So.
Perez Hilton is some wannabe "Queen of media" who somehow gets paid to blog and appear Cool.
Yet all I see is some nobody living out his frustration on celebrities in a very public forum.
How does one get this? Why don't actual "normal-er" people get to do what he does and make ridiculous money? Wait, I take that back. Never, ever could I do what he does. I think that when I saw him post that Kate Moss was looking fat, any tiny amount of MAYBE respect left I had for him vanished.
Is THAT the message our generation wants to pass on to girls and young women? Jesus. I'd LOVE to be "Fat" like Kate!! And I'm not a fan of hers. She actually leaves me rather indifferent but come on. FAT??
He just basically goes around calling people names, spewing shit about people he's probably never met. AND. Getting money for it. Wtf??
Again, in no way am I qualified to judge anyone. And I don't know this person but it still irks the crap out of me to see this type of behaviour rewarded and encouraged.
If you were in the public light, would you not want to use every ounce of your "celebrity" to do GOOD??

Mr. Jesse James
Wow.
People think he's just some bum turned rich. Totally not.
I love this man.
The end.

"Imported" citizens
I was out with my sister in law who is from small-town-small-minded Quebec. Of course, this poor woman has never seen so many different cultures reunited in one place at one time. This is Toronto. Where there is no minority and no majority. And of course, she said it "Damn imports". I would have liked to slap her however, violence isn't my forte.
There is nothing more ignorant that hearing someone say "I'm pure Canadian/American" Oh really?? So you are from pure native descent then?? A long pause then "Well uhh...no" precisely. Therefore, you aren't pure anything. You're just as "Imported" as the other guy you dumb fuck. Your people crossed the pond, participated in genocide and decided to claim a country that wasn't theirs. So you need to get over yourself.
That being said.
This country (Canada) was founded by caucasian christians. For hundreds of years, this was 99.9% of the population here. So let's use an example.
First off, I believe in only 1 race. That would be the human one. Extra terrestrials are beyond my comprehension therefore, I will only keep it at 1 race. Don't get me wrong, in no way am I arrogant enough to believe that we are the only planet with "Intelligent life" but you get the picture.
So. As I was saying. 1 race. Many, many different beliefs and customs. I don't care if you're a polka dotted neutre, if you're a good person, that's all I care about. However. As mentionned above, this was always a primarily caucasian, christian country. So for me to start wishing people "Happy Holidays" because I am Not ALLOWED to say anything else, for example, within government offices, really , really irks me. If I say, Happy Hannukah, that insults no one. But dare I say Merry Christmas...well shit, that's just wrong!!
My RCMP friend is not allowed to wear a chain with a cross as it is not a part of the uniform yet another officer may wear a turban for "religious" reasons. Hmmm...what??
Women need to be equal (I am a woman) blablabla. So because of this, my safety is at stake since the police department MUST hire a certain amount of women. Another above average male will be passed up due to a female who took a different physical exam than a male HAD to be hired to be equal.
Absolute shit.
If you have a choice between the best heart surgeon to operate on YOU, but are left to take a lesser qualified female Dr. due to quota rules, will you not scream your head off and threaten legal action??
It is what it is. It's bullshit.
And now, I am off to watch the Leafs get massacred. Why?? Why do I even hope for some type of good hockey??
Because
I
Am
Canadian-french-scottish-spanish-and oh yes. Human.
Care to discuss??

First
I have often wondered how average bloggers get noticed. Get "read".
So many come to this outlet, the internet, for answers, for a voice that is silent to be read.
I doubt that many will read. And if they do, they will most likely lurk and go about their merry way.
In here, I will ask, I will speak and I will just, be.
If you agree, if you disagree, I would love to know. I think that being ignored, being overlooked is worse than hatred. At least when you are hated, you invoke some type of sentiment. But when you are ignored, the need for acknowledgement is crushed. Do we not all long to be acknowledged? Do we not all long to have some importance in the world?
I am not mother Theresa. Nor could I ever aspire to be. I am much too needy, greedy and human. But I do wish to change the world in some way. May it be by making someone smile once, or think.
What are your aspirations?
