Slander and Lies!

With every passing day, I see more and more, that people are completely unaware of the economic crisis that lies ahead. Either they are being mislead by conglomerate high ups that only spread slander and lies, or are completely oblivious to the reality that lies just beyond there intellectual grasp. Now I know SOME people are aware of the economic collapse and are planning for the worst, but hoping for the best. On the other hand, I have asked some people about what they know about the recession, and they are more interested in mocking the "big words" that I use, than learning more about the scary realities that lie ahead. Without mentioning anyone in particular, I just believe that the general ignorance of people is very very disappointing. Now I'm not saying I'm the smartest person, nor am I saying that I do not make mistakes, BUT, how can people be so blind, so completely self involved and petty, that they can't even reconcile what is going on in there life, or the lives of others around them. Given, some of the people I talk to are from generation X, but some are more from the Baby Boomers generation.

Another thing I hate is ignorant saps that think that reading is an outdated form of entertainment. Seriously, it's the most fun and educational activity I can think of. It's very useful for increasing your vocabulary, and can make for some good conversations with fellow readers. I always see people lacking in vocabulary (much more than I would like to) and they can't even think of a better adjective than a foul term (ex. "Look at this fuc*ing house.") Honestly It's embarrassing. Also I hate people that misspell simple words on purpose. For what? To make yourself look less intelligent, to make the statement "Look at me! I'm edgy! I do not know grade school english!" Anyways, thanks for reading my first REAL blog post. Feel free to leave a comment with your opinion/retort.
