money saving rescue!

Ways to save money.

1) Have a goal in mind.

If you’re planning to saving money, you have to think about what it is you’re saving it for. What exactly are your goals you wish to do or get? Make a list of things you would want to do and starting saving them up.

2) Think about why you want to achieve that goal.

The troublesome thing people do is spending money just because something looks good to have or something else. Never buy something unless it’s worth buying. Let’s say you want to work out and you want exercise equipment. You see something that looks benefitting to you. Think it over and if it’s want you want, then make that your goal. Let’s say you have a love for Japan and you want to travel there. Think about what it is you wanted to do there, do some research and figure out the costs for everything you need for the flight, someplace to stay, food to eat and possibly souvenirs. I’ve been told this wise advice; think before you act. So take that advice, think before you act. I can’t tell you how many times I didn’t think before I acted and that was a major mistake. I looked at all of the things I’ve owned and regretted buying most of it.

3) Got financial problems? Work on that first, then fun.

Remember how it is when your parents say, “No tv unless you did your homework?” Well, this is the same, take care of your problems before anything else. The troublesome thing people do is try to handle too much while trying to have fun. Think before you act.

4) Don’t drink, smoke or do drugs.

Yes I know, you’ve heard it all before and that pisses you off. But here’s the thing, they are expensive and they will keep your money flowing a lot slower. Think before you act.

5) Don’t be a junkie.

No not the drug junkie (Although you shouldn’t do drugs either), I’m talking video game junkie, movie junkie and such. It’s fine to like video games, movies, books and such. But you got to start using your head. The biggest mistake I made was that I was constantly buying video games, books, and movies. It kept me from making money and often times, they were a waste. Sure there’s some games I have that was excellent and some movies are excellent as well. Hell, I even tried to collect all the series of books. But you got to figure, would it really be worth it? I’m not sure if it would have been worth it if I start buying world of warcraft, so I didn’t.

6) Be sure to make a list and write things down.

Let’s say you have a job that pays you 700 per month. I know, I know, that sucks ass. But you have to look at it from this point of view, it’s better to be realistic and figure out how to do things rather than live in la-la land.

If you’re going to live in an apartment, I would suggest not just the cheapest apartment, but apartment with free utility. Paying electric bills is a nightmare. I lived in a tiny apartment that is not cheap only because it was the only cheap apartment nearby. I didn’t have free utility and it cost me over 300 dollars in utility for few months. I was ballistic, outrage, and I deeply hated the electric companies. So make sure you figure out the digits before you take an apartment.

You’re going to need to eat. One of my biggest pet peeve is buying food you are not going to eat and would eventually throw away. Never, ever buy food unless you’re going to eat it. I’ve seen people’s refrigerator and half of the food is going bad. Buy what you will eat otherwise you’re just wasting money. Food costs money and they ain’t cheap! Go cheap, buy what you want to eat. My advice is go to different stores, match up prices of the food item, get the cheapest one.

You’re going to need cleaning supplies and personal supplies. My advice is this, don’t go for the best or something that looks cool. Just get what is necessary.

I don’t know about you, but I would never buy a car. Cars are a major money suckers. They are extremely expensive, they need constant repairs and they need gas all the time. Get a ride, buy a bike, take a taxi or a bus fare. This isn’t to say you can’t buy a car, this is to say that buying the car right away would just hurt your finances. Although, there is some vehicles that runs on electric and there’s the human car where you’re the energy to the car and it can save you a bunch. They may not be cheap, but if you’re interested, start saving up.

Stay away from the fast food joint. I know, even I go there because they’re tempting and I get careless. Go a little as possible but eat at home. Trust me when I say this, that $1 whopper would be worth 8 hamburgers if you buy them at the store.

As for clothes, don’t buy stuff you think it’s cool, buy what you need. I noticed that people binge on clothes and it starts piling everywhere in the house or the apartment. Never do that. Buy what is necessary.
For electronic equipment, books, games, movies and fun stuff there is, buy sparingly and be sure if this is what you really need.

Then for the 700 dollars per month, you may be spending 200 dollars on the stuff, 400 per month on the rent. That’ll be $100 left. Yes I know, that’s outrageous. This is important; know your math, figure out how you can earn a lot more. That is the point of this. Nothing is easy.

7) Go to school.

If you go through college or community college, you may be able to find a job that pays a lot more than you get with the crappy job you have now. Stick with it. My advice is this, never go working in a job where the hours are ever-changing. It makes it harder to go to school and find a second job.

8) Get a second job.

That can be an effective way to save money. My advice would be this; one job for important things, another would be for the goals.

9) Make an emergency money plan.

The idea is to try saving up money, putting it safely away for any emergency you might have. Keep saving up on it.

10) DON’T HAVE KIDS!!

Don’t start going out with someone and go, “Let’s get married and have a bunch of kids.” That is a recipe for disaster! You’re not going to earn a lot of money this way. Wedding costs a lot of money, divorce costs a lot of money, child support costs a lot of money, child rearing costs even more money! Think before you act.

Don’t misunderstand me, I’m not saying you shouldn’t have kids or get married, I’m saying you shouldn’t rush headlong into marriage and kids. Plan things out, figure out the digits and how you can manage them. They’re too expensive, so think before you act.

Why i hate Arizona

1) The heat is dry and the rain hardly ever shows up to cool the heat down. It can get 120 degrees high or more in August, just over hundred in June or July. That is enough to fry eggs on the sidewalk and to roast your turkey on the street. It'll be like walking in the oven that is turned on 450 degrees. It's difficult to enjoy walking outside during the summer and you need to bring in some shades like umbrellas or hats. It can be difficult to breathe here when it's at its hottest. Every time I come back inside some building, i felt like i was cooked.

2) Construction workers are assholes because they closed off countless of lanes, sidewalks and streets underneath the highway. They don't just cut it off, they leave it like that for as long as i can remember. They never work on one site and finish it quickly, they work on one site, go to the next, take a week or two off and then return to a different site leaving everything undone for a very long ass time.

3) Utility bills are beyond outrageous! I had to pay over 300 dollars on the utility alone just for living in a tiny studio apartment. I wanted to shove a spiked bat up those assholes' ass!

4) In Arizona, you can just forget being rich! You can never have a job that pays well. Even if you manage to get a good pay, employers will just look for a way to fire your ass just so that they don't have to pay you. Apartment rents are insane and everything is so damn expensive here. This state is so not worth living in.

5) It's a desert that hardly has any decent cities around and when there are towns or cities, they're small and are far apart from each other.

6) Dust storm, nuff said.

7) Inconsiderate police officers who also kills people who poses a insignificant threat to them.

8) From where i am now, there's a bus stop three miles away, no apartments saved one but that is damn near expensive and hardly any decent job opportunities.

how to be a crazy animal rights activist

(This is not for real, i'm just picking on the animal rights activists)

step one

Blindly love an animal without question and treat them like they're the most marvelous creatures that deserves to be treated like Gods.

Step two

Blindly hate anyone who doesn't love animals as you do like those who eats meat, those who keeps pets, those who hunts, whales or fishes, and those who uses animals in research to study and to find cures for diseases.

step three

Be sure to wish humanity dead because humanity is the gloom and doom while the animals are all harmless loving creatures that just wants to play all day. Also, animals are here first, humans came here in space ships from planet Dong.

Step four

Be sure to really love your animals to the point that you want to have sex with them.

Step five

Bomb research labs and animal shelters, because animals deserves to be free in the streets.

Step six

Be a Vegan, because eating anything that comes from animals is evil.

Step seven

Build animal shrines and start worshipping them and go eat human babies and sacrifice virgin girls onto the alters to worship the humpbacks and sperm whales.

Step eight

Be sure to defend all the animals there is because they're all harmless, sweet, defenseless little animals. Because only humans would eat the animals.

Step nine

Be a hypocrite.

Circumcision is repulsive.

Circumcision is repulsive.

I personally hate circumcision 100% and find it to be unnecessary, sickening, retarded and pointless. I do not understand why some people would think that circumcision is a good thing.

“Oh I had my dick cut and I don’t remember any pain.” “I like cut dicks, foreskins are repulsive, don’t keep that nasty looking thing!” “My religion teaches us that it’s needed. It’s part of the tradition.”

Just because you don’t remember being in pain, does not make it alright. What if the tradition was to slap you across the face hard because your parents thinks that it’ll rattle demons out of you so that they won’t make you sin and if you cry, they may think it’ll keep the demons away as well, would you accept that even if you won’t remember it? It would make any rational person faint at the sight of that form of abuse and call it a tradition.

Just because someone’s traditional beliefs was that babies should be circumcised doesn’t mean that we should accept it or impose it onto others. It’s sad that people try to make up reasons for circumcisions and yet fail at providing reasonable evidence on the contrary.

“Women likes it better that way, foreskins are disgusting, it looks better cut.”

Personal likes and dislikes are in no way a reasonable excuse to cut children’s dick. What if someone thinks tattooing a symbol on an infant thinking it’ll protect them from being possessed by demons and it looks sexy? Sorry, but that’s just plain stupid.

“It was to stop them from masturbating.”

Oh no, the … SIN! (Dramatic chord from monty python) seriously, that is the most stupidest thing ever to circumcise your child. What does it matter to you if he jerks off? He’ll still jerk off even if he’s circumcised. What, are you going to put your hand down his drawers and demand him never to do as he pleases with his own body? What is wrong with loving our own body? Because some imaginary sky daddy would get pissed? If there is a God, he can suck my cock for all I care, I’m not going to allow anyone to have any control over my own body. Especially not by some character written on a piece of paper.

“It has medical benefits.”

So foreskins attracts diseases like moths to a flame right? Wrong! Whether you’re circumcised or not, you will still get diseases no matter what. Your brain can get cancer, your heart can get cancer, your lungs can get cancer and you don’t see anyone taking them out. As long as we take care of ourselves, we’ll be more likely to be healthy than not.

“I worry that he’ll get teased.”

The only thing Johnny is going to be teased about between his legs is how small it looks, not that it’s circumcised or not. I’ve never seen any kids going, “Ha, ha he’s got a cut dick, he’s got a cut dick,” or “His dick’s not cut, his dick’s not cut.” Never happened. I know this to be true because I’ve been in the locker rooms a lot when in school. No matter what, kids will get teased for countless of things and there is nothing you can do to prevent it initiatively.

“I want him to look like his daddy.”

No rational human being would ever think that this idea is at all good. There is not a single reason for boys to look like their daddy. I have never met a single boy who ever said, “How come I don’t look like my dad?” No child gives a fuck that they don’t look like their dad, it’s not even necessary. You never hear a talk show host going, “Oh the boy is concerned that he looks nothing like his father because he has an uncircumcised penis while his father does.” Sorry, never happens.

“I heard that it’s sanitary.”

And I heard that if you rub chicken’s blood on you, it’ll cure the leprosy right up. Oh, what? It’s bullshit? Oh well. The point is, it’s not that difficult to clean your dick and the boy will learn on his own how to clean it. What are you so afraid of? That he’ll have total control of his own body and you rather he be your little puppet? I’ve never been told to keep it clean, but I decided to clean it all on my own and have no problems whatsoever.

“Women likes cut dicks.”

Some women do, some don’t, but just because someone likes something, doesn’t mean that you should do it. Some women likes bondage, does that mean we have to do sex bondage? No! It’s just a matter of personal interest. When it comes down to the major interest in a community, people would likely to think this is of the norm. Of course women are going to like cut dicks because circumcision is the norm. But keep in mind that just because they like it doesn’t mean that they should do circumcise the babies. When are we ever going to start realizing that your own personal interest is your own personal interest and not everyone has to adopt the interest of the majority just because they like it?

“I have a son who circumcised and he doesn’t have any problem being circumcised.”

If I have been circumcised, I too would think there wasn’t any problem with it. However, note that I didn’t say I would have researched it beforehand. If I was circumcised and did my research, I would have been pissed. I’m not sure if the sons who thought it was perfectly fine have done any research, but many men are not pleased with being cut at birth against their own will.

“It’s in the baby’s best interests.”

Ah yes, just like slapping the infant was in the baby’s best interest because you want it to be free of some imaginary demons. I know what’s in the baby’s best interest and it doesn’t involve circumcision! In no way does circumcision sound like something babies need. Also, note that there are botched circumcisions and this one girl found out that she is actually a boy whose circumcision went wrong. Start telling her/him that it was in their best interest.

“Who are you to decide what others should do with their children?”

So if a parent abuses a baby or neglects them medical help because they think praying will cure them, we should just let them? Keep in mind that I’m not trying to say that the parents are abusive or cruel people, they’re good people thinking about what’s best for their child. It’s just that they hadn’t realized that there isn’t a logical reason for circumcision.

Overall, circumcised dicks and uncircumcised dicks are mostly the same in every way, minus one without the foreskin. Both can get diseases, both are still enjoyable during sex, both men can still masturbate, people still find them attractive, and it is still easy to clean anyway. So circumcision has no special benefits that a uncircumcised penis doesn’t have, minus losing thousands of nerve endings in the foreskin.

people who hates humanity are stupid.

Human beings are not all emotionless, merciless evil beings or some bullshit. Each and every human being are entirely different. Some are good, some are mean, some are neutral, some are antisocial, and so on and so forth.

Each person plays their own role they make in life, no one is the same. No two catholics are the same, no two black people are the same, no two conservatives are the same, no two Jews are the same, no two men are the same, no two gays are the same, no two disabled people are the same, no one is the same.

Yes, there are histories of bloodshed and deaths done by human beings for centuries, but they shouldn't be a reason to hate humanity. It is to be observed and realized just how bad it was. Take a good look outside today and you'll see that it's less violent than it was centuries before. Humanity shouldn't be hated just because someone decided to create a holocaust or to force children to swallow cyanides in Jonestown. What should be done is to realize why it is wrong and that we shouldn't follow in their footsteps. Which is part of the reason why history is being taught.

Another good reason why humanity shouldn't be hated; humans are animals, driven to eat meat as well as eat vegetation. There are animals that eat meat just as well, but humans are the only ones the "Haters of humanity" looks at.

Whale Wars and why i think it's a joke.

First off, i'm not pro-whaling nor am i against whaling. I just simply do not care about the whales or any other animals. Don't get me wrong, i like animals, but not enough to go, "Oh my god, you humans are evil animal nazis! F YOU!" or something like that. Personally, I have no problem with people choosing to hunt, fish or to do animal research. it's fine with me, i just don't get what the problem is. All I heard was these arguments like "These animals feel pain" or "They're not ours to eat" or "We're cruel and merciless monsters that slaughters innocent and defenseless creatures" or "Humans must die off because the world would be a better place without them." or "These animals are smarter than humans." or "The whales have been here longer than humans." All of those are ridiculous and i'm going to pick those arguments off one by one.

"These animals feel pain."

Of course they feel pain. Animals, including humans, have a thing called a nervous system which connects to the brain, transmitting signals like pain, pleasure, and such. Just because animals feel pain doesn't excuse the need to feed to survive. It's not only humans who eats animals, other animals of many sorts eats animals just as well. Funny thing is, you never seen anyone going up to a lion saying, "Mr. Lion, that was mean! You shouldn't have murdered mrs. Antelope." or the news caster asking the praying mantis why she killed her mate. And yet, we're the ones who brings death and destruction and all the animals are just happily prancing around as the sun smiles and the rainbows dropping skittles. The lions were lying down with the lambs and wolves were playing pattie cakes with the sheep.

"They're not ours to eat."

Yes they are. It's simply the way we are, we eat meat. We're omnivores (A creature that eats meat and plants), not herbivores (A creature that eats only plants). Let's run a little thought experiment; let's say that there is this one world where humans do not exist and another where humans do exist. Let's have one Deer, the same deer on each world, and one human kills it and eats it. Would the deer in the other world live on and die of old age? Probably not because there are still predators that considers that deer food. So what is the point of all this? It means that no matter what, there are always going to be carnivores (A creature that eats only meat) and omnivores regardless whether or not humans exists. There always will be animals getting eaten and that is just the way the world is. Now imagine that nobody eats meat in the world. That would include the viruses and bacterias, so the animals will not rot if they die. So what happens to all the animals that die? Talk about having a waste of space and the bodies would just keep piling up one after another.

"We're the cruel and merciless monsters that slaughters the innocent and defenseless creatures."

There are actually worse animals than humans when it comes to killing for meat. For instance, a wasp would lay its eggs on the living caterpillar and when hatches, it eats the caterpillar. Male lions that takes over a new pride, kills off baby cubs and procreates with the lionesses so they can have its baby cubs instead. Some animals resorts to cannibalism, some eats you from the inside, some animals eats babies and some would eat many creatures at once (Anteaters and whales for instance). Nature is cruel, humans are just omnivores. Sure we do horrific things to animals but we also do horrific things to each other and to ourselves. Keep in mind that many animals in the whole animal kingdom are just as cruel and merciless, not innocent or defenseless. As for considering animals that are defenseless and innocent, that is your perception, not theirs. We may think they're innocent and defenseless, we may be wanting to protect them, but they are just animals. Animals will die whether they get eaten or not.

"The world would be better off without humans."

Now that is just plain sad. Blame the humans, but don't blame the lions or alligaters because the humans are the ones who are our only concern. That is just plain sad. I do not believe that the world would be better or worse with us here. That is just being thick and hateful. Just because we kill for research, food, self defense or whatever, doesn't mean that we're bad people. There are animals who are worse than humans, but you would never see people getting angry at them. Why is that? Oh I think I know; it's because they just hate themselves. Yeah, bad evil humans, why do you do what you do? Give me a break.

"Animals are smarter than humans."

Oh, have they established an education system? Have they have moral principles like we do? Do they think and rationalize like we do? No they do not, they're just dumb animals living on instinct.

"These whales have been here longer than we do."

Personally, i couldn't give rats ass about how long an animal has been around, they're still going to be food one way or another. I don't know why some people would use that argument as a reason not to hunt animals? Oh I know! It's because they hate humans!

Now, as for the Whale wars show, i personally feel that the Sea Shepperd are nothing but a joke. They assault, harass and tried to enforce a law they have no authority to use! It's one thing to feel concern for animals, but to use terrorism to get what you want is a whole different story. Yes you heard me, i said terrorism! It's terrorism to be boarding illegally on one's vessel, to be throwing acid on their ship and to ram them!

When the Japanese threw flash bombs and tear gas at them, the Crew on Sea Shepperd were going off with, "They're attacking us, they're attacking us!" I'm like, hell, you attacked them first! That was self defense! And of course this Captain claimed he was shot by the Japanese. Bullshit. He was not shot and how do i know this? No bullet wound, no bullet holes on the ship, no blood from the Captain's chest and he isn't on the ground. He simply pressed his pin into his chest while getting excited over throwing acid bombs onto the Whaler's ship which pricked him. I cannot believe he actually said that he was shot. It was just to get sympathy and it was a bull face lie!
