Goddamn I'm tired of this nomination and election bullshit. Fuck em all. The real problem is neither side fully respects the constitution. All they want to do is limit it and work around it to suit their own agenda. The republicans are religious nutfuck wackos that want to ram their beliefs down everyone's throats, protecting religious privilege, trying to do everything possible to block women's access to abortions and their right to do what they want with their own bodies. All the democrats want to do is scream about guns and refuse to believe any amount of laws is enough. They want to wipe their asses with the 2nd amendment. For this reason, I hope Trump wins. Either way, I think we're screwed because politicians from top to bottom won't stop squabbling over things that they shouldn't have any control over in the first place, writing laws that are outright unconstitutional and take years to even be properly challenged at the supreme court, and pushing their own beliefs and agendas over freedom, logic, and reason. How bout, you know, balancing the budget, infrastructure, etc instead of running the country into the ground while you disrespect the constitution all day long?
Then all these idiots come out of the woodwork every 4 years rallying and voting on who gets to run in the first place. The 2 party system is what's completely fucking us over. Nobody else can get a fair chance. The same assholes campaigning for these fools are the dumb motherfuckers who run out and vote straight down party lines every couple years, which puts the same bastards in congress etc every goddamn election. Then people wonder why nothing changes. Maybe because the whole country is run by a bunch of miserable old grey haired bastards on their 12th terms who couldn't agree on the color of shit, only care about their religious or anti-gun agendas, and could give a fuck less about the constitution, freedom, or the little people doing all the fucking work in this country.
Why do people have to pick and choose who gets to run and vote twice? Why can't more candidates run? Why can't the fucking parties even agree on who should run without essentially holding a pretend election before the fucking real one!? Why are people stupid enough to think their vote means jack shit in the primaries anyway? The fucking delegates/superdelegates do whatever the fuck they want in the end anyway. It's not decided by your votes, it's decided by theirs, which is fuckin stupid. Hell, Trump's own party hates him. If that's not a good reason to vote for him, I don't know what is. The whole thing is fucking sideways anyway. The true patriots never get to run. It's only the corporate dog and pony show. The media denies exposure to better candidates that aren't far enough right or left, libertarian, etc.

Fuck the Internet - TrueAssholes Edition
The following is based on a true story. The names have been changed to protect the assholes...or to avoid possible liability issues which is fucking stupid. Cue the Law and Order TV theme I was too lazy to embed.
I was a member of a site that tracks gaming stats. They even have an Xbox One app. However, the site is run by a bunch of unprofessional pricks that refuse to admit when they're wrong, let their buddies do whatever they want, and block you from tracking for no reason whatsoever. Yes, it's an Xbox app, and they can block you from using it for no fucking reason that has anything to do with your actual stats or tracking them. Arguably, they fit in perfectly with Microsoft's current enforcement assholes who can ban you from accessing XBL entirely, including digital content you fucking paid for, just because people don't approve of your gamertag, bio, or the way you communicate.
Looking for specifics? Aye! Story time, mates! Let's call the site TrueAssholes. The owner actually had the ego to call himself TrueAsshole. I used to get warned and banned from the forums, sometimes without any notification whatsoever indicating why or for how long. Most times, I heard some shit about how they want it PG-13 posting. First off, there aren't any 13 year olds on there with half a million fucking gamerscore unless they modded the shit. Second, the site owner's drinking buddy, SpitCup, gets to use FUCK 5 times in one post and that's bloody marvelous. He acts like just as much of an asshole as I do, but he's immune to rules. I've heard stories that when he first became staff he deleted like 50 users that annoyed him, but he's still staff.
Other people get away with shit too. The hammer only comes down on the people the staff doesn't like or consider insignificant. One guy was posting nasty shit about my friend's wife, but he's still allowed on the fucking site. Not only that, but a staffer named CockKickNinJackOff essentially threatened my friend with site removal over the incident, which he wasn't even a fucking part of. Oh. did he have to moderate his friend because he was out of line? Poor baby.
Another thing I noticed is that anytime someone starts a thread about getting a group together for this game or that game, it's immediately shutdown directing people to use the site's built-in session features, usually by SpitCup, but I found one asshole who's above that treatment as well. NecrophiliacApe has been allowed to keep a complete bullshit thread running for like a year now for "helping" people complete Halo MCC on LASO. The jackass has a complete bullshit list of hoops to jump through if you even want an invite from him, and people have to post some nonsensical shit to prove they read his fucking terms of service. This could easily be done through the site's session feature using the option to allow users to apply for the session and asking them to type stupid shit in the form. However, any suggestion of doing this is met with your post being deleted.
Another prime example of the staff being pricks is the competition they hold all year. It's technically only hosted by them, but everything about it is handled by the site. A friend was telling me that he came in 2nd one year because he was unable to login to the site to request an update of his stats, and the staff flat out refused to force a scan on him when his teammates asked. This is something we all know the staff can do. I don't know who won that year, but I bet they're friends with the staff. Funny how any suggestion of automatically forcing a scan on everyone in the competition when each period ends, even if only the final few months when it's like 50 teams, is met with nothing but lame excuses. They talk big about keeping things fair, but a little thing that would definitely make things more fair is too much work.
The past week or so has been particularly entertaining. You may have seen one of the highlights in a prior blog post. First, I was banned from the forums yet again. This time it was because of an over-sensitive staffer I hadn't dealt with before, but he instantly proved he was an asshole. The main post that did the job was something like "I express myself in my own way. Not my fault if people are too stupid or too fucking sensitive to see my point." btw, using one instance of the word FUCK is actually allowed in a PG-13 movie, so by their terms, I should've been fine using it once per post. Technically I didn't attack or flame anyone directly in that post either nor the comment I made on a boosting session around the same time. I told the idiot who created the session that he flooded my email with sessions that should've been marked private if they're only for his friends, and the game servers weren't working anyway. I said "Nice fucking job." I didn't call him an asshole. At least, I don't think I did. That was like 2 weeks ago. So I was removed from the forums. Fine. Way to prove my original point that people are too fucking sensitive.
It didn't end there though. This staff, BitchPotty crossed a line. He removed my status claiming it was a "callout." Yet, I wasn't calling out anyone, and it wasn't about a registered member of the site. I said if anyone runs into this guy on Xbox, "don't help the bastard." Yet, the 2nd staffer I contacted tried to come up with a lame excuse to back up his buddy. He claimed they have to remove anything "potentially liable." I didn't call his mother fat or accuse him of fucking farm animals. Is saying not to vote for Trump (with no reason attached) a fucking "callout" too? BULLSHIT.
Obviously, this pisses me off, and I blogged about it. Then I set my status to say "Someone should inform the genius running the competition that he would have a lot less stupid questions to deal with and teams to keep posting stats, bonuses etc, for manually every week if he'd actually make the competition you know COMPETITIVE instead of trying to include all the casuals." Again, not really a callout. I merely suggested someone forward my opinion to the asshole, since I can't post and he ignores anything I say anyway because it offends his delicate sense of etiquette. Every time anyone suggests any changes to the competition, the fucking asshole moans about how much work it is to deal with all the idiots asking questions about things, getting everyone's stats posted, bonuses verified, etc. Well, if he didn't try to include all the useless fucks who barely score, he'd have a lot less n00bs to deal with, wouldn't he?
Now, the staff could've admitted they were wrong, muted me to keep me from saying anything else on site, or just left me the fuck alone. They chose option D, being dickheads and completely removing my fucking account. I got no email from the chickenshit who did it even trying to justify it. Nothing. This, from a site that has a legitimate app on Xbox One, which they just blocked my access to by removing me from the site. Real fucking professional.
Took about 6 months to get an answer, and they didn't even explain the logic in turning down my offer of PAYING $60/year (Pro Membership) to scan me while completely muted on the site.

Fuck the Election
Am I the only one tired of this bullshit? These assholes spend millions of fuckin dollars trying to get people to vote for them, and nothing ever changes anyway. You're choosing between 2 piles of shit. Actually, it's currently about 6 piles of shit because we're still doing "primaries." This is another completely idiotic thing. You need to go vote for the person you want before you can vote for them. HUH? Voting for the asshole once isn't enough? Apparently, not. Why don't they all just run and be done with it? Nope, we have to narrow it down to 2 of these idiots. Then, in order to vote, you have to be "registered." A drivers license or SS card should be all the fucking registration you need. Fuck registering for something most people only bother to do every 4 years anyway. What kind of asshole came up with that shit?
Then you essentially have to choose a side. Nobody looks at the candidates for what they are. It's either Republican or Democrat. Where's the "I think Washington is drowning in a sea of it's own bullshit" option? Fuck both parties. The Democrats refuse to leave the 2nd amendment the fuck alone. They'll forever fuck over gun owners. The Republicans are so preachy and faith driven they should be running for pope, not president. Stop trying to ram your fucking beliefs down everyone's throats, and respect the separation of church and state. That means your fucking 10 commandments and other religious shit doesn't belong on government property, in government institutions, etc. and laws should be based on logic and fucking reason, not your anti-freedom, anti-abortion, anti-homo agenda. That also means no fucking exemptions for bullshit beliefs. The law should apply to everyone or nobody at all. No excuses. No exemptions. Fuck your religion.
Why the fuck are liquor store owners still not allowed to CHOOSE to be open on Sunday morning or open a store/bar within a certain distance a church? Fucking bible thumpers. Why is prostitution illegal? Bible thumpers. Like George Carlin always said, "Selling is legal. Fucking is legal. Why isn't selling fucking legal?" It really is that simple. A woman should have a right to do what she wants with her own body, including selling fucking access.
How do so many unreasonable, illogical, and unconstitutional laws get passed? Because nobody is impartial or logical about it, and they don't have to go through any scrutiny. They just get all their cronies to vote their shit in no matter how ridiculous it is. Then people have to fight it to the supreme court to get rid of it. Now there's an open seat on there and everyone is fighting over who's going to get it. It's not about the person, it's about what party the represent. Will they fuck over gun owners or atheists? Religious privilege in this country needs to fucking stop, and the 2nd amendment needs to stop being restricted and shit on.
Clint Eastwood should've run instead of just writing bullshit war movies the past 10 years. Can you imagine Dirty Harry as president? Hell yeah. Of course, then everyone acts like it's so important who's in the oval office. That idiot in that office can only do so much while the same fucking assholes sit in congress, senate, etc term after term because stupid motherfuckers keep voting them back in.
So go vote. Go to the stupid rallies. I'll sit here and play Xbox, and you all can vote in the next group of assholes.
