Now for your reading enjoyment, I present to you: THINGS THAT WORRY ME ABOUT MANKIND.
- REALITY TV. Here's the thing, I love reality tv. I watch pretty much every stupid show on MTV and TLC and I don't know if I even count those as reality. But let me just throw this out there: Honey Boo Boo Child. I have redneckognized and what really truly worries me, is that I seriously find the show entertaining most of the time. I will have moments of disgust but I can never make myself change the channel. A couple weeks ago I probably watched 3 days worth of Jersey Shore. I only find it funny like the first time I watch it, but I watch it anyways.
- THE PRICE OF EDUCATION. I would like to note that not even a year and a half into my college career, my parents and I are in more debt than I even want to admit. I did choose an out-of-state school, but had I went to the top public University in my home state, I'd be paying more. I'm lucky my parents will help me with loans, but honestly, It'll be like a billion years before I pay off these loans. So the geniuses who could probably cure cancer or save the American economy will never get a chance because no one can afford college.
- HUMAN RIGHTS. I choose these words delicately. I am a confirmed Catholic, but I am not without my own thoughts on matters. Why, in these horrible economic times, are we STILL discussing gay rights? or women's rights? This is 2012. Gay rights and women's rights should not even be an issue. None of us are God. If you are soooooo set on your religion, let God be the judge. If you aren't gay, cool! Let them be. If you don't have a uterus, get off the subject of birth control. And while I'm at it, I think it's ridiculous that women STILL make less money than men. Why is that even still a possibility? On that note, if one more person bothers me about who I'm voting for, I might set them on fire with my glare.
- THE LACK OF GLITTER. I honestly think this world would be so much more awesome if more people embraced glitter. I don't need like Edward Cullen sparkly skin or anything, but I definitely need people to stop telling me they don't like glitter. That's not even a real thing, not liking glitter. Stop being ridiculous.
- CHILDREN AND TECHNOLOGY. My little brother is obsessed with my Kindle Fire and my mom's iPad. He beat me at Madden last weekend. I know kids under the age of 10 who have cell phones. I got one TO SHARE with my brothers when I was 13. That was when I learned I'm not the sharing kind. Anyways, the fact that like 7 and 8 year olds are getting 500 dollar iPads for their birthdays instead of crazy cool GameBoy colors is perplexing to me. My roommate and I spent the hour before work today playing one of those games that you plug into the TV and push buttons. It was seriously the most fun thing I've played since Robot Unicorn Attack. Seriously Kids, get with it.
That was seriously the most refreshing rant I've had in forever. Feel free to add to my list in the comments or tweet them at me loves :)
