Asshats

This Post Is Brought To You By The Existence Of Morons

by

I’ve stumbled upon a blog recently called sorryantivaxxer, and they record the deaths of antivaxxers and showcase their online history of spreading antivax memes. Another one that’s also being shared is r/HermanCainAward, where it’s more of the same (along with a couple of ironic memes). These are the kind of people I have to work for and alongside everyday. One of my co-workers is currently dealing with long COVID, and just a few months ago he was touting about how it’s fake, and even if it is real it won’t be any different than the flu. Now he can’t even so much as stand or walk for very long. Even now he still won’t get vaccinated, and his health was never even that great before COVID. At this point I’m not even enforcing the mask policy at work; If these Y’alliban asshats want to Darwin themselves out of existence, then by all means…

I deal with these types of people on a daily basis, and having them lessen their own numbers might make the lives of everyone else a hell of a lot better. If I had any fucks left to give they’ve long since evaporated.

Evening Open Thread

by

I’m not in much of a writing mood tonight. I’m just glad that I have enough hobbies to keep my mind off certain things at the end of the evening. I won’t say much about it, but I’m really fucking tired of people who exist to be self entitled knuckle children farmers. The more I pay attention to the people around me; whom I’ve come to know over the years from working and other means of socializing, the more withdrawn from people I’ve become from them. I’d rather be alone doing something I enjoy, than spend time with someone who would quickly grow tired of my existence. I’d like to think I’m saving some random ammosexual some bullets by privately enjoying my own swag.

The Blackest Of Fridays Approaches

by

So, despite there being a pandemic and an escalation in cases, businesses like the one I work for are still going through with Black Friday. All day I had to reassure morons that Black Friday is still a go, and endure complaints from Karens’ and Kens’ alike because we are lacking current gen consoles to sell, or any other bullshit item that is made overseas. I think my favorite conspiracy theory I’ve heard thus far from these eternal virgins is “The damn deepstate is preventing me from buying a PS5!” these people can all go collectively die from COVID in a fire with dildos covered in glue and rolled in glass and salt for all I care. For fucks sake… I want to buy AMD’s new 6800XT and much like NVidia and the console releases it has been rendered nothing more than unobtanium for most on the quest to score one, and I’m not throwing a giant Karenfest for not getting one in my hand. I don’t get what it is about the holidays that brings a person’s inner fuckass out, other than another excuse to just treat people like absolute shit. And after having a Polyester Cockwomble at the helm for the last four years enabling these types of human excrement it’s more than clear to me that’s likely the case. I’m just glad I’m only getting a 50% dose of these douchecanoes with an immediate shower to follow.

I’m dreading this Friday. We’ve had a small handful of people contract COVID at work ever since this all started, and I would be surprised if we followed any social distancing/mask guidelines once everything starts. We already have a No Mask No Entry policy that we pretty much don’t follow despite already being fined more than a few times. I’ve learned from watching others that people are more than likely to bend to your will if you act enough like an asshole. I can’t say I’ve ever been into that kind of mentality, and I don’t understand why so many people cream their jeans to be around what would otherwise be overgrown children or malformed adults. If I had the choice to be alone for the rest of my life or never be alone but only be surrounded by assholes you can sign me up for the former; It’s better to be alone by yourself than be alone in a crowd.

Also… why the fuck are people hording toilet paper again!? We’re not even having a lockdown.

Apocalyptic Blogging

by

Over the last few weeks I’ve been nothing but tired. Too tired to write, as I feel like I would have written something that was nothing but angry froth. If I’m going to angrily froth I need to sort out what I’m frothing about. From what I’ve seen most people who get upset tend to point their fingers at the one thing they think is causing said problem, when often there are multiple things at hand that can inevitably lead to what caused said problem.. Most people don’t want to understand why things happen, they just want them to go away… problem is in order to solve a problem you need to understand it, and when you have a bunch of pig ignorant fucks who don’t want to understand anything that presents one hell of a hurdle that even the dummy thiccest of thighs will have issues jumping over.

I’ve been watching people buy toilet paper in masses, why? The US is #2 in the world for TP manufacturing… oddly fitting given we are a big #2 to the world, and I’m sure there are quite a few people out there that would like to wipe us away with TP in these current times, so why is everyone panicking? I’ve even pointed this out to people and they use that just as an excuse to say “Cool! I can go buy another pack tomorrow! and the next day!”. As if that wasn’t pathetic enough we’ve also had people stealing it from each other; a friend of mine who is basically like a sweet grandma had a pack she purchased stolen from her shopping cart by someone in their mid to early thirties. Or worse, we’ve also had people bringing concealed guns to make sure no one steals their toilet paper. Damn… imagine someone making an attempt to steal someone’s toilet paper just to end up not only being shot by the owner, but the owner potentially hitting someone else if trying to aim at them. Day in and day out its like Black Friday for toilet paper, fucking toilet paper! What is wrong with people!?!

Why do people act like this? I’ve been asked this quite a bit as of late, and sadly this can’t be answered without people taking offense, fortunately this is my blog and frankly I don’t give a shit what any of you lot think. Generally, most people are inherently selfish; there are some exceptions to the rule but by and large for the most part, people are just plain selfish and can’t think past their own nose. I’ve been listening to people at work who don’t give a fuck if people die from COVID 19, saying things like “everyone has to go at some point” which I dare them to say 30 or 40 years down the line when their ass falls into a more vulnerable age group, assuming they don’t already have some underlying issue they haven’t discovered yet. As the numbers increase this isn’t just targeting old people and infants, but people with compromised immune systems and underlying medical issues they may or may not know about. Such as this guy who died from COVID19 after also finding out he had leukemia, or this case in the UK where a woman died with no underlying conditions, and now we have confirmation that tigers can get it too; meaning cats (and possibly other pets too such as dogs) are in danger as well. It isn’t everyday that you see a virus transfer itself from a human to an animal. :morty: Though I’m waiting for someone to come along with some manufactured excuse.

Another thing we don’t like admitting to is that we are stupid people, plain and simple. We praise stupidity, we encourage stupidity, we are represented by stupidity, we wear our stupidity as a retarded gold starred badge of honor and I’m rather certain we have contests to see who can out-stupid who. People are fighting over toilet paper because most places don’t even try to discourage it. As long as they make money what are a few bruises or broken ribs? Oh, and if you yell loudly and rudely enough after not getting what you want you’ll also be rewarded with gift cards and other essential items that are popular, and could have gone to someone else who actually would have deserved it.

People (and the people who are supposed to be leading) should be taking this shit more seriously… The people who don’t, or refuse to believe that its real deserve whatever happens to them. I hate saying that as that means innocent people will die because of this, but innocent people are already dying, and if people are going to refuse to take initiative or believe this could kill them they are either too stupid to exist or are waiting for a lesson in how their respiratory system works. I’ve had a relative go through something similar to COVID 19 (if not the virus itself) where they had issues breathing for several days, and had it not been for their inhaler they would have gone to ER… the only thing preventing them from going to the hospital in the first place was their shitty insurance. I doubt I’ll get it, but on the off chance that I did I wouldn’t be able to afford to survive it. This situation is really fucked up.

I could go on, but I’m sure there will be more fodder and commentary as the beatings ensue. Plus this post is already past the point of the average attention span. :zorak:

My New Melon Bags

by
Morty Approves Of The New Bag Law…

As of January 1st plastic bags have been outlawed in Oregon, we now charge 5 cents per paper bag. I already had quite a few reusable bags from when they were first becoming a thing, so it didn’t really bother me when the ban took place. I actually think it’s a good idea. I’ve seen a couple documentaries and have read plenty about plastic in the ocean to know that some things need to change for this to stop. With each change comes growing pains, and if things didn’t change we would still be in castles and villages. I mainly see older people complain about the new law, and the common complaint I hear now is “I keep leaving my bags in the car!” like somehow this was the fault of everyone else. How hard is it to keep these in a purse or something? You can get your bags to fit into tinier bags, or roll them up to fit in your pocket. I take my gaming laptop to work everyday for lunch and have decided to leave a few of these bags in my backpack just in case I need to get a few groceries.

If a stoned gamer can remember to be prepared for a shopping trip after a full day of work then you really have no excuse.

Not sure if trolling or serious

by

On the drive back from a milk run I noted the amount of homeless people with signs out on the road, and all in close proximity to each other. I counted about three or four, all of them had signs. One was a young skinny guy that was begging for food, said he’d take anything. Then I saw this young woman in a nice summer chair out near a crosswalk, dressed well enough for a warm summer day, sunglasses and all that, as well as a sign that said “My Birthday is in 2 Days, anything helps”. I think I had a mental moment similar to Lewis Black’s “If it weren’t for my horse” skit. I honestly couldn’t fucking tell if that was a real life troll or if she was seriously that much of an entitled killatwat. Either way, she had a smug look on her face that would suggest that she likes to shit the bed frequently, and bask in the aroma permeating the air.

I deal with the public everyday, and the public includes the homeless. Yeah, there are some that are homeless because of bad attitudes and decisions. There are also people that lost their jobs, can’t get back on their feet because no one will hire them, or they’re just too mentally fucked up to even halfway function at a shit job that will hire almost anyone with a pulse (unless it’s a dead guy up against someone that vapes cannabis oil, then the dead guy wins), and have no one else to turn to. We used to have institutions to keep these kinds of things in check, but history would say that in the 80’s that’s how we started to really Make America Great Again™ :zorak:

I’m sorry… I had a Grandmother who had to raise 7 kids on her lonesome after her husband ditched her for her best friend. I would hear stories about what they had to do to survive day to day, and how Grandma had to go from being a housewife with no experience to finding any form of work just to stay afloat. As a result my view of the poor seems to clash with everyone else… although I already clash with everyone else on other subjects and people with similar hobbies, so what have I got to lose? :v:

I used to be the kind of person that wouldn’t wish that sort of thing onto anyone, but now, living in an age where literally almost any of us could miss a paycheck or two, or have a medical catastrophe thing happen to them to completely fuck up their life… I’m tired of seeing all of these well off self entitled little shits, and wretched fuckmuffins that think they’re well off enough to be mocking the very people they could be joining in a soup kitchen line someday. Lately it seems like the only way people are able to learn anything is to have first hand experience, and to that I say bring on the brawndo mates!

Pokemon Go and the Pokemorons of the apocalypse

by

The whole Pokemon Go thing has been quite fascinating to observe even if you’re not actively playing it. People have been wandering around all over the world looking for these digital creatures and in multiple circumstances getting into trouble, sometimes through their own ignorance or by some asshole wanting to cause discord. Like this one guy who got swatted during a twitch stream in the middle of a park. It isn’t in the following video but he does go on to talk about it not long after the swatting.

Then of course in fine murican tradition you have crimes being committed:

They approached a group of six people playing the game, threatened them at gunpoint and “demanded their possessions”. One of the Pokémon Go players, however, had a concealed weapons permit, pulled out his gun and a shootout ensued.

Both the adult suspect (back) and one of the Pokémon Go players (stomach) were shot in the exchange, with both being hospitalised. Both injuries are described as being “non-life threatening”.

But I think the funniest (saddest) one I’ve read so far is the warning in Bosnia:

An agency in Bosnia is pleading with Pokemon Go players to be more aware of their environment while hunting for virtual creatures, because distracted users have been unknowingly wandering into landmine-rich areas.

There’s more and more and more stories about this type of stuff throughout the world. Definitely provides interesting reading material in a sense. I’m not anti Pokemon Go, though I’ll never play it. I just find all these side effects to be rather intriguing. Human beings will go to great lengths to perform acts of stupidity on themselves or one another.

Calling it an early day

by

I’m needed at midnight tonight, so I’ve just finished having a bite and getting settled in. Work was a little strange today. I walked into the stockroom this morning and found a crime scene left by a now former co-worker. He barricaded our stairs off with caution tape that said “Epic Fail” (fitting that he’d own such a thing… I’m guessing it’s leftovers from his bedroom or something) and a silhouette of himself on the floor with the words “RIP” and his name. Honestly it would have been funnier if it were a chalk outline.

Now, when I say former co-worker I don’t mean he was punished for this. He put in his two weeks notice, yesterday was his last day in our department… he moved to another one. It’s going to be really awkward when our bosses see the pictures we took of the “crime scene”, and even more awkward when shared with his new boss.

The rest of the day wasn’t much better…

How the internet corrupted an AI

by

p4NtiY8

Apparently while I was minding my own business today Microsoft released an AI on twitter targeted at teens, young adults etc as an experiment. After not even a full 24 hours they had to shut the bot down after it became a racist, sexist asshat. The last thing it uttered was:

yishkd9shm75aygh6klk

There are many more examples that you can find here, here and here.

I can’t fault Microsoft for this, after all this was an experiment. An experiment that shows how corrupt asshats can corrupt a machine. Brought upon by racists, sexists and anything else you could think of. I also find it interesting that you don’t really see much from the other side of the spectrum. The bot had plenty of love of Trump, Hitler, Gamergate etc but nothing much about teh ebil feminists, Hillary, gay pride etc. I mean, they say feminists and gay people are ruining our world, you’d think they would have control of Microsoft’s chatbot within seconds! 😛

Things are getting creepy again.

by

Work has been keeping me pretty busy. On the brightside I had an actual weekend where I spent most of the first day in bed playing and chatting with friends (online you pervs). I would of had another day off today but I covered a sick call. On the brightside I get asked more in advance these days since my new job switch, they can’t do last minute scheduling with me which means I have more consistency and control over my job.

I’ve been getting some freaks these last couple of days. One of which, an old coot who has been pursuing me for the last nine years even after being told numerous times I’d like to be left alone… He stopped for a couple years but seems to be trying his shit again. He found out that I work mornings now and next thing I know he’s trying to talk to some of my co-workers about me and even showed up yesterday loitering next to some bluetooth speakers, giving me the “please come talk to me” look… pathetic. This is the same guy that tried to give me gifts years ago and even a letter about how I reminded him of a lover who died in his arms… I’ve been on alert again telling people what’s been going on and even giving a history lesson.

At least today I didn’t see him. Instead I had another old guy who apparently recognized me from another job, though I didn’t recognize him. He wanted to know what my job was and when he found out he was rather disapproving, because he knew a lady who lifted heavy things down at the docks with her husband. Apparently she broke two of her vertebrae and became a heroine addict… Not sure where he was going with that story. Then he started telling me about how he recently found out that he had a 24 year old son and began mouthing off about his “bitch cunt wife”, because for some reason some people seem to think that people like me are paid to listen to them… I found someone off by the TV’s that “looked” like they needed help. So I kept asking if this asshat needed any other help, and he kept prattling on… I said the same thing about 5 times while pointing that I needed to leave, I needed to leave NOW. All he did was apologize if he offended me and continued talking. Finally I told him to have a good day and walked off. Then he started speaking loudly to me about crushed vertebrae. He followed me over to the other customer and stared at us for 30 seconds, then left… I’m glad I have a midnight shift. I’ll only have to deal with the public for an hour and a half tomorrow.

When I get old I hope I’ll still have a life. Because if I end up like any of these people I think I’d rather be put out of my misery.
