I Want My Money Back!

I want my money back!  The venders hiked up the price on the popcorn and soda, and they’ve made a covert deal with the theater across town.  I can tell because the prices in that theater are just as high if you take into consideration the quality of the facilities and the surrounding neighborhood.  I bet I could smuggle some soda in here, but it wouldn’t be socially acceptable . . . even though everyone else realizes the swindling as well. 

I’m not enjoying the show.  The previews promised more excitement, better graphics, strong romance, and a little comedy.  The reality of the show is different.  There’s no climax, just surging anticipation and subsequent disappointment followed by more surging anticipation and more upsetting disappointment.  And another thing, I can fucking tell you the ending right now.  The main character will die alone, depressed, and disappointed.  OH! I get it! This is one of those movies you have to be fucked-up to enjoy.  This is much better.  -antiwasp

Man not capable of love: Will never see eye-to-eye with wife

Love hasn’t fully evolved in human males, yet.  We’re still evolving, and the “love trait” is there for love to form if “fitness” calls for it to form . . . but it won’t necessarily develop if fitness doesn’t call for it.  Love is for the woman.  She needs the male’s presence and loyalty during pregnancy when she’s weak and physically vulnerable, and after giving birth to provide for her as she cares for the child.  Love has fully evolved in human females. 

I live in a world that my wife could never conceive, and vice versa.  I can’t appreciate the feelings she has, and she can’t understand my natural urges.  She doesn’t see this.  She thinks I’m able to understand her, to see the world through her eyes, but I can’t.  I don’t have her emotional filters.  I’m not capable.  The wife and I will never be on the same level.  -antiwasp

Cowardice and Greener Grasses

Why can’t I scrap my worldly possessions, break my relational ties, and set off on foot around the globe to discover god, myself, and internal peace?  No one could stop me if I decided I wanted to break camp.  So I must be the one standing in the way of myself.  Why would I do that when nothing sounds better than chucking my stresses?  Cowardice. 

I fear disappointing others.  I fear the unknown.  I fear that I won’t like me once I find me, or that there isn’t a god to discover, or that internal peace is really just loneliness.  I fear jumping for a dream because I might fall off the ledge.  What if the un-materialistic life is not what I want once I get it?  What if I have to crawl back to my relations to beg for a small part of my life back?  Maybe we’re brainwashed by that “grass is always greener” saying to keep us from doing what we really want to do.  That fucking phrase halts dreams.   -antiwasp
