			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1>This just in, the Boston Bruins are the 2010 &#8211; 2011 Stanley Cup Champions.  But is anyone even talking about who won the Cup right now?  No, instead we&#8217;re to busy talking about a handful of idiots who decided it&#8217;s a good idea to trash the same city they live in.</h1>
<p>I&#8217;ve made no beans about my life and I&#8217;ve had no secret that I don&#8217;t overly care to push out 26 babies with a female who got duped because of how I feel about today&#8217;s society and where we are headed as a species. A fair warning that this may be to &#8220;deep&#8221; for some people but after witnessing a bunch of people destroy a beautiful city after a hockey game just confirms my opinion that we as a society are headed straight down the shitter.  If you think I&#8217;m crazy&#8230;well then you&#8217;re crazy for not seeing the truth.</p>
<h2>Overpopulation</h2>
<p><em>It took the human population thousands of years to reach 1 billion in 1804.  However, it took only 123 years for us to double to 2 billion by 1927. The population hit 4 billion in 1974 (only 47 years), and if we continue at our current rate, the human population will reach 8 billion in 2028. Doubling from our present count of 6.8 billion to 13.6 billion will have a much greater impact than our last couple doublings combined.</p>
<p>Overpopulation isn&#8217;t just population density (amount of people per landmass). Overpopulation applies much more so to the number of people in an area exceeding the resources and the carrying capacity of the environment necessary to sustain human activities. </p>
<p>Overpopulation is when the number of people can not be permanently maintained without depleting resources and without degrading the environment and the people&#8217;s standard of living. Because we are rapidly using up resources around the world, virtually all nations are overpopulated. This applies even more so to the rich nations. As we use up the resources, the earth&#8217;s carrying capacity continues to decrease.</em></p>
<p>You compound the fact of overpopulation with the amount of idiots reproducing and you have a recipe for disaster.  Similar to something to what happened tonight.  </p>
<p>When will it stop?</p>
<p>Today more then ever life is pretty spectacular for most.  Life is easy.  Life is lazy.  Cell phones, High Def TV&#8217;s, the internet, social media etc.  Technology has progressed our lifestyle so well that we should be almost beginning to live in a golden age.  Instead what do we do?  We abuse our privileges.  We get lazy, we get fat, we get drunk, we argue, we fight, it goes on and on.</p>
<p>Tonight just reassured my opinion of people.  I will be the first to stand up and congratulate the job my parents have done, I would never have been apart of anything so ridiculous tonight in Vancouver.  Yet why are there so many people that are?  <em>Tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding</em> was a line from the Idiots are Taking Over From NOFX&#8230;a song about&#8230;well idiots and the degradation of society.  Our technology grows so fast and we have so many brilliant people today in the world doing some wonderful things but while there is such prosperity it seems to multiply twice as bad the other way. Tonight I watched a city destroy itself for no reason, I seen people trash businesses, other peoples property, hurt the same people that were cheering with them hours earlier, and for what reason?  Because it&#8217;s supposed to be cool?</p>
<p>No, it&#8217;s not cool.  It&#8217;s idiotic and everyone who thinks its cool is an idiot.  You just destroyed the same city you live in, embarrassed your friends, and made your supposed team and city look foolish.  Bravo!</p>
<p>While Im disappointed in the city of Vancouver and am referencing everything that happened tonight it&#8217;s just a long line of crap that seems to happen somewhere every other day.  Even a city as small as Grande Prairie suffers the same shit on a much smaller level.  Fights, stabbings, vandalism etc. happen throughout the city on a regular basis.  </p>
<p>And of course we have the endless stories of cheating, divorce, poverty, obesity, failing academics, drugs, booze, etc. </p>
<p>Tell me, as a species is this how we&#8217;re supposed to act?  Is this how we&#8217;re supposed to save ourselves from eventual extinction?  Does anyone not think that if the world was fully at peace such things like starvation, aids, cancer, and what not couldn&#8217;t be cured? If we collectively as a species worked together instead of against would we have to worry about our ever growing lack of natural resources?</p>
<p>The time is coming and while I may not see it in my lifetime I would hate to see what my children or children&#8217;s children are forced to deal with because of how lazy and ridiculous our society has become.  </p>
<p>We can&#8217;t even as humans walk away from something simple as a game and forget about it.  We have to trash, riot, and insult each other to the point where a fight breaks out between friends and people who are supposed to be on the same team.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>About a month ago I wrote about a problem I had with people and there unbelievable disrespect to the planet we lived on.  The post was entitled <a href="http://www.hotstickybun.com/2010/01/30/captain-planet">Captain Planet</a> and more or less enforced my feelings to how shitty we as a species have treated the planet we live on and essentially the same home our kids and kids kids will try to live on for the next hundreds of years.  Since writing that post I&#8217;ve at least made a conscious effort to recycle or reduce any and all of my plastic in take.  Its nice to see some progress being made with companies like Sunchips using a biodegradable bag but I get the feeling it&#8217;s too little too late and now I can see why&#8230;</p>
<p>the Idiots Have Taken Over</p>
<p><a href="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/poolthongs.jpg"><img src="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/poolthongs.jpg" alt="" title="poolthongs" width="729" height="547" class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-1056" /></a></p>
<div id="attachment_899" class="wp-caption aligncenter" style="width: 600px"><a href="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/idiots.jpg"><img src="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/idiots-e1269584524581.jpg" alt="Idiots Have Taken Over" title="Idiots Have Taken Over" width="590" height="442" class="size-full wp-image-899" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Whether you believe it or not, the Idiots Have Taken Over</p></div>
<h2>Here We Go Again</h2>
<p>I don&#8217;t know if I would say I&#8217;m getting political again but I&#8217;m pissed again at society.  There is a reason I don&#8217;t watch the evening news because it always represents the bad and focuses in on the shit.  Tonight in Vancouver some man was attacked for no apparent reason and beaten over the head with a mallet, if not for the heroics of a woman he would probably be dead.  No one knew the reasoning for the attack but there is a strong possibility there was no reason.  </p>
<p>Years back when I was living in Edmonton my cousins hubby was enjoying his time down on Whyte Avenue after partaking in an epic concert at Rexall place.  It was towards the end of the night when he was standing outside of Winks when he was beaten in the back with a baseball bat.  Eventually the police got involved and much to there surprise they had told them that it was the 8th record of it happening that night.  Turns out it was apparently some sort of initiation.</p>
<p>Some sort of initiation? An initiation that involves beating innocent people, male and female, for no apparent reason?  Why?  I&#8217;m the biggest idiot when it comes to toilet humor (this website showcases that strongly) but how in the world can someone find that &#8220;funny&#8221;?  I&#8217;ve done some ridiculous things in my life that I regret and probably will the rest of my life but something like that is beyond idiocy and it worries me quite frequently to what we are walking into in the future.  It&#8217;s becoming more and more frequent in today&#8217;s society that people are pulling shit like this because it&#8217;s supposed to be funny when in truth the only funny thing about is how much of an idiot they are for thinking so.</p>
<p>Sadly that was only one of MANY stories I could talk about.  The same thing happened in an LRT station where a man was beaten nearly to death for no reason.  Another man was pushed onto the tracks just missing a train as it arrived.</p>
<h2>Something so small, yet much bigger</h2>
<div id="attachment_903" class="wp-caption alignright" style="width: 235px"><a href="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/idiots2.jpg"><img src="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/idiots2-e1269585613618.jpg" alt="History Has Been Full of Idiots" title="History Has Been Full of Idiots" width="225" height="336" class="size-full wp-image-903" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">We've been Idiots for many years</p></div>
<p>Yet here we are shaking our heads at things like murder, assault, robbery, etc. and when we look to our apparent leaders in charge they are committing the same atrocities&#8230;and for what, religion?  Oil?  More Money?  Are things getting any better?  Probably not.  </p>
<p>Now I&#8217;m not one to weigh in one the &#8220;War on Terrorism&#8221; because I don&#8217;t ever try to pretend I know what&#8217;s going on.  I dont agree with one side or the other. Both sides have killed each other, innocents, and committed mass genocide throughout the process.  And still it spreads through it&#8217;s countries people that anyone associated with the opposition is evil!  I read this earlier today:</p>
<p><em>I was a 24 year old medical student in the US before deciding I wanted to  see a bit of the world before  I got old. I went to a youth hostel in New Delhi during summer break while waiting for a friend from law school in the the US to meet me there., In four days the owners of the guest house, who were clearly dealing heroine, decided that they did not trust me, did not like Americans, and drugged the coke I was drinking (the skin under my fingernails turned purple/blue and I got really sleepy) then they surrounded me and dropped me off their balcony which is about 2o feet (more than 6 meters) from the ground. I woke up in the Apollo hospital with a spinal cord injury and a serious skull fracture. I was airlifted back to the US to receive further surgery and I can, by Grace of God, walk now but my life will never be the same.</em></p>
<p>The question remains, as a Canadian or American would you feel nervous with a Muslim flying on a plane with you?  It&#8217;s the way the world is now.  No one can trust each other and we certainly don&#8217;t respect one another.</p>
<h2>The Future</h2>
<p>I&#8217;m often asked (jokingly) if I will ever settle down, get married, and have kids to which I more often respond &#8220;nope&#8221;.  Maybe I will slip up or change my mind but to this day I don&#8217;t think it will happen.  Perhaps I&#8217;m over exaggerating but when one sees what is happening in the world with the pollution, war, and disrespect for another why would you want to put one of your kids through something so shitty that&#8217;s about to happen.  Society is so messed up now and it won&#8217;t get any better in the near future, money runs the Government, the people in charge get richer, so why would the people in power change to begin with?  </p>
<h2>NOFX</h2>
<div id="attachment_909" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 260px"><a href="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/idiots3.jpg"><img src="http://www.hotstickybun.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/idiots3.jpg" alt="NOFX" title="NOFX" width="250" height="249" class="size-full wp-image-909" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Never Trust A Hippy</p></div>
<p>It&#8217;s funny because a lot of the other things people find weird about me is my ever growing collection of punk rock (if that&#8217;s what its called, there&#8217;s to many names of punk rock, who cares) music I collect and listen to.  One band in particular is NOFX who I&#8217;ve listened to I think since Philly introduced them to me on my way back to Calgary one summer.  It&#8217;s something about this type of genre of music that I relate to and perhaps why I spend a lot of time listening to it.  More so maybe it&#8217;s the reason for this epic rant.  </p>
<p>Like any good punk rock band they have there ridiculous songs (see Liza &#038; Louise &#8211; a great song about lesbianism) but they also have a strong voice when it comes to such big things like war and politics, as all great punk rock bands did (example, the Ramones).  One song in particular, and the one I&#8217;ve named this nonsense about is Idiots Are Taking Over.</p>
<p>Why?  Well when I listen to the song and read/watch the news it puts everything into perspective about how the idiots are actually taking over.  As our society continues to evolve and invent amazing new technologies we still feel the urge to not share our knowledge with others.   Would it be so hard to work together to achieve something as great as colonizing the Moon or another planet like Mars?  Why is it important for the U.S, Russia, and China to all have separate space programs when if they all worked as one they would probably reach their goal faster?</p>
<p>Would it be so hard to respect one another?</p>
<p>I dont know.  </p>
<p>What I do know is there are to many idiots making idiot decisions.</p>
<h2>The Idiots Are Taking Over</h2>
<p><em>it&#8217;s not the right time to be sober<br />
now the idiots have taken over<br />
spreading like a social cancer, is there an answer?</p>
<p>Mensa membership conceding<br />
tell me why and how are all the stupid people breeding<br />
Watson, it&#8217;s really elementary<br />
the industrial revolution<br />
has flipped the bitch on evolution<br />
the benevolent and wise are being thwarted, ostracized, what a bummer<br />
the world keeps getting dumber<br />
insensitivity is standard and faith is being fancied over reason</p>
<p>darwin&#8217;s rollin over in his coffin<br />
the fittest are surviving much less often<br />
now everything seems to be reversing, and it&#8217;s worsening<br />
someone flopped a steamer in the gene pool<br />
now angry mob mentality&#8217;s no longer the exception, it&#8217;s the rule<br />
and im startin to feel a lot like charlton heston<br />
stranded on a primate planet<br />
apes and orangutans that ran it to the ground<br />
with generals and the armies that obeyed them<br />
followers following fables<br />
philosophies that enable them to rule without regard</p>
<p>there&#8217;s no point for democracy when ignorance is celebrated<br />
political scientists get the same one vote as some Arkansas inbred<br />
majority rule, don&#8217;t work in mental institutions<br />
sometimes the smallest softest voice carries the grand biggest solutions</p>
<p>what are we left with?<br />
a nation of god-fearing pregnant nationalists<br />
who feel it&#8217;s their duty to populate the homeland<br />
pass on traditions<br />
how to get ahead religions<br />
And prosperity via simpleton culture</p>
<p>the idiots are takin over [x8]</em></p>
