Hiding from Jehovah
You know those folks that go from door to door preaching about their religion? Those are the Jehovah’s Witnesses that I find myself hiding from every Tuesday afternoon. Between 12PM until about 130PM I hide out in the basement to make it look like I’m not home when they come and ring the doorbell.
Now, don’t get me wrong. The Jehovah’s Witnesses that I have met have been extremely nice to me. And their cause? What can be more noble than attempting to save my soul? And, you see, therein lies the problem.
I simply don’t have the heart to tell them that I will not be converting to their religion. They’re too nice. I can’t say , “Thanks, but no thanks”. They’re too damn nice. When they ask to schedule an appointment so that they can have a “word” how can I say no? They’re too fucking nice!
I have no trouble saying no to telemarketers because I know that they don’t really care. But, these guys do! They care about my wellbeing and only want the best for me. Telemarketers are trying to sell me something. Jehovah’s Witnesses only want to share. Telemarketers make money for conversions. Jehovah’s Witnesses get peace of mind.
I feel like such an asshole every Tuesday when I sneak into my basement. I feel like a coward. Like I have sinned in some way. Oh, god!
Addicted Gamblers Sue Casino
In Ontario, a $3.5 billion lawsuit was filed against the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation on behalf of thousands of self-proclaimed addicted gamblers. Three and a half billion fucking dollars! Apparently, these addicts have had themselves put on an exclusion list from the casinos which is basically a self-banning program for addicted gamblers.
People who register for this program have their photo and information stored by the provincial casinos and, if caught trying to enter a casino, are escorted back out and can even be arrested for trespassing. The lawsuit claims that the program simply doesn’t work and those who have registered are still allowed into casinos.
I find this absolutely ludicrous. Is it suddenly okay for people to no longer accept responsibilities for their own actions? Everybody is blaming everyone else for their own fuckin issues and shortcomings. I think the Ontario Lottery and Gaming Corporation is doing a great deed to society by even proposing a program such as this. They have taken public welfare into consideration even though it means loss of income. And, what do they get in return? A fucking slap in the face in the form of a $3.5 billion dollar lawsuit thrown by the very people they are trying to help.
If I was the gaming corporation, I would plea bargain for less money, scrap the program, give all of those people VIP into the casinos with their own parking spot and seat on their favorite table, and let all of those fucking retards piss their money back into the corporation. Little bitches.
Tom Cruise on Scientology
Can Tom Cruise be any more fucked up? The following is a video of Tom Cruise talking about the ‘Religion’ of scientology…
Now try telling me that he is not insane. What the hell was with the whole accident example? Scientologists are the only ones that can do something about it? What the fuck?!?! He is too weird for me.
Jerry O’Connell made a funny parody video…
