For shame…

I recall the days in eons since past when one could believe that everyone – no matter who they were – was not inherently stupid, that ignorance was the core and idiocy was but a temporary physical rendering.

Now I see otherwise. Some people are just dim-witted, unintelligent, and dense. No two ways about it. You’re not “hilariously naïve” or “innocently raw”, just plain, unequivocally brainless.

And here is a list of the fools in question:

R.I.P Quality

I just saw this on a forum I frequent – well, I frequent the website, I occasionally venture into the forums.  It was a topic about The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion but somebody leaped on the chance to take the mick (the original poster felt he was qualified to answer any question, so someone asked “any question” – not relating to Oblivion).

OK really funney but guess what im gonna answer all of them. I think gays can be bonded but unfortunatly the word marrigae means the formal union of a man and a woman, typically recognized by law, by which
they become husband and wife. (Oxford American Dictionary) I feel that the redefining of this word is unjust and should not be changed. Gays can be boned but they can not be married. Women deserive to have as many rigths as men unfortunatly, although we do not want to admit it, men do treat women differently. In the work place but also in many pirvate areas of life. Do you ever see male babysiters? Male nurses (meet the fockers doesn’t count). Women are treated diferently. But on the side of men i must say the many femenist bitchs talk about womens rights but when they piss off a dude that guy cant beat the **** out of her like he would do with another guy, equal rights all around? I think not. Abortion is a touchy issue, and ill end it in one sentace, its a child not a chioce. Snakes on a plane will suck but i bet 90% of people in this forum will see it. Myself included. The War in Iraq has many faces. I think that America had an obligation to go there. Sadam Hussan was an evil man. He torchered the people of Iraq and should have been put out of power. But, what of the wepons of mass destruction? I would say that they did exites but a commonly over looked fact is that UN inspecters gave him a year to get rid of them. He also would not let people in his contry to inspect. So if he did not had them he miss lead them to believe he did. And lets not forget about 9/11. Sadam harbored terrorists in Iraq and getting rid of him was a move to prevent more terrorist acts in America. Ceasefire in the middle east never last long enough, like Cepple Show or South Park, or those percieous moments that we share with friends and family.

The bold bit gave me the giggles but by Satan what a dreadful post in general.  And this from one of the longest running (since ‘94/5) gaming sites with a fairly respectable reputation and extensive history and archive on TES.   Oh well, quality never was prevalent I guess.

I haven’t done much of anything lately.  I wasn’t feeling brilliant yesterday but it’s a tad depressing when being ill is the highlight of your month.  I’m not feeling myself admitedly.  I don’t know what it is but I’m just feeling distant.  I had a five day weekend, which should have been fantastic, but I spent much of it in bed.  And not in the good way either.  Man was I tired.  And I just haven’t had the heart to do much of anything.   Maybe I’m just having an off week.

Hmm.  Perhaps a rant about small children would cheer me up.

How not to deal with anti-social behaviour

If there’s one thing this legislature-happy government has failed to do (among the gazillion other things), it’s deal with anti-social behaviour and Britain’s increasing social problems in the correct way. For those across the pond who may be unaware, we have something in Britain called an ASBO – an Anti-Social Behaviour Order – as well as CRASBOs (Criminal Related Anti-Social Behaviour Order). Can’t say I knew about the latter before I did some digging.

So what is an ASBO? It’s essentially a civil order that people get slammed with for engaging in “anti-social” behaviour that may have otherwise resulted “alarm, harassment, or distress to one or more persons not of the same household as him or herself”. Yes, this is the Justice System’s answer to a slap on the wrist. The thing is, what is anti-social behaviour? Is it dealing with the increase in drunken violence among younger age groups? No. Is it helping to maintain order by dissuading people from making trouble that intentionally upsets or intimidates people? Not exactly.
