If I Was "Smart" (I'd Been Fixed Up A Long Time Ago)

I watched this with a friend, yesterday, who was trying "help". There was something about the words "$8 billion" that seemed to have an effect on him. He got quiet, and then started shaking his head, before gradually snapping and becoming normal. 

There is such a thing, y'know,...

Life Is An Illusion (But You're Really Living Through It)

"We're less on testosterone. We don't have that need to always be confrontational."

Reality: It's A Tough Sell But,...Man, What A Great Idea!

Sure, I've used this Penn & Teller episode before, but it's the best. And, while I don't agree with a lot of this post, this much is true:

"Lets call recycling what it is - a fraud, a sham, a scam,..."

It's only when we start acknowledging things like this - and acting on them - that we're going to find relief for what ails us (like China looming in the background). But - since that calls for some (who were seen as wise) admitting they were wrong - it's not likely to happen. And isn't it shitty we can all get screwed over something like that? Because some Leftist can't bear to admit they're wrong?

It's You Or Me (We're Down To Pure Self-Preservation,...)

In case you're thinking that I'm not blogging very much lately, you're right, and there's two reasons: 

1) I'm having a ball working on my new album. 

2) This is an "I Don't Care" election, so there's no point in my trying to engage anyone. 

The Evil Blogger Lady has posted a great video that features cult leader J.Z. Knight, and it ends with Knight saying:

"I worked really hard so we can have a bad reputation. You know why? So we can do anything out here and nobody cares."

When it comes to cults, politics, and the public, I couldn't have put it better myself. Check it out:

With people being so stupid, I can barely keep typing. I can barely keep breathing. It's all so wrong.

For instance, I like The Evil Blogger Lady - smart cow - but look at even the logic he/she is using: 

Swearing in politics - and during an election season - is bad.

Forget the people JZ Knight has deceived, rippid-off and killed, forget the mass produced "What The Bleep" indoctrination films that drew the suckers into Knight's cult like crazy (literally) forget all that - BAD LANGUAGE is EBL's line in the sand. And you should know that ol' Ramtha's a Democrat who crossed it, because this is an election year, you see. This terrible swearing is happening NOW, while all that other *less important stuff* - the murders, con jobs, brainwashing, lying - that's been happening over multiple decades, right under EBL's nose, during boring times, and influencing no one's vote, so have been deemed unworthy of EBL's mention or action. Or Ann Althouse's, or Glenn Reynolds', or anybody else's really.

Sure, Knight and Romney are both in cults, but "pish-posh" to all that. J.Z. Knight's in the wrong one - there's video evidence her cult swears and openly thinks bad thoughts. Romney's cult doesn't swear, so video evidence THEY WANT TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD is irrelevant and not worth mentioning. They're "nice." I've told you:

This moral mind field of a mindfuck is exactly how the NewAge "works":

GDFKXHGH! 

 I'm sorry - forgive me: 

 That wasn't cussing, but me losing control and hitting my head on the keyboard again. 

FUCK! <--THAT was cussing: 

 I'm going back to creating my album,...

 

The Problem With Reality Is It Wins: Reality Always Wins

I'm So Phat (And The Evidence Against Me Is So Thin,...)

Ha! Ann Althouse has discovered the NewAger's "lowly disgust for citizens with obesity and an irrational fear that the overweight are intruding on the rest of us and draining us of our wealth" - a subject I've covered for years.

Ann HATES when I point out my "firsts" - and, more importantly, the fact she didn't climb onboard when I said them merely because (shockingly) they made good sense.

I always wonder why she doesn't see these things when I say them - it's ALWAYS got to be her or some "authority." (Do I challenge her on the constitution?) I mean, as long as I've hung out on her blog, I've told her she's trapped in a NewAge Nazi cult, so why is she surprised, now, that believers would find "the Auschwitz look" appealing? (There was lots of Nazi/prisoner sex going on in those camps,...)

Today, if you look like you have even a smidgen of "meat on your bones" you're labeled obese by the cultists. I've also pointed out on Ann's blog how NewAgers love to blame the victim  - but people go for it, forming lovable mobs of "nice" torturers chanting the silly Hitler Youth slogan "Mind/Body/Spirit" at whoever doesn't go along.

Penn & Teller even got in on the act,...for a while:

Oh yeah - about that "irrational fear" Ann wrote about? I wonder if Meade will ever reverse his opinion on who's suffering from it, now that his lady's noticed it ain't the likes of me?

Slow Learners (Slow Cooked To Perfection,...)

Can anybody give me a good reason how this headline can exist - 21 people treated for burns after firewalk at Tony Robbins appearance - while this award-winning television program is on the air?

Or, asked another way, how have so many people not gotten the memo on Tony Robbins and firewalking yet? Then again, I guess we ARE talking about NewAgers:

Twenty of them couldn't even immediately figure out fire-is-hot, after the first rube got burned.

Poor babies.

Look And Learn (We're Trying To Make It Easy)

Since we know reading environmentalist bullshit is boring, we're putting it with pictures of pretty girls to keep you interested:

Why you need to use your ‘environmentally friendly’ cotton carrier bag 131 times to be green:

Cotton bags offered by many supermarkets may be less 'green' than plastic carriers - and may cause more global warming, according to scientists.

As a greater amount of energy goes into making a cloth carrier than a polythene one, a cotton bag has to be used 131 times before it has the same environmental impact than its plastic counterpart.

And if a plastic bag is re-used as a bin liner, a cotton bag has to be used 173 times - nearly every day of the year - before its ecological impact is as low as a plastic bag on a host of factors including greenhouse gas emissions over its lifetime.

But most of us only use the bags around 51 times before they are thrown away, researchers found.

But, still, those that use them act as if they're morally superior to the rest of us.

Speaking of the we're-morally-superior clique:

San Franciscans not as green as they think:

San Franciscans have an over-inflated opinion of themselves? Say it ain't so!

It seems to be the case, at least when it comes to our ability to know which trash goes where. To help gauge how well city residents are complying with the mandatory recycling and composting laws, the Department of the Environment conducted phone surveys and focus groups testing our knowledge on the subject.

Fifty-nine percent of people said they're doing absolutely everything they possibly can.

"People said, 'I know what I'm doing,'" said Mark Westlund, spokesman for the department. "I know absolutely everything about what goes where."

But considering a third of what we send to the landfill could be recycled and another third could be composted, we're not as diligent as we'd like to think.

And they definitely "like to think" that.

O.K., since they're using the word "third" so often, here's more bullshit:

The gangs dumping your recycling in the Third World: Why that effort separating your rubbish may be a waste of time:

Thousands of tons of recycling carefully sorted by families in  Britain is being dumped illegally in the Third World.

A three-year investigation by the Environment Agency has uncovered a multi-million pound trade in shipping waste out of the country.

Investigators are now bringing prosecutions against 30 criminal gangs, with five cases already going through the courts.

The revelations come in the week it emerged that nearly 140 councils force householders to sort rubbish into five or more containers – with some insisting on as many as nine.

They are likely to raise concerns about EU recycling laws, which are blamed for creating the illegal trade. They also risk fuelling public cynicism about the value of recycling.

The value of recycling? Nine containers? Now where have we heard that stuff before?



And here's that The New York Times story they mentioned.

As for how much money we're wasting on this nonsense - during a recession - here's some good news that should give the tree huggers nightmares:

House votes 244-179 to kill U.S. funding of IPCC

Just before 2 a.m. on February 19, the war on climate science showed its grip on the U.S. House of Representatives as it voted to eliminate U.S. funding for the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. The Republican majority, on a mostly party-line vote of 244-179, went on record as essentially saying that it no longer wishes to have the IPCC prepare its comprehensive international climate science assessments.

So - while we know that won't be the end of it - in this one area, at least, we like what we're seeing.

Evil & Stupid Are A Bad Combination In Science

Why are we always right? One of our liberal roommates asked us that not too long ago, eyes all wide, and all we could do was shrug and say, we "study NewAge". Also, we were early adopters of Penn & Teller's Bullshit, so we'd already seen them prove environmentalist activists are a bunch of ignorant jackasses. Now - with college students adding a new twist to P & T's joke - we know they're also a bunch of EVIL ignorant jackasses, though we knew that already:



Why does anyone listen to these people? And, for the billionth time, is anyone going to get them thrown in jail for fraud? (Maybe Ann Althouse and Glenn Reynolds can work on that for a change.) And when are they going to try and get our money back? DO YOU HEAR US OUT THERE? WE WANT OUR COUNTRY'S FUCKING MONEY BACK!!!

Penn & Teller's Bullshit (On Organic Everything)

PETA: People Encouraging Terrorist Acts

2009: Just Dumb Enough To Be Dangerous

The Art Of Noise: Close To The Edit

This is a well-cut video, that makes it's political points in an entertaining manner, effectively adding elements from Penn & Teller's Bullshit and animation's Loony Tunes. I wish more political videos were made like this, because then, maybe, more people would pay attention to what someone who lies smoothly, like Obama, is actually saying. Watch it - and spread it around.

And don't be fooled: this election isn't over. There's still 10 days left, and it's never too late when you're fighting for a win, in the land of the free and the home of the brave.

Defending a point to the end - and doing it well - that's being American, and easily one of the most rewarding aspects of:

Bullshit On Alternative Medicine

Penn and Teller - Alternative Medicine

Bullshit On Environmental Hysteria

Penn and Teller - Bullshit! - Environmental Hysteria

And, when it comes to stupid people, the Placebo Effect can be dangerous (Homeopathy users should pay close attention):



But who, exactly, do I mean by the "stupid people"? Is it just losers in the mall? Nah (I was married to a thought-she-was-classy, college educated, french woman, remember?) it could also be any of those stuck-up assholes who, just like the french, don't think they can be fooled - and won't settle for anything less than "the best":



Or any of those "green" assholes with the hubris to think they should be telling other people how to "Save The World":



In other words, anyone who is above using that all-important but lowly thought of commodity called "common sense".

Come on, people, don't say I don't love you,...'cause I do. (Penn & Teller do to,...) This is just "tough love". Because that's the very kind you stupid, stuck-up, green assholes - who like pushing other people around - need.

Awww, do you think I should talk nicer to you? Fine. Try this:

Happy New Year!
