An interesting observation I saw.

"Why is a 15 year old allowed to be tried as an adult for a crime but is not considered adult enough to consent to sexual activity?"

If we're to consider that age too young to consent as an adult, than why allow them any of the rights or restrictions an adult is given? Can you punish a minor as an adult if the crime they commit is centered around their inability to consent as one?

Furthermore. . .

"Why can children of all ages be forced into paying sales tax, but gain no representation/voting rights from their taxation?"

An Observation or two

Why is it acceptable to call someone a "dick" or a "cock" but calling someone a "cunt" or "vagina" or "pussy" is a sin against man? I'm all for reclaiming the three latter, in a sense, but I smell a double standard.

Observation two:: The Tron soundtrack was made for playing Global Agenda.

Thought I'd end it on a light note.

Inspired.

Decided to try blogging again, only instead of writing useless blathering-ons that no one cares about, I'd share art or quotes I stumbled upon that I find interesting. Maybe other people will find them interesting too. Eventually maybe I'll throw in my own stuff, or give it some theme. Until then, who gives a fuck?

So today is a collection of Zappa quotes, because who doesn't love Zappa? Guy was a genius.

"The whole foundation of Christianity is based on the idea that
intellectualism is the work of the Devil. Remember the apple on the tree?
Okay, it was the Tree of Knowledge. "You eat this apple, you're going to be
as smart as God. We can't have that."
-- Frank Zappa

"So, when Adam and Eve were in the Garden of Eden, if you go for all these
fairy tales, that "evil" woman convinced the man to eat the apple, but the
apple came from the Tree of Knowledge. And the punishment that was then
handed down, the woman gets to bleed and the guy's got to go to work, is the
result of a man desiring, because his woman suggested that it would be a
good idea, that he get all the knowledge that was supposedly the property
and domain of God. So, that right away sets up Christianity as an
anti-intellectual religion. You never want to be that smart. If you're a
woman, it's going to be running down your leg, and if you're a guy, you're
going to be in the salt mines for the rest of your life. So, just be a dumb
fuck and you'll all go to heaven. That's the subtext of Christianity."
-- Frank Zappa

"There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do
something we'd all love one another."
-- Frank Zappa, quoted from Cyber Nation's quotations section
