What's wrong with this conversation?


A: I don't like feminism. They want to force a special tax on people with penises and they make a fuss about how society wants them to shave their armpits.
B: No, we don't.
A: Well, Gudrun Schyman does.
B: Not all feminists do.
A: So, what kind of feminist are you then?
B: I want equality for everybody.
A: Who doesn't want that?
B: Some men don't.
A: Ok, some men are assholes, so are some women, but what does feminism have to do with it?
B: I want equal opportunities for men and women.
A: You already said that, and so do I. Where does the feminism come in, though?
B: Now you sound like a real chauvinist pig, you know that?
A: Ok, I'm popping down to the pub for a while.
B: Yeah, you go drink yourself silly, why don't you!

***

A: I don't like communism. They want to take people's land away from them and put so called "kulaks" in concentration camps.
B: No, we don't.
A: Well, Lenin did.
B: Not all communist do.
A: So, what kind of communist are you then?
B: I want equality for everybody.
A: Who doesn't want that?
B: Some rich people don't.
A: Ok, some rich people are assholes, so are some poor people, but what does communism have to do with it?
B: I want equal opportunities for rich people and poor people.
A: You already said that, and so do I. Where does the communism come in, though?
B: Now you sound like a real capitalist pig, you know that?
A: Ok, I'm late for work.
B: Yeah, you go work for the system, why don't you!

Om vetenskap

Vetenskap är inget annat än systematiserat bondförnuft.

Preskriptiv grammatik kan med fördel jämföras med preskriptiv fysik.

To those who study the "philosophy of life" instead of the academic kind

I study the "energy of life". Hire me to fix your electrial wiring, why don't you.

Klassamhälle

Jag vill inte leva i ett samhälle indelat i en klass som övervakar och betalar och en annan som övervakas och får allmosor.

Closed source

This dude I know is running for public office. He isn't very computer savvy, but he's a good ol' boy. The party he is running for (SFP) sent him some material to fill out and edit in the ridiculously expensive Adobe Indesign format so he asks me to help him out. I tell him the format is a closed one and can only be edited with the paid blessing of Adobe. So this dude asks the central party office to make the material (templates for posters and such) available to him in some format he can edit. Now he happily writes me and tells me that their "Project manager for new media" - no less! - has promised to get him the material in ... wait for it ... PDF! How the fuck is that any better?

WMD


Who gives a shit if Iraq, North Korea or some other "rogue" nation possibly, maybe is trying to develop weapons of mass destruction when the US has not only admitted to having them but also on several occasions used them in combat. I don't get it.

Second post


Due to public demand, I hereby submit my second post. This one is easy.
Fuck anybody who uses closed document standards. Especially those in public office or representatives of political parties. What kind of an idiot requires the candidates for his party to purchase expensive closed software like Adobe Indesign in order to produce a simple introduction of himself? Fuck you! Fuck you very much!

First post


This here is my first blog post. Let's see how this thing works and if I have the discipline to keep writing meaningful stuff here.

First of all I want to say a big, fat "Fuck you!" to all patent law makers. So here it goes: Fuck you and the horse you rode in on!

Second, to whom it may concern: Get your heads out of your asses and stop that idiotic "War on drugs" of yours that's only putting money in the pockets of organized crime lords. And, while you're at it, stop the rest of your "Wars on ...".

Third: Religion in all its forms is an abomination. Stay away from it, or at least let the abominable snowmen of the world pay their own way. Stop handing out decent folk's hard earned money to Nessie and the Cookie Monster.
