Rants: Everyday Venting

[Dubaku]

See that red mark on my forehead? That's from the sheer amount of people that try to say the United States is the only place on Earth with corrupt government, bad people and "politically correct" bullshit. See the red mark next to it? That's from those same people saying that all Americans are full of ignorance and prejudice, and go on to say how they're so much better.

Now, I will agree. Our government is horrible and corrupt, there's plenty of unsavory individuals, and "political correctness" is stupid as hell for numerous reasons. No less, I do think the United States government needs to remember they don't police the world. But seriously, someone cannot tell me that only the United States has these issues. No place is perfect, and every country, state/province and city has problems of some kind. Be it unsavory people, horrid politicians (or the aforementioned trying to be politicians), or "political correctness." I don't underst--

I dunno, Dubai is pretty perfect. Police supercars, are you kiddin' me? *bleep* yea! But, anyways, perfection is boring, though.


I'm sure I've said this before: People are too damn sensitive nowadays.

You wanna tell me something!!! WHEN YOU SIT ON YOUR LAZY **censor** ON THAT PHONE, PROCRASTINATING?! GTFO! I gave you the friends number so you can ask his parents about him coming over. I DID THAT SUNDAY! BUT YOU WANNA MAKE DUMB **censor** EXCUSES! "I'll give you answer when I feel." IT'S TUESDAY YOU **censor**!!THREE MORE DAYS AND IT'LL MOST LIKELY BE TOO LATE, BECAUSE YOU HAD SOMETHING ELSE IN THIS **censor** WORLD THAT WAS MORE IMPORTANT!

I've hurt my lower back.  It's excruciatingly painful.  I left it too late to call in sick for work so I just have to get through on shift.


The painkillers I have either do nothing or will send me to sleep.  I've opted for the ones that do nothing, just in case.  So far I just want to cry and curl up in the corner.


Stupid pain!  Stupid vertebrae! 

[drakewithout]

your job is at hospital, surely theirs someone there who can help?

[Trixsie Vixen]

Pffft!  You can't even get a bandaid here


technically I could go to the Emergency Department...  but then I'd be awol.


Have had 90mg of codeine now, no relief, just shooting pains still

Our system is all wrong. Our whole take on drugs is all wrong. We shouldn't be wasting tax payer's money on arresting people for possession, hell, not even for usage. If I were president, my first order of business would be to legalize any and all currently illegal substances, don't even tax 'em yet, then sit back and let nature take its course, those without any self control or sense of moderation will no longer be a problem, because it would be perfectly legal to do cocaine, crack, heroin, etc. They can do as much as they want, as long as they, themselves are taking them. I've always said these people are worthless, well, time to make it true. We won't any longer have to waste billions jailing these pathetic pieces of human garbage. And if they don't want to go to rehab, we can just let 'em continue to shorten their lifespan. Any and all suppliers of such drugs can continue to make money, hell, they'll even be encouraged by the government to keep up their business. Problem solved, goodbye, war on drugs.

I get what you're saying, but there's another issue involved with drugs like that. Much of the time, drug use affects more people than the person using them. Not just the immediate family of those people, but even complete strangers. I feel that's part of the reason why many drugs are illegal in the first place; their use can hurt innocent people as well as the user.

Funnily enough I agree with you entirely, but for totally different reasons 

Oh and I would tax the [Expletive] Out of it, then again being in Britain I would need a lot of that money to pay their health bills. but as long as I make a profit overall its IMO a no lose situation for me.

Having said that for me its more a case that doing it would DESTROY so many organized crime rings, hard to make money when your main source of the stuff no longer exists 

Also to Evna's point, yea, but if it was legal it would be much easier to support these people so they do it in a way only they get hurt, also the same could be said of smoking (and alcohol to a lesser degree), and yet smoking is still legal!

Also its the governments job to help people and to run the country, not to make being an idiot illegal.

The drug rings would still make money, as well as possible gov't subsidies. And they could all work together. Coke companies, Opium companies, heroin, LSD, PCP, bath salts, whatever companies. I understand that pollution would be a problem, but hey, small price to pay for a reduction in the amount of human garbage that exists. And if they were to kill or harm anyone around them, I'd say just put 'em down.

[Angder]

Drug rings don't bother me TBH, its the places the money goes after that I want to stop.

and the reasons you just gave are exactly the ones I don't agree with actually.  I don't like the idea of killing anyone (or killing though negligence) and would do everything I could to help the addicts.

...I think we should end this conversation here though, I think the mods are starting to get twitchy about the politics and stuff... 

[Dubaku]

*poof* what politics?

[The Past]

The issue is when it turns into a flame war. Discussing politics is perfectly fine.
