Silly is you in a natural state,
and serious is something you have to do
until you can get silly again

-sniffles- I'm getting sick. xP

There they are a'standing in a row!

There's nothing like waking up, hearing a bit of news, and having the rest of your morning destroyed. ARGH. People can people so ignorant and wrapped up in themselves, I tell ya. stressed

Eh, there are always going to be stupid people out there...

It's not okay, but it's okay, in a way. I'm just calmly eating my bowl of cereal, knowing I'll relax when my tummy is fool.

There's a trend: I'm at my worst when I'm hungry and when I'm sleepy. *Smiles like she's still 3 and missing teeth.*

Didn't say it was okay. I just meant that if we ignored them instead of putting them in the media, maybe there wouldn't be so many. I mean honestly, I think most of them do it because they know it'll get them in the news. :/

Ugh. Hunger and sleep are a bad combo.

You have to wonder, though, how they get to where they are in the media. Like, how they managed to get broadcasted. >/

The media is retarded and can't think of anything better to put on?

Depends on the station and their political affiliation. I watched a thing about FOX and how they'll tell people to shut up when their views on something don't correspond to their own.

There were memos put into the documentary, gathered by the head of the station, dictating to the stations on what they should talk about during the day. So. Pretty much the people that talk about the news are only doing what they've been told to do, which is sad, because they end up becoming brainwashed in the end.

Yeah, there's a lot of that in the media, especially during political campaigns. razz It's pretty ridiculous how embellished everything is.

I'm not really one for politics. I mean, the subject isn't something I'll read up on casually. There have been times, during classes, however, where I want to hide away in the library and read up on the foundation of politics -- perhaps how the American government was established.

I'm sure when I understand the back story, I can better connect the issues of today in my mind and then make a sensible decision.

[penned ignorance]

Yeah, I'm not big on politics either. :/ Not that I don't find it interesting, it's just not the kind of thing one reads up on for fun...

Pollitics are an important and vital nuisence.

As are a lot of things.

Unfortunately, if we treat something like a nuisance, we're more likely to bash it than actually take care of it. Take... a noisy toilet, for example, that runs and runs and runs. The water inside the tank is being wasted. Instead of jiggling the handle, hoping that'll fix the noise, go to the hardware store and fix the rubber stopper inside.

It's the same with politics. A lot of people are just like "Ugh, not again" when they could instead become educated and say, "Hey, I have a solution you could consider."
