And the chinese government still hasn't gotten it into their thick skulls that you CAN'T CONTROL…
It seems no thread is complete without NetNinja's overly long, pointless, insane State of the Union…

Maybe they should just make a different kind of vehicle, electric bikes, or Hybrid Bikes. I don't think you should drive a US style car in a place that's not built like the US. You should drive a car that's built for your city.
That's why you find more trucks in the country, and find more cars in the city. Though, Americans are gluttons and tend to have both.

I'm glad this topic was posted. I don't know if I have done these things, but now I'm a little self aware. I see people pick their noses, it doesn't bother me, or dig the underwear out of their crack, it doesn't bother me. It makes me laugh. It makes me think "wow, there human just like me." But yeah, a little dicency never hurt anybody.
What really ticks me off is drivers who will see you coming, and pull out in front of you and slow down...W...T...F?!
People who walk in the middle of an isle really slow, or walk in front of you really slowly like there the only ones there.
Neighbors in apartments who play music really loudly. Ok, do you know we are only seperated by like a foot of wood? I'm planing on faking a murder in my apartment. Just by yelling at myself and throwing myself downstairs. Then I'll go outside and knock on their door butt naked asking them to be quite. That will shut them up.

Thats is all "Christianity" has ever done to get more people into christianity. They change something in the relegioun to gather more people They did it in the past. Oh..lets say the "Cross". Look it up. Cross in the Greek language is actually just a wooden stake. The cross that they use is actually from some other pagan religion, to get these people into Christianity, they adopted the cross. Same with Christmas. It was a roman holiday to celebrate the undying sun. When December the sun seems at its weakest. They wanted Jesus to be born around that time. As a matter of fact, Jesus was actually born around October, and when he was born, not many people cared...People not caring about his birth lives up to the Proverb "Better they day of someones death than the day of their birth".
I explained that pretty vaguely, but if you actually do your research you'll find that its all true.

The American people also deserve some blame. Nobody put a gun to anybody's head and forced them to take out a five-year loan for a gas guzzler. Or sign for a sub-prime mortgage. Yet I do hold the administration accountable for telling people to "go shopping" as a patriotic duty to keep the economy afloat while turning a blind eye to the amount of debt which was being run up. Many were living beyond their means and nobody wanted to acknowledge that.
True, I worked at a Wal-mart and you find the dumbest people there. They complain about gas prices and lug themselves with 2 basket of food and 2 fat kids into a hummer. I also don't understand, in Oklahoma at least, They buy those 2 baskets of food, but they go out to eat almost every day. Really, If you drive down 71st street,for like 10 miles its just places to eat left and right....I'M NOT EXAGGERATING!
And yes, the media just bombards the people with stuff they should buy. Should people be shopping for I pods while there are kids dieing of starvation in...every bloody part of the globe. I don't get the economy in that seance. Is that the only way to stimulate the economy is by making Americans spend money on crap they don't need/can't afford?

I was lulled into the virtual world. For most of my High school years I revolved around video games and...cartoons...I love cartoons. I grew tired of myself, hating my self, but instead of just hating myself and not doing anything, I acted. When I graduated I kicked my self out of my partents place at 19 got a job and I now RARELY play video games. I don't watch TV. I do watch some cartoons and movies on my computer, but I go days on end without doing so. I lost a lot of weight, I enjoy the outdoors.
I like to draw. When I lived in that virtual world, my artwork sucked ass. When I moved out and didn't have television to distract me. My artwork has improved tremendously. If you have kids or if your a kid. Get that damn Television out of your damn room. Go out side. If you want, play your stupid video game outside, cause eventually you will put it down and enjoy the scenery. Find yourself a constrictive hobby. Be it painting, drawing, music, cutting hair I don't care. Something that makes you think. Video games should be just a small brake from your mundane life, it shouldn't BE your life.

He's not separating himself from the list. Movies last at most 3 hours and cost 8 bucks at most (here in the U.S). You don't spend all day and a lot of money on the movie theater. At most you see one movie in a day and that's it. His movies do come out on DVD. That's where he includes himself in it.
When you watch TV or Play Video games or on the internet, your on your butt way more than just 3 hours. I wasted my childhood when I was a kid. All I did was watch cartoons and play video games when I got home from school. I hate myself everyday for that. Now I live on my own and I don't have my television hooked up with cable. I use it to watch movie's occasionally, next to not at all.
I download a lot of movies and such on my computer, but I go with out watching anything for days on end cause its more controlled. If you have a TV you spend almost an hour looking for something good on. Where if I download what I want, I can watch it, be done with it, and go outside.
If you had a TV, you would have to be in at a certain time to catch what you want to watch. Even if you had a DVR, you record a lot and watch it all at once. As well as your show comes on in 30 mins, what do you do to kill time? You watch TV.
