Gone Gonzo Posts: 1879 Joined: 11 Jul 2008 | I dont know what the US version is, but every magazine like Hello, OK, Heat, and the gossip pages in the newspapers, the idea that millions of people are going to want to see a photo of a minor celebrity chef's wife's knees looking slightly wrinkly just astounds me. The idea that somehow celebs are no longer human and shouldn't ever have a sweat patch under their arm on a hot day while jogging, or heaven forbid their skin creases in some way as they bend, it alls gets captured on someone's long range camera, blown up, and printed with a big red circle around it. I don't even like celebs in general, but no-one deserves to get picked apart like that, especially when your job isnt even about looking good. Also the massive number of people who complain about speeding tickets in the UK, there's a speed limit, maybe you don't agree, but it is the law, if you really have to go faster than you're allowed, you can't really complain when the fine comes thru your mailbox. I do understand it's been turned into a massive cash cow by the government, (another thing I don't agree with, certain crimes being set a cash fine, it just means the rich can break the law as much as they like, I know if I won the lottery and there was a set fine for knocking a chav's hat off, I'd be at it all day.), but, its there, its the law, you know it is, so just don't do it. |

BUt mind you, he doesn't work with smart people. One of them did 6 years of high school, doing drug studies every year and had never heard of ice(the meth kind, not frozen water) |

Feminism is a Good word, don't let it be sullied by the wretched few. |
Pulitzer Laureate Posts: 722 Joined: 16 Apr 2008 | When I see a mother smoking and dangling the cigerette in front of their child inbetween tokes. That really makes my blood boil. One more - a few weeks ago I was getting off a train and had to cross the bridge to the other platform. There were 2 girls sitting on both sides of the stairs. Me, and a lot of other people had to squeeze past them both and the girl looked at me like I was being rude when I accidentally knocked her with my bag as I went past. THERE ARE DOZENS OF PEOPLE TRYING TO GET UP THE STAIRS YOU ARE SITTING ON. GET THE !% UP :| |

Infamous Scribbler Posts: 569 Joined: 23 Jun 2008 | The Scorpion King 2 All those shitty parody movies. The newest Star Wars trilogy, and basically anything Lucas has said or done since. Celebrity gossip, and not least of all the paparazzi. Also, I used to work at a gas station. One of my favorite stories about that place is when some lady called me a racist because we didn't have public washrooms. The complete and total idiocy displayed by everyday humanity, ad infinitum. MacDonalds, smoking, people who get pregnant AT or BEFORE 20. Seriously like a dozen people I knew in high school either have a kid or are expecting one. Gotta love them crack daddy's. I think that's all for now. *Siiiiigh*, that felt good. |

That's easy enough to fix; straighten your back so you stand taller and clear your throat to get their attention. Then look the blocker dead in the eyes and in a firm voice loud enough for them to hear say "Move" give a pause then a half smile and say "please" I find that works quite well in most situations. Good luck. |

Something similar happened to me a few years ago. I really hate how sexism against guys gets no attention whatsoever in the media or anything else. |

Please don't mention Hedburg in the same vein as Carlos Mencia! What was wrong with Mitch? "An escalator can never break, it can only become stairs!" I loved the guy |

Gone Gonzo Posts: 1148 Joined: 28 Apr 2008 | Schools now, the education system to save money is reintegrating the retards (the wheelchair pants-crapping kind) into regular classes because it isn't "fair" to them to keep them out of normal classes. Never mind that they don't grasp the material that's being presented and the teachers in those classes don't have the training to deal with them. And the special ed kids are now being called "students with exceptionalities" because you wouldn't want to hurt the feelings of someone too bloody stupid to understand that you are making fun of them. Retarded is a clinical term, what's the next clinical term that will go out the window, infected maybe? And people that actually believe the feminazi line about women still making less than men (it's been shown that women willing to make the same sacrifices as men make %150 what men do in the same work) when all they REALLY want is to be able to do less work and make the same amount of money. Plus the fact that the US is VERY anti-male. My dad worked 12 hours a day, came home, cooked us kids dinner, cleaned the house, then when he went to bed my step-mother would freak out because he wasn't spending the 5 hours he had left with HER (she got half his pension, the house, the car, and alimony in the divorce. He got the kids.)My dad wasn't the only one that got this treatment either, most of my friends' dads got shafted the same way. Most of those women moved on to new men a week later and instead of getting married to them just lives with them and have families with them while collecting alimony. In the US children aren't disciplined any more because it's illegal to do more than take away the video games. And as for people who think violent media makes violent people, it's the parents' mistakes that screw the kids up, not any bloody cartoon/movie/video game. Now that I think about it, 99% of societies woes can be blamed on poor parenting (most of which started when beating your kids became illegal, yay for protecting the kids. Bleeding heart pansies.) |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 3587 Joined: 6 Aug 2008 | everyone above me is right, especially the one about guys having to carrying heavy stuff and girls not having to. Either accept the responsibility of modern feminism (ie there is no male/female only PEOPLE) or shut the fuck up, it is absolute bullsh^t to go on about being treated fairly and get pissed off when you are. |

Dude, its escalator, not elevator, thats kinda important to the joke. I hate to 'sandbag' you on it, but I can't stand the thought of someone linking Mitch Hedberg this joke when its told incorrectly. |
Red Guard Posts: 4906 Joined: 14 Oct 2007 | China's government pisses me off. They're not communist, they're totalitarian. I just heard on the radio that two women are reported to have been arrested and placed in a year's "Re-education" through labour for trying to protest when their house was knocked down to make way for an Olympic route. These women applied as the laws state they may, to protest in a designated Beijing protest site. Now it seems that the only appropriate line is "Arbeit macht frei". |

Dear. God. Thank Christ I've found a kindred spirit. One of my . . . acquaintances literally 1337sp33ks. One of his favorite phrases, "I did it for tuh lolz." Perfect quote. He emphasizes the last two words just out of spite.
Also, I overheard a guy at my school trying to chat up this girl. "You know it's going to be almost 8 degrees tomorrow. That's almost as cold as it gets in the ANTARCTIC!!!"
