What the hell is WRONG!!!

[MR T3D]

well, in Canada at least we only have that minor issue of Olympics.
prety nice.

 

[Katherine Kerensky]

Well, this is the Feth-up world that we live in.
We few sane (HA!) cannot stop the mindless crowds from being stupid.
It seems to be their fate.
How do I cope? Go on the Escapist, talk to some good people...
or watch anime. or music. blah blah blah and so forth.

 

[countkillalot]

Tell ya what im gonna do.
I'm getting an 18m Clipper and sail the world selling exotic merch to small island nations.

No worries.. just me, my boat and a whole lot of ocean...

 

[Mr. GameBrain]

Ditch your sanity!

It only makes the pain of life worse...

In all do seriousness though, man is imperfect, embrace the imperfection, and forge your own way through life, and you'll do fine!

Stressing about things just leads to serveral forms of illness.
Less stress = more happiness = longer life.

Whenever I get to feeling down about the rest of the world I always remember the quote from Fight Club:

Tyler: It could be worse. A woman could cut off your penis while you're sleeping and toss it out the window of a moving car.
Narrator: There's always that.

So cheer up! It could always be worse. Eventually you'll realize how absurd everything is and always will be and just shrug and laugh it off.

..take a smoke, go to the gym and kick some ass.

or I give you this:

You're welcome.

People are idiots.

Put in your ipod, turn on some music, and forget about it all.

What the hell is WRONG!!! How long has your avatar moved?

 

[maddawg IAJI]

I don't really care what other people do. Let them dig themselves into a financal ditch and let them talk about what they think is going to happen. It dosen't bother me.

For at least a week now.

 

[aseelt]

Escapistopia?

I don't think there are enough women on the forums...

 

[TheSentinel]

Move to New Zealand.

At least, that is my plan...

 

[Premonition]

I believe that the Burka business is not exactly wrong, as I do believe it is required by law that everyone is recognizable by face whilst out on the streets.

 

[Wadders]

I know this sounds harsh, but I simply dont care. None of this has enough of an effect on me, my friends or family for me to give a fuck.

I have enough on my plate in my own life to worry about, I dont waste time worrying about the stuff other people do. It sounds selfish, but that's how I cope

Also, I'm pretty sure minarets on Mosques are not actually a religious symbol, hence banning them is not akin to banning church crosses (could be worng though :/ )

 

[likalaruku]

France is thinking of banning the Burka in some places, even for people who WANT to wear them

The Fashion Police...they're REAL!

None of the other stuff bothers me.

 

[TheLastCylon]

You do realize stuff like this has been happening, well, since the dawn of humanity?

Shit happens all the time, you just got to learn to chin up and face the problems.

EDIT:

You're asking the completely wrong guy.

I have no compassion for my fellow man.
None.
At all

Wow, you're so deep and different. Such a badass.

Took the words right out of my mouth. If you were being sarcastic, that is.

-Warning, very depressing thread -

I can usually deal with this stuff, but today i have finally snapped. This is getting ridiculous!!! Has the world gone mad? Have we lost all shreds of common sense! What on Earth can we do to fix all of this! Is no one else banging their heads against the wall!!!

- France is thinking of banning the Burka in some places, even for people who WANT to wear them
- Certain European countries have banned the little towers on mosques, something akin to banning a cross on the tops of churches if I am not mistaken
- Australia is banning things left right and center, setting their standards like in 198-fucking-4
- In China, the ability to make cheap little plastic toys are more important than workers rights
- Religious nuts in the US are getting ridiculous amounts of attention and air time
- People are scientifically arguing that the world will end in 2012
- China doesn't give two shits what the world thinks of them anymore
- Canada is going frigging insane with its Olympic regulations
- The economy is in the crapper, yet thousands and thousands of people are spending way beyond their means
- The media is filled with more private interests than ever before
- And the cherry on top, this generation is going to live shorter lives than the last one, a trend not seen since the f*cking DARK AGES!!!
I...i just... this is all so..... AAAAAAAAAAARRRGGGGGG!!!!! *thump*

What can we do? What do you do? How do you cope? What is some light news?

well, if it makes you feel any better,here, the socialist party blamed their presidential loss to the liberal party on magic done using "purple flames" and pentagrams around the parliament.

so...it might be true, the world might be ending in 2012 and all this stupidity might be a sign of it.
