White Privilege
6.09.15

My life is busy. I guess it's "busy" if busy is the Latin word for crazy. I don't have time to do a lot of the things I'd like to do. So I appreciate anything that trims down the list of things I need to do.

I like to try to understand nutrition and fitness. So I like whenever I see a diet plan that advocates eating egg whites. Because I know I don't have to waste my time paying attention to it.

Same thing with BMI. If someone is recommending using BMI, I can skip over anything that idiot says. Don't have to waste my time on it.

Same thing with "White Privilege."

If you're flapping your gums about White Privilege being a thing, you are an idiot and I don't have to waste my time listening to you. (Instead I waste my time blogging about what an idiot you are.) Have you never heard of white trash? Have you ever watched an NBA game?

White Privilege my rosy red . . . .

Just read this article by John Hawkins that talks about people who whine about White Privilege and what losers they are.

I freaking love how he points out that Barack Obama is President only because he is black. Nailed it.

Barack Obama is no stranger to saying stupid things. Hey, stupid people sometimes do that. But this last week has delivered some particularly high-density stupidity. Maybe it's just the law of averages. This is the guy who said that the role of NASA was to make muslims feel good about themselves. But I honestly wonder if that clown isn't suffering from some kind of advancing mental illness.

First he said that nobody respected America when he took office, but he has made American the most respected country on earth.

Wow.

Just a reminder of the level of this pipsqueak's narcissism, you remember back in November of 2008 when he said that America had to endure a very difficult 2-1/2 more months because he was constitutionally constrained from immediately taking the reins of power. But the second he could . . . !

Wow.

Then he explained that the Military's role is to combat climate change.

Rich Lowry wrote a great piece about how climate change brings out Obama's inner Churchill.

Then Obama, who, as you recall, is an anti-Semite, figures he's the closest thing to a Jew that has ever occupied the Oval Office.

People pointing out his hatred for Jews and Israel was one of the things he was whining about that people say are "terribly unfair."

He even went so far as to compare himself to George Washington, who he claims whined about it, too. Oh, bullcrap. What a sniveling little snot. Forget George Washington, can you imagine George Bush crying like that? Or anybody outside of preschool?

What a pantywaist.

Transgender. That's gotta be Latin for ridiculous. You can't get crazier

You stand in front of a mirror naked and the mirror says that you're plainly a man. But you somehow don't "feel" like you should be a man, so you're pretty sure you're really a woman. Nature just trapped you in a male body . . . or something.

You may remember that I'm the one who had to look up "transgender." I was thinking, Wait, why is there a "T" in LBGT. I thought transgender was like transsexual. If they transed their gender don't they just want to be treated like whatever they are now? Why are they part of a special group if they're now whatever gender they wanted to be?

My simple mind couldn't conceive of . . . just . . . I guess I have no imagination. You can put a small block Chevy in a '32 Ford, or even a rice burner in a classic Mustang, but humans only come in two flavors. I was informed enough to know you could change the flavor, but not that the ice cream in the container wasn't what it said on the carton.

I know I'd heard the concept before. I'm sure at one time I even knew the term. But even back then I was like Mike Huckabee: sounds like a guy using other people's stupidity to get into a girls locker room.

Trouble is, Huckabee is running for office and I'm not.

So Huckabee says he wishes he'd have thought of that in High School, then Wolf Blitzer used it to pit two Republican candidates against each other, having Pataki comment on it.

Of course, Pataki took the bait. He said we shouldn't mock people who use our stupidity to feed their insanity . . . or . . . I guess that's me paraphrasing. But he took the bait and chided Huckabee (who, as you know, is no pal of mine).

How can you not mock that kind of insanity? See, this is why I can't run for office. In my mind there's only one way to answer. When Wolf Blitzer asks what you think of somebody saying pretending to be a girl is a good way to get into a girls' locker room, you say "Well, duh!"

But Pataki is running for office. "Omigosh! Can you believe Huckabee?! Thinking that your genitals define your gender?!!!" He said "We should give people their dignity and let them make their own decisions."

Well, I guess, that's only perverts who get their dignity and whose choices you have to show respect for. So what about the choices of the girl in the locker room who doesn't want to undress in front a guy pretending he feels like a woman?

Complete freaking morons, letting themselves be used by nut jobs.

You look like a guy.
Well, I feel like a woman.
Okay, go in that locker room.

How come I don't get to make rules for myself like that?

You did a really crappy job on that report in the meeting.
Actually, I have sincere feelings that it was a stupendous job.
Oh. Here's a big raise and a bonus.

See, a really clever commentator would take that a step further. A clever blogger would create a satire, you know, to underscore the ridiculousness of the concept. He'd make up a story about a perfectly healthy person standing in front the same mirror and thinking "But I don't 'feel' like I should be fully abled. I somehow feel like I should be missing a leg or an arm or something."

That's what a clever commentator would craft to illustrate how stupid the concept is.

Hang on, what's that? No! Holy mother of Dale Earnhardt, are you kidding me? You say that there are people who really do that? They're calling it "transabled?"

Well, if they think they should be handicapped somehow and can't quite figure out how, I'll help them out. They are insane. There you go. No need to go lopping off limps our gouging out eyes. You're brain damaged.

Happy now?

I first heard about this in a post that had a girl in a wheelchair that looked just like this. I guess she was fine, but she felt like she should be disabled. I honestly couldn't pay too much attention to it; there's only room for so much crazy in my life.

But you do have legitimate cases where people really are severely handicapped . . .
