WTF

WTF

don't you people get it . . . .

they keep telling us where they blow the money . . . .

" leaving the United States spending just $5 billion annually on Iraq , assuming State Department funding remains stable at 2012 level of $5 billion . "

just

5

billion . . . .

WTF

in the next breath ,
they tell you ,

our budget problems are attributable  ,
to Social Security and MediCare . . . .

WTF

and you idiots ,
keep voting for these liars . . . .

WTF ,

that's ,

WHAT THE FUCK . . . .

and it's not the republican'ts ,
or the democraps ,
it's all of them . . . .

Wake the fuck up . . . .

I shouldn't have to be a wage slave ,
for the rest of my life ,
because of your laziness and stupidity . . . .

That's FIVE BILLION DOLLARS a year ,
without our troops being there . . . .

DROP THE PEN , BACK AWAY FROM THE CHECKBOOK ,
WITH YOUR HANDS OVER YOUR HEAD . . . .

allegory

. . . . in the Bible ,

Cain ,
slew his brother ,
Abel . . . .

Who ,
of his brothers ,
is he out to slay next . . . .

The brothers Koch ,
I think not . . . .

Tho' slaves ,
have risen up ,
and slain their masters . . . .

His brother ,
GOP contenders ,
surely .

They stand ,
in his path ,
to depose his brother ,
the President . . . .

" dead weight "

You've heard the term ,
" dead weight " .

No . . . .

Buy a book ,
learn to read . . . .

I was a gunner ,
in helo's in Nam .

We transported some bodies . . . .

In body bags ,
talk about " dead weight " . . . .

Think about two 18 year olds ,
trying to get these bodies ,
into the cabin of a 34 . . . .

Hurryin' to get out of the LZ . . . .

There was one ,
on a stretcher ,
partially covered with a poncho .

The next was in a body bag ,
we had to drag across him .

His buddies didn't like it .

Not to sound callous ,
he was gone ,
the vessel was empty ,
just putrefyin' flesh and bones ,
beyond any pain or cares . . . .

No disrespect was intended . . . .

He was lucky ,
he didn't survive ,
to be written off ,
by an indifferent country . . . .

Or ,
reviled ,
by his countrymen . . . .

Besides ,
the guy in the body bag ,
was fuckin' heavy ,
we didn't have the strength ,
to lift him over the stretcher ,
had to drag him across . . . .

The skin of the guy on the stretcher ,
kinda smeared ,
like clay . . . .

internet-ruptus

My internet connection has been down since the 6th .

CenturyLink .

Apparently ,
if they can't blame you ,
or the modem . . . .
the repair is beyond their technical skills . . . .

After the latest call ,
the fourth I believe ,
where I learned something had been done ,
although they didn't know what . . . .

They would try again ,
either Monday or Tuesday at the earliest . . . .

This morning it was mysteriously restored . . . .

Needless to say ,
I stand in awe of the technical skills ,
that have once again connected me to the net . . . .

I'm thinking ,
someone forgot to flip a switch . . . .

" Sarcasm - Sarchasm "

With props to the author -

" Tact ,
is for creatures ,
not clever enough ,
to be sarcastic . . . . "

While ,
I seem to be preternaturally ,
inclined to sarcasm . . . .
anymore it seems like ,
sarchasm . . . .

The depth of the difference ,
between what I said ,
and what they heard . . . .

WTF !

I don't understand .

Is it that people no longer read . . . .

Has political correctness taken the edge off . . . .

Are they nonplused . . . .
a passing thought ( it wasn't going that fast ) ,
can you be plused . . . .

There seems to be a dearth ,
of understanding . . . .

A lack of grasp ,
of the connotation . . . .

Of what I meant ,

Not in the words I said ,
mayhap in the way ,
it was phrased . . . .

Have we all become ,
so insulated by political correctness ,
that we fail to recognize ,
innuendo and insinuation . . . .

Has word play ,
fallen victim ,
to climate change . . . .

Have the righteous ,
used pedantry ,
to still creative expression . . . .

Have we all ,
become so self-conscious ,
that we take ourselves seriously . . . .

seriously .

what a sick fucking joke . . . .

I

never

take

anything

seriously . . . .

Especially ,
myself . . . .

any more . . . .

I don't drink ,
any more . . . .

I don't drink ,
any less . . . .

To paraphrase ,
Dr Denis Leary ,

" wake up and smell the fuckin' maplenutcrunch " . . . .

Having used coffee ,
with a judicious application of bourbon . . . .

The train of thought ,
freed from inertia ,
now a body in motion . . . .

continues in motion . . . .

contemplating methods ,
of slowing and stopping ,
the train of thought . . . .

short of derailment . . . .
( 2. psychiatry . loosening of associations . . . . )

Well ,
my associations ,
have certainly been loosened . . . .

might

have

been

that

second

cup

of

coffee ,

with ,
a splash of sour mash . . . .

" the forest "

disparate ( or would that be desperate ) ,
groups of people ,
coming together across the nation . . . .

protesting greed , corruption , malfeasance . . . .

a government that won't govern . . . .

public policy held hostage ,
to greed . . . .

this sounds so familiar . . . .

wonder how long it took for Hosni to see the forest . . . .

before it fell on him . . . .

think the democrats or the tea party ,
can see it . . . .
