Yesterday morning on the radio someone said it is #Pyjama Day on Tuesday
and they suggest everyone go to School and to work wearing pyjamas. It is for
some cause.
What nonsense is that again? Come on! Wearing pyjamas at work? Not only
is it dangerous in certain occupations but also sloppy looking. Pyjamas are for
wearing in bed when you’re going to sleep and when nobody sees you. The last
thing I’d like to see is people wearing pyjamas in a store, especially sales
people. For one thing—it sure doesn’t look professional. How about your lawyer
or the judge in court wearing pyjamas? How much confidence will that instill in
you about your case being taken seriously or how much respect can one have for
a professional person wearing pyjamas? How about a police officer stopping you
for speeding? Just picture it in you head a cop wearing pyjamas with his gun
belt strapped around his waist strutting up to your car, like some guy who
escaped from the Loony bin. I think I’d speed away.
I rest my case.
I’m always amazed when I see people, usually fat people, wearing sweat
pants when going shopping. Do they ever look in the mirror?
Just when I thought it couldn’t get any crazier, I read about someone
coming up with another wonderful idea. The latest thing is to hire a ‘#Marriage
Proposal Planner’. They give you ideas how to propose to your (hopefully) future
spouse, arrange the place and time, even arrange for the jeweler to come so
you can pick out the engagement ring, and so forth. Are people really that
stupid these days they can’t even propose anymore?
How about the wedding? Of course, there have been #Wedding Planners
already for a while. Weddings cost so much these days one wonders if it is smart
to get married. Perhaps that’s why so many young couples decide not to get
married and just move in together. It’s cheaper that way.
It doesn’t end there. Funeral
places plan the funeral. To die is expensive. I’m sure there are ‘Christening
Planners’ when you want your child to be baptized.
The insanity never ends. And everything comes with a huge price tag. By
the time people get married, they are already deep in debt.
Then comes the first house. It isn’t a ‘Starter Home’ anymore, like in
my days; oh no, now it has to be a huge house right away.
I’ve always maintained that the majority of people on this planet are
not normal. I wonder what aliens think (if they indeed exist) after watching
humanity for centuries. Will they eventually run to their spaceships screaming
and take off never to return because they just can’t take this insanity that
has gripped our planet anymore?
I’m sure that every psychologist has a list of what is considered
normal and what isn’t. There are, of course, different views on what is normal.
Sometimes it also depends in what culture one grows up.
This is what I found in a dictionary defining abnormality:
#Abnormality (or dysfunctional behavior),
in the vivid sense of something deviating from the normal or differing from the
typical (such as an aberration), is a subjectively defined behavioral
characteristic, assigned to those with rare or dysfunctional conditions.
Sounds very professional. But what exactly is not normal? What is considered normal? I’ve made a list of what I
believe is not normal. Some people may find nothing wrong with some of the
items listed. They might even practice that behavior and will feel offended,
but that’s okay. I’m not politically correct. Or what is considered as
politically correct. These days very little is allowed anymore. There will always
be somebody who takes offense.
I actually don’t give a crap.
According to my theory, there are #Universal Laws that
have nothing to do with culture and what is accepted by society. My philosophy
is this: Just because everyone does it doesn’t make it is right. It also means
I don’t have to follow trends and also do it. (Perhaps that’s not normal
behavior, but I never claimed that I’m perfect. Neither am I a follower).
Well, here is my list (This list is in no
particular order. Just random items as they pop into my head):
*Idiots strapping bombs to their bodies, blowing
themselves up and committing murder for an idea that has never been proven and
to get laid in the afterlife by a bunch of virgins.
*Religious fanatics claiming their religion is the only
religion
*Killing others because they believe something
different
*Men wearing earrings.
*Girls (and men) piercing their lips, tongues, cheeks,
and other body parts and putting foreign objects like rings and studs through
them.
*Covering your face, neck and body with tattoos. Some
of them are pretty ugly. What’s wrong with natural skin?
*Homosexuals getting married. (To clear up my stand on
that: I have no problem if they want to live together, even though I don’t
understand why a man is attracted to another man sexually. Nature (or God if
you will) created two genders, one male and one female. The purpose for that is
to propagate the species by having sex). I’m getting sick with all the hubbub
about homosexuals these days. Every TV show or movie has them. Why all these parades? Why is that shoved down
our throats? Straight people don’t make such a fuss.
*Homosexuality is not a normal state, no matter what
we’re being forced to accept. It is an imbalance in the brain. That being said,
these people can’t help it and should be accepted and treated like everyone
else, but, for heavens sake, stop making all this hubbub.It only creates negative feelings.
*In a birth certificate leaving the part open that
says: Gender of child. That is in case they finally decide what gender they
want to be. (How hard can that be to determine? If you have a penis you’re a
male, if you have a vagina you’re a female. It can’t get any simpler than that.
If you have both you have a problem). And parents should never decide what
gender their kid should be, as seems to be the case lately. Dressing up a boy
like a girl does not make him a girl or vice versa.
*Governments bombing the hell out of their countries
and then begging other countries to help them build it up again.
*Foreign governments sticking their nose into other
countries while their own country is in shambles.
*Governments giving away billions of dollars to
everyone who comes begging but not caring about the welfare of their own
citizens, especially when the country keeps going billions of dollars into
debt. That is insanity and cannot be sustained.
*Men allowed to wear ‘ceremonial’ daggers in a country
where nobody else is allowed to carry a weapon.
*In a so-called civilized, peace-loving country men and
women walking around with guns and knives strapped to their bodies or openly
carrying rifles in the streets.
*When people who have absolutely no education in
politics or have never been into politics can run for President or Prime
Minister.
*Being allowed to plead insanity after committing a
murder and not being sentenced to lifelong prison or even executed.
*People claiming they heard voices that told them to
commit an atrocious act and using that as an excuse. And getting away with it.
*Hearing voices (I have my doubts about that, because
nobody can prove they actually hear them).
*Raping a woman or, what is even worse, a child. (Men
who do that should be castrated)
*People using religion as an excuse not to work on certain days, and getting away with other things.
*Using religion to control people
*A segment of a society not paying taxes but taking
advantage of all the benefits. It cannot be sustained in the long run. You
can’t keep on taking without giving.
*Single women having a bunch of children and expecting
to be taken care of by the government
*Families having many children and not being able to
feed them and giving them a good home and an education. I think that's a crime.
*Men beating up their wives or girlfriends.
*What passes for music these days (Yes, that is one of
my concerns. Where is it going? To me it’s all annoying noise)
*Believing rapping is music. (#Rapping in my opinion is
someone talking to some kind of music, but that is just my opinion. You can’t
argue over art)
*People complaining they can’t lose weight and stuffing
themselves with ready-made junk food and snacking continuously.
*Parents letting their children become fat. That in my
mind is #child abuse.
That’s all I can think of right now. I’m sure there is
a lot more.
Some people say Planet Earth is an insane asylum used
by an advanced alien race to get rid of their crazy citizens a long time ago.
Perhaps there is some truth to that. How else to explain the insanity that
seems to have gripped our planet. All these wars, all this killing, all this
misery. That is not normal. You can say and believe what you want.
Perhaps humanity took a wrong road at one point in the
past and we are heading for some kind of disaster. It is inevitable.
Have a nice day and pleasant dreams tonight.
