I've always been amazed and disgusted at how ignorant people are. Yesterday at work my co-workers were chattering on about how Paris Hilton 'punked' John McCain. I have heard of this video, however I refuse to waste the time to see it. Although it was only a small incident, the entrance of one of the worlds stupidest party slut into the politics is disturbing to me.
'Yeah" said one of my coworkers "But John McCain shouldn't have talked smack." John McCain was a POW and has the Silver Star, purple heart and several other commendations for valor. Paris Hilton's claim to fame is a TV show in which they make a mockery of the middle class and a video in which she traipses around breaking shit while she's drunk and screwing some guy.
'So what about Russia?' Asks another "Think we're going to war?"
"Oh my God! Is there going to be a draft? I'm going to Canada" says yet another. The fact that I did not leap over my desk, grab him by his throat and bash his head in is a miracle. It should be noted that this individual is homosexual and has an incredibly, god awful 'gay accent'.
Instead of reacting with a spate of primal violence, I suggested that he not borrow any student loans. And move somewhere where his orientation isn't tolerated. "Besides' I said "I don't think you have to worry about being drafted."
"OK that was a direct insult, and I will be reporting it." So he goes off to the office and talks to the manager who calls me into his office and warns me to be a little more careful. Then.... the jackass who made such a big deal about how I insulted him.... asked me for a ride home. What will today at work bring me???
And no, I told that scrub to walk.
