i think its about time our ty race ended. i mean all we seem to do is work, and .
now i love ing and ting- both are so rewarding. but most of my time consists of working my arse off to pay for myself to live + keep a load of freeloaders off the streets.
when i have a day off from work i think of what i can do with my day, but wherever i go i see a load of mindless ants crowding the streets buying ing christmas gifts and generally being degenerate.
now, my question is this...
what are we here for? to bring lots more pointless lives into the world? with a load of poor kids who will be brought up even worse than we were? and what can they look forward to?
is there anything to look forward to in the next few years? because i think the world has just been getting worse since the 80's.
another thing. why worry about polar bears becoming extinct? i can almost be sure than not one person here has seen a wild polar bear. so if they become extinct then what will be our loss? all ill do is make sure i have a wildlife program recorded onto dvd so i can pop it on whenever im missing the big ol' white beasts.
this world sucks cheese! |
I've been saying this for years, but no one listens to me. Nuke this hole and start over! The experiment has failed! |

It's because they've been exposed to very little, if any, "wants/desires." That's where we, as a culture, have failed. We'd be a lot better off if we eliminated a lot of the senseless things we have. In that aspect, I sort of envy those kids. |

Have patience. The next world war should pretty much do it.  |

It definetly is positive that they are grateful...people who have everything are all "depressed" and have to take medication for it when their medication should be looking at pictures like this.
People focus on their own lives too much and get depressed...I get depressed when I look at the world as a whole...
In regards to that above picture the questions that are raised are "why are those kids impoverised at all?" Because in reality if the rich people and governments of the world got together and helped out, these kids could eat like kings. Problem is human ing greed...we have the power to fix these kinds of problems but theres so many people who literally own airplanes and tons of other useless things. Not many people who have the means to help these people do so and when they do donate it's a publicity stunt.
The only guy I have to hand it to is Bill Gates, someone who worked hard for many years to amass a fortune and is literally giving the majority of it away through his foundation. People like Donald Trump and the oil Sheiks (sp?) of the Middle East should take notice. Theres a higher reason you have so much god damn money than to buy lots of nice things.
Theres not much one can do about this anyway...I guess what it comes down to is volunteering and helping out on a individual basis so at least you can feel good about yourself but it still bothers me that people who have such great means to help others decide not to. Then again greed and selfishness is very rooted in human nature and always will be. |

Do they really need to eat like kings, though? I mean, isn't being able to take most everything we need for granted what created many of our problems in the first place? |

I see you have quite a big problem. I'm also a bit depressed because I
can't relax in Christmas time and have to study hard for my following exams at university.
I don't want the world to end up now because I have so much things to do and I .....I can't predict what life will bring me next day.
A far as I know it's not good for anyone to live, spend most of time
in the same place with people you see everyday. You should get out of your life and try sth new... e.g. visit some foreign country with beautiful wild nature. Maybe then you'd change your views. It's not up to us to decide of the end of the world. |
