About Me
Atheism is life affirming in a way religion can never be- Richard Dawkins
I will die in battle; that I am certain of. But I hope to die in a battle of my choosing. But if it is to be this one, do not bury me in our sad little cemetery. Burn me, and cast my ashes to a strong eastern wind.
A lie can get half way around the world before the truth has a chance to put its pants on- Mark Twain
"We listen to too many robots, we serve too many masters..."
When you become truly enlightened you become aware that there is no need for Faith or Gods. All logic, reason, and research verifies that ANY concept of a God is the "soul" property of the poor, frightened, or stupid.
If you're not old enough to see an R-rated movie on your own, don't scroll any further. There's more cussing than a Steven Segal movie within this profile.. So if you're "under-age", religious, depressed, or easily offended consider yourself forwarned, don't go complaining to MySpace if I told ya, ahead of time, NOT to read my profile. If I haven't ALREADY offended you, consider your skin thicker than most. Keep it up and I'll mail you a cookie ;P
Okay, first things first; I'm going to start off this "semi-narrative" epigram with my own quote about a personal pet-peeve:
"Ignorance is not bliss maggots, it just makes you a piece of DNA preserving SAP."
If you don't like the quote, you probably won't like the rest of what is here either. Sooo here we go...
Yes, I am Cortland's older brother.
Some are shocked to hear this since we look and act so little alike. Well, perhaps he is coming into his own ;P As the years roll by, I'm continually noticing that we do have a lot of similar likes and dislikes. I'm not such the anti-social vidiot. Empahsis on such. I'm always trying to find some time to play the newest games :DMost of you likely don't know, or remember, that I, (ahem) WE- have an older brother Kevin who lives in NC. He's a born and bred Southern country boy.I feel I received most of the charisma of the family tree, but I'm not just talking about the looks ;> We are three handsome men.Kev-o is enlisting in the military and begins his training in April. As for Cortland, he'd like to get into police-work. It seems those two have found their niches in life.
I don't, however, feel left out of anything. I'm still havin' fun and as of the way things are lookin' lately, I don't think I'm very far from finding mine. We shall see... After I complete my Business MGMT degrees I'd like to jump into Anthropology as a separate field and, ultimately, get myself in a position of double Masters degrees. From there, who knows; Maybe fame and riches, maybe wealth and peace-of-mind.On that note, here's a little more about me and the place I call "home" :
I live on "Main Street USA" in Oldsville, Nowheresburgh, shit town, moroseville, PA.
Found therin, is my dark, redundant, black hole of a borough that is void of personality, culture, and/or anything fun or entertaining.
This place sucks you dry. You want to leave, except you can't, you get stuck. It "is" the Boulevard of Broken Dreams.
It's depressing here. I need more sun.
Too much card stacking, begging the question, running in circles, and fishing for red herrings; but if you're an alcoholic or always wanted to be a car salesman this is the place to be- lot after endless lot, bar after skanky bar.
Everyone here tries to be everyone else, counter culture and expression are frowned upon, and kissing the horse's ass gets you by just fine...
Buuut I never had much of a taste for mule sweat and, in my eyes, the one horse in this town is half-dead anyway.
I subvert.
I question mainstream beliefs and agendas.
I am a proud anti-inculcate.
Hardly anyone around here values being honest with her/his self, or, anyone else for that matter.
Smoke and mirrors; Illusionary bullshit.
I hate this place and I need to get out lest I beat my head against the wall until it's soft- but that just makes a mess now doesn't it?
Trapped like a rat under the soapbox everyone takes turns standing on and fighting over,perhaps I'm just a bit extreme for the local tastebuds. I suppose that'll keep them from biting off more than they're willing to stomach.
But I stand for something, otherwise I'd fall for anything like the local ass-hats around here.
The media deliberately dumbs us down ( "Fuck you, Frank Andrews! You biased, shit-bag." ), politcs are corrupt from here to enternity, "christianity" and "democracy" are eroding our conceptions about our history, ourselves, and each other; the many societies and cultures upon our Earth which -ARE- trying to peacefully coexist- and it doesn't help to be surrounded by a subserviant populous.
Hardly anyone questions anything.
They just sit in front of their idot-box "tuning in" to catch the latest Jessica Simpson wonder-blunder or to see which fat-ass is getting kicked off "the team" for being too fucking fat and dumb...
Sure it's a good laugh now and then, but FUCK... what's so fucking surreal about this shit?!
Fuck Oprah, fuck Dr. Phil, fuck all that phoney judge shit!
Fuck FoX network, Bill O' Reiley, Rush Limbaugh, Anne Coulter, Larry King, AND Dennis Miller. Fuck Ted Haggard, Sean Hannity, and that beady-eyed Ratzinger.
Fuck white, suburban, rich kids who think they're "playas", "gangstas", and "thugs", fuck suburban, poor kids who cling to the same lifestyle like it's the only option open to them. Fuck white nationalists and the rest of you bigots and to the Styx with anyone else stuck in the mud pits of denial. Fuck our system in the state it lay in, and fuck you idiots that think the Bible is a historical lexicon.
Fuck soap operas and the rest of the tele-evangelists. Fuck info-mercials and reality T.V., fuck pop. culture, FUCK the corporate vendor-squeezing industries,
fuck "labels", "scenes", 30+ groupies, and fuck you too while I'm at it...
"Eh..." :P
I'm paranoid by nature and have an excellent bullshit-sniffer.
I'm what you could call a conspiracy theorist; a skeptic; a blasphemer, and I've got plenty of weight to back up my punches.
I prefer to negotiate or talk my way through situations...
...at least at first, don't fucking doubt me.
I'm annoyed by ignoramuses and just flat out fucking dumb people.
"Maggots, if you insist that you must ask thousands of questions in an ignorant bliss, I must insist that I will be an asshole. I promise I won't be so mean if you promise not to be SOFA-KING-WE TODD-DID!"
I'm an asshole because I expose people for who they are, because I'm blunt and don't sugar-coat my opinions, and because I'm VERY peculiar AND critical about my likes and dislikes.
I won't go as far as saying my head is up my ass only because I'm aware of what's going on around me...
"...at least the road milage on, even a LITTLE, self awareness is still pretty good..."
I may not come off as the brightest or most witty person you know, but I can certainly "hold my own" in an "engaging" conversation.
I am a GEMINI ( II ) but don't put my faith in astrology.
I'm Athiest and my "faith" is secular.
"I do believe in Karma." Not in the literal sense. If you surround yourself with light, you will flourish. If you surround yourself in darkness, you will struggle inch by bloody inch.
I believe that, somehow, everything is "connected".
"Not by a diety, but by simultaneous existence; acting, unseen "forces"...
and no, not ghosts, angels and demons, or this "Jesus" guy who supposedly wrote a book during "pre historical" times...
Rhythms, phases, internal clocks... eventually 'existence' synchronizes with its environments.
I trust my guts and follow my instincts. I guess, for me, self-preservation is more of a reflex than an effort.
"logic germinates, knowledge resonates, wisdom reflects"
Humanist semblences...
...buuut I can be rather unfair to people...
...I play favorites.
--={[the+end]}=--
I cannot stand the Bush legacy! They've brought nothing good to Americans in over a decade but it doesn't matter anyhow, anyone powerful is or is a friend of Illuminati... it's all compartmentalization, the pyramid effect... All we can do is educate ourselves against it all... and since I already started to, all I can do is rage onward...
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those that do not have it - George Bernard Shaw
I know where my anger comes from, I'm not like this for pure sport.
"Everything I say will come back to haunt me" and I don't give a fuck...
..._-={(|)}[life...feeds...off...life]{(|)}=-_...
Here's a little about the lighter side of me:
I would do anything for my closest friends.
I would do almost anything for my other friends.
I am concerned for the state of our nation and the world and that is why I am becoming more and more involved with politics and "outreach" programs. Change happens from the inside out. Cliche, yes, but true.
I would die protecting "my own".
I am loyal so long as you have my respect and it takes a lot to lose that loyalty.
I can help you as long as you're willing to be helped; as long as you're willing to help yourself.
I'm fond of animals...
...and eating them.
I like the woods and being outdoors. I enjoy a good hike to "get away" once in a while. World's End is a great place to acheive just that.
I can listen to music for hours and not care, not even for a second, I've wasted a whole day away. I listen to everything, but some genres I can't delve into in excess.
I've played guitar (rhythm) on and off since I was 11. Perhaps one day I'll get motivated enough to hone my skills and put together my own inde. project...
...who knows? Time shall dictate.
I like to write. I don't write poems, I like to call them "shards".
Just because I don't care doesn't mean I don't understand-
