RBADDK (Politics Suck)

Wanna know my take on the election? America likes change and things were pretty bad the last few years. This Presidential race was decided over a year ago: it was going to be a Democrat. I just thank the Lord it's not Hillary. Oh yeah, and Politics suck.



-Here's a news flash for you, being liberal does not equal being open minded. Just because you are pro choice and support gay rights doesn't mean you are open minded. You may think it does, but it does not. Not accepting others because they have a different opinion than you is actually just the opposite. You preach human rights and letting people make decisions for themselves, yet you get all butt hurt if they don't believe what you believe. The worse part is you don't even want to listen to an explanation on why they feel the way they do. You are just so sure that they are wrong. (Please note that I am not trying to claim that anyone who is liberal is this way- It's just a mindset that I have seen recently)

-On that note, there are two sides to everything people. PLEASE look into that before you bash the other side. (this goes for both you liberals and conservatives)

-Please don't ever see the Haunting of Molly Hartley. It is a really, really bad movie. If you tell me you enjoyed it, I will stab you in the Jaw. Bad. Just Bad.

-I freaking love TiVo. Except when it doesn't record when it's supposed to. That I don't like.

-Updating your status on Facebook to say "Richard is sick of being sick." Or "Melanie is tired of being tired" or "Jamie is sick and tired of being sick and tired" is not nearly as cleaver as you think it is.

-Speaking of Facebook stati, I am pretty sure it's already time to stop talking about Prop 8 via facebook status. We all know you and your ward are happy about it passing or that you think mormons are bigots. You've said it in a different way every day for the last week.

-Singing Christmas songs in Late October/Early November brings back a lot memories. It also makes me want to kick myself in the junk. I don't know how that would work exactly- but in the middle of singing Happy Holidays for the 9th time in a row I think it would be less painful.

-I've said it once and I'll say it again: I hate Verizon. Remember that time I was in the middle of a conversation and the network went down? I thought it was just my house so I drove a mile away hoping to get service and all I got was that stupid Searching for Service logo. I wouldn't have been as upset had I not been in the middle of a conversation with someone who is ridiculously hard to get a hold of. Real cool Verzion.

And why do you have to have such an attitude? You were once rated the best service so you jack up your price, lock your bluetooth, shut down the option for Mxyertones to work and restrict me from sending text messages over 160 characters to anyone who doesn't have your awesome service? Awesome.

-Doing new things is neat. I highly recommend it. Unless you are considering listening to the Jonas Brothers- Trust me, it's not worth it. I cannot handle their breathy, whiney voices. Some of their songs do not suck, but they do.

-Cope out

Halloween is neat.

I haven't had the chance or desire to dress up for the last few halloweens since I was this every weekend in October:


But this year I decided I wanted to actually go and do something. I went up to Ogden for a Party with a bunch of Weber Staters. I still didn't want to spend much time on my Costume though, so I recycled an old idea and made it a touch better.

This was me in 2000 as a 17 year old (thanks Jill)



And this is me in 2008




Yes, that is my actual Cub Scout shirt. Yes, I was a lot skinnier in High School.

I added the nice kerchief and slider this year. I did have on some Khaki Shorts and Hiking Socks as well. (Just for all you poeple paying attention, I did actually make it to Bear, just never got around to sewing that one on. But that is when my scouting career stopped. No Weblos. No Arrow of Light. No Tenderfoot. Obviously no Eagle as well.... )

Halloween wasn't too bad this year. The party was pretty crazy and I was only one of a few sober people around, but I still had a good time. Maybe next year I'll actually be able to celebrate the whole day...
