(Let me start off by saying that I'm, in no way, planning on quoting scripture or any other type of religious text. I only used that title as a means to convey that I plan to talk a lot of hate towards people doing things they shouldn't.)
What has happened with the world of entertainment these days? Every third movie, song, or tv show you see (or hear) is a remake of something that has already been done. What happened to creativity? What happened to new ideas?
I know it's a tactic that has been employed for years, but unless you take the original concept and completely re-do it in a totally different way, you're just copying someone else's work and resubmitting it. Telling the same story with different actors, is just trying to cash in on the popularity of the old movie. Making music where half the song is just samples of someone else's hit song, is being lazy.
Maybe I'm just being pissy, but I hate when I'm out and about and I hear a beat or guitar riff from Queen, or The Police, or any other badass song from my youth, and when I think the song is about to start.... some thug starts rappin about shit. P Puff Diddy Daddy has no right to ruin my favorite tunes. And seeing as how he considers himself an artist, why does he need someone else's hit to help him along?
I guess society is getting as lazy as everyone says. Get as much as you can, for as little effort as possible. Society sucks. Work for it, have pride in your achievements, and a little self respect as well. Coasting on someone else's success is pitiful.
I'm done bitching for tonight.

Its All Good....
If you've been reading the crap I've written since the beginning, you might be surprised by what I'm going to say here shortly. The majority of the drivel that has been posted on here is angry, annoyed, or at the very least harshly opinionated.
Here comes the crazy...
I actually have a pretty good life. I have a good job, awesome friends, and a loving family. I make good money, have good taste in music, look absolutely debonair in whatever I wear, and am just an all around awesome dude. And I know how to brag and lie about myself in the most obvious way possible!
Seriously though, life is good. As long as you look at the right way. If you cling to all the setbacks and bad experiences, then life will suck for you. If you spend time whining about a bad experience, you are only locking yourself into that point in time. One of the things that bothers me most is listening to people whine and bitch, for long periods of time, about how someone screwed them over. Move on. Obviously they don't deserve your attention.
Its hard to believe the amount of times that I've read a certain dialogue. Back in the MySpace times, and in the FB era too. And it usually goes something like this:
"I met this guy/girl tonight, he/she is really hot. I feel the magic."
1 week later: FB status changed to "In A Relationship" and the dialogue continues:
"My boyfriend/girlfriend is the greatest!"
1 more week later: "The love of my life is taking me out to dinner and a movie."
The next week: "I hate liars and cheaters, love is BS, all men/women suck."
Do you get my point of all this? Your decisions make who you are. if you made a bad decision, accept it, learn from it, and move on. Life is good. Being alive is good. Whats the point in worrying about the bad stuff? That's just wasted time.
We have only a limited amount of time that we can spend as living beings, why waste it focusing on the negative? Instead of thinking stuff like "Why doesn't he/she like me?" Think more like: "Its their loss, I'm gonna go have fun with my friends instead."
Life can be good, if you really want it to be.

P.S. It's still OK to be annoyed by stupid people.
