“Psychologists call it “learned helplessness” when a person believes, as I did during my youth, that the choices I made had no effect on the outcomes in my life.” JD Vance, Hillbilly Elegy I read that on Facebook today. I haven't read the book and it doesn't sound like one I might like so I probably won't. It's a good quote though. It is by the guy who called Trump an idiot who is probably the next vice president. Somebody called me a victim. I didn't respond. The point? I don't think I had one. Every dumb decision I made I made by myself. I worked a job I hated because I wasn't man enough to change things. I was fat and unhealthy because I hung around with dumb asses who did the same thing. Drunks shouldn't spend Saturday night with a drunk. I sat on my ass and waited for my ship to come in while telling you there was no damn ship. Nobody made my choices. My parents were tough who did their best. I am trying to get my life better after years of living a...

There are two kinds of people. People who talk shit and people who get shit done. Don't talk about shit unless you are getting shit done So I ran across this one guy who hates everything. If you saw his posts, he shits on everything. Does he do shit? No but he talks shit and wipes it on whoever he disagrees. He’s a churchie but you can’t really tell. He self-identifies as churchie but he's just a bullshitter who doesn't know it. He’s more of a wanker who posts holy roller shit once in a while but mostly he bitches about life and politics.  America is broken but talking shit doesn’t do shit. That’s just wanking when you were wishing you were in love. You want a better life? Get off your ass instead of complaining about your life. You want the world to change? Stop your moaning and get your ass making a difference. If you get a sliver while chopping wood to build a house, man up. Lick that wound and just keep building.  I watch the MAGA people. They are just like whatever is ...

Mooning the Prophet I'm not French. Some French people piss me off. But I sure as hell won't kiss ISIS just because they murdered a lot of Frenchies. It is no secret that ISIS is masturbating in front of pictures of Mohammed. They have to because thy know they won't be fucking any virgins in the Promised Land.  I have some churchie friends. Half are nutjobs who hate Barack Obama and are paranoid freaks. You know what they won't do? Bomb a damn stadium. They have their crazies but not a whole group of them. Even the incestuous Westboro Bapatist Church, the damn fools they are, won't do it. They shout like the group of assholes they are but they won't kill anyone. I don't what France should do. They should gear up and beat the living shit out of the next bastard the who tries to do this bullshit. The damn atheists there have more trouble with religion than America has. My ass isn't in the picture. I'm too busy shitting on a Kora...

I'm no theologian. Anybody who knows me anywhere knows I think a lot of church people are full of shit. OK. That's a little over the top because I know some churchies who seem like regular people. They seem like they do what they should be doing and don't pretend to be perfect. I respect those. Some talk to damn much about shit they hate so those people are full of crap. The other ones bitch about what other believe and they are full of shit too. Can't get a straight answer out of them. Facebook is full of this. Then there are the bastards who want me to read a book whenever I ask them a question. What hell am I, a librarian? The show-offs are out there, "Look at me, I'm a holy roller." These fools brag about any damn thing they do. Keep your joy in your pants, would you? None of these freaks are as bad the Scientologists, though. I know, I know, John Travolta and Tom Cruise are Scientologists. Who cares? They are rich and famous. Scientologists ...

I'm looking around. I always do. People are bitter, bitchy, moaning, blaming everyone else for their miserable lives. They are miserable because improving their life takes risk, and risk scares them to death. So they choose to be bitter instead of happy. They yell about free they are but wear self-installed handcuffs thicker than Grant's Tomb. They howl about I need religion and lived scared. What's your politics or religion done for you? They whine about how religion is what causes all the unhappiness but how happy has their atheism made you? The Facebook politicians and bar stall economists are just as bad. They know what's wrong with this country but prefer to tell me than to get involved. No one really gives a shit that says they do. Well, some really do, but they never say anything about. They are too happy making a difference in their lives and the world.

I've said it before. I do not understand why people say Merry Christmas. When most of the Christians I see are about who they hate, I cannot tell why the hell they became Christians. New York is full of all that. We aren't all pansified nicey nice people, but hate is hate. You know the crowd, "Shoot them first, then let God sort them out." This bullshit bumper sticker religion is not what I'm gonna hear tonight when my buddy Leonard drags my ass to his church. We will sing, lalala, then we'll hit a pub and he will bitch about how awful those damn Muslims, Hindus, atheists and Boston Red Sox fans are. I don't give a damn if he disagrees with them, and I totally agree with him about the BoSox, but what game is he playing? Here's a guy I am glad doesn't own a gun. Good guy in every other way, but he is a bastard when it comes to people he doesn't like. I like Christmas carols. I like the Salvation Army Santas. I like people stepping up and vol...

I'm ranting. I'm raving. You got a guy in Florida who is scared, so he is burning a few books. Big deal. Then, you've got every politician shoving his ass on the road telling him it is a bad idea. It is a bad idea, but it is this guy's right to be foolish. Yeah, I get that Muslims think the Koran is holier than thou. That's their right. Jacking the guy that disagrees? That ain't their right. Jack him, and look out. The American fools will come back and kick some ass. We are a country of fools, as is our right. Nice photo, huh? Ujena Baha Belted Bikini Swimsuit

I ran into a guy on the subway ranting about Muslims. We started talking politics, and this guy had a corncob up his rear. He hates Muslims. I asked what he believed. All he said was, "I'm not a Muslim." Well, duh. What a moron. What he doesn't believe I don't give a damn about. What he does believe is all I wanted to know. All I know is this guy is one afraid son of a bitch. That's New York City for you. We got them all, including paranoid nutjobs. Why not just tell me you aren't a Martian?  Or from Ork? This is Mork calling Orsen I don't get it. People are afraid of themselves. The dillweed on the subway didn't even know what he thought. Where the hell am I? I'm in New York City, the Big Apple. I expect backwater hick talk in the sticks. Or maybe Flushing. Not here. I tell you, I have been asking people people why they believe whatever it is they believe. The Muslim driving my taxi last week told me. He was polite about it. I guess Chr...

Wankers all in a tizzy that nutcase Robertson yacked. Who is the idiot? Robertson or the boneheads all jacked up agreeeing or disagreeing with what he said? Lemme tell you, some little girl in Haiti is starving while wankers are wanking their wankers over what a wankers wanked them with. You got it? In other words, shut the hell up about Robertson or loudmouth Limbaugh and donate to Haiti or to some refugee center near you. NYC has 'em. You might have them too.

I had one person respond here all in a pissy fit that I have no time for religion. Religion is fine. I don't care. It is part of America's freedom, and I'm the last guy to want to take that away from you. But let me tell you, I groan when I hear or read someone upset that I think holy rollers have it wrong. I'll lay it out for you. There are a few kinds of holy rollers. I'm not talking denominations and whatever. That's an entirely different something. I'm talking personality types. All but one do not have my respect. See the last category. Some cram what they believe down your throat. Every conversation has an agenda. Why don't you just join Amway? I'm not talking about the guy with the bullhorn the cops keep chasing out of Times Square. I'm talking about people I know. They don't want me to be their friend. They want me to be their little project. Get bent.   Some say they believe xyz and then live abc. Forget that noise. You don'...
