Current Music: Merrie Haskell - EP175: Reparations
1. Do you have the guts to answer these questions and re-post as The Controversial Survey?
You mean am I bored or a pathetic sheep? I'll go with bored, Chuck. If you consider this quiz 'controversial' (other than the incredible spin put into the questions) you need to get out more.
2. Would you do meth if it was legal?
Meth is toxic, addictive, and can cause brain damage. BUT, point of fact, most of you have done Meth. Sudafed is functionally identical to meth except that the delivery is slower. If you take a LOT of Sudafed at once, you'd get the same effects. Demonize it all you want, but lets year your answers when cold season rolls around.
As for me. No. I would not do meth but I really do miss Sudafed.
3. Abortion: for or against it?
For. Retroactively even. Starting with whoever wrote this stupid quiz and followed by my neighbors' 6-children-each-in-two-bedroom-apartment
s. SEVEN BILLION people is too goddamned many. We're killing the planet.
4. Do you think the world would fail with a female president?
I think this quiz is full of fail. What kind of pathetic loser even asks a question this stupid? Hello. Get off your ignorant americentric world-view. There have been many powerful female leaders throughout history.
5. Do you believe in the death penalty?
I believe it exists. Another poorly-worded and stupid question. Should the state execute people? Let's ask a different question. Are some people beyond help? If they are beyond help, can we learn something by studying them that might prevent someone else from becoming beyond help? Lots of people are completely worthless. Why limit our executions to murderers? How about old people with no family who live in a retirement home and don't do anything but watch TV? Aren't they a waste of resources?
6. Do you wish marijuana would be legalized already?
It is legal in several countries and they haven't collapsed. It is at absolute worst, no more harmful than alcohol, tobacco, or deep fryers, and it definitely helps people who have certain eating problems, so why not? Some other people might have fun? OH NO!
7. Are you for or against premarital sex?
Amazing! Another stupid question! If you're talking about religious marriage, that's between you and your imaginary friend. If you mean legal marriage, that's basically the same as asking if you think someone should have sex before opening a business. What kind of pathetic loser would even care?
8. Do you believe in God?
I believe in myself. Interpret that how you like.
9. Do you think same sex marriage should be legalized?
Old people can marry, people of different races can marry, people of different religions can marry. Once again. It's a fucking legal contract. Only a total fucking idiot would conflate it with religion.
10. Do you think it's wrong that so many Hispanics are illegally moving to the USA?
I should have figured you were also a racist. So many hispanics huh? What about Canadians? Is it okay because they're white? Newsflash! Those dirty hispanics lived in the US a hundred years before you assholes got here. Texas won its freedom from Mexico thanks largely to 'hispanics' who were then murdered and had their property stolen by racist fuckbags like you.
But.. Look at the bright side. As bad as Bush and chums have fucked up the economy, soon it will be americans trying to sneak into Mexico for a job and better living conditions. Congrats on that.
11. A twelve year old girl has a baby, should she keep it?
Yet another loaded question. 'has a baby' implies it's born already. A fetus isn't a baby. It has the IQ of a carrot. I'm all in favor of fewer humans but you know. It's really her choice, isn't it? 12 was a common age for marriage just a century ago. For my money, I'd rather have the idle childhood with freedom than be caring for a screaming child, but that's me.
12. Should the alcohol age be lowered to eighteen?
Why not? Alcohol is no more addictive than caffeine and we place no restrictions on that, or fat or sugar consumption. What exactly is the difference? Small amounts of alcohol are not going to kill you or even make you drunk. Was the writer of this really so stupid and brainwashed?
13. Should the war in Iraq be called off?
This question is incredibly vague and naive. The US had no legal or logical right to attack Iraq in the first place. The damage that has been done will be paying the US back with hatred and violence for decades to come. At this point, pulling out would save US taxpayers large sums of money at the cost of jobs geared towards supporting the war machine, but it is too late to undo the damage that has been done. So. We've already fucked up our reputation and right now we're just putting money in the hands of the wealthy by taking it from the middle class with taxes, so it depends entirely on your point of view. If you're a common person like me. Yes, we should get out. If you're a rich asshole like most of the republican lawmakers, No.
14. Assisted suicide is illegal: do you agree?
Here's a simple example of your bias. You assert that it's illegal and then ask if one agrees with that. So you're asking a person in effect if they have criminal thoughts. Very 1984. Yes, suicide should be legal. Yes, assisted suicide should be legal. In the time it took me to write the answer to this stupid question, 50 babies have been born. Very few people are going to miss one person killing themselves.
15. Do you believe in spanking your children?
'Your children'. Another biased question. Many people will answer 'I don't have children' and then you can just use the tired 'You don't have kids, you wouldn't understand!' if you don't like their answer.
And again, your pathetic dichotomous world-view is fucking sad. Define spanking. Most people only hit something when they're very angry. Should a child be hit because you're angry because you failed as a parent in not teaching them better? Probably not. Perhaps you should be spanked. Now. If you're not angry, can pain be used as aversion for undesirable behaviors? ... Sure... It can be used, but hundreds of studies suggest it doesn't work very well and very seldom teaches the lesson you mean to teach.
16. Would you burn an American flag for a million dollars?
Another stupid question. Most people would burn their own mother for a million dollars. They might lie and say they wouldn't but if a legitimate offer was made, you can bet they'd behave different. It's cloth. It's likely made in China and bought on sale at Wal-Mart. Is that patriotism? Waving a little flag? Why is it that every time you open your mouth, stupid comes out.
17. Who do you think would make a better president? McCain or Obama?
'Who would
BE a better president?' you fucking retard. How about you learn English. It shames us all that your vote is equal to mine.
Anyhow, in answer to your ignorant question, let's apply a little logic. According to the polls, about half of the people in the country are as stupid as you are. Half are not. Sad but true. What this means is that roughly half the people are going to dislike a majority of the president's choices regardless of who he is. So. Factoring that out, let's consider two other issues. McCain is the same president we've always had. An old rich white guy. Same old same old. Obama is of interracial heritage, as are a growing number of americans. Additionally, to the rest of the world, McCain represents a continuation of the Bush administration's policies and none of our neighbors are particularly fond of that. So, symbolically, Obama is a MUCH more powerful president even if he were to vote EXACTLY as McCain would vote. Ergo, he's a much better presidential candidate without considering a single issue.
18. Are you afraid others will judge you from reading some of your answers?
Honestly, I could care less.
Are you afraid anyone is going to judge you by the ignorance of your questions?
