In A Quandry

Can someone please explain men to me? Right now I have 2 guys in my life (family excluded) who I absolutely adore. The rest of the male species can go fuck themselves. I’m not going to go into an elaborate explanation of what prompted this little epiphany. Suffice it to stay that men are stupid. They are reactionary. They can escalate a heated discussion into something even uglier. I’m not saying women are much better. We are the fuel that feeds these rages. I know that. I’m not stupid and I’m certainly not innocent or blameless. Mainly I’m just disappointed. I often try to convince myself that we live in a civilized society and on the surface maybe we do. But we don’t. Not really. Underneath it all, those dark, primal urges lie in wait and eventually they always rear their ugly heads. It’s unavoidable. Confrontation is in our nature. We strike out in anger and the people that always get hurt are the ones closest to us; the ones in our direct line of fire. It’s not fair. It’s not right. But I don’t think it’s going to change… Sorry, just needed to do some vague ranting today. Let some demons out. Go see “Sin City” this weekend. It’s all about violence and primal urges. It should be a hell of a ride... If you want to read something funny, go check out Google's April Fools Day joke.
