I don’t feel alive if I’m not bitching

This goes for both ends of the political spectrum.

We have become a nation of overly sensitive people with our outrage meters primed to go from zero to sixty at the drop of a supposed slur. Nowadays every utterance is greeted with "Well, what is THAT supposed to mean?" when sometimes what is being said is merely an everyday expression or a colloquialism. Making a big fucking deal over every fucking little thing in life diminishes real life grievances that have implications well beyond "This offends me" or "That made me feel bad". There is a world of difference between someone threatening to "bitchslap" another person and, say, sending that same person off to die in a phony war.

The truth is most people don’t care if you are offended, they’re just placating you so you will shut the fuck up.

So here is a suggestion: stop being obtuse, grow the fuck up and calm the fuck down because you’re really annoying the shit out of the rest of us and, in turn, that makes us cranky causing us to use really fucking bad language.

Thank you. Now who’s up for pudding?
