The flow... of society, fashion, and popularity. Everyone goes with the flow and just follows. Why? cause the guy in front of you or next to you is doing it so might as well. We all were a part of the "Flow" at least once in our lives, some in jr high school but many in high school. We did what everyone else did just for the sake of being like everyone else. Everyone dressed as if they were in jail so even the whitest of white people tried to also. Then it went to the retro look with the guys wearing skinny jeans and stupid colors. After that everyone wanted to be a skateboarder wearing such fresh sneakers holding a skateboard acting like they skate. Then it all went to rock and punk along with all the metal. But why do people do it, keep changing themselves because everyone else is. All they do is waste money just to change their look again five months later.
I never liked the way everyone did things, maybe thats why I didn't have that many friends. But that was by choice... I didn't want to be like everyone else. Everyone went to wearing skinny jeans and retro colors I didn't even try. Then it went to skating but I didn't even care. Then when everyone went to rock and metal I went to country. I didn't try to be different but I just found it retarded how people changed because everyone else did even though they don't know who everyone else is, why change because of people they don't even know. But I believe no matter how much you change your cloths and hair you can never change the person so dramatically. Everyone changed eventually but some for the wrong reasons.
Lets get out of high school for a minute, why does everyone change styles after a year? Last year it was heels and this year its all about wedges. What happened that changed the "in" style to wedges from heels? To me it is all on the companies that make these products and advertise them, they then influence a lot of people to buy and wear the "new style" that was already worn two years back but people are too slow and narrow minded to remember. Then if you don't wear wedges and still wear heels people will know that your are "so last year." So last year? What the fuck is that suppose to mean... style isn't like technology where hardware becomes obsolete in six months. But companies and corporations make people think it is and style keeps changing causing more and more people to buy more of their products and throw the old ones out. But wait the last time I checked stuff we throw out doesn't disintegrate or evaporate.
What will we do with it then... throw it in space? Oh shit wait we already have a bunch of scrap metal and junk up there I'm surprised none of it came back down creating a hole in someones head. But then all of the style doesn't just apply to cloths or style, it can also apply to technology. Some people are stupid enough to get a entirely new computer just for the flat screen because the person they work with has a nice flat screen computer. People buy new Ipods, Zunes, computers, and laptops just because they came out with a new style and it looks cool, nice and all shiny. But they have no clue what is inside the pc or laptop, all they know is its pretty. So many people are impulsive and don't even think about anything before wasting money and resources. They say humans are more advanced than animals... a money plays with gold because its shiny and pretty, a "human" buys a new car cause its shiny and pretty yea so much for "advanced."
The point I'm trying to make is think before you act and try not to be like everyone else. The thing that makes humans more "advanced" 
then animals is the ability of analytical thought. "Improvise, Adapt, Overcome" the marines say that and it has a lot to do with what makes humans smarter then animals. The ability to adapt to any situation and most people who say "I'm smarter then an animal" and slow down at a accident just to try to find a body. Violent, and impulsive... sounds pretty much like an animal. Hypocrites.
Don't be part of the crowd, be yourself because if everyone tried to be the same then some of the greatest people who ever lived wouldn't be so great if they went with the flow. Thats why people in the 1950's were happiest because none of the yearly styles were created yet. There was no such thing as what in and whats out. It was what people were comfortable in and comfortable doing. The insatiable need for consumption was a large contributer to the crippled economy.
Whats the point of fighting those IED loving strangers. Why are we still there and why
hasn't someone ended the war yet? Most people think there is no reason we should still be there. That we should just cut our losses and pull out, they don't understand and never will. Hell most of them wont even know why we fought in Vietnam and Korea, those where because of communism! Wait oh shit do people know what communism means or are they just told that its oh so bad and for some reason red is associated with it... yea everyone its like a grenade.
It supposedly really dangerous and can explode quickly but no one knows how the hell it works... it just goes BOOM to them. I don't know how people would fear something you really don't understand. Well back to the war, why do we fight it and why don't we just pull out? No not because Bush didn't have a exit strategy... 
but we fight the war because apparently the middle eastern countries haven't gotten over what the Catholics did centuries ago. They all used to kill in the name of "god", that's why the Catholics had the crusades. No their not meant to liberate the middle east but meant to exterminate. Don't believe in god? then you DIE! Sounds a lot like the middle east calling Americans infidels or screaming their gods name before they commit suicide.
We fight there apparently because the US wants them to adopt democracy. I say you can't force it, it has to be learned and that is why I don't entirely agree with the US's reasons for being there. But when your actually thrown in to the fight it doesn't matter anymore, the only thing that does is the guy next to you watching your back. Well why don't we just pull out... because as soon as we pull out all these terrorist and jerkoff's that want power will start killing each other again. Then the US would have to jump right back in and fight another war all over again. That is one reason we lost Vietnam, we kept leaving land we won and fighting for it 3 times over.
Many people say bring our soldiers home, I don't disagree but I don't agree. Its easy for them to say that since they wont be the ones fighting the war again when it flared up a second time. Then they will become hypocrite's when they end up supporting the war effort. That's how people where when the war started, but people think we can jump in and kill everything and leave. The occupation is always longer and deadlier then they actual war, killing everything and leaving never works since someone else just walks in and takes their place.
So the point of fighting this war and why it is important to see it through the end is so people 5 or 10 years
from now wont have to do it again. Besides the media isn't even telling you the whole story. More Americans die there then everyone is told, we are only told about American soldiers that die that. What about private military... more private contractors die there then American soldiers, the main company is Blackwater. Not to mention the supply trucks, supplies and drivers provided by Haliburton. The spotlight is just never on them, the media is too concerned about American soldiers to bother with private soldiers.
Guns. Portrayed as such evil tools of destruction. but are they really? Maybe its just because people don't really understand guns. I don't consider myself biased when it comes to the subject of guns or knives. I just understand them and understand that it isn't the gun but the gunner. Yea maybe the gunner is crazy or is a bad person but what does that have anything to do with a gun being evil or destructive. To be honest it s just a tool like a screw driver or a knife, any tool can be dangerous if it is not understood or used correctly.
People don't read instruction manuals that come with tools what makes you thing they will read the one for a gun even if everyone of them came with one. That makes a saw just as dangerous as a gun, the only difference is the application of the tool. Certain tools are meant for certain jobs, you don't go and use a drill to cut some sheet metal or wood. Why... well because the tool isn't meant to be used that way but that doesn't stop a select few people that try it anyway. Only difference is I don't see the government or state governments banning drills because one jerk decided to be an asshole.
Oh no not a drill but a gun has to be banned. But why do people ban guns and not a drill? because it hurts people better? I can name so many ways a drill can hurt someone that a gun can't and vise verse, but guns are still very bad compared to drills. I think it is because of fear, fear of everything a gun stood for and what it was always used for. But is it the fear of the people? or is it the fear of the governments. Guns mean power and those who have power only fear one thing... losing it. If people have guns the chances of losing power greatly increase, so they ban them. But to prevent this is to cause people to fear them. Oh guns are bad, they kill, they hurt, and they are evil in so many ways a knife inst... right? When people fear something they avoid it and the fear em placed into people about guns is very strong and common.But to fear something is to not understand it. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean its scary. Lets say it isn't fear and people just run and scream whenever they hear gunfire because its a muscle reflex. What other reason would there be gun control? Maybe its because the gun can't argue back. After all I have never seen a gun hop up and go BOOM, now that would be freaky. But it is awfully easy to put blame on something that can't argue back wouldn't it?
But lets say guns are bad and no one is allowed to have one. If that was true a few centuries ago the US wouldn't exist now would it, "Without blood there can not be freedom". Did you really think we used foul language and rocks to beat the British army? If so you should really pay attention in school you might learn something. But guns didn't play a big roll in the revolutionary war you know? They just stopped the British from taking the US back and helped us win the war.
Lets use a more recent example. I support our troops in Iraq, not because I believe in the war but I believe in them. They stand for something that has kept the US at the top of the super powers list. Military might, the US military is the best trained and equipped military in the world. But if guns where so bad why does the greatest military in the world have the most biggest and most reliable ones out there?
"The right to bear arms". Sounds familiar? it should its in the bill of rights. But people misunderstand it, It was meant to be vague when it was written so it can be interpreted in many different ways. I also remember reading that if the government fails to fulfill its duties the people have the right to start a revolution. With what? sticks and stones right... yes and add some spice and chemical X while your at it and create super heroes to fight the revolution instead.
Many people would be like oh he is so full of it or yea OK doesn't change the fact guns kill people. I never said they didn't, they do and that is the purpose. But if the people can't even have the right to defend themselves what is the point? Open your minds and think about things other then what people or the news tells you. Fear is what makes you strong, learn to control it and understand it and you will be surprised. If you really read all that crap I said then thanks I guess =). thanks for caring what I think or decided to write.
What will we do with it then... throw it in space? Oh shit wait we already have a bunch of scrap metal and junk up there I'm surprised none of it came back down creating a hole in someones head. But then all of the style doesn't just apply to cloths or style, it can also apply to technology. Some people are stupid enough to get a entirely new computer just for the flat screen because the person they work with has a nice flat screen computer. People buy new Ipods, Zunes, computers, and laptops just because they came out with a new style and it looks cool, nice and all shiny.
