I’m Trying to Insult Everyone.

Disclaimer: Anyone that posts anything on this blog that I consider off-topic will be blocked forever.

What is this blog about anyway? Hell if I know. Will just type away and see where it goes.

I you don’t feel insulted after reading this blog, I apologize. I will try harder next time to make sure I include you.

Blogs I don’t read: I don’t read recipe blogs. Kevin has a recipe section and that is where these belong. I don’t eat healthy, so you probably don’t have recipes that I would enjoy anyway. Animal rights blogs. Once you have read one, you have read them all. I don’t care if dogs in Romania, North Carolina, China or anywhere else need to be rescued. I won’t sign ten thousand petitions and have a million emails in my inbox because of it. Sex blogs. As a 60 year old, all I have is memories and I don’t really care what the latest sex fad is. Conspiracy blogs. There is usually a very simple explanation for it and you guys just make it to complicated. Poetry blogs. I’m sorry, but I don’t read wannabe poets. Write a book, get paid, and send me a copy. Earth/Karma/Good Vibrations blogs. If you can show me one child you saved from starvation, from bombing, from all the other atrocities of the world, I will give you some kudos. Christian blogs (gay or straight). I just can’t understand your perspective and desire to proselytize. Picture blogs. Yes, a picture is worth a thousand words, yours is just a waste of those thousand words. Conservative blogs. You continue to prove that you don’t care about anybody but yourselves. I’m sure there are others, I just didn’t get around to yours.

Blogs I do read: Kira’s. She at first seemed to be a conservative but has began questioning. Hamish’s. Just wish he would not wait for his kiwipolitics friends to blog about something. Labrea Tarpits. Don’t always reply, but find interesting. Kay’s. I’m sure that a couple centuries earlier she would have been burned at the stake in Salem. World Be Free’s. Only his political blogs, not his sex and religious ones. Stoned Crazy. He usually has something interesting to say. Temysplace. Damn, he just rocks. Moosehammer. Have to support my fellow gulf coast member (I’m originally from New Orleans). There are others, if I missed you let me know but don’t be surprised if you are not included.

I am here to promote human rights/social justice. I am not here for a popularity contest. I would love to see American youth use these social networking networks in the manner that the youth in North Africa, Middle East and other countries do. I firmly believe that if we would have had these tools in the 60s, we would live in a different and better world. I am a liberal. I am a fiscal and social liberal. Those who claim to be fiscal conservative and social liberals are liars.

I support the free people everywhere who want to have control of their own lives. Iran, Egypt, Tunisia, Libya, Syria, Bahrain, Yemen, Saudi Arabia, Morocco, Palestine, Jordan, Iraq and many other countries even if they choose governments that are not pro-West, pro-Israel.

    My snake has worms… Is that off topic?

  • FreeFall says:

    Hahahaha. Not offended one bit!
    But, as another disclaimer….I never send out emails or post comments:)
    Only postings.
    So, instead of in your face tactics, I give peoples a choice…read my blogs, or don’t.
    I do have to add.
    Fact: Signing just one petition will not change the world, but may change the world for some one, cause petitions work, and that’s a fact! πŸ˜‰

    Burned at the stake? Hey, I write about stuff like banana bread (or I’m pretty sure that I have at some point, somewhere, in the past),rufous sided towhees, solid New Englanders who do good work for a pittance, and the nice guy at Ace Hardware who screwed my licence plate on for me.

    And quite frequently, my father.

    Haven’t been in Salem in years. I would so much rather read the fine print on your home owners insurance policy than the attention whoring junk on some other blogs.

    I make darn good banana bread.

    I’m beginning to respect your perspectives more & more John. I might not agree with your views entirely …but it is refreshing to see someone who is genuinely concerned & desirous of voicing the issues that matter, rather than the self promotion of the ego. Not that I think I’m ‘there’, far from it…but it’s always nice to meet someone with depth & desire in virtuous causes such as freedom & justice. All the best.

  • LikaPika says:

    I’m always off topic when I’m straight onto the point. I’m ON topic when I stray so far no one knows what I mean. I am a contradiction… I make perfect sense.

    Allah.

    “As a 60 year old, all I have is memories and I don’t really care what the latest sex fad is”

    I am semi-retired from political blogs because politics on the whole bores me. I rarely even bother commenting on those blogs where some people simply say they cant understand what you are saying when they realise that they are losing the argument, or take offence at the fact that I have views that do not match their own. I also hate the shameless lies that some, mainly conservative, bloggers tell, and their irritating habit of producing “facts” from out of thin air and then getting emotional when challenged.

    I prefer socially conscious blogs that focus on the oppressed but somehow, I seem to have lost my inspiration to write of late. Thanks for the props

  • Incorrigible says:

    Hey- your Blog did not insult me…….. mind you… I may now have to go write in one of the above mentioned categories πŸ˜‰

  • moosehammer says:

    I really tried to feel insulted. Honest! πŸ˜‰

    Keep up the good fight, Allah. :mrgreen:

  • marthamagenta says:

    Hi John! I am so glad you mentioned recipes here, so it would be right on topic to pimp my latest blog here, after all I am sure your readers would love to see it:

    Tofu – The Big Blob – How to – Plus Recipes
    http://www.friendburst.com/blog/32626/tofu-big-blob-recipes/

    My recipe blogs have proven to be very popular and folks are begging for more. πŸ˜€ :groovy:

    You have the right to read whatever you want to and write what ever you want to. This country might suck at the moment but our forefathers did at least give us the freedom of speech. Nuff said.

  • Joko says:

    I only read blogs about agrarian policy as it effects the agriculture/pastoral balance in a post-communist Mongolia.

    I’m still waiting to for someone to write one.
