The Super Bowl

I don't really have much to say. I'm not watching it, but I do know that the Ravens and the Forty-Niners are playing. I don't really care who wins- I really don't. 
The only reason I bothered making a post is cause the Super Bowl is the only exciting thing that's happened recently. It seems people aren't as enthusiastic about the Super Bowl as they usually are. Maybe cause crappy teams are playing (no offense) or maybe because this crappy economy is making everyone too depressed to go out and buy junk food, which is healthy, but also sad. During my last few visits to the store, no one was going around frantically, buying chips and chip dip before the Super Bowl like they did last year. I mean, I see why, but it's still sad. 
To be honest, I didn't even know the Super Bowl was today until someone in my family told me. I haven't heard much about it till today and I doubt many people are watching it. 
Sorry if this seems too negative. It's just, no one has been very enthusiastic about the whole Super Bowl this year, not even the people playing in it, although they should be. I myself am not very enthusiastic about it this year, cause I'm not particularly fond of either team, although I hate the Ravens less. Again, no offense to anyone. 
I shouldn't have written this, cause it's pointless and maybe depressing or offensive to some people. Like I said, I only did it cause the Super Bowl is something to talk about, and besides the Lance Armstrong thing that's been on the news, it's the only interesting thing that's happened in 2013. Again, I'm not trying to bring anyone down, offend anyone, or depress them. It's just the cold hard truth that 2013 hasn't been too great so far and the Super Bowl kind of sucks. It could be over, and I wouldn't know. Maybe it was over hours ago. Maybe it's still going on. Like I said, I'm not really watching it. 

Comments

What the Hell do I have to do to get comments from you stupid people?! Is it too much work to simply make a nice- or even nasty- comment to my writing? You know, I put thought and hard work into these posts. Maybe they're biased, insignificant rants, but they're still rants about things that matter to me and I think a little encouragement would be nice. I bet even if I bitched all ******* day, I STILL wouldn't get any comments, would I? I bet as you're reading this, you have no intentions of commenting, do you? Don't deny it. 
God people are lazy. 1 comment from someone who isn't my friend or family would be nice. ONE ******* COMMENT!!! I'm angry as Hell but I still have the decency to block out the worst curse words. Now will some nice random person reading this PLEASE be considerate and at least tell me what the Hell they think of my posts? You can tell me I'm a whiny bitch who's wasting her breath and time, I don't care! Just let me know you're not sooo lazy that you can't even comment!!!! 

Lance Armstrong

What do you think about Lance Armstrong? I didn't really know much about him until recently. I mean, I knew he was a famous biker and stuff, but I didn't know much about him. Well, now the word's out that he cheated and used enhancement drugs. This is really controversial, but people could really take either side. Even though he lied to America, he does feel the shame, and I know he's an idiot, but I can't help but feel kind of sorry for him. 
I pity him because no matter what he says, he can't go back and no one will ever let him live this down. His life is ruined, although it's his own fault. Of course, he shouldn't've taken drugs in the first place, but he's admitted to making a horrible mistake and letting everyone down. 
The reasons one might forgive him is because he apologized, admitted to his huge mistake, 
and I think has felt the embarrassment, shame, and punishment he knows he deserves. 
However, the reasons not to forgive him is that he LIED to the whole world. He was such an 
inspiration to so many people. Now those people are realizing they were played for fools, and 
they probably are feeling anger or disappointment or both. 
The French knew he cheated- or at least said it to be nasty or something, but they were right! 
Armstrong ruined people when he said, "I have never used drugs" because those people 
were right and they knew it, or wanted to believe it, but just because Armstrong was so great, 
all his fans defended him and I don't think anyone really looked at the facts. They just said, 
"He didn't take drugs!!!" Well, he DID, and even now that we know it, those people who were 
right all along STILL aren't getting credit. Everyone's going on about him taking drugs and 
betraying everyone, blah, blah, blah. But we still aren't apologizing to those who were right 
about him doping. Well, I know it is NOT my duty to apologize for those assholes who didn't apologize, but I will anyway. 
To the people who knew that Armstrong doped, I apologize on behalf of the people who haven't apologize. You were right all along, and the people who defended Armstrong should be almost as ashamed as him. Not as much, but almost. 
Anyway, I feel sorry for Lance Armstrong, but I feel worse for the lives he's ruined. I hope those who didn't get their apologies do and I hope Lance stays clean and everyone finally lets this shit blow over. There's probably no chance of this being forgotten, but we can hope. 
P.S. I hope those who thought he was their hero rethink things and get a new hero who 
doesn't take drugs. Also, no offense to Armstrong if he's reading this. I don't mean to offend 
him, I just want him to feel ashamed. I'm not sure he does, because he only apologize after he was caught and before, he denied everything. But like I said, it's two-sided. 

2013

2013

It's 2013! That's really all I have to say, so I don't know why I bothered making a whole post. Well, anyway, I hope you all had a good New Year's Eve party and I hope 2013 is better than 2012, which is quite possible. 

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Happy New Year!!! Almost

It's New Year's Eve. 2013 is mere hours away!!! People are going to be doing a lot of things before midnight; writing resolutions, getting drunk, and eating as much junk food as they can before they have to follow their "lose ten pounds" resolution. 
I think all the 2000's have been good, but 2008, 2009, and 2010 were really good in my opinion. I guess 2011 and 2012 have been okay, although people have been freaking out all year about the Apocalypse. Well, now it's 2013 and all those morons can just shut up. 
I'm hoping 2013 is good. I hope the economy gets better and I hope there are new TV shows that don't suck ass like the ones on TV now. I mean, there have been a LOT of shitty TV shows this year. I didn't watch any of them. 
I hope there aren't many natural disasters or school shootings and I hope there are no bombing or terrorist attacks. I hope the government gets its act together and I hope China and Taiwan settle their long-lived dispute over nothing, although that probably won't happen in 2013 or even 2014, but I hope it happens someday. 
I also hope gas prices go down. I hope no one does anything too stupid or dangerous or anything. I hope more smart people are born this year to make our future much more bearable. 
I have personal goals for myself, but I'm probably not going to share them. But anyway, I hope the government shapes up, the countries at war leave their enemies and/or us alone, and that no really bad things happen. Happy New Year!!!

Politicians

Politicians- Republican and Democratic- are ass****s. Most of them know it. I'm mostly talking about our recent U.S. Presidents, such as Nixon, Bush and Obama. 
Just so you know, I'm not on either side of the Republicans, nor the Democrats. I'm just telling the facts here. 
Nixon was a lying son-of-a-bitch. He was a crook and went down in history as one of our worst presidents. Bush (the second) was horrible too. He was in office during 9/11 and he let it happen. He should have gotten off his ass, stopped reading his book to little children, and taken action. I agree there wasn't much he could do, but the fact he didn't try is the real disappointment. 
Obama has done some bad things and made some bad decisions. He wouldn't open the oil pipelines to Canada and now I think China has it. Because he is our current president, I can't say much about him without offending the f***ing world, but all I'll say is I'm not 100% sure he's Christian and I'm not 100% sure he's American. He also is trying to take away our weapons and he spent his whole first term trying to find ways of getting elected again. Hopefully we'll survive the next four years. We survived Nixon and Bush II so I think there's a chance. 
Also, Obama let the Ambassador of Libya die when they needed aid, and he also supports the Syrian rebels. He took credit for killing Bin Laden, but he wouldn't have taken the blame if Bin Laden had gotten away. Of course, every politician now days would do the same, which is kind of the point here. Our last few presidents have been idiots. 
I know this is not what our Founding Fathers wanted America to be like. George Washington didn't even want to be King because he believed in equality and he didn't want too much power. Look at us now! All our governors and presidents and senators are mad with power. The government wants to control all the citizens' lives, and that's what Washington and Jefferson were trying to avoid when they came up with the system. It's really a shame, what we've become. 

Sad Songs

Are there ever songs that just make you cry when you hear them? Maybe I'm just emotional, but a lot of songs make me cry when I listen to them. Below of some of the songs that are sad to me, either because of the lyrics, or the tunes. Even some with happy lyrics make me cry when the melodies are so sad. It's mostly songs about unrequited love that make me cry. Here are some- but not all- the songs that I find really sad.

• Grow Up - Taylor Swift 
• What Could Have Been Love - Aerosmith 
• The Cat Carol 
• Things I'll Never Say - Avril Lavigne 
• The One That Got Away - Katy Perry
