Idiocracy

Ever watch that movie? No? Then what the heck are you waiting for? Go watch it so you can understand my statement.

Go ahead, I will wait...

I know you didn't watch it, so screw it.

For those who did see it, I really think the movie is becoming somewhat close to reality. I mean, have you seen all the stupidity out there lately? It's insane.

I don't know why, but I get a feeling that history will make a second Hitler, but only this time he wants to eliminate stupid people. Hero or villain, it won't matter...someone will want to exterminate all the stupidity.

Perhaps we can send them all off somewhere...I don't know. But I feel it may be contagious if we aren't careful. I mean, just watch most of the stuff on TV and you will see.

Turn on MTV and watch your brain cells jump off a giant cliff.

They are everywhere...

Superhero

We all wanted to be one since we were kids. Some of us still want to be a superhero on the inside and don't say it. However, what happens when one of your fears keeps you from being your favorite hero?

Would you be unable to "Hulk Smash" if you had arachnophobia and saw a spider somewhere?

That's pretty manageable, if you ask me.

But I got upset because in a recent talk with my girlfriend, I realized my fear of heights would prevent me from being my favorite superhero, Spiderman.

The web slinger, who jumps all over the heights of New York in order to save the day. And imagine if he were unable to jump all that high due to fear of heights...

So we got thinking into what kind of superhero I could be, despite my fear of heights.

We concluded that:

-Even though Hulk doesn't fly, he can jump pretty damn high and would bring down the aggressive force if that fear were to come out.

-I would probably not want to fly as Iron Man.

-F@ck being Superman, this one's a no-fly zone.

-I would be unable to be as awesome as Batman.

-I refused to be Aquaman, since he's just a swimmer. There have to be better heroes.

Perhaps I could be Flash? He's just really fast...

Maybe I could be from the X-Men, like Gambit or Cyclops. It seemed that was my only option, since I can be on a jet just fine...but flying? Nooooo...*sigh*

Oh well, here's to being a grounded superhero...that is, if it came to that.

Talking to Myself

I wonder what would happen if my teenage self saw what he became. I wonder how his head would explode at the very thought of getting to some places he never thought he could.

Not just that, I wonder what it would be like to have a conversation with my teenage self. Sounds like a pretty strange thing to do.

However, I think I would be able to kick my own ass at video games if I were to do that. Then again, I would take advantage and do some bonding with myself.

I would turn my teenage self into a hipster and tell him to like things before they are cool. Either that, or I will make him more awesome.

Either way, it would be strange.
