What is wrong with the world ( my view)

I realized when I sat and listened to a friend nag at me about using milk instead of soy milk. Since she is one of the most unhappy people I know I saw that this is where the problem is.

Since when did a bean produce milk? I mean come on people that is why the world is so damn cranky. No one eats meat, some don't eat veggies and we think we get milk from a bean?


And then we have those that do the fake~n~bakes. Yes, you guilty folks who forgo the real sun and tan for ten minutes in a coffin with lights. I know self tanning is productive, but not when you are an orange shade (and trust me I have seen some orange ladies running around and even men) and fail to notice that you look like you're from another planet.


Something else I have noticed. Everything can be done in two seconds it seems or two minutes. From food to cleaning. We have it fast and easy now. Wipes that do what elbow grease used too. Microwaves that zap up our stuff in minutes. and we like it. We live for this faster paced world.


Or so they say.  Me? I long for the days when you didn't have to feel rush all the time.

Why are we doing this to ourselves? Where are we going in such a hurry?


And as for food? Since when does healthy have to taste like crap? As my Mom and a few other sane folks have pointed out, it doesn't have to taste like sawdust to be healthy right?


Are we over obsessed with being something that we aren't ready for?


Is this why half of America is on medication for nerves, stress or depression? I firmly believe it is.


We all are striving to compete in a modern world and along with it, our brains and manners have flown out the window.


I mention manners because I had a man hold the door for me and it darn near had me keeling over in a stroke. This used to be common, but now poor men don't know what they are supposed to do for us anymore. And yes for you females out there I mean Us.


We hold them up to unbearable standards at times (though men? I am not finished yet don't clap to much) they are supposed to acknowledge us as equals and treat us as Queens and yet? I have seen the way women in the real world talk about them. Some friends of mine won't even allow their husbands to play ball on weekends with their friends. Why? Cause all his time should be with her? Oh heavens . People get sick of staring at the same old face over and over. Trust me I know this from experience. Give them a little line and some room and you would be amazed Ladies at what comes back.


Now onto the men. What is with men and cyber sex? I have had several friends catching husbands looking at breasts online. Why? There is a pair in the bedroom right? How does one have cyber first of all? I mean I write about sex yes, but I have no clue truly when it comes to "doing it, talk to me honey" let me hear ya moan. What? Since when did typing replace a body?  I want a nice hot warm body next to me, someone I can talk dirty to in person.  (No I don't want lessons either) I have tried.. Seriously with Javier.. didn't work.. was laughing and making faces the whole time, guess I don't have quite the imagination I thought I did..


And someone? Tell those kids at the mall to wear clothes that fit, cause I am tired of looking at underwear damn it. Thongs and boxers oh GOOD God! I am now my Father.. that is enough for the moment.. More thoughts later.. Take Care and don't take offence..

    Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!! Okies. I agree that things move too fast, and I'm 18 for god's sake. I'd love for things to move slower and everyone to just take some time out and calm the hell down. And to think kids my age don't know how to wear clothes. Shits me up the wall too... how can I check out a guys ass if they won't wear jeans that fit!!!!!!

    outstanding. I make fun of my soy milk drinking friends. Its juice when you get right down to it, milk only comes from things with tits to produce it.

    Good for you! I happen to like having the door opened for me, and I get it quite often. My husband treats me like a queen, because I treat him like a king. But, we truly have only ourselves to blame. You certainly have some very valid points. This is so funny, but it's also so true.

    very good

    I must have missed out on some of the meaning in this. You see I have a new computer program that removes 90 percent of the words and still promises to tell you the gist of what you are reading.

    I did get, "Oh god, I've become my father." He must have been smarter than I gave him credit for.

    A great read,
    thanks,
    John

    Oh hell I don't like that soy crap or that fake meat stuff either. I don't know why you would think there was anything wrong with you Miss catressa. We are allowed to have our own tastes and opinions the same as everyone else. I know it says the original diet of man was fruit and nuts but come on, you can only do that for so long.

    Hey Cat,

    I love your soapbox sessions!!! Gotta say, you hit the mark nearly every time. I know a great many people who share your views...so why can't we back up a little and let common sense take precidence over microwave-popcorn-HDready-broadband-diamondlane-straight-to-hell-in-a-handbasket 'progress?'

    Okay, okay...there's no room for two of us on your soapbox, so I'll just say "Great Write" and "Thanks for the laughter" and then I'll shut the f&^K up

    We want everything quick so we have more time to absorb everything coming at us at the speed of light. We are bombarded with advertising on all sides. For Pete's sake! If you can't tell what channel you are on by the number, you have too many choices! Who needs that darn network icon in the lower corner of the screen? Anyways...you have a good rant here! Certainly entertaining...
