Greetings fellow thinkers, planners, seekers of truth and everything in between.
Lately I have been scrapping about my usual confusion of everyday existence with a bit of an overwhelmingly uncomfortable feeling. I will in good faith try my very best to summarize these pressing concerns into a tightly knit plea for all who are willing to realize that I might be onto something. Before I start expressing my deep concerns, I would like to mention that I am by no means the perfect picture of innocence, strangely that my very well be the reason why I am typing this post.

Understanding the fundamental principles of the human ego and its significance to function in some sort of social hierarchy, I cannot for the life of me understand why a small amount of people need to be on some sort of power trip to feel content about themselves.
@%$* you, you big business tyrants and your puppet politicians!!!!!!!

Naturally i would suppose a sense of self respect and appreciation would manifest from doing something productive that will benefit others more than it would yourself. Yet everywhere I go (pardon me if I may seem self delusional) I see greed. From the constant escalating prices of mass produced food ,ironically created and processed by under paid laborers (also being greedy due too lack of income), too the absolutely ridiculous prices added to products of obscure functionality ( figure that one out for yourself)
@%$* you, you Monopolized Industrial dictator scum bags feeding off the good will of the everyday person.

This falsified and blatantly unfair world we find ourselves in makes me cringe with contempt on a daily basis.
Seeing people from all walks of life throwing away their sense of individuality for the conformity of a pretentious existence to survive is sickening. What ever happened to self discovery and respect for difference. Plastic people with plastic personalities trying to fit into a dysfunctional system to win their bread. Little girls dressing like female escorts, little boys fighting like Ufc super stars.
@%$* you capitalist media and marketing scumbags, your portrayal of existence is beyond the definition of a crime against humanity.

Lastly, and this is directed to all the ignorant hypocrites who always have something tho say about someone else without looking in the mirror. Better beware, there is a new breed of people rising out of the ashes, understanding and compassionate on a new scale. They do not judge by mere appearance or status, but by character and common interests in something greater than themselves. Tread carefully around these folk, they smell a fake from a mile away and sifting out hidden agendas comes naturally for them. Many of them are on this very website and I am sure they will agree that this sense of self awareness is spreading like wildfire amongst the naturally curious. So I say @%$* being normal and sacrificing personal identity and @%$* those selfish narrow minded folk who persecute anything that jeopardizes their comfort zone.

Thank you for putting up with my whining and venting, I feel better now

It`s their world they made it but they can`t force you to live in it, just stop buying their junk, stop playing in their sandbox.
I don`t own a cell phone i`ve never owned one, it`s not a necessity it just feeds the beast
I haven`t bought a new car in over 20 years, it`s not a necessity it just feeds the beast

I don`t miss not playing in their sandbox and not living in their world

I have a cell, but no contract and no land line. I also drive a 20+ year old vehicle, I would not own a newer one if they gave it to me free and clear. Also, as of 1 January 2013, I no longer pay income taxes and will not ever again.

Get rid of the telly, do that and you on your way to a free mind. Still got your telly? then your still jailed.

OP, I couldn't have said it better myself.

S&F. A rant I enjoyed reading and agree with.

Nothing to say, except I agree. S&F

I am very glad i found this website, It is amazing still how much i agree with most here and the few I don't agree with their perspective I still respect. It is sad that I used to just sulk up all those disgusting trends and all for nothing. I walk the streets now and I just hate what the world has become, how do people enjoy those lives I ask myself, walking around so blind in the world while the walls close in. I always thought it was my fault for being such an outcast, instead of just talking actually thinking, questioning everything always seeing the "what ifs" in life. I think everyone here sees the greed my friend, at least i know there are other who avoid it as well.

I couldn't agree with you more, every single word. Star and Flag

I stopped watching TV a couple of years ago and never looked back, it's the best thing I ever did!
