It really bothers me that they never mention garlic as a method of warding off vampires. Maybe it’s ineffective, but shouldn’t they have addressed that part of the mythology?
Actually, buffy had garlic all around her room. On her bedposts even.

As promised
Here is my rant in response to the cracked.com article.
1.$500,000 seems like a lot of money, but I’m hardly rich
Ok, so yeah, it’s a lot of money. But a lot of times, these people pay higher taxes. While I agree that some people are stupid rich and do waste their money, and say they don’t have a lot, that’s a smaller percentage of people than what you think. They pay higher taxes, its true. And a lot of them do pay their taxes. So that the bottom third of the population doesn’t. How is that fair? “I’m going to pay for you to live and have welfare, while I work my ass off running a couple companies, paying for my own health, my family’s health, my employees health, and for any lawsuits that people wrongfully put up against me. That’s fair. Right?” No, it isn’t . Not every rich person is as selfish as this to take nice vacations. You deal with the stress of that lifestyle and then say its easy, ok?
2.Hey, I worked hard to get what I have.
Yeah, some people are lucky. Other people are dumb and go into fields that aren’t logical. It’s true. I admit it. A lot of people are lucky in their field. But, what you don’t realize, a lot of people had to deal with more crap than you can imagine. You think you have pressure from your parents? What if you increased that with the pressure to have to find something that they couldn’t do, when they were a fricking genius and could learn practically everything? Sound easy? Or hard? Well, a lot of people have had to do that.
Meanwhile, yes, some people are lucky. Gates was born at the right time, was in the right place, and had the right mind. The same with Jobs. They also chose wise careers that had strong futures. Choices are a strong impact. So choose a good career. One with a future. Not one that will likely lead to a dead end.
3.If I can do it, so can you.
You could. Honestly. You just have to have the right mind. And while I will admit some of this stung, I will refrain from being rude. Think about it: I worked at Dunkin Donuts for two years. That dead-ended. So, I went to work at a loan-company. That sold-out because they outsourced. So now I work at a sandwich place. My dad makes enough that I could afford to go to a high end private college for two years. But I’m making sandwiches? For “spoiled rich people”? Yeah. I am. Because I am willing to get off my butt and work for what I earn. I’ve been blessed, yes, but I work for what I can. I’m paying my loan, and going to school full time. I’m paying rent, insurance, and a phone bill. Not as much as I could pay, but I am trying. Oh, and I’m paying my parents back for all the money they spent on that private college. Lots of butt-kissing on that road, and lots of grueling work at minimum wage. But, I’ll do it if it means I can eventually have my own income and not have a loan over my head. Get over yourselves, work the low end job, and get used to it. Not every rich person lands rich on their first ten years of work. That’s life.
4.You’re just jealous because I made it and you didn’t.
Not to be cruel, but I think this one is kind of true. Why are you complaining? Because you want what I worked for? Oh, isn’t that jealousy?
And not everyone goes into law or medical school to be rich. My dad didn’t go into his work to be rich. He did it to give his family a better life. The same with my grandpa. 80 hour weeks, to send 6 kids to college, pay for at least 3 weddings, their clothing, their own home, and their vacations so his kids could have fun in their young years. Why do you think I’m going into law? Because I want to do that for my family. ITS HARD WORK. ITS PAINFUL. And there are a lot more tears of pain than tears of laughter. Again, get over yourselves. Get off your butts and work. If you work hard, you’ll get noticed. If someone works harder than you and gets noticed first, get over it, and work harder than them. Stop complaining.
5.You shouldn’t be punishing the very people that make this country work.
Ok, so, again. Get off your butts. Choose the right career paths. Choices. Matter.
Oh, and what do you think that investment tax is? It is punishing people. People who are wise with their money, save it, and invest it in something worthwhile. Seriously. Look it up.
6.Stop asking for handouts! I never got help from anybody!
So some of them had help. Some of them. There are a fair amount of them, however, that didn’t. And I’m not saying impoverished kids don’t need food stamps. I’m saying that the lazy bottom 10-30% need to stop complaining and get jobs. “I applied to hundreds, they said I didn’t have the credentials for it.” So work at a low end fast food place. Seriously. I never had the credits to get the waitressing job I wanted when I first applied. So I worked at a bakery place. Till it went down the drain. You’ll live. Work the low end job, work hard, and you’ll move along.
And yeah, they had help when they were little. WE ALL DID. Get over it. They jumped at their chance. Jump at yours. Or shut up.

I really don’t care anymore right now
I’m just going to rant on everything that has been annoying me lately. It will sound random. I’m sorry for that. I also apologize ahead of time for any grammatical and/or spelling errors.
First, all this “Stop Kony 2012” crap. Seriously, liking a page isn’t going to make a difference. And I’m guessing by July 95% of the people blogging about it and reblogging and posting and crap are going to have forgotten about it. Just stop. This stuff has been happening for years. What about all the crap happening in other countries? All the human-trafficking in Europe? Even in America? It happens. It does. You just don’t see it. These people are really fricking good at hiding their faults. They are. HENCE WHY IT GOES UNNOTICED. But it does happen. So, give money to it. Fine. Continue to give money to it. Fine. But stop blogging and reblogging about it. It’s filling my dash, my timeline, and it’s really annoying. Liking something or reposting is only helping you fill your self-esteem issues. So, either keep with it, make me eat my words. I dare you. But stop inviting me to events or calling me a horrible person for just not reblogging the crap.
Secondly, with the whole birth-control in the churches issue going on. I don’t agree with it. I don’t. That stuff causes cancer. I think the medical issues should be left to the personal people. Not to businesses. Car insurance, yeah, i have it, it makes sense considering I’ve been in two accidents in four years. Home insurance, yeah, because a house in my neighborhood, which lived two doors away from me, has caught fire, been hit by a tornado, and a whole bunch of other stuff. I would like to know that my property, which has been paid for by my parents, is safe. Their property, and stuff, should be protected. HOWEVER, that does not apply to health. Just like I don’t like this whole doctors-should-help-the-first-person-to-get-to-the-hospital stuff. No. My aunt as MS. Some paranoid mother whose child has a cold should not get priority over that. No. Not ok.
It’s the same thing with birth control. No. I will decide when I get it, and I will talk to my doctor about it when I am ready. I refuse to ask my boss tog ive me birth control. Why? Because if I was stupid enough to get myself pregnant outside of a healthy marriage/relationship, then I will pay the consequences. That’s life. You mess up, you pay up. You do well, life rewards you. Karma. Or whatever you want to call it. But don’t require your boss to give you birth control. It’s just something else for them to pay for. Not fair to them. And people need to grow up and accept their responsibilities.
Lastly, and this stuff is the really serious stuff that has been annoying the crap out of me for a long time: this whole 99% stuff. Seriously. The 1%? Not as good as you think. They pay for a lot of the country’s taxes. They pay for the bottom 10-30% of the people. No. Not ok. That has never been fair. So now some dope heads “representing” the “99%” come along and say they want the rich to be taxed more, and to have more stuff handed to them? No. That is messed up beyond what I can believe.
http://www.cracked.com/blog/6-things-rich-people-need-to-stop-saying/
This article kind of set me off in the first place. And because I responded to it on Facebook, I’m getting tons of hate, but, hey, I’ll just put it up here when I get home. Why? Because people need to know others opinions. They need to see the other side. I’ve listened to the other side. I’ve accepted that they can believe that. But, because so many keep insisting that I need to see the 99%s view, I’m just going to insist that you see mine. So, once I get home, prepare yourselves for a crap-load of even more unloading and venting. Cause it’s going to happen. Don’t like it? Message me. Tell me. I will listen. But try and force your views onto me, and I will return the favor.

A friend made a post whining about rich people. I defended some of the rich people I know. Now she has blocked me completely. Which wouldn’t bother me except she accused me of something I never would accuse anyone of. Help? Any way to become emotionally unattatched?

While you’re tumbling
Here are some exercises I do while I go through my dash.
1. Get some strap on weights. Put them on your ankles. Now lift your legs as high as your desk or table will allow. Hold them there. Don’t slouch, sit up straight. point your toes. If you dont have sandbags, its ok, just hold your legs up. It works well. I do these for 30 seconds, then gradually add 10 seconds :)
2. Grab some weights. Just do some bicep curls. It tones your arms well. Now some tricep curls. 3 reps for each arm, at 10 a rep.
3. Stretch. Seriously, tilt your chair back a bit, raise your arms above your head, clasp your fingers together, and inhale through your nose. It feels amazing.
4. Put one leg on each side of your chair. While you are sitting. Now, use your hands, and force your legs apart. It stretches your inner thighs, a place that I have difficulty toning. This helps :)
Love you peeps!
