Beware of filth

As a general rule we have become cleaner as a people. I wonder if anyone has graphed the curve of general cleanliness going back to the days where we lived outside and bathing basically didn’t happen, through when we slept on a bed of hay often with little critters feeding on us at night and […]

Superstition is going to come back with a vengeance

Everything comes from somewhere. All science has been proven incorrect, or incomplete over the course of time, but the basic truths people have understood or believed in have persevered throughout the ages. Whether it be in the form of religion, superstition, cultural convention, or passed down from generation to generation in the form of stories and rituals, […]

Everything is stupid in retrospect

Looking back on a person’s decisions, life choices, romantic partners, etc. often leads to the conclusion most of the things we do are pretty stupid and short sighted. The only infallible exception to this rule applies to whatever we’re currently doing in the moment. We have loads of reasons and justifications as to why we […]

Setting the Record straight.

It’s a sad state of affairs when I am forced to set aside my general moronic ravings and be the voice of reason, but there are times that call for nothing less but the most extraordinary of efforts. The purpose of this post is to set the record straight about the behavior of pedophiles, and […]

I’m worried.

That I may have alienated the 6 people who read this by not posting for 2 weeks. I’m going to file this under useful stuff, even though it’s not useful. I figure I have to fill that category with something, and it’s unlikely to get filled on its own, what with all the opportunities to […]
