hello all,
Yes, I agree let the past lie in peace and heal itself!!! The more we keep giving it energy and focus, the more likely we can never heal from it.

Fliers are such a waste of trees, don't they know that yet???

They don't care. Most rabid environmentalists are just ****** that want something to bitch about all the time.

George Carlin said it best (as he has so many times on so many topics):

"think about how stupid the average person is and then realize (by definition of "average") that half of them are stupider than that."

Nuff said.

I thought the movie "Idiocracy" was really funny until I realized it was a documentary on the future. If you haven't seen it, you must. It will answer all of your questions about the future. Mike Judge at his best. Heck the first five minutes explains where all the Obama voters came from!!!!

OMG that movie sucked balllzzzzzz. But it was a good prediction of the future if things keep going the way they are. That or I find Fahrenheit 451 a very true possibility.

I agree... that movie was such a waste of time... I felt like I lost 50 iq points after watching it.

Idiocracy could have been amazing... the premise was perfect. Somebody needs to remake it, but not do a ****-poor job of it.
