At what point do we, as a society, tell people “produce or get the fuck out”.

Sitting at work today, I wondered why I do it.  Why do I put up with the bullshit? Why do I contribute to a system that just rewards laziness and irresponsibility.  Why don’t I do like everyone does and have my ass wiped for me by the government?

People waltz around without a care in the world fully knowing that the government will provide them with a place to live, food on the table, and their basic needs; a luxury that I do not have.  I stand there, 9 hours a day, serving these people that have contributed NOTHING to the well-being or advancement of society.  They are the hemlock, the blight ; feeding off of us who bust our asses to make ends meet.  I’m at work, they are not.  I bust my ass to do whats right and they just bitch and leech and contribute nothing.  I do everything for them, but what do they do for -me-?  Help thine neighbor is a two way street and all I see are red street reflectors.

They are the proverbial royalty, and we are the serfs who tend to the farmlands so they royalty can eat.  They wake up at 3pm when I’m at work by 9am.  They have no cares in the world other than how they are going to waste away their day living off of their SSI or disability check due to the forms that some quack for an MD that bought their pity-party story signed off on.  Their blight-filled ride is just enhanced by narcotics that WE as taxpayers pay for to treat some “condition” that is a candy-coated rationalization for addiction and abuse.

Sure there are exceptions to this.  People who want to work whom are physically unable to do so.  People with small children that they cannot leave unattended.  There is an exception to every rule, however those people should be as angry as I am because the hemlock above waste they resources that they can use to get into a position of production.  The working class pays to help those who cant, not those who wont.  Why should a man learn to fish when the town provides him with all the fish he can eat?

But no, we rationalize it away that we are ‘helping’ whilst cowering under the heavy stick of political correctness and the squishy “can’t offend anyone” mindset.  We hide in fear of being tagged with stereotypical or racial remarks as the leeches of society grasp at straws to justify their behavior. Race cards get thrown down, feelings get hurt.  People cant take the harsh reality of the situation and would rather just throw money at a problem and pretend it doesn’t exist.  Now the money is running out, and the problem wants their paycheck.

There isn’t an easy solution to this problem, nor am I trying to state one here.  With California nose-diving into the financial ground the boil of society is about to come to a head, and I don’t think we as society are prepared to face the monster that we have created.

I dont know why I keep on giving octomom more air-time on here, but I really do like to point out how utterly stupid she is.

• Octomom’s house is about to be defaulted. Thats right, booted out into the street.  Maybe she can use some of the cash she got from those interviews to pay off her mom’s house.  Wait, that would be planning ahead, HAHAHAHA!
• Octomom was offered $1 million dollars if she would star in one porn movie.  She would also get 1 year of health coverage for her and all of her kids.
• Octomom might not be able to take her kids home until she proves that she is capable of taking care of all of them.

Really, this woman is a distillation of what is wrong in society today.  She obviously does not plan ahead, she fucks up royally, and shes going to come out of this smelling like a rose with more cash than I’ll ever make.

What does that teach you kids?  We reward you to be irresponsible.  However you have to REALLY fuck up before the checks and money start coming in.

The more and more I hear about the idiot Octomom the more and more furious I get.  You know what the book deals and movie deals and the attention teaches us all?

You will always be rewarded if you fuck up big enough.

People will donate and give her stuff because they “feel sorry for the children” yet isn’t that all this psychotic bitch wants is for people to “love” her, people to “feel sorry for her”.  Have you seen her begging website (I’m not going to link it here because I don’t want to increase her pagerank) that she will probably go and use the money for stuff other than food and diapers for her children?  Its fucking pittiful.  She is preying on the good nature of people to help out those in need and the only reason why people are helping her out is because of the children who have NO SAY and who had NO SAY in this whole ordeal.  Why punish the children when their mom is fucking crazy?

Think how public opinion would be different if she got on the interview and said “Listen, I fucked up.  I really didn’t want all of these kids, I just wanted one more and look what happened.” However she was smug and happy and ‘look at me world’.  Thats why people are pissed.

Oh, and now it comes out that the Octomom has been writing letters to Angelina Jolie.

The woman is a trainwreck.  I stand by my 1 year before she kills herself.

Warning! This post may make me look like an asshole.  Wait, probably because I’m responsible, unlike who I am ranting about.

This post is dedicated to Nadya Suleman AKA Octomom, someone who has to be the stupidest twat on the planet.  This woman, obviously in need of some Haldol or a good swift kick to the face, is more entertaining/sad/train-wreckish than 80 year old people having sex.

Time-line for my own records (so I can look back in 10 years when all of her kids are in prison/foster care):

• Started as a hero for delivering 8 kids.  People were ecstatic and happy for her.
• Public started to turn when they found out she was single
• Things got worse when it was brought out that she had 6 kids already
• It got sad when it was found out she lived with her mom
• Its depressing when it was found out that she is on food stamps
• Had a date with a wood-chipper when revealed that of her 6 non-ICU kids, 1 of them has autism and 2 of them have developmental problems.
  

I don’t even know where to begin.

1. No Job
2. No Money
3. Has 6 children already.  One is autistic – Two have some developmental issues
   
4. She has no way to support herself.
5. During her interview, she uses God to rationalize her decision.  That her unused eggs should have a chance of life.  Wow.. just.. wow….
6. She is using student loans to pay for her children.  Like wtf?
7. Bitch wants to be like Angelina Jolie.  She denies it, but just LOOK AT HER.
   

Take a realistic look at this.  Single mothers have a hard enough time with 1 or 2 children.  How can she have 6 PLUS 8 newborns and actually expect to hold a job that pays enough to support all of them?  Not even looking at the money part, how can she have enough hours in the day to spend with each child so they will grow up to be well balanced and nurtured?  Her parents have disowned her, its just her with 14 kids under the age of 7!

She claims she is not on welfare, but she gets SSI checks for 3 of her 6 non-newborn children because they are disabled.  Yeah, you read that right.  “Special Needs” children + 3 “normal” + 8 newborns.  I’m not even going to bring up food stamps because thats just a drop of piss in the ocean of wtf’ness.

Wait wait, she is going to work to support all of them -and- find the time to spend with all of them.  She could be the inventor of the 40 hour day!  This is assuming all 8 grow up to be healthy and happy.  Since the previous batch of children had some issues, I’d be -very- surprised if they all turned out ‘normal’ (well, as normal as you can be when your mother is fucking psychotic).

During the interview, its obvious that her lips were redone.  Older pictures show her lips to be ‘normal’ and now they are huge.

If that doesnt piss you off enough – Kaiser is asking for MediCal (Calfornia’s Medicaid Program) to pick up the tab for the birth/ICU!

The revelation, brought to light by the Los Angeles Times, stoked concerns that Suleman, 33, will become a heavier drain on public assistance once her six new sons and two new daughters are sent home in a few weeks from Kaiser Permanente Bellflower Medical Center, where they were born Jan. 26. They are the U.S.’s oldest surviving octuplets. The newspaper also reported that Kaiser has asked California’s health plan for the poor, which is Medi-Cal, to cover the enormous cost of delivering the babies.

HAHAHAHA! The state that is probably going to give me an IOU as a tax-return is most-likely going to foot the bill for a crazy bitch’s psychotic escapades in baby-making!  I hope California tells Kaiser to fuck themselves.  This is California, of course they wont.   This makes me sick.  Here is a woman who can’t afford the 6 she already has, the country is delving deeper in a recession, California is broke, people are out of work, shes $50k in debt (stated in the interview) does not have enough hours in the day to work + take care of her existing children,  and then she has 8 more kids?  Wow, just…wow..  She has absolutely zero idea what shes up against.  Zero.  Zero zero!  She said that one of her kids had colic for 14 hours a day and it was a handful, yeah, multiply that by 8 now!  She has made a huge problem for herself and is unable to grasp how deep of shit she is in.

If we are looking at the ‘this is sad’ scale, this woman is so far off the chart that she’s circled back around again!  I’m putting a bet that she’ll kill herself within the year.  She will cave due to the pressure of 8 screaming infants + 3 “normal” kids + 3 disabled kids and just off herself.

00:40 <corvus> Bets if octomom will off herself within the year
00:40 <corvus> yay or ney
00:40 <n6ko> hopefully but that kinda crazy seems to live forever like a black hole of refuckintarded

Before you comment here saying how much of an asshole I am (we support OpenID for your LJ/DJ commenting pleasure), remember that -responsible- people are choosing to not have children because they cannot afford them in these economic times or life changes prevent putting that kid first.

One of my really good friends bitched about how they weren’t getting any of my RPG mailing list emails (the list has like 5 people on it.  Too many to remember to mail individually).  They have an sbc-global.net email address *sigh* So I decided to log into the server and see whats going on.  This is what I received:
Jan 11 17:36:32 vadept qmail: 1231724192.132200 delivery 42192: failure: Connected_to_207.115.20.21_but_sender_was_rejected./Remote_host_said:_553_5.3.0_flpi189_-_n0C1aVjR003857,_DNSBL:521<_209.142.3.151_>_is_blocked.__For_information_see_http://att.net/blocks/

Hm, lets see how much FAIL AT&T can give me:

• http://att.net/blocks/ gives me a 404 error.  Way to go!
• My email server is on zero RBL’s and gets a clean bill of health from Spamhaus.
• Googling the error points me to: http://worldnet.att.net/general-info/521.html
• They have a link to a form there, its at http://www.att.net/general-info/bls_info/block_admin.html

Now here is where the snowball of stupdity just keeps on growing.  Now you have to paste in your error into the form box, but the form box is way too small to paste the entire message error in.  Furthermore it bitches if it sees any special characters (say, like < > which are PRESENT IN ITS FUCKING ERROR).  So in the “what changes have you made” section, I said that their error-message link was broken, the error pasting was too small, and i’m not on any RBL’s.

So if you’re an AT&T admin reading this, please fix your shit.  From one admin to another this looks really bad.  I know you’re a big badass telco/world-domination company, but not fixing this is just going to have my friend drop your service like a hooker with herpes and give their money to a company that has their shit together.

Dear Mr Tyler Johnson (#24) of the ECHL Ref Squad.

You don’t know me, but I am a fan of the Stockton Thunder. On the playoff game against the Las Vegas Wranglers, I witnessed so many missed, botched, and generally bad calls that not only did I feel sorry for you, but I felt embarrassed for you.

The final call of the night that lost us the game was your crowning achievement. You see, I was at glass level, and since there was a delayed penalty on the play I was watching for you to blow the whistle to end the play once Las Vegas regained control of the puck. However you never did. Stockton’s player had the puck for a full 2 to 3 seconds and no whistle was blown. We scored to win, but you waved it off saying that it was made after the whistle blew. Does the puck glancing off of the goalie to go into the net count as “possession” and is grounds to end the play? How can the whistle blow when you in fact never blew it? You wonder why not only myself, the rest of the fans, AND the entire team went ballistic on you. You made a horrible call. You screwed up big time and did not have the courage to admit it. You skated off with your tail between your legs and hid while the players gave you dirty looks and the crowd threw things at you. You see, we see everything, and the amount of blantant in-your-face calls that you “missed” were more than we could take. Everyone could see the look on your face that you in fact realized your error, but just sat there and did nothing.

Thanks a lot, thanks for costing my team the win over the #1 team in our league. Thanks for showing our players that the entire game of hockey is not how hard you play, or how much you practice, but what “favors” you give to the head ref.

Theres nothing worse than losing an entire day to being sick. However Tylenol makes these little night and day candy coated pills that make life happy.

This post is driven by cold medication.

Am I the only one who thinks that the “privacy” service that most internet registrars is just a fucking scam? I mean they got themselves into this mess with people harvesting information from our whois info, and yet they have the balls to charge us to make that information “private”? This shit should of been private right from the get-go, and the registrars decided to cash in on it.

Lets make a huge problem that in 5 years we will be able to make a “fix” and rake in the cash. Sounds like a Microsoft product.

So I decide to get on chromehounds today to play (like I usually do every night) when I get a message that my Xbox LIVE account has been suspended. Hm, thats wierd, I dont remember pissing anyone off (or even playing anyone within the past few days or so). It says that I’m unbanned as of 3/13/08. I check my email and I recieve this:

What the fuck? What content did I have on there that was fucking inappropriate? So I call, and are promptly wait on hold for a bazillion years. Not even any fucking hold music. You would think that with 4.5 x 10^99 dollars Microsoft can sport a little hold music for us poor saps that need to call. So I wait, and wait, and wait and wait with only silence to keep me company on the phone.

Once the rep picked up (who was located in India, go figure) this is what happened.

So I’m walking around in my local gunstore looking at revolvers, and while I’m browsing the tons of overpriced Taurus’ I overhear a conversation between a store employee and a potential gun buyer.

This guy was either a cop or some sort of security guard.  He was obviously looking for something to carry concealed (since I doubt you’d strap a 3″ subnose revolver or Kimber 1911 to your hip).  He had not one clue about guns.  He was asking the most rudamentry and stupid questions (what caliber should I get, why does the 1911 have to be cocked and locked, SA vs DA triggers, etc).  Here is a guy who knows nothing about handguns who (unlike myself) has a license to carry a concealed weapon. 

Now am I the only one who find something wrong with that?  You have me who has been shooting handguns/rifles for a good part of 20+ years, handloads his own ammo, has more guns that you can shake a stick at, can recite the ballistics and reloading data of all of the major rifle/handgun calibers, and the wonderful city of Stockton denies my CCW permit even though I’ve been held up at gunpoint twice while at work.  Lets just ignore the fact that I have a doctorate, am educated, and have access to more narcotics than a Grateful Dead concert.

The some dipshit rent-a-cop gets a CCW who knows nothing about handguns, can barely tell the difference between a 1911 and a sig, and has the gall to completely blow me off when I tell him from a non-salesman standpoint that he is going to need a nice Galco leather IWB holster to make that subcompact Kimber comfortable to carry 9+ hours a day.  Hell, If I were looking for a new gun, and someone said “You know, I have that, and to get the most out of it you’ll need *real world advice here*” I would be fucking grateful and ask HIM questions, not the salesman.

I mean hell, what do I know, I’m obviously not some Rent-A-Cop who is looking for an automatic in 38 special (*sigh*).  I almost left when he asked how many bullets the clip held (A ‘clip’ refers to a M1-Garand en-bloc clip or a moonclip.  He wanted to know how many rounds the magazine held.  Bullets are the part that shoot out of the gun, a round is the unfired bullet + casing + powder).

I left at the part where he is arguing with the guy who works there about not needing moon-clips for a revolver chambered in 45-ACP (for those at home, 45ACP is rimless, and revolvers need a rim for proper headspacing, so a moonclip puts an artificial ‘rim’ on a rimless auto cartridge).  I could tell the salesman was starting to get annoyed, and an off-duty cop in there decided to set him straight and just told him what he needs for a backup gun.

I mean really, If you are going to have a CCW don’t be a dick to those who know more than you do.
