I need to cause a ruckus!

You know, I love to read. I really and truly do appreciate the words that people put down on paper, pigskin, and anything else they seem to be able to get their hands on, including the walls, clothing, and sidewalks god (the industrial revolution) blessed us with. However, it works my fucking nerve that 10 years after the turn of the fucking century (that's ten years after y2k failed to wipe out computing as we know it) people still do not know how to use grammar/spell check.

In fact people appear not to know that grammar/spell check exists, and they seem to be just as devastated in the knowledge department when it comes to Word processors in general. If you're 80 years old and as computer-deaf as a newborn I'm not talking to you! Some of the crap I've been reading online lately has been just downright ridiculous. Do people really not know the difference between "There" "Their" and "They're"? Can people simply not fathom that "Were" and "Where" are different for more reasons than just the added letter h? Is it really so hard to understand that "Here" and "Hear are homonyms that should not be confused, or that most of this stuff is taught to children by 3rd grade?

What, were these people out sick when this junk was being taught in school? How did I (the kid who read in class and never paid attention) learn more about grammar and spelling than half the population of the USA (I'm talking about the half the literate population. You don't count if you dropped out of school at 8th grade.)? Can we send these bastards back to school before I ruin my bright and prolific future by committing a mass murder for the sake of humanity?

Do teachers ever do any work, or do we simply stuff children’s heads with gun powder so they can look like they’ve got something spectacular going on between their ears when pressed for information on what they’ve learned? There’s got to be something more to this. Are children getting dumber, and becoming unfortunately retarded adults, or are teachers getting lazier, or is America so far into that hand-basket I’m always hearing is going to hell that we have no future and so it doesn’t matter if we can write things down?

I am a horrible speller, and my grammar isn't the best in the world. I’ll freely admit that I’m probably a failure as an English Major for just this reason, and that Mrs. Davis (My third grade teacher) would be just as appalled at my horrible grammar as she was at my terrible penmanship. However, the wonders of new age computer, the PC, and that wonderful wonderful program Microsoft Word (or indeed Open Office for you insufficiently coined individuals) I have been able to function in the English reading, writing and speaking society with barely a hiccough.


It is unfortunate that some of you still have not learned the wonders I’ve known. It is a simple pleasure that I extend to you. Please, please, please do everyone a favour, and at least spell-check your silly blogs, e-articles, RSS Feeds, and other writings before you post them somewhere or send them to print to be forever immortalized on the bastardized skin of some poor tree who never did anything to anybody! I’m tired of your common errors and your erroneous ineptitudes in the realm of writing, and I’m sure that in a world where even the bloody web browser checks your spelling you can find somewhere to do the same. I type in “Knowlege” and get a little red squiggle underneath it that reminds me I’ve forgotten the d. Indeed if I stare at it for several seconds and cannot figure out just how I’ve erred, I can right-click (sorry Mac users, I’m sure Job’s has some other cool doohickey that does the same) and get a list of words I might have meant! I’m still flummoxed as to why the fuck Knowles is in my goddamn auto-fill, but I’m sure that Beyonce’s proud she’s got her fucking name in the dictionary. She’s an airhead and she spells better than you bastards!

WTF? D.A.

A couple of weeks back I reported an artwork angelrazielxp.deviantart.com/a… as "hate art" because it was an artwork specifically created to offend a fellow deviant BeautifullyChaotic in order to get payback because she reported his gallery. This is the reply I received.

"Your Prohibited Content Violation Report on New sharingan with swastikas was reviewed by a member of the staff and action was taken, marking the report as Invalid.

Additionally, the following comment was provided:

Thank you for attempting to bring this deviation to the attention of the staff.

Unfortunately this deviation does not meet the current definition for "Hate Art".

It is important to remember that actual "Hate Art" expresses clearly racist ideals, such as the genocide or enslavement of a certain race or class of people.

A work which simply expresses a dislike or negative opinion for a subject is not "Hate Art" regardless of how strong that opinion might be expressed, neither are deviations which you simply find offensive because the beliefs or opinions are the opposite of your own.

Please review our FAQ entry on the subject of "Hate Art" available here [link] so that you can be more familiar with the official definition.

Please click here for more information.

How can an artwork specifically created to offend someones religious or racial beliefs not be considered hate art? WTF DA? WTF!

EDIT: Apparently this artwork is also stolen from the Television Show Naruto. Naruto belongs to who created it, Kishimoto Masashi, and the other companies who have part of it, such as Viz, and Shonen Jump. So not only is this person promoting racist ideals, but he's also committing art theft. Again!

...Absolute Idiots.

Why is it that every single time I make a genuine observation I am told that I'm being too judgmental and I'm always judgmental? If I am genuinely trying to help you, why throw it in my face? And what the hell is up with assholes penalizing me because they're too lazy to do their fucking job. Act like you have a fucking brain. Act like you know what's going on around you, and you know what to do about it. If I tell you that I don't have something I need to do my job, I expect you to get off your lazy fucking ass and get me whatever I need in order to be productive. If not, then don't give me a "stern talking to" about the fact that you didn't get the results you wanted. And don't act like an idiot. If I say to you in advance that I will not be here and I'm not here don't wonder where the fuck I am. Stop being an airhead.
