The Deaf Leading The Blind

After some Modern Warfare 2, which I'll get to later, I decided the do a bit of self-educating. Following what I'd heard on the Penn Jillette Radio show on Free FM (technically the podcast of said show from 3 years ago) and my current penachant for documentaries at the moment, I watched The Root of all Evil by Richard Dawkins, and it's professing of religons of all kinds writing off evolution, refusing to educate children properly, and generally going to bring about the end of the world through ones means or another. All very prophetic, ironicaly enough, but he annoyed me as much as the people he was interviewing; he was actively aggresive to them when they said something that didn't fit with his own views, which the very thing he was acusing them of. Perhaps he was trying to get a reaction out of them to do the same or to make a point, but it just became hypocritical to me. Some even seemed to respect Dawkins' own views while not forcing theirs upon him. I can't say he wasn't always doing the same. Which is a shame from a man trying to use the show partly to promote the idea that those of us without religion are the more peaceful and openminded.

Responsibility

Took me nearly 28 years but I might be an adult.

The apartment now has been upgraded from a set of plastic boxes and a table bending from the weight to nice sleek desk, bookcase and set of drawers. My kitchen sink is empty rather than perpetually stacked full, I have fruit juices in the fridge and apples on my countertop. Large box under my sink to take the recycling which would otherwise be discarded haphazardly by my feet. Floor mopped and vacuumed and (most of) the nicknacks placed on the shelves. TV cabinet organised with XBox360 and PlayStation3 inside it rather than plonked on top.

I give it 2 weeks.

The end of the world and other CG BS

So I sit on the train facing bums with sob stories that I can't understand, coming back for seeing 2012, and I can't say I liked it. I enjoyed it, to a degree, but not liked. All the feelgood and "arnt we great yeehah"-ishness is not for me. Maybe to much happy ending. Which is odd for somebody whom is depressed to say. Perhaps that why I didn't like it.
