Disney allows gay? I don't care.

Oh the things that have been going around. Disney for it's first time is putting a gay couple on one of its sitcoms. And people are freaking out. O.K. I know. I'm a Mormon who thinks homosexuality is wrong, and that we should not act like is something special. Mostly because it's about as special as a box of cereal really I don't see why if someone is gay should make a big freaking deal. And that's just it. Yes I know it is "wrong", but blocking our kids out from it won't help. As wrong as it may sound kids in a sense do need to see this. If parents want to teach their kids what is wrong if homosexuality then their kids need to know what it actually is. And if you support  homosexuality, then it works vise versa in which you can tell your kids it's O.K.. I personally wouldn't, but one has the right to say you can't. It's called the 1st amendment.

If you don't want your kids to watch, then simply tell them not too, and more importantly why. Because my parents told me not to watch a bunch of shows as a kid, didn't tell me why, and I watched them. It's about making people understand, not ranting about how it's so wrong and how Disney should be ashamed, and of course you have those ass holes who have to make such a big deal about it they just say shit that doesn't need to be said. Do I think it's wrong? Yes. Will I go out to accuse Disney to be a terrible company? Yes, and no. No the the  homosexuality part because I really don't care despite how they probably shouldn't. Yes, because well...

I hate Disney sitcoms. They're not funny, the actors are terrible,  they are always about some happy go lucky rich family who has the stupidest problems to deal with, and could the writhing be any worse. Yeah keep playing that laugh track, because I sure as hell aint laughing. Never mind  homosexuality, I'm just pissed that Disney keeps making their mill of the run bad sitcoms that our kids, normally girls, blindly watch because every other girl likes the same going to be a slut some day Disney pop star, wizard, and a bad singer with petty problems who lives a pent house, is rich, likes boys, and you get where I'm getting.

The real thing wrong with Disney isn't that they are allowing something controversial into one of their productions. Hell I can tell ya why Hunchback is my favorite Disney movie. Because they dared put questionable things into their productions; it aint new. The real bone we need to pick with Disney is how much market gimmick they do, and how they can get away with because they take advantage of our youth. There's a real thing to be angry about. Sure I love Disney, and am even exited for some movies they have coming out, or have come out, but one thing is for sure the real evil of Disney is their terrible sitcoms.

China's air pollution is affecting us.

I hate environmentalists. O.K. I'm sure there are some who actually know what they are talking about, and hate is a bit of a strong word, but I hate all the crap we here. Especially about not using our own resources. I find it stupid how we wont use our own resources that not only would help restore our economy, but that we have nothing wrong with buying lots of our stuff from a country that still has slaves, and oppresses their citizens like any other "Communistic" country has. (Note I have nothing wrong with buying foreign I believe in a global market) I could talk about that, but there's been a series news reports about how China pollution is affecting us.

Do you know why so much is bought from China? Because it's cheap. Why? Because they have little to know environmental regulation. That's right we cant dig a whole in a ground in our country with all our regulations that would make is to we couldn't just dump sludge into rivers, but hell it's O.K. for their country to dig a whole in the ground and then pump their rivers with toxic sludge. At least it's not our country that could do all that and not ruin the environment.

Despite it being well across the world China's air pollution is affecting us. I hate air pollution as much as everyone else, but thought America is a major air polluter, it is no where near as a country with an absolute lack of regulation.

There's gotta be a better way.

It seams that when every a semester of school comes around I tend to say something about text books. You know just how useless, or overburdening they are. This time though I thought I would just talk about lack of effectiveness of college all together. My biggest problem with text books, and teachers in college is that I just find it a rather stupid way to do it. Not only do I find it a wast of time, but of money, and an actual learning ability. To tell you the truth I find the idea of letting the text book be the main focus of homework rather lazy, and in no way thought out.

If anything I think it's just way for teachers to dodge doing their real jobs. Teaching. Unfortunately it seems like so many teachers only talk a bit about the topic in class then set you out to do the real learning and work on your own. Not only do I find this ineffective, but burdening. So many teachers teach this way, and it is a pain in the ass to have to read more then one text book, plus all the homework with the little time I have for myself as it is in the day. So yeah thanks professors for wasting my time. Time that would be more open if you would do your job, and actually teach or review things in class.

The best way I think to learn is hands on in class. Some people learn better from reading text books, but one things for sure I'm not one of them. Not only do I read slower than most people I have a hard time keeping focused on them. Why? Because they are beyond boring and spend more time rambling on about stuff then actually teaching me. I swear finding actually information in a text book is more like reading Where's Waldo, or in this case Where is the Actually Information?

I have nothing against a little homework. You don't always have time to write an essay in class, but it's when you have to write an essay or two, read a few text books, do a quiz on the text books, plus what ever else you got that things become beyond ridicules. Ultimately I think the center of learning should take place in class itself. I find it much more effective to take notes in class, and be able to use them. Because you will remember so much more from you notes then reading a damn text book any day.

Why do people still smoke?

I was watching the episode of King of the Hill when Hank catches his son Bobby smoking a cigarette, and after Hank begins smoking again who family is hooked and has to go through the hardships of quitting. It's a good episode, but it got me thinking. Why do people still smoke?

There was a time when we didn't know smoking was bad, and those people have no need to feel bad. It was a different time. But it is the 21st century and we still have people smoking. Now I know. It is additive and hard to break so many want to but just cant shake the cravings. But how did they get there in the first place. Now some got pressured in by friends, which is sad to know your friends are trying to kill you, but why does that happen? Why do people despite the facts smoke? It causes lung cancer, heart disease, and much more that I probably don't know about. Cigarette contain arsenic, nickel, and other substances that are must plane out nasty for the body. So again why do people still smoke?

Is it really cool? Because then if so is suicide cool? Granted some people still live long lives whiles smoking, but not everyone is so lucky, nor do I think people who smoke at the age of 85 feel very well, and it aint just because of the age.

What ever it is I still find myself scratching my head wondering why is this still a problem?
