These rants are not only the result of several personality disorders, they are an answer to the wave of posivitiy that has assaulted the internet with millions of annoying memes and quotes. Negativity and anti-social behavior have come under attack in recent years by the so-called positive thinking movement. Its time someone fought back! Yes I sometimes have negative thoughts, and yes I sometimes say negative things. Is that alright with you facist positivity police of the internet?

Plan For Your Afterlife Today!
People just don't take the afterlife seriously enough. Close to half the population of the planet at least pays lip service to the idea that after our body dies we go on to live for all eternity in heaven, hell, Valhalla, or whatever ghost world happens to be associated with their faith. I happen to believe in Dragon Ball Z's theory on the afterlife where we all become little clouds that frequent martial arts tournaments. Anyway I'm starting to notice there are some small but very noticeable cracks in this whole thing, and I'm not talking about the material reality of it I'm talking about peoples faith in it. You can tell in some of the words and phrases people use that deep down they might not believe this is true. For example when someone gets married, at least in a traditional christian wedding the vows end with the phrase "till death do you part". Ok so apparently the death of one of the two people entering into the marriage makes the vows null and void, but why? If they're going to go to heaven, or more likely hell forever and ever after they die why does death break the contract at all? If you believe in the afterlife then death isn't really doing you part its just sort of like one person moved and they're just waiting on the other to get their shit together so they can join them in their new residence in the sky...or in the fiery pits below the ground you know whichever. Another popular phrase I hear people of faith use they have no business using is "life is short." Sorry I thought we lived forever. Now I'm not just picking on the monotheists in Abrhamic religions there are other who are just as guilty. I once heard a Hindu say "yolo". If you don't know what yolo is, its dipshit speak for "you only live once". Now I had to call them on this and point out reincarnation means we live several lives and they need to get their spiritual shit together, and that's another thing if we really do get reincarnated into new beings what happens after everything dies? What happens when the sun burns out and there's no more life to come back as? I live in the United States the country most like to blow up the entire planet out of what I just think is bitterness at this point. So what happens after that? Will the nuclear fires assure that the process of reincarnation halts because there's no way for it to proceed? That's just one apocalyptic scenario. China and Russia seem to be content with the more slow planetary death of sound economic growth. So if everything has choked to death under a cloud of carbon while getting blasted by UV rays what then? See people we need to think about these things. We're talking about eternity here we gotta plan for it!
