[Un]Common Stupidity

I would first like to thank everyone for reading my recent post about my father. It meant a lot to me that so many would be moved by my thoughts and words about someone who meant so much in my life. Now though, my thoughts are clearer, my sadness has receded somewhat, and I am ready to come back into the world. Lets see what I missed... (All Rights held by The New York Times) Oh for f^@&s sake... Abortion has been a hot bed topic in America for a vast number of years. Ever since crusty old politicians realized that they could extend their grimy fingers into the lives of others, some have tried to use this power to push their own religious and personal beliefs. And while some people (ed note: Smart people) would say that a politicians place is to enforce and enact the will of the people they represent, others will chime in and say this is how it's always been done. And so, I welcome back my guest from my first post ever, Abraham Lincoln , to offer us a sage quote ...

So this topic may be considered insensitive, but hear me out until the end before lighting the tiki torches. (ed note: I'm allergic to fire) Aren't tiki torches racist now? Is this worse?  A couple weeks ago, a would be missionary named John Chau set out on a pilgrimage to the North Sentinel Island in the Bay of Bengal , in the Indian Ocean . He was attempting to contact the tribe to spread Christianity, and, ostensibly, convert them to followers and members of modern society. Upon arriving, he was shot at with several warning arrows and forced to leave, however, he returned later on in the week, and was no longer warned, being killed with multiple arrows on the spot. Now, I feel I don't have to tell anyone of the dire ramifications of trying to march up to people currently shooting arrows at you, but nonetheless, he did, and is no longer living due to this action. While it may sound cold, the further problems with this story will reveal why exactly I, as well as ...

.... And in summation, that's how you fix all of our political and humanitarian issues. Thank you for reading for the past 2 months. This series has been a big one. Twelve blog posts. Just amazing what steady viewership and dedication will brin- .... (ed note: What do you mean they haven't been posting? What do you mean they haven't even been SAVING?! YOU MEAN I HAVEN'T BEEN ACTIVE HERE FOR 2 MONTHS?!?! MOTHE@$@^&@^@*()$)*(!^(97278^&!*(@!!!!) Well... this is awkward. It seems that my creative juices needed a pick me up. Yeah. That's what I'll go with. Lets get onto the post. It's about one of my favorite topics: sadness and misery in the world! Yaaaay! ... I need a drink.... 52 Shirley Temples later. So for those who have been living under a rock, or at least have the better sense to not listen to ANY news nowadays, a several thousand people strong caravan of refugees and immigrants has slowly been making its way across Central American ...

      "Darkness. Apathy. Rage. Penance. This is my world. All those whom tread my path will know my suffering. I shall inflict upon evil what evil has inflicted upon me. No more Mr. Niceguy. I will become a paragon of the blade of justice. I shall break upon my foes the same pains that weigh me down. Never again shall those who I fight for fear the night. For I am the night. I am John-Paul Valley, and I am Batman. I shall strike fear upon the wicked. And they will learn to fear my unholy visage... " OH GOD! BURN IT! BURN IT!!! The 90's were... an interesting time. Fashion went out the window. Slang was denser and wackier than ever. Television and music was either total nonsense, or completely serious and adult, with little in between. And comics.... oh sweet comics. This was a dark time indeed. What you see above, is the 90's re-imagining of Batman . Yes, I will apologize on behalf of DC . While this unholy abomination was bad, it was BY FAR not the worst i...

OH EM GEE! Millennials are like, sooooo entitled! They want everything handed to them on a platter! They never wanna work, they are soooooo lazy! It's really no wonder they aren't getting anywhere in the world. I mean, please, you expect to work 50 hours a week and still be able to eat after paying bills? Whatever. So much entitlement you'd swear Vince McMahon owned shares in it. I just can't believe these idiots! I'm so glad I'm not a millennial! Not me! Just a good ol' fashioned 90's kid. Nothing wrong with us whatsoever! (ed note: God it hurt to talk like that. So yeah. Millennials. Your welcome.) Damn young people. Well, I'm back from having that nervous breakdown up there, lets get into some serious discussion now shall we? There have been a bit of hatred and intolerance lately regarding a certain group of people. Am I talking about LGBTQ people? No. No I am not. African-Americans? No. Hispanics? No. Not them. Native Americans? Demo...

Gather round children. Time for a story!        O nce upon a time, there was a great land, a land so bountiful and pristine, that all who came to it wished to never leave. It provided it's people with all of their needs, no matter the cost. However, this land required you work it to meet those needs. And work it the people did! Far and wide, farmers, builders, woodsmen and all sorts of fine folk flocked forward for fresh and fruitful bounties that would be obtained through hard work, and the sweat off one's brow. But all was not as peaceful as it seemed.       T he dark ones came. They swept over the land and plied their foul magics unto the populace. They brought metal and stone buildings to bear; steam-pipes billowed foul soot into the sky, darkening even the brightest of days. Nature was pushed back in the name of industry; the land itself was molded and warped to suit the needs of the dark ones. Where before a person worked to better their own l...

Oh boy. This is a doozy. For those that have been out of the loop and/or don't care, James Gunn, the writer, Producer, Director, Custodian for Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy series has been unceremoniously fired by Disney , and had all ties severed. Well what the hell? Why would they do that? It's not like he wrote tweets about pedophilia and rape... oh he did that? Well. That's all folks. We're done here..... No, not really. We're just getting started! So, James Gunn, who as previously mentioned has garnered massive success with his GOTG series has been under fire due to several (ed note: SEVERAL.) Tweets he made over a number of months around 2007-2008 or so. The content of these tweets, which, for lack of a better term, are disgusting, detail various jokes and comedic scenario's where minors and unwilling participants are involved. Now, obviously these are just jokes, but the issue stands. Not pictured: smut and tastefulness. Due to the fact ...

Babies. Those cute little roly pollies of meat and drool; everyone loves them! People love them, dogs love them, bears love them... but no one loves them more than HEARTLESS CORPORATION NUMBER 87 ! Nope, not one person, animal or thing can possibly love those little future money spending humans more! This is why they are so invested in their health and well-being! Surely no money- er, good can come from letting these poor helpless creatures suffer right? This is why these heroic corporations must band together and stop one of the most dangerous threats to baby-kind the world has ever seen. They must stop the horror... known as breast feeding.... yeah its gonna be that blog post today. (ed note: Boobies.) This spring in Geneva, Switzerland, the WHO (World Health Organization) met with over a hundred delegates from various nations around the world. Their goal was to sign a worldwide resolution about the importance of promoting breast feeding as the healthiest way of feeding a grow...

By now we have no doubt all had a fun and explosion filled 4th of July ! Hot dogs were grilled, beer was drunk, and patriotism was celebrated unabashedly around the country! At least until the next day when we get back to calling each other un-American. But truthfully, it was a celebration to be had! And what better way for this blog to celebrate all things American than cheer on one of the most dignified and long standing traditions this great nation has to offer... CAPITALISM! Specifically, capitalism in the form of DISNEY    TAKING OVER THE FRICKIN WORLD! (ed note: Uncommon Stupidity is henceforth a subsidiary of Walt Disney Inc. ™ ) So, what do I mean by taking over the world? Well, not literally obviously. Yet. But the entertainment world, well that's a different story. It all begins in the grand ol' year of 1989 . It was in this year that an event popularly called The Disney Renaissance began. You see, before this time, Disney had had a record number of mediocre ...
