodging.
We are not like you. Christ people, wake up. If you find that you have a hard time relating to a person because they're not certain things, such as: a hardcore baseball fan, Satanist, Heavy metal Dude, purveyor of the latest fashions, etc, then its time to start stepping out of your egocentric little cloud and see the bigger world around you. Its rough and scary, trust me, I know this, but its much more worth it. Besides, the longer you stay in your solipsistic little bubble, the faster you rocket right to stupidville. Remember, allow me to show you the secret handshake when you find lodging.
Follow me and die. Please, go, dress in your standard issue emo, goth, jock, metro uniform and tell me you're an individual. Tout the party line and speak to me of being a deep thinker. Above all, do please always show scorn and ridicule for anyone and everything that has an opinion different than you and your circle of friends. Same goes for you open minded followers whom accept everything anyone says as true without measuring it against your own yardstick. How much original thought or art have we seen lately? This is what likely scares me the most about this world. Have we gone into the land of the relapse and rehash? Selfishly, it saps my own creativity as well.
Aesthetics is wholly missing in so many places. I've noticed it even in my own home, which I'm taking steps to fix. By comparison, most places nowadays are rather empty and spartan. Theres not much that says 'this is my place' like you used to see. I think we lose our connection with things when that happens. Like its not valuable enough to us to make beautiful.
Its time to drop the pretentiousness. Yeah, everyone wants to feel like the big shot, sex queen, model, and so on, but just because you want to doesn't mean you are, so just stop posturing if you can't come up with the goods. A lot of the people out there aren't going to be winning any beauty contests any time soon, even if they are good looking people, so just drop it. Honestly, if you find the right people, they're not going to be concerned with how rich you are, smart you are, ugly you are, etc unless it becomes a problem. Its a problem now with how we all act about it at times. Yeah, all of us.
We deceive ourselves far too often. Hey, it can be fun at times. A little role play never hurt us, but come on, tell me you honestly like your role sometimes. How long can any of us eat shit until we find out the taste isn't nearly as flavorful as we led ourselves to believe?
So special, so much pride. Pride is a good thing. Hell, we should be proud of our accomplishments. We're beat upon every day by people who scream we should be humble. Usually this is from people who have accomplished little. We've become so overblown in our pursuit of how great we are though, seriously, most of us, that when we make a mistake, when theres no other recourse, we still can't just say 'Hey, I made a mistake, it was wrong, is there some compromise we can reach here?'
sounds all screwed up, and I'm sure people will come jumping out of the woodwork proclaiming how they're not any of this, while exhibiting every sign. Its still wrong, since it leads to an entire race of just completely unhappy people that are propping themselves up on a few small and insignificant things in their lives and calling it happy. Really, if you measure your success by your ability to have sex, generate all kinds of money to flash around to others, by your unending stores of Family Guy t-shirts, or boundless knowledge of baseball statistics, then I do truly feel sorry for you.
How do you, me and all of us fix it? You have to find your own way. I can't tell you, it likely won't work for you any more than your way will work for me. But you have to try, that's what counts.
By the way, Heath Ledger can still suck my balls, and the human race is better off without that waste of space. Actors in general still are artists, but I'll modify that to say that most of the people you see in Hollywood and Broadway aren't actors, they're entertainers, and clowns in general. I'm sorry, but those types aren't artists, they're professional script readers and don't deserve much respect. Those that are worse, are the fools who support them and contribute to their over paid lifestyle. Shoot 'em all.
Good night.
