    Well the idea Im trying to get at in my little poem here is that "can we not just let the little things go? Everyones gonna be dead in 30 years or less anyway"

    EDIT: and like all wise people, lets not worry about THAT either: just get down to doing whatever we want. sseize the moment and all the gobbledegook.

    Let's not forget about the obsessive taxation; the dwindling thoughts that maybe if you worked all your life MAYBE you'll own a house; governments and jobs that don't care about your happiness or wellbeing or intellectual development; people who don't care for each other; people who are arguing whether or not America & Great Britain should remain killing women & children in Iraq from the comforts of their homes/air conditioned offices and let's not forget, George Bush is still in office...

    and genghis Khan nearly wiped out europe. Didn't stop things progressing from there.

    The beauty of a dawn, the look in a lovers eyes, Friendship. Simply stopping to look around you at what is happening NOW at what you can see and just admiring it.

    I don't care if you smoke cannavis, thugh it can cause depression

    is that not a racist thing to say?! anyway, most people (all colours) are racist anyway and racism is a form of prejudice and prejudice is necesary (unless you're naive in which case it's strictly at odds with your naiveness). how else would you know if something's probably good or bad for you? how do insurance companies make money? with prejudice : why should an 18 year old lad in a souped up civic pay more than some lil oul nun? Why does a barman say "shyyite..." when a gang of trvellers sit down for a days drinking? why do airport police run indepth checks on middle eastern gentlemen? Why do the words "nigerian" and "scam" appear in the same sentence so often? why do the irish drink so much (and yes, we do)?

    I'll tell you why: cos it's likely.

    have u no idea whats going on in iraq? 3000 dead people is like a bedtime story compared to the goings on over there.

    and what has the word "terrorist" got to do with it? if you were about to be blown up would you care that the person who came up with the idea was wearing a suit or not or that your killer has a salary and pension?

    edit: ps. fair play to ye for being a stoner and up writing a rant like that at 805 in the morning!

    Thats the problem with stoners - they think too much


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,941 ✭✭✭pclancy


    OP: Meh, you're only going to be here for another 50 odd years hopefully so why not just enjoy as much of it as possible?

    Yeah the world is ****ed but my plan is to end up on some nice little isolated island in the pacific. Play music, drink, smoke and die laughing. Not much you can do to change the madness of the world.

    I think people who go on about the world being screwed and about how it's all going to be gone in fifty years are just trying to make excuses as to why they shouldn't work.

    Go and have a shower and shave and go out and get a job you filthy hippies.

    I don't honestly think that the Irish give a **** about any of this, They are all too busy working their way up that Class Ladder. They have too much on their plates already trying to keep up with the Jones's, they just have to get the Mercedes, no matter how much it or petrol costs. Yes, the people of UrbanSprawLand as it should be re-named (or maybe New Essex would be another name), are too busy getting rid of their country accents and working on the plastic English accents just in time for their summer holdays, so they can impress everyone, and act cultured. ye mate .. we couldnt care less !! :D

    Jesus lad what kind of weed are you smoking? Don't believe the media hype, the world is a buetiful place, your next door neighbours more than likely not a serial killer/peadophile or terrorist. We're far better off now than we've ever been throughout the history of mankind.

    Erm, I agree to a certain extent, the world is what you make it, if you don't agree with the society that was created (sometimes without our consent) don't participate in it, like the way I ain't. :D

    How exactly did you come up with this assumption. Every race is equally as racist, all you have to do is listen to some of the crap rap artists come out with. If you heard it coming from a white rock band they'd be kicked out of the country. Please check out these speeches, I think they just about say it all.

    Stop smoking the whakey-tabaccy and get your hair cut, you hippie!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 175 ✭✭exCrumlinBoyo


    People give the lad a break. He mentioned smoking pot, this is irrelevant to what he is saying. People are saying look at the good stuff in the world but knock him for looking at the bad stuff….

    He is correct to an extent. The world is full of pain and misery as well as happiness, beauty and good people.

    OP, lighten up a little, I agree with a lot of what your saying but if you spend to much time thinking about the bad c rap you will miss out on the good stuff.

    Roll up a nice big Joint and head out to the woods/lake/ go fishing where you are away from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, sit down, chill out and take in your surroundings. The bad stuff will overtake the good stuff if you allow it too, so don’t allow it to, it simple as that.

    a few of them are a lot aren't
    America is a fear driven country backed by a WMD arsenal large enough to destroy this planet many times over;
    i think most US people aren't fear driven, media hype stuff more than they should, it's a super power they have wmd, they're not the only ones
    the consumption of oil is destroying our environment regardless;
    you can't destroy the environment, there's still lots of oil, it's always been a finite resource like everything else
    Hurricanes are only going to get worse this year;
    hurricane have been around for a while, with large ones in the past, Hurricane Katrina happened in 2005, 2006 didn't have similar. death toll was a lot less than the tsunami which was nothing to do with global warming(Hurricane Katrina probably wasn't global warming either). natural disasters happen, new orleans wasn't prepared for what nature is capable of
    in less than 5 years there will be a terrorist attack that will make 9/11 look like a bedtime story
    hopefully not the case, security increased sinced 911, there are people out there who want to terrorise so anythings possible, just have to make sure organisations can't operate freely
    ; Labour force getting screwed
    nothing new there, better standard of living for most people these days
    ; Students killing everyone and then killing themselves;
    reflection of level of gun ownership/legislation. fortunately doesn't happen too often and not a problem in ireland yet
    Jihads all over the shop; Civil war;
    nothing much new there, ireland more united these days
    Religion unites people; Religion divides people;
    whats the point of life, what purpose does believing in something and believing that what you believe is right and others believe is wrong
    Protectionism;
    if theres somethging to protect, it exists i guess
    The new dawn of the Chinese Military; Japan in R&D of Mobile suits (maybe, but really I'm just kidding);
    russia falls, china rises, balance. Even Sony screws up
    Supercomputers tracking our every move;
    i doubt anyone cares that much where i move, turn off your mobile
    Anubis asteroid set to kill us all in 30 years;
    Apophis i think, odds are small that it will hit
    The value of human life drops to pre-society levels;
    a problem in the third world, hopefully slowly improving
    the United Nations begins to lose its meaning;
    still has power, hasn't been around that long
    Bin Laden is still missing;
    there'll always be a bin laden
    Murder and Rape and crime are steadily on the rise to the point where society is learning to become complacent;
    always been a problem, relates to social problems, wealth/poverty divide
    Milk begins to cost more than gasoline;
    depends here you buy the milk, don't really see any alarming trend there
    Labour force getting screwed over again;
    again, whats new since you said it above
    Corporations that don't perceive the individual;
    ? i demand to be perceived, "nothing more difficult than perception" star trek
    Medical Care continues to be governed by Capitalism;
    better more advanced medical care than 25 years ago
    the Ozone layer is failing dramatically;
    aren't cfc banned, stay out of the sun
    and inflation will always return to **** you up the ass.
    i remember when a chomp bar was 10 pence
