2 important things from today :P

first thing first: the ugliness of people demanding and imposing on other people.

this is disgusting. why would you do that? what happened to the golden rule? i mention this today because of the atrocity i witnessed as i wandered the ECS building. as i was walking to the bathroom, i happened to pass an elevator. it was about to close and go about its business changing floors and such, when a huge black "lady" yells out:

"HOLD THE ELEVATUH."

as she waddled towards it. she was in NO hurry, she simply DIDN'T want to wait again. so she made everybody ELSE wait for her royal slowness to make it to the elevator doors. amazing(ly appalling.).

maybe this fits under the category of "misery distribution" but idk, it seems too... selfish. i mean, you see people do things all the time like holding the door for people but if the people inside the elevator wanted to hold the door, they would have. she could have at least hurried, but it didn't look like she ever had to do that her entire life. she probably just asked for help as a "black person," and that really angers me.



POINT TWO----------------------------

ANECDOTE: (this is all spurred on by a girl (kailey) walking by (who i am friends (?) with) that completely ignored me, because i left her dinner table last mealtime. what i explained to clinton was, that even though i left, she was at fault. there were only two seats to sit down at originally (there were other people), and kailey and her friend took them. then, when a table was added so further seats could be arranged, i was suddenly sitting at the opposite end from her, with people i didn't even know. later, i spotted my roommates, and went to sit with them. )

as we were sitting at dinner today, (just clinton and i, nobody else was there yet, and basel actually never did show up) we talked about the state of people's stupidity. clinton argued that everybody was stupid in their own area of inexpertise, and i agreed. i added my own notion that it seemed that a very large number of people are stupid in all the same way. (and that really sucks, said the underlying message of the conversation.)

i slightly changed the discussion topic to all girls being stupid. (which is preposterous, i hate it when that phrase is applied to boys, so i qualified it with you (Hailey N. Nash) being the only smart one :D) i said that was ironic, and clinton didn't understand straight away; i clarified. after that, the climax: (remember, it's just him and i at the table, so he's talking to me.)

Clinton: "You know what i think sucks about your social life?"

me: "Mine? What about it?"

Clinton: "It sounds like you're still in high school."







damn straight clinton, damn straight.

this mario character is cooler than i thought.

  1. This ties back to the ocnversation we had before about entitlement. I don't think that in small situations like this, that it is because she had that "black person mentality", it's more that she was just selfish to a fault. Idk...it seems like entitlement only applies to larger things, however I can see the other side as well. Dude people have GOT to get more creative when they name their kids! We're all starting to sound the same! xD Anyway, I think that even with the (suckup) qualification, your statement is overly general and just as "preposterous" as the phrase : "All boys are stupid." It's hypocritical in a way.
