Y'All Suck

Alright, I had to take a break from my business trip to get this off of my dick.  I am in the middle of a conference this morning and we are told, as a collective group, to take a 20 minute break to stretch out our legs and refocus for the rest of the morning.  As I step out into the hall I check e-mail, missed calls, unread texts, Twitter, and of course, I tap into Facebook.  I am never on The Book long.  Usually it's a quick check up on selfie-loving women, "I Think I Know More About Politics Than I Do" friends, and photos of food/quotes.  But not even that shit can annoy me anymore!...maybe I subconsciously miss it?

Anyway, all of this narcisism has taken a backseat to some drinking game.  Some stupid fucking drinking game where friends slam a 12 oz. of beer and challenge the next friend or group of friends to complete the challenge within 24 hours.  The act must be recorded on video, posted on video, and another person must be nominated.  This endless cycle of bullshit goes on and on and on until who the fuck knows and every "likes" it before scrolling further down their newsfeed.  As most things do in the 21st Century, the game has evolved and kids (who are actually pretending to be young adults during the week) have grown bored of the beer and have opted to creative liquor options i.e. tequilla, bourbon, whiskey, etc.

Let me start by saying this: good for you, bro.  You can drink a beer, you can take a shot, you can do whatever it is you do on video...and about 99% of these dipshits thinks it's funny.  The other 1% drink regularly, have seen it before, and simply don't give a fuck.  Awesome, you were in college.  Great, you're still there.  Fantastic, you had friends in college and you never graduated.  Send a snapchat to all of your bros portraying your tiny, flaccid dick for all I care.  Just please, SWEET JESUS, stop putting it out on the public domain.  We've seen it, the video sucks, and you make Adele doing porn sound appealing.

You know what's going to happen one of these days?  One of these days....... (dramatic effect) ....... One of these kids is going to down way too much liquor and kill themselves.  They're not going to be able to post a video, no one will realize they're dead until a roomate or family member gets home, and then all this dick measuring will be put to rest.  If a death has yet to happen from this, I'm shocked.  And I don't want to sound like some perfect parental figure because you all know very well I am far from that.  I'm just saying it's fucking lame.  And it would be a fucking lame way to go out.  Wouldn't you agree?

One Person in this Great, Big, Fat Ass World

Let's pretend for five seconds people give a shit about what other people say.  One... Two... Three... Four... Five...

Okay, now that is out of the way, I want to make something clear; something most of you probably already know.  We are microcosoms of this great unknown we call the universe.  There have been people such as ourselves in the past and their will be clones of our identities in the future.  We are born, we live, and we die.  That is what happens.  I cannot not stop it, you cannot stop it, "God" has planned for it to happen (some say), and at the end of the day, we should be okay with that.

Now, armed with this very basic, very straightforward information that makes all of us feel insignificant and diminutive, hear this: do not let it make you feel this way.  So what the average person lives into their 70s?  Who gives two shits about how little we are compared to the history and future of this universe?  Why the fuck should that stop you from saying what you want and believing what you feel is right?

I know most of the shit I write and tweet and say have to do with meaningless, boring things.  However, I would rather leave a mark that made people smile, laugh, cry, and even think rather than keep to myself and move along like the infamous tumbleweed.

Consider this... In the 23 (almost 24, hell yeah) years I have lived on this Earth my worldview has changed immensely.  My understanding of human equality has grown, therefore changing my position on gay marriage.  Reading-up on current events has become a daily to-do, hence my stance on bringing home troops and fighting wars for moral reasons has only strengthened.  SO... amidst all the dick jokes, fuck you's, and girl troubles, I feel like I have molded well in my short, insignificant time here on this Earth.

I am not saying to rearrange your ideals.  I do not want you to change with the next wave or season that comes.  I just want you to know that if you do look introspectively or happen to feel you have grown in a positive way... that it is noticed.  Although you are one out of billions, your experience could have a ripple effect, or a Butterfly Effect (good fucking movie), on someone else and another person and so forth.

The morals and characteristics you call your own make a difference whether you feel they do or not. That's really all.

Happy Friday.
