Crappy food is universal

I would like to propose a ban on website petitions, blogs and rants that do nothing but wine and complain about what a crisis it is that their favorite regional fast food from such and such part of the country is not available in the part of the country where they now live. Sorry folks but regional fast food is still FAST FOOD!

There is just no way you are going to convince me that you can't find something equivalent where you now live. People wax poetically about White Castle Burgers, In 'n Out Burgers, Dunkin Donuts Coffee, Sonic slurpees, and whatever other slop they were raised on. It's almost as bad as religion, if you didn't grow up into it, I guess you just don't get it.


All you have to do is try some of these supposed gourmet things for the first time as an adult and you can see that the emperor wears no clothes. I moved down to CA from WA a year ago now and I can't think of any food or drink I am dying to get that they don't have down here in one shape or another. I suppose that's because I'm an adult now and I can live just fine without Taco Time's Tater Tots, Herfy's Wacky Burger Box or the Pizza Haven Buffet.

Ron Paul shows he's just as stupid as the next politician

Consider any praise or endorsement I made for Ron Paul in the past to be retracted. When you say something completely idiotic like he does in the clip below you are guaranteed to lose my vote and that of anybody else with any scientific knowledge in their head.



So long Paul, it was nice knowing you. Next time think before you speak. If you aren't smart enough to accept evolution you certainly aren't smart enough to run this country.

If that didn't convince you watch his latest TV ad which ends with him saying he will protect "our god-given freedoms."



Screw you Ron for making me think you were an atypical politician all these months. You should have spewed your BS right from the start and saved us all some time. So I've no idea who to throw my valuable support to now, I've heard good things about Mike Gravel let me know if you have any other ideas. As usual I'm not holding my breath for a decent politician to come around.
