I sort of missed my point

So I’ve missed my point, which based on my past writing in other blogs is something I do rather a lot. Jumbled ideas.

So I had several things floating in my head yesterday. One I don’t like people, Two I was tired of hearing about everyone complain about how they weren’t keeping their resolutions, three I need to stop swearing in some settings, four we are indeed heading to hell in a hand basket which was more related to not liking people and five that when does being snarky just become being a disagreeable person.

I think I need to clarify the snarky to disagreeable thing. I guess when you are jobless and snarky no matter what age you are it’s not a good thing. So teens without the job or more to the point the real means to support yourself out of your parent’s home, it is disagreeable and at times rude. So Dane Cook can be snarky you pay him to be, you being snarky to your math teacher is a bad idea.

If you are an unemployed adult with the ability to work and don’t because you don’t want to work you loose the right to be snarky.

With that out of the way, the issue of people. I like people, well some people. As most of you I don’t know a significant amount of the population and can’t say if they are worthy of distain or not. If they are driving in front of me 20 miles an hour slower than the posted limit on dry roads then I don’t like you very much and I am most likely giving you the finger under the sight line of other motorists and muttering swear words under my breath. See they do have place in society. Then I remember that I should be calmer and I breathe and just pray for you to turn to go in a different direction than I am going.

However I am not liking people a lot recently. I know this is because of my job. I get to deal with people who should not be doing the things they are doing. Mostly they know better but they just don’t care. You know if you don’t want kids, don’t fuck. If you want to fuck and don’t want kids use birth control. If you get knocked up and don’t want the kids there are solutions to that. I’m not going to advocate any one over another. My choice is mine and yours is yours. You are free to do which ever you want. Then you can sleep until noon and as long as you can pay your rent or find someone willing to let you lay in their bed and not pay bills then so be it.

The last paragraph leads nicely to my next point when is snarky just disagreeable. I will concede that maybe some of the aforementioned people have some redeeming qualities and don’t need to be shoot on sight but mainly I’m not liking them. But does my saying they are lazy, bottom feeding scum make me a disagreeable person or can my flip comments be seen as snarky rants because I do try to help them even if my heart isn’t in it for them. I’m not a bleeding heart liberal but I’m not a board up my butt conservative either. Mostly these slack ass people do know better but only just. We would have called them JEEP’s in the military Just Educated Enough to Pass. That doesn’t make for very good citizens. It doesn’t make for a very good work force, it doesn’t make for a very good society and the list goes on and on. That’s why I’m not conservative you can’t expect to have a strong society if you don’t invest in the society and by that I mean the people. However, there comes a point where you do know right from wrong and need to be held accountable for your actions. Not everyone is as mentally ill as the APA or counseling association would like to think they are so the can send billable hours to insurance companies or Medicaid. Anyway there is a middle path in there.

That is only part of dislike of people, our own lack of care and greed. Greed is why we driving our selves to the brink of destruction. You don’t need to have 2000 percent profit on everything you sell. Some things sure why not if you can get it, fine but come on people not everything we do is worth 900.00 an hour.

Then the resolutions don’t make them if you don’t intend to keep them and if you don’t keep them I don’t want to hear about it. And I’m not trying to stop cussing as part of a resolution I’m just not trying to swear in certain settings. Which has made me question if I’m snarky or am I a disagreeable person? I think I’m snarky but the use of swears I think at times just makes me seem disagreeable and the use of absolute terms in things too because not all of any person is bad and not all of any person is redeeming.

I’m just me

Have a great day and play nice in the neighborhood,
