misfit hall of shame
« Previous EntriesRewriting History?
Thursday, January 7th, 2010I get irritated pretty easily, no doubt about that. But nothing drives me more insane than the PC’ing of novels written in a time where sensibilities were far different than today’s. It used to drive me insane when I was working on my BA sitting in class listening to women bitch and moan about the [...]
WTF?
Monday, December 8th, 2008Okay…so I’m a bit cranky to begin with today. I know why, but I’m not sharing. At any rate, I came across this article earlier and I couldn’t believe it.
Well, I could believe it, but it just drives me absolutely insane, the utter stupidity of the American culture and their stupid-ass pharmaceuticals. We’re over medicated [...]
Oh The Asininity…
Friday, September 26th, 2008I’m interrupting my Friday evening of reading (for school, not pleasure, so Ha! to all of those who, knowing me so well, figured on catching me doing anything except for what I’m supposed to be doing… ) to simply say that this not only infuriates me to the point of seeing nothing but red, [...]
Is There No Shame?
Wednesday, August 13th, 2008It seems everyone has a story about seeing The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Mine isn’t as nearly as exciting as most; the first time I saw it was on video – a bootleg copy with Japanese subtitles long before it was released for home viewing. The first time I saw it live was at the [...]
The Sheer Idiocy of it All
Thursday, May 22nd, 2008I’m not sure if I’m just being overly cranky this week or if there has simply been a rash of news articles that highlight the asinine.
Today’s lunacy hails from Boston in the form of a pediatric specialist, Dr. Norman Spack who has started a clinic at Children’s Hospital Boston for transgendered children.
When I first glimpse [...]
Where Are The Parents? Update
Monday, May 19th, 2008So, yesterday I mentioned that a child’s parents in New Jersey were suing over the use of metal bats in children’s baseball as a result of the injuries their son sustained.
DH and I had a brief conversation in the comments section of yesterday’s post where he informed me that the use of metal bats in [...]
Where Are The Parents?
Sunday, May 18th, 2008You know – I always wonder why children don’t have any common sense and are pretty much lacking all around in the personal responsibility department.
And in response, today’s reply is…
“Oh, wait. These are the parents!”
It seems that parents in New Jersey are holding a metal baseball bat responsible for their son’s brain damage as [...]
And the MHoS Award Goes To…
Thursday, January 24th, 2008I’m a voracious reader – suffice it to say, I’m absolutely against book-banning of any sort. I’m also not for the whole PC b.s. that’s prevalent in our society as a general whole – and I don’t mean just the American society, either. It seems the whole world has fallen prey to greasing [...]
We Reap What We Sow
Saturday, December 29th, 2007Anxiety attacks aside, very few things in this world truly scare me. It seems the older I get, however, the one thing that really scares me is what parents in our society (the Americans, that is – despite having grown up in Europe, I am not knowledgeable enough about other countries), are teaching our children.
I [...]
Yet Another Instance of Healthcare Ridiculousness
Friday, December 21st, 2007I’ve posted before that I have serious issues with the state of Healthcare in the United States.
Click here to see yet another example of why Health Insurance companies shouldn’t be run by idiots in suits.
Cigna Brass should be utterly ashamed of themselves and are the newest member of the MHoS.
