I went to visit my cousin today and we went out for a bit and then went back to his complex and sat on the benches outside. Then a neighbor of his walks by with his 12 year old kid and they stop and we start talking about the knicks and stuff. The conversation switches over to the hurricane and the past events on new orleans and the shit in asia, etc. So the 12 year old chimes in and says "well it's our fault". After asking him what he meant he went into a whole thing on how in school his teachers, not just teacher but teacherS! They are saying that the reason that there has been a recent epedemic of these natural disasters from earthquakes to hurricanes, etcs is because of us. I figured maybe he was talking about pollution or the polar ice caps melting but he said "No, it's because we have been evil and made god angry so now he is punishing us by 'cleaning' up the world".
This kid was dead serious, this is what the fuck they are teaching him in school! This isn't some private school or nothing, it's a shitty public school where they sell crack outside and girls get fingerbanged in the auditorium. Instead of teaching what actually causes earthquakes and hurricanes in a scientific matter, it's easier to just blame it on the invisible man in the sky. No matter what any of us said this kid would not budge, he left still thinking his teachers were correct.
This is honestly some scary shit, I am sick of all this crap about how people want schools tailored around their beliefs. What if the klan gets together and says they don't want the holocaust or black history taught in school, it's their belief and their way of life. School like the news media isn't supposed to be tailored around other peoples beliefs but about facts. Opinions are one thing but this is just silly, you can discuss and prove or disprove scientific fact but when you start dealing with fairy tales as reality, shits gone wrong. It's bad enough that schools already had outdated text books that still referred to blacks as "coloreds" and the only time indians were mentioned it was how columbus had to kill the savages but thankfully some of that has been fixed but this is just overboard shit.

While watching Jurrasic Park at the end of the film they're all on the chopper leaving the island and the one scientist guy is sittting there with the two old man's grandkids falling asleep on him and he looks over to his scientist girlfriend with that look like yeah you see this two little motherfuckers I'm gonna put some of this stuff up your snatch there and pretty soon you're gonna have a little motherfucker of your own bitch and she looks back at him like you motherfucker you're gonna stick that thing in me and get every last drop up in here and then they look at the window and there's a flock of storks flying alongside them.
It was a very heart warming ending.

...from watching the eagles thinking it was over and getting ready to make a scathing post about how much of a nigger McNabb was for single-handedly losing that game but nevermind.

I see these movies where people go back in time, or get cloned or whatever and immediately recognize themselves.
I think that's bullshit. I honestly don't know what I look like. Like everyone else, I think pictures look nothing like me (I'm thinking it's because you see yourself in a mirror -- which is backwards), and I when I do look in the mirror, it's to groom, not to drink in my beauty.
So, being the case that if someone walked up to me and said "I'm you" either present-time me or from the future, in a Biff Tannen-like deal, I would need him to prove to me that he's me. Therefore, pretend you walk up to yourself and say "I'm you and I need to tell you something important", and present-day you says "prove you're me"
What would you say?
I would say...
..that I have had a little random tiny (1/2" long by about 1/10") black and red magnet with me for as long as I can remember. I have no idea where it came from, but I just remember it being on my floorboard as a kid, I kept it there growing up, and I've just always brought it with me whenever I moved. And I'm not even superstious. Nobody in the world knows this.
....I would mention how when I visited Pat Joyce's house when I was in high school, I stole is Rickey Henderson 1980 rookie card. I was probably 15
.....That for some reason when I was a kid, I always wished my name was "Dan", and when I met my Danny Kirby, who was the son of a friend of my father's, I didn't like him because he had my name. I think I was about 7.
