Now that 2012 is a month in the past...

I would like to make an exception that proves the rule, and by that I mean make a post that I'll do off the bat, letting petty business and excess emotion and rage take over instead of my higher brain and such, I'll regret doing this later, and it'll fade into obscurity after a few minutes, but I'll post it anyway to get it off my chest. Something like that, I don't know.  And I'll use euphemisms to help.
Here it goes: Frak Mitt Romney, frak Rick Santorum, frak Newt Gingrich, frak Ron Paul, frak Rand Paul, frak Michele Bachmann, frak hypermasculinty, frak Rush Limbaugh, frak Karl Rove, frak Todd Akin, frak frak Comics Alliance, frak the Patron Saint of Sueprheroes, frak the exploitation and destruction of native peoples around the world, frak the Tea party, frak corporate fascism, frak militias, frak Aspergers "curebies", frak the incompetence of the public and private school systems, frak Julian Darius of SequArt with his arrogant D-bag photos and writing style, frak conspiracy theorists, frak bloggers, and frak me too.
There you go, and please no angry comments or anything, this is one time only, I hope.

Bookmarks and history I found while looking on y computer

I'm going through old bookmarks on the computer, and there's like a million of them, but I'm putting some here that I don't know why I bookmarked them, or if I do, then I'm surprised it's there. And I'm posting them all here because there's some that might prove useful to someone else, and I'm bored:

School days memories Part I:Elementary and Junior High(Middle school)

I mostly have bad memories of public school, not for the learning experience, or the good people in students and teachers there, but all I can remember (unless shown photos or something) is a lot of the bad stuff from those days. And in the interests of my own psyche that finally wants to open up these to complete strangers viewing on their computer screens (in a break from taking in porn or complaining about films they've never seen), I will now start a list of these things I remember:

-Elementary school, there were moments where I would eat a lunch of a butter sandwich (because they were delicious to my young taste buds), and then get mocked by a chorus of older kids singing "bread and butter, bread and butter", I don't even know why. Or other times where I got made fun of for watching Digimon when Pokemon was in.
-Although in retrospect, much of the bad stuff in elementary was me doing stuff and not thinking I'd get in trouble, such as cutting my own hair with safety scissors during an art assignment (Don't remember why I did that).
-Things got worse going to middle school. I hated middle school, and the following items will be of that time until I go onto high school.
-The kids were much meaner and nastier, I know some were mean and nasty in elementary, but most of the time it may have been harmless (such as singing "I believe I can die, I got shot by the FBI") unless it me being made fun of. But middle school,  it was terrible. The kids I hung out with at the YMCA after school center were often smiling bullies, frequently taking advantage of my naivete so I did such things as say swear words in Spanish, or one scary day where they tricked me into getting onto a public bus with no knowledge of its route when I complained of how the Y's van was taking hours to get to pick us up, I nearly got lost until I got to the Y. They were all kins of kids, some nice guys who disappeared after a while, to middle class kids who were almost out of a stereotype manual, to big thugs and plain mean guys who loved making fun of me for things such as my talking about oldies music.
-Also there was a ton of random kids at the school who made fun of me, or tricked me. Jerks who would start picking on me after school even though I never met them, and my attempts to reply back with insults like "Get bent" made them respond that I was hitting on them. Kids who would suddenly hide under my umbrella on rainy days without permission(because we all had to wait outside the buildings before lunch ended). After school kids waiting for And this seeming conspiracy of kids, who after school would yell stuff that for some reason made me angry (such as the phrases "Nicky's hair" and "Happy Birthday"), then run for it, and though I did attempt to fight back using my bookbag as a weapon, they were always too fast and superior in every way to me. There were times where waiting for the Y van, I would get picked on in full sight of the kids waiting for their parents to ick them up, and a bunch of YMCA kids and others tortured me with things like threatening me with "pepper spray" that was actually candy spray, and no one stood up for me.
-And then there was this one guy named Angelo, he was one grade below me, yet a foot taller, this big meathead with rosy cheeks, Neanderthal brow, and buzzcut, he would always treat me as a target and openly mock me, talking own to me, and on a ton of occasions imitating my young voice, which was stated to sound like a giraffe. it's been years, details are fuzzy, but I lived in fear.
-There were good teachers though, but the school system itself sucked, because i did complain about these kids, very often, but only one was ever caught. It left me very cynical and untrusting of people, knowing that the kids were hiding from trouble in plain sight. They were monsters under those John Burroughs uniforms, and yes I'm saying the name of the school, because that name still burns in me as a scar.
-And this might not mean anything, but I do remember a lot of the kids during the school year and summer day camp playing illegally downloaded music and playing bootleg DVDs for the whole center.

When I come up with more stuff that I don't have a memory for off the bat, I'll continue this post. In the end, I don't know the causes of all this except within myself, but I do wish for a reform of the school system here in the United States, these might all be examples of unnoticed factors that mean the States have been going downhill in academics compared to other countries (not trying to be a nationalist or patriotic, just want to help prevent future catastrophe and unhappiness, if applicable).

Question and Rorschach

Rorschach was based on the Question. But then in the 80s, the Question reads Watchmen and sees Rorschach. Two things, one, why doesn't the universe implode from that meta-loop, and two, what if other Charlton characters or DC figures (such as Superman) were reading their parent company's other publications and imprints? (I envision Animal Man reading his own comics reading is own comics ad infinitum.)

A typical blog post: Stuff I hate

It gets annoying every freaking time that someone says that superheroes are "fundamentally absurd", "inherently ridiculous", "apogee of unreality", et cetera, especially when they give the connotation that it's the only thing out there that they think is absurd, singling it out, like nothing else exists but their perfect world and the superhero stories to be mocked even though they exist. Article writers, scientists, even the writers themselves (Alan Moore), it gets frustrating and annoying.
(Yes, i am aware there are better uses of time and life than this, but I had to get it off my back.)

Update on the Church of Scamology

The Church is taking an indefinite hiatus due to a variety of factors that were out of my control, such as some investors arrested for a counterfeit placebo ring; the editor of the postponed website turning out to be a not a ghostly white face in a mirror, but some guy with an unknown agenda who's gone underground, last sighted in Belize; and the chosen pastor apparently has been abducted by aliens. So sorry about it, but please, keep on sending the money.

A Rebuttal to Alex Jones

Two things: One, there are so many things to make fun of in Alex Jones, the radio host and King of the Hill reject, but as a sometimes-avid reader of history, the parts of his rants about tyrants taking guns got me thinking how inaccurate he is. And two, this is a neutral as possible informal post, so there's no citations or anything, and I am by no means being an authority on the subject here, and for all I know this post could be inaccurate without me knowing it. or something. Anyway, here it is:
The American Revolutionary War began in 1775, and enemies of the British such as the French were supplying weapons to the Patriots; meanwhile there were a number of loyalists who wanted to stay under British rule, not everyone was taking up arms. Hitler, he was popular and legally elected, taking advantage of the Weimar republic's weakened state from the Great Depression; plus, many Germans probably did not own personal firearms at the time, although there were also many paramilitary groups in 1930s Germany from across the political spectrum, but that's enough on Hitler for this. Stalin, had the might of the Soviets on his side to purge millions of people, and probably the only people around in the Soviet Union for a really long time to have firearms, and also had the gulags. Mao, during the early years of the People's Republic didn't take away guns, but rather used campaigns of purging and getting people to rat out others, and there were some counter-revolutionary rebellions that did exist with weapons, at least in the 50s I'm guessing. Castro, apparently he has loved guns since he was a kid, don't know how that's relevant but couldn't hurt. And Hugo Chavez, I haven't done any research since I'm nervous I'll find scary shouting posts on Google and not a single statistics chart.
Okay, didn't turn out as well as I thought, but I think the point is clear. Or not, so I'll spell it out: I couldn't find anything on stealing guns away to prevent being overthrown, and the statements made in his CNN interview show an awful ignorance to history and factors such as cultural context.

Alex Jones Speaks Out Against Rise of the Patriots(A satirical news article))

Making headlines once again after earlier this week where he traveled back to the 1930s while yelling at Piers Morgan on CNN, psychotic conspiracy theorist and part-time Ugly American stereotype Alex Jones is speaking out against the threat represented by the Patriots, a secret cabal that ruled the world in secret in the Metal Gear game franchise. Said Mr. Jones on hi radio show, "We have lived long enough in the shadow of these Patriots, who use the name to fool you into thinking they are patriotic, when actually patriots are people like me, who know the risks posed by foreigners such as commies and Orientals. They wanna put these tiny nanomachines doo-hickeys into every gun so that no one can fire them! Well, I say that we should destroy them all, and take steps to give every American training in battle like this Solid Snake (a real American hero, by the way), and personal Metal Gear robots for everyone! Let the government try to take away 300 million walking tanks, they won't, and the world is safe. In the meantime, I'm waiting for Grand Theft Auto 5, so I can kill some of those Los Angeles types who hate guns." After this, there was varying reactions from all sides, Glenn beck said something, but since he's an irrelevant hate-monger, it wasn't important. And Piers Morgan was sighted buying a  China Lake Grenade Launcher, his reason being "If he comes back to finish me off since I can't be dpeorted on his orders, I'll be ready" Representatives of Mr. Jones have no idea how he got his hands on the Metal Gear games,  which it turns out are very anti-war.

Nixon's Birthday

 Today is Richard Nixon's 100th birthday. And all I think about is how in Watchmen he sent Dr Manhattan to Vietnam, thus really affecting history and repealing the 22nd amendment. (Apparently, he was chosen as a way to savagely mock Reagan, as Alan Moore said "No one is going to argue that Nixon is scum", or something like that, which is funny because I was going on CNN, which had an article about how Nixon could be a new model for the GOP, but anyway I'm getting off topic.) What was I talking about? Oh yes, Watchmen. I wonder what G. Gordon Liddy would react to how he was the inspiration for the Comedian? Probably by assassinating Alan Moore. Anyway, that makes me wonder what would happen if you gave criminals copies of Watchmen, how would they react? Would they slam it for being unsympathetic or inaccurate to criminal life? And who would win in a fistfight, Stan Lee or some blogger guy who sits all day reading comcis then saying the comics suck and that he is great?
Ed. note: Sorry, I was playing backgammon with Khloe Kardashian, someone called me to edit this post? I'd love to, but I'm on break.

Generations (No, not the Star Trek movie)

Here's a post that will be the apogee of blogging, as it's formed in an impulsive few seconds without any editor, and will probably be regretted by tomorrow morning: I'm in a way glad not to be part of the cultural generation timeline, I mean I have grandparents of the Silent Generation, not sure of my parents, but I'm neither Generation X nor Millennial (I think, not know), and it's good because I didn't get involved with the shared path of so many of my school peers (from elementary and middle school, mostly), such as short hair. Although a lot of that might explain why I was always picked on, is it so wrong to be reading instead of using school computers to download bootleg music?

Thoughts on the late 60s and today

Been reading a book on my shelf of journalism during the Vietnam War, and as I reached the section on domestic turmoil, I couldn't help but think of how different it is to about 2012 to 2013. Like how construction workers, nicknamed "hard hats", were able to go around in New York and smash in the faces of students, and rather than arrested, they became a political force. Or the backlash to the Kent State shooting, where citizens wrote in and suggested vigilante action against anyone with long hair. Representations of the people being fought in the far-off, great, I lost my train of thought, I swear I had more. Oh well, I leave you with this post.
Edit: Also, how blue-collar workers brawled right when their jobs would become obsolete with robots? Nope, now I'm trying to tap a well without water. Good night.

Breaking News From Provo, Utah

This just in from our cracked news team in Salt Lake City, apparently Brigham Young University is editing their rules on abstinence for its students to exempt the Japanese-originated brothel practice known as Soapland. Says University spokesman Irving Prescott Freely, "We want our student body to abide by the honor code, but realize that if they strictly follow it, their brains will explode. So, after one of our students was caught with a video of the practice, we all got together and thought that it'd be the perfect solution, since they technically aren't engaging in extramarital sex, and logically are not sinning, and thus is within the rules." For those of you who want to know what this practice is, but wisely don't trust internet search engines, here's a link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soapland (By the way, that's the magic of Wikipedia, two pages before that I was looking for a page on audio-visual clubs, then thanks to clicking on the wrong link I wound up there.)
(Note:This is not a real news item. But if you pass it on as a real one, then go for it, that'd be hilarious.)

Last word on The Science of Superheroes

In retrospect, I never should have trusted that book, even back when I first got it. Due to such things as the authors naming the Hulk "This Man, This Monster", despite that any comics fan would know that's the name of the famous Fantastic Four storyline about the Thing. And calling Donald Duck by Carl Barks a superhero, and not once even acknowledging his Italian alter ego PK, and who knows how many inaccuracies are in there. That's all.

New year

I'm going to start over this new year, and I'm going to start by saying that I promise myself not to go on sites that will probably be no longer releveant anyway for reasons or another (ex. Comics Alliance, io9, The Patron Saint of Superheroes, TV tropes, certain comics forums where orthodoxy and such are to be mandatory and everyone else derided(such as one on Watchmen where they make fun of their reading material like it's ingrained and natural), I can go on but won't).

December 21, 2012

If the world ends tomorrow, I would like to say my two regrets are not getting a driver's license, and not getting around to self-publishing a graphic novel, i had tons of free time in between school, and yet I did nothing. But f it doesn't end, then I shall go up to a 2012 believer on December 22 and do the most annoying laugh right to their face.

58 years

It's been 58 years since Seduction of the Innocent by Wertham was published, and I'm wondering if comic books and their derivatives are any better off than they were than back in the 50s (not meaning financially, but in public and private perception, that stuff). And if it's not comic books, then would it be video games, as a new scapegoat and/or target of derision?

Thoughts on a day trip

It's disheartening, planning a trip to UCLA to check it out, finding your way to the science library so you can check up on old aerospace periodicals, going there by intrinsic motive, and then seeing the graffiti drawn in pen on the reading desks, the cleanest one I can say was a dragon flipping off a knight, and a line saying to a block of text "whoever wrote this is a nerd!".

On The Science of Superheroes books

This is going to bug me all winter if I don't say anything, but the book The Science of Superheroes from years ago is a disappointing book. There, it weighed so much but slid off easily once typed. I thought it would be a great book, but it left me almost hopeless, the authors being condescending and making frequent errors about the comics, pardon the word, super-judgemental, come off as armchair experts who self-aggrandize and use the word "logic" very indiscriminately. I could go on, but it all screams a 2000s worldview, where everything's trained to be bollocks (taken from a Red Dwarf episode), and there's nothing but a post-meta-modern thing on everything, and it's all ridicule, or considered "modern mythology"(which sounds annoying anyway), there's no care, no enthusiasm, no imagination or filling in the blanks, I can go on, but I'm not happy writing this and want to not be involved at all, with all this. And on James Kakalios, it just comes off as a jerk move to go into The Physics of Superheroes, give it so full of life and hope, and then ruin it by being a total jerk with the words "inherently ridiculous", you no-good, I trusted you!

A Less Emotional Follow-up to the Zehr Post

This is a addendum post, sort of like Dark Victory to The Long Halloween, and is more of some letting things off my chest while tired: I never liked the 2000s as a whole, and one reason why was the people self-appointed as intellectual leaders and warriors, such as two sides of a coin the authors of The Science of Superheroes (who in retrospect maybe were hacks who wanted to show off their savvy and trendiness in science while being super jerks, and also maybe it was like it was them making their own view of the world independent of observation) and certain American religious denominations and pundits (who in retrospect may have been hacks wanting to show off moral and intellectual superiority and making a world not based on observation), it got tiring to a point of thinking it will never end. Don't have an ending to this, so I'll let it peter off.

An open letter to Paul Zehr

An open message to Paul Zehr, author of Inventing Iron Man(if he ever reads this, unlikely since he never read the email I sent him): Sir, I have to register a complaint against you, because when I bought your book and read it, I was so excited, enthusiastic, with the respect and belief to the material, until it got to the last chapters, where you just switch gears with your snarkiness and hatred and tongue-in-cheekness and such on stuff like Iron Man's heart problem (especially the line "It's a ridiculous idea, but then this is superheroes we're talking about", where I wanted to throw the book across the room), it all just ruined it. And it makes you look like a discredit to science, to comics, and so on. I hope the philosophy that you and other people of this era who write books on pop culture academia use to elevate then bring down people becomes lost to time.
(Come to think of it, this can be used for many examples, such as Psychology and Batman, to a lesser extent though)

Post-election brain nausea

I really hope candidates don't campaigning for the White House in 2016 by next month, just want some time in politics that's not about the next battle and instead on staying sedentary in some sense of the word until 2015 at least. I fear that it'll get to the point where they're predicting the fetuses who will win in 2068's elections in 2020 (kind of like in Dune, where the Bene Gesserit are predicting the generations it'll take to create an emperor messiah of the Galaxy, although he was a generation early and rebelled, what was I talking about?), or that spacetime itself will become fragmented and people start campaigning back to previous elections(I would like to see that if it happened.).

Pornographic thoughts (wait, scratch that, Thoughts on measure B)

It hit me, why are pornographers and porn stars so mad about Measure B in Los Angeles? Why not just embrace it, buy a bunch of those exotic condoms, the type mentioned in that Monty Python sketch(where Eric idle is a Protestant housewife), they use them in the films, the films get sent around the world, and viewers decide to go buy those exotic condoms since they see it as the new norm. Once that's done, they can invest in those condom manufacturers, promoting safe sex around the world, as well as making some cash in the process. It's a thought, anyway. (By the way, if anyone decides to use this idea, please credit me or I will, do, something, I'm not sure what.)(I don't know if there was a joke I was getting to, probably not)

The Church of Scamology: A Theological Doctrine Written in 12 Minutes

After doing some research on religion (well, seeing The Book of Mormon musical), I've decided to found my own religion, called Scamology. Here it is:

I. The Church of Scamology is a religious organization focused on one thing: Making a ton of money with as little work as possible. What, were you expecting some big philosophical essay?... Fine. We believe that the Earth was created in a giant explosion somewhere near Andromeda that resulted in the spreading of a force called "Ego" throughout the planet. So all the ego was floating around, without a job or purpose in life, before it finally fell into the oceans of early Earth life, growing as life grew, until it became a power wielded in some humans. Some notable people who wield massive quantities of ego include Tyler Perry, Sarah Palin, the main cast of Desperate Housewives, and Jesse Ventura. And uh, yada yada, space wars, some other stuff, to today, where we seek your money for our undisclosed cause.

II. Commandments and wisdoms
   1) Send as much money as you can to Ultimate High Priest and Lord of Life and Everything Nick Scroggs; checks, Visa, and Mastercard accepted. No money orders please.
   2)When in doubt, spend money on Church-certified prostitutes with official certification patches (see page 73 in the manual What the Hell is Scamology and Why Should I Give A Flying Rat's Ass?, available January 2013, for details).
   3)Thou shalt not marry others in order to get as much action/nookie as possible for all yalls, but thou shalt always marry their money (the divorce it so it can marry UHPLLE Scroggs).
   4)You are a child of the universe, though it'll always prefer your younger sibling who's more talented and popular than you ever were.
   5) Never trust anyone who still uses MySpace.
   6) All debates over who's the better captain, Kirk or Picard, shall be ended with a swift boot to the head.
   7) Sabbath will be every Saturday night, so we can catch that week's Doctor Who.
   8) Other than that, do whatever, we don't care, it'll be someone else's problem when you die.

Dreams(aka an excuse to blog)

You ever have weird dreams? I know I have, and there seems to be no pattern. One night it's being in a comics shop where everything you could ask for is there, and another it's me involved in investigating down the mystery behind some faked anti-Muslim internet video that leads to a supernatural conspiracy including a cloned ghost army of friends and middle-aged Caucasian guys running the Black Panthers. What's really weird though is that even in dreams I can't afford the stuff I'm dreaming about, and yada yada, I'm just posting this to not leave gaps in the blog record.

News from Jolly Old Britain

In addition to all the current problems surrounding the Olympics in London, it is now being reported that V has filed a complaint against Norsefire, and Daleks have invaded and are currently battling in the streets with the Tomorrow People. Meanwhile, the Ministry of Silly Walks has nothing to do with this, and thus gave no comment besides its apology for bribing officials to make silly walking an event.

The Squid

So one day I was walking down the street in Santa Monica on Pico, and I had to stop to see that there was a huge honking squid on the sidewalk, I mean like it was the size of a car, just dropped on the sidewalk. And about only one person was paying attention to it, looking it over with some curiosity. And everyone else just walked by without a care. So I stop to inspect the squid, and the first thing I did was poke it to see if it was still alive. So I poke it with a stick I found, and I swear a tentacle just jumped up at me! I fell down, and noticed a news van filming everything, but didn't pay much attention to them. I instead rush the squid,  and I start wrestling with its tentacles, I have two in my hands when the police and National Guard show up in full force. A cop says over the loudspeaker "Drop the tentacles and put your hands in the air!" So I'm standing there on Pico, surrounded by law enforcement, with two tentacles of a dead squid in my hand, no idea what to do. So I just drop the tentacles and point to the squid "He started it!" I got arrested after that, and after I was released(on account that eyewitnesses said the squid was the one who started it), I got home, and found out we were having calamari for dinner.

Greetings World!

I'm still coming up with stuff for this blog, but I thank you nonetheless for taking a few moments of your precious life to check this out.
