Profile - Idiot of the Day!

Big Brother = The Parade of Idiots!

I think the title speaks for everything below. Big Brother is the official, authentic Idiot of the Day! The franchise has won my unending scorn and hatred as the prize, plus being immortalised in this blog for all time [or at least until it gets shut down for my views].

May I ask a question? What kinds of IDIOTS would sit on the couch for an hour every day and watch people locked in some house go about their business?! In English, we have a word for this: Voyeurism.

Voyeurism = Someone who receives enjoyment from witnessing other people's suffering or misfortune. [Wikipedia, the most useful collection of useless information on the web! All hail it!]

Big Brother…

All hail the parade of stupid idiots!

They call themselves decent people?!

Ok. I really don’t get it!

Recently, I came across this site and an article about a priest and 14 year old teenager. The comments following it were….AWFUL! For your own understanding, here is the site link.

Now, I admit freely that I am a practising Christian. However, I was taught to respect those of other religions. It seems that other people, however, were not taught the same decent courtesies of religious tolerance. Across the internet, I see the same nasty messages about Muslim people and Islam as a whole. Who gives them the right to use the internet as a venting ground for vitriolic, prejudiced hatred?!

The whole thing makes me…grrrrr!

Yeah, I accept that we have freedom of opinion and speech but I still think people who say stuff like that deserve to get flamed. Just my opinion. My mother taught me a very good rule: If you can’t say something nice, DON’T SAY ANYTHING! Those people should follow it.

Which leads me on to the topic…Islam.

I really don’t get how people in the ‘West’ can reconcile Islam with a small percentage of people who blow themselves up, and think it applies to all muslims. I’ve met one or two muslims on my university campus and they are all very nice, normal people who are perfectly decent. So, why can’t people see that?!

Sure, some women wear veils but not all of them. I’m a Christian and I don’t always wear a cross around my neck and a sign saying I’m one. Yet, my friends don’t lump me in with someone like the Crusaders who killed people in the name of religion. So don’t do that to people who follow Islam!

People - Stop being scaredy cats and grow up!

The intent of this post is not to defame Islam, nor the people who follow Islam. I respect Islam as a religion, even if I do not follow it. This is just my opinions and you are free to disagree or even flame me. I do not mind. However, the views expressed in this entry are mine and mine alone.

Proud to Support Breast Cancer Research!

October is Breast Cancer Research Month!

From myself, I offer my sympathies to those around the world who have lost mothers, sisters, cousins, aunts and grandmothers to breast or cervical cancer. May these souls be remembered and honoured for their brave fight against this awful disease.

So what can we do?!

Top 10 things to do for Breast Cancer Research!

1. Donate money! Every little bit helps, even a single dollar.
2. Hold an event and raise money!
3. Sell cute bakery goods decorated in pink for charity
4. Visit somebody who has experienced this disease first hand and get to know them.
5. Put out a collection around work.
6. Organise to take part in stringing your bras along the Sydney harbour or in a city near you.
7. Buy a pink ribbon, mount franklin or warm fuzzy
8. Wear pink all day!
9. Post comments to this blog, rendering your support for research into the disease.
10. Take your mom, grandmother, aunt, cousin or sister out for a meal and show them how much they are loved! [I think that’s the best option lol]


EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS!!!!

Political Censorship Be Damned!

In my semi-regular blogging life, I have seen some really weird things. Now, for those Australians out there, I present to you a non-political, a-typical guide to voting in the election [or something to get me out of handing in my essay on Russian history]. So here are some little hints to voting…

And no, I’m not plugging any particular party!

No. 1 – What parents say you should vote can be a good or a bad thing!

Ok, so my parents are pretty cool, if not totally up to date on what my activities are all the time. [Love you!] They’re staunch Liberal supporters, have been for as long as I can remember. But I figure, for those of you with parents of middle age, they might actually know what they’re talking about. So go and ask them!

No. 2 – Don’t believe all those ads on tv!
I really am quite sick of those workplace ads. Once was good enough. I figure that the labour party will always attack the Liberal Party, so they’re not the most unbiased people anyways. And Liberals will attack labour. The Greens…well its safe to say that they’ll just attack anyone to get their point across.

No. 3 – You’ll never, never know unless you never, ever ask!
Once in a while, get yourself down to the local polly office and ask them for some information, what they think about these laws. And don’t just ask one party, go for them all!

No. 4 – The Web = Power!
The internet is soooo awesome! Go check out Youtube for embarrassing videos of pollys caught with their pants down – not literally of course. Although, I do wonder sometimes…

No. 5 – Question Time equals hilarity
ABC, around 1pm. Tape it! Your best chance to watch sensible old people turn into ghastly animals and swear a lot. Much better than Funniest Home Videos. Warning – some viewers may experience extreme boredom.

No. 6 – Vote how you want!
Finally, ignore everyone and go with your gut!

So there you go….


Oh, and stay away from the Today Tonight and ACA news polls. They’re incredibly
biased!!!

Paris Hilton?!

Ok.

I have tried to put this off but the time has come to chuck in my views on the whole dumb, stupid debarcle on Paris Hilton. Geesh, even I stooped this low and I swore never, ever to write something about her....yeesh. But enough is enough! Who fuckin' cares about some blonde chick with no fat on her bones, a terrible fashion style and rich parents?

NEWSFLASH! ALL YOU MEDIA PEOPLE, GET OVER IT!

Le sigh.

*takes deep breath and lets it out again*

Ok. Lets start from the very beginning.

So, some chick named Paris Hilton gets 45 days sentence in jail for driving on a suspended license. Her publicist told her it was alright. How dumb could that publicist be?! Did he like, fall asleep in the preliminary hearing or something? EVERYONE knows that if you're suspended, you're suspended. Period. Its on the learner driver test questions, for the love of pete!

And now she's some kind of media sensation. Well, that orange jumpsuit looks better than most of the clothes she wears. What I, like probably the majority of Australians, don't get, is why the media are interested in her at all down here in Oz? Every week, there's stories about her supposed mental anguish. Can she act? Nope. Can she sing? Nope. Can she model? Nope. Is she a good rolemodel for kids? Hell no.

So...what exactly does she do? What purpose does she serve? Why waste thousands of dollars publicising some tiny-waisted rich kid who des nothing but sit on her ass and drink alcohol? I mean, at least Lindsay Lohan has some use in society [even if she takes drugs and drinks too much and might end up in jail too]. You could send the money to Darfur or Iraq and feed hundreds of families over there, instead, you waste it on some chick none of us like!

Hello, peoples!!!!

Just cause she boned some Australian Idol finalist while down here for the Melbourne Cup don't make her any more interesting to us. We didn't care when she boned him, we don't care now. We care about drought and the Hunter Valley being flooded and whose gonna be our next head of the country. Not her.

Oh yeah, on another note.

What is with that whole psychiatric evaluation?! Maybe she turned up in jail and they realised she had like, Chlamydia or something from sleeping around and she burst into tears and bribed them huge stacks of money to let her out. Or...maybe she tried to starve herself to death or had an eating disorder or tried to kill herself. I mean, thats the most interesting part of the whole saga!

And Paris has found God?!

Hello?! That is soooo obvious. I mean, everyone says they found God. Hitler said something along the lines of that, or believed in him, or something equally vague. You only say you've found God when nobody's paying attention to you and you fell all sulky. If she had REALLY found God, she wouldn't have said it, but started acting like it. And whats so different about jail that you can find God there but not in the everyday world?!

Paris is just dumb. Period. Forget her and let her die in oblivion.

And here endeth the rant. :)

Does It Ever Bother You When....

For my first blog post, I wish to turn my attention to the comsumer of many females [and some males, who will remain nameless] money. Thats right, the hard earned cash we rake in after the tax man is finished and all our bills are paid off.

It is...the fashion industry!

Don’t get me wrong, I love fashion. My dad says I spend too much money on clothes as it is, so I’m not exactly sitting on a cushioned chair laughing at everyone else. But doesn’t it bother you that clothes [at least in Australia] are expensive?

So tonight, I turn my attention to some pet peeves.

1. Sizes. Why does it ALWAYS seem that you find the perfect outfit and its too small, or they don’t have the right size in stock?! Shoe stores do that too, for some reason. And whats with the sizes? Everything fashionable is never big enough.

I’m rather cuddly myself, a nice fourteen in the bust and a size 16-18 in the bottom half. There is nothing, count ‘em, nothing in my size that remotely looks fashionable in any of the ‘popular’ stores like Portmans [thank god for Crossroads].

2. Whats with the fashions anyways?! Everything is so…ugly! I would not be caught dead in 99% of the things that get paraded around on the catwalk, why wou7ld anyone buy them anyway? How can you call that fashionable? I mean, I wouldn’t even make my dog wear the stuff from Guicci and Prada and Stella McCartney. And why, when the ‘fashions’ come into stores, do they look nothing like the catwalks? I think I smell a rat…

3. Designer underwear.
Now, for a single girl like myself, underwear made by Jennifer Hawkins for example, really has no use unless you meet a guy to shag down at the local nightclub and they won’t remember what you’re wearing the next day anyway. Why bother? I mean, who would parade around in some of those lacey things just to stare at yourself in the mirror?

Speaking of the brassiere…why can’t I find a bra that FITS?! There is nothing in my price range that can even get around my left breast. Same with briefs. Its fishy.

4. High heels. Pure evil! How can ladies walk in some of the shoes I see on the street? The heels would snap the moment pressure was put on, and why pay all those thousands of dollars to get your feet fixed after you wear heels that nearly dislocate your feet?! Yet, this is fashion.

So...is fashion really fashion? Or just an excuse to make clothes with the leftovers from wrapping presents?

You be the judge!
