Respect is just a word

Someone once said: "Get to know your parents before its too late." That is such a sentimental thought. Well, if they are anything like me, I don't want to know. The thing is you will never know anyone completely, everyone is hiding something. Your wife, your parents, your pastor, no one is an open book, everyone is lying to your face, and you are doing it right back. Believe me you don't want to know how your grandma was a prostitute during the war and that is how she was able to afford her way to the states, or how your Dad thinks his life may have been better if you had never been born, or that your Mom used to fuck guys for drugs when she was barely out of her teens. Just leave them alone, or stay away from the real stuff, they probably wont tell you the truth anyways.

I was listening to that song by I guess Baz Luhrman, you know the one where he dispences all his advice from his own meandering existence. As you may already know, it was Mary Shmich, a Chicago Tribune writer who first dispenced this advice. Anyways, that song does make you stop and think....what else can i say to the background of music that will sound profound. Does any of this matter, i mean in the end no one accomplishes everything they want to, some may argue anything at all. Telling someone that they can be a famous millionaire is cruel. Everyone should stick to small goals that they think they can accomplish, like paying this months rent.

I'm a thirty year old boy.

I am Jack's sense of nostalgia....The best birthday card I have ever received and consequentially the only one worth saving was a picture of the face of a sad baby with the caption, "But I don't want to grow up." One of the most realistic dreams I have is to retire and read old magazines and comics while I have all the time that I have left. Is it wierd that all I want to do is what I did when I was a kid? i.e eat waffles and read Archie comics. I'm not talking about any inner-child bullshit, although, I am not sure what that it is (I'll google it, just in case I am). Aw, fuck me, I wish I had no worries other than watching bugs bunny cartoons.

Welcome.....or whatever

i recently just watched the movie Fight Club again, and must say i really appreciate the idea of destroying everything that depresses us. I also find it ironic that this rebellious message against materialism, modern society, and pop culture is sold back to us in a DVD special edition package. Even though, we can mock and ridicule what we commonly regard as mainstream and popular, still someone is making money off your regard for being anti-establishment. The best part of it is that we can get the best of both worlds by shopping at places like Hot Topic or any skater shop in your nearby Mall. Anyways, I long for the day when we rise up and attack all that is wrong and is corrupting us.
