Oh how the rage burns inside of me! When I go to sleep those cinders stay white hot at the center losing no power during my slumber. I awake to the endless rage. I can’t tame it, calm it, or lower it. There is too much fuel everywhere. Why do I fucking care? Where is the damn off switch? Yes, Syrians are being massacred while the world does nothing, so what did you see what Snookie did last night? My coworker is an incompetent douchebag, big deal, get over it, change jobs, ignore him, report him, and quit. Customers don’t listen, try harder, let them buy what they want, stop whining. Republicans are trying to stop African Americans from voting, who cares, you’re not black. We are feeding kids coke, McDonalds, and hostess products, vegetables are more expensive than cheeseburgers, big deal, they should get better jobs, work out more, or stop having children. People keep shooting up schools, theaters, courthouses etc., and…we have the right to bear arms, its just a few bad apples, if those patrons had all been armed they would’ve lived. You’re gay and can’t be married? Stop being gay! The people getting on the highway are going 40 and the people getting off are going 80? Join them! Do it their way. Take a pill, chill out, have a drink, smoke some weed. Calm down, relax, take it easy, and don’t get so worked up. Well fuck you all! I am worked up, pissed off, and I don’t care who knows it. I would like to spend the rest of my life being the guy that slaps you in the face. Start lining up now, so I can get as many of you as I can before my death. Whack “now you think about what you did!” Yes I include myself, I am not the worlds greatest living being, and there are dumb things I do and lies I tell myself, but you know what? I appreciate people calling me on my bullshit. Oh sure, I will fight and deny it with more intensity than most, and even five years ago you might have gotten a lonnnnnng period of silent treatment in response,...

I appreciate people calling me on my bullshit. Oh sure, I will fight and deny it with more intensity than most, and even five years ago you might have gotten a lonnnnnng period of silent treatment in response, but thank god for the people with the balls to hand it to me. You guys have made me a better human being. But I am the crazy one! I am the one who cannot engage in a normal society. I am fucked up! That is the part that actually does make me crazy. I should be caring more about what I am wearing than what people are saying and doing? I should care more about the made up problems of the people on “reality” TV than what is literally happening around me? Fuck you, fuck you all. I don’t want to take a machine gun and start blasting, cause that would not help; I would blast you all with common sense guns. Of course I hate that phrase too. If it is so common then where is it? It seems like it is a pretty uncommon sense.

Am I genius? Am I the smartest person alive? Are the things I see invisible to everyone else? Why is my mom a homophobe? Why can’t I convince my own mother? Remember the movie Talk Radio? No of course you don’t. In the movie the main character is an angry guy trying to send truth out in a bullshit world, his producer doesn’t care, his audience doesn’t care, and he’s not sure why he cares. But before a crazy “fan” kills him he gets a call from a listener that actually hears what he’s saying, and for that moment he knows the kind of peace you get from being understood, from knowing that you are not alone. Is there any hope for that kind of peace on a semi regular basis? Can I find a woman to have an us vs. them life with? That would be lovely. So my question to you is, why the hell aren’t you more upset? Don’t tell me to calm down, I want you to get angry, but not you tea party bastards, I want you guys to figure out what you are actually mad about. Don’t be mad for no reason. Figure out what is making you angry. My assumption is that you are angry that a black man is president and you don’t own your own home. That Sean Penn is on your TV telling you about suffering in other countries but that commie fag is rich. Those people who are egging you on? They are rich too. Very rich, and very interested in keeping you poor, ignorant, and angry. I know booze is bad for me, but it tastes so damn good, so I drink it. But why are voting against your self-interest? You are on welfare and voting to cut it? People say the Democrats are no better, they are wrong. They are much better; it just so happens that they suck balls also. They are bought and paid for and will not stand up to their backers. We have to clap when Obama goes, well I thought it over and I guess being gay is okay. Really? Just figured that out now? And I am supposed to be happy about that? What will your next discovery be? Pollution bad for environment? He’s mad that the bankers are flaunting the money that he gave them? Oh his second term, that is when he’s going to really try, right? That is what I am supposed to believe.

The way I see it, if you are Republican you are selfish at best, and if you are a democrat then you are an optimistic idiot. How can we have a third party? The smart party? People would boo and throw rocks. We have the government we deserve, probably much better than we deserve. It’s been like this since day one. Galileo is sitting there trying to convince someone of fact. Do you know what that is like? To try and convince a person about a fact? That is a hell the Greeks did not even imagine, fuck the boulder up the hill shit, and spend eternity trying to convince a fucktard that 2 plus 2 is 4. That is hell. We can just agree to disagree? Fuck you. I agree that you’re a goddamned idiot is what I agree to. This is just where you and I disagree. Yes that was the fucking point right? You said some dumbass thing, and now I am challenging you on it. We disagree, that’s how it fucking works. So I already agreed to disagree, now I a moment of blind optimism I am trying to inject some light into your dark empty head. Or god willing maybe you will convince me to be a zombie and I can finally “get over it” Maybe then I will find toilet humor funny, gay innuendos hilarious, boorish behavior acceptable, not give a shit about anyone outside of my tiny circle and be content. No chance you bastards; I will be giving you shit till I die, so suck it.
