words are my weapon

Haven’t been on here in a while. I’ve had some conversations based on past blogs since my last post. I’m still gathering my thoughts as I craft my next “pipe bomb.”

Stay tuned -

When Will They Learn?

Over the weekend, I had a run-in (albeit on a Facebook status) with a “Typical Mecklenburg resident” who made some very ignorant (go figure) comments a friend of mine had put on his status about Lee/Jackson Day. Now, my friend said nothing derogatory about Lee/Jackson Day, he just pointed out it was celebrated. No more, no less. This “genius” proceeded to go on a rant about how “unfair” it was that the schools gave lessons on Martin Luther King and not Lee and/or Jackson when Dr. King had his own quote, “stinkin’ day” on Monday. 

So I chimed in.

“I’m confused, what’s wrong with MLK day exactly? I mean, his whole thing was for equality. For black people to have the right to work the same jobs and earn the same pay that their white counterparts did to better provide for their families. Seems fair to me.”

The raging hillbilly moron (who is actually from Jersey, by the way) then spat off that white people were slaves in America before black people were, and there needed to be a Civil War History month since there was a Black History month.

I responded.

“Actually, white people have been slaves throughout various points in history dating back further than the Middle Ages. Also, April is Confederate History Month here in VA.”

Then, redneck superstar began insulting me and my reading ability stating that she hadn’t said a word about MLK day.

“Cult of Personality” begins to play in my head as I read this. Who in the blue hell are you to insult me? I’m sorry, but I wasn’t raised in the dark. Anyone who knows anything about American history knows that this great country was based on faith, freedom, and tolerance. Tolerance for those that are different than us, or believe other things that we do. Those are ideals that should always remain steadfast throughout the past, present, and future of this nation. The truth of the matter is that just because you’re from the south doesn’t mean you’re a brain-dead moron racist. There are good, decent people here. We just cannot keep the ignorant assholes out of the public eye.

My greatest fear is that I will apply for a job in a major city that I really want. They will look at my resume, and regardless of my educational accomplishments, GPA, work experience, etc., they will take one look at where I am from, deduct 110 I.Q. points, and toss my resume into the rejection pile because I have been stereotyped with the rest of the ignorant jackoff’s that sadly hold the majority in this area.

Could I have cussed her ignorant ass out and put her in her place that way? Of course. But what would that have proved? Outside that I am well versed in “French,” absolutely nothing. So, I decided I was going to shut up ignorance with intelligence.

“Actually, I can read just fine. Thanks for asking. After all, I am a soon to be college graduate with a Bachelor’s in Pro. Writing in just a matter of months. Reading is really something that is part of my everyday life. My response was never to your post as a whole, just to your referencing King getting his own “stinkin day” on Monday. The reason Lee/Jackson weren’t talked about on Friday is because schools are out on Monday, so they have to talk about the holiday the day before, because it wouldn’t make sense the day after. Not to mention that MLK day is a nationally recognized holiday, where Lee/Jackson day is locally here just in the state of VA. Perhaps if the state still observed Lee/Jackson/King day, they could have thrown something in about them, but the state reverted that 2000. And to answer your other question, no, I doubt they will talk about the Civil War next week. Maybe that is something that will be discussed in April during Confederate History Month.”

She never challenged another thing I said after that reply. I consider this a victory for intelligence. I shot down her ridiculous statements with proven facts. It goes to show that intellect will always hold a greater power than ignorance.

Keep Yappin’ Off

There aren’t many things in life that get under my skin. Anyone that knows me knows I have a very high tolerance to people and their bullshit. However, if there is one thing I cannot stand, it is people who think they are big enough or bad enough to “order” me around. Just to give some background info here, I don’t take any shit from any body. Growing up, I barely listened to my parents, so what chance in Hell do other people think they have?

My “Step-Dad” got ballsy and decided he was going to mouth-off to me. Now, I’ve never had a problem with him before, and haven’t given him a reason to now. He made a very bad decision to get lippy with me. While he may have started it, I damn sure will finish it.

Why?

Simply put, because I’m BETTER

The day some rednecky, fat ass trucker that is a Robin Williams level of hairy puts me in my place is the day that Hell freezes over and pigs fucking fly.

What have you done with your life that gives you the right to attempt to order me? What exactly have you accomplished? I’ll answer that. Nothing. Not one single mother fucking thing.

You’re a hick. Your children are even more hick than you are, and one of them looks like GD Shrek!

Let me introduce myself to you. My name is Corey Farley, and I’m the guy that says and does whatever I want to whomever I please. I’m the guy that has been putting people like you in their place since 1987. I’m the best. I’m the best in the world. Where are your college degrees? Oh, that’s right, you don’t have any! So not only am I better than you, I’m also smarter, and more successful that you’ll ever be.

I take great pride in knowing that at the end of the day, when you’re old and on your death bed looking back on your pathetic excuse of a life, and you reflect on all the hard work and struggles you’ve gone through, all I’ll have to do to surpass everything you’ll accomplish in your entire life is simply lean to the left and fart.

Here is wisdom: DON’T FUCK WITH PEOPLE YOU KNOW NOTHING ABOUT, because there is an extremely good chance they will make you feel like less than shit. That isn’t a threat, that is a promise, that is gospel, and I suggest you take it as such.

I’m better than you and your entire bumpkin ass family, and don’t you ever forget it!
