The truth list

(this may be updated from time to time)

  • Your local evening television news is purposely dumbed down to a 7th grade level. You will notice that newscasters never use any “big” words. This is done on purpose because America is that stupid.
  • The most popular songs of the world are either about love, dancing, sex, and/or partying. So if you ever wanted to write a hit song, it must be one of those four topics.
  • Recycling is a complete waste of time. The cost it takes to do it serves no significant savings and the result does not save the environment at all. If you want to truly do good for the environment, participate in clean-up projects and plant trees (properly).
  • Buying all-American products will do nothing but make you go broke. And even if you can afford it, the quality of product is substandard compared to manufacturing processes in other countries, so you pay more for nothing.
  • Many people get depressed simply for the reason they don’t get enough sleep.
  • If you only consume food and drink products labeled as “diet”, you will get sick over time.
  • Anyone who complains there is an overpopulation problem in the United States has obviously never been to Idaho, Wyoming, Maine or Alaska.
  • Every generation thinks theirs was the best. The best cars, music, television shows, etc.
  • Renting is always cheaper than owning.
  • Rent-to-own on the other hand is the worst way to buy anything.
  • The way to not pay income taxes is simple. Don’t work.
  • Fiscally speaking, driving a motorcycle is the cheapest way to get around - assuming you can drive one year-round where you live.
  • Nobody wants to hear the truth, but rather only what they want to hear.
  • Anyone who says “I don’t care what other people think about me” is a liar, because if they truly didn’t care they wouldn’t have said that in the first place.
  • If you want to improve your life in one simple step, stop watching television.
  • Jeans and t-shirts will never go out of style.
  • The USA is predominantly white to the tune of over 220 million white people. Black people only account for 37 million (source).
  • There is absolutely nothing good about getting old. Ask any old person.
  • The people with the best jobs in the world are illegal drug dealers because a) they always have customers, b) they get paid of a lot of money and c) they never have to pay taxes.
  • A technology where people get ripped off on a daily basis is with cell phones. People are convinced that spending at least $75 a month for a phone that drops calls, has poor audio quality and a handset that breaks every year is a good deal. News flash: It isn’t.
  • A true computer nerd knows what he or she is doing and never BRAGS about it.
  • There is absolutely no reason to spend over $500 for a new computer. None. You could list all the reasons in the world why you should spend more but you’d be wrong.
  • It is totally worth it to buy a car with as many options in it as possible.
  • There is a very thick line between the online world and the real world.
  • A mobile home is the only dwelling that decreases in value over time.
  • For some strange reason, most people adjust the side mirrors on their cars so that half of the view is of the car and not the road. The proper way to set up a side mirror is to see nothing but road so you can see more traffic behind you (duh!)
  • An “old” video gamer is anyone over the age of 21. Sad but true.
  • People say that censorship on the internet is wrong and it shouldn’t happen - yet these same people will readily block anyone that pisses them off on their forums, blogs, etc. And no there is no difference.
  • If someone decides to block you off their forum or blog, that DOES NOT curtail your “free speech” because that forum/blog is the property of someone else and NOT a government-run place. Also, anyone who types it as “free speach” is a fucking idiot that doesn’t know how to spell a word like speech correctly.
  • The worst offenders of blocking/censoring people on the internet are nerd cliques. On any popular forum anywhere on the internet there is the “elite” staff (or so-called staff) that is comprised of anywhere between 5 and 20 people. These 5 to 20 people will only allow people into their little circle if you do nothing but kiss their ass and always agree with them (oh.. God forbid if you actually have an opinion that differs from theirs!)
  • Many IT system administrators got their IT training by stealing software via the internet, installing it at home, learning it, then getting a sys-admin job later for $75,000 a year. Several of them never graduated high school.
  • The internet does have generations of users, each separated by 3 years. 1st gen = 1992-1995, 2nd gen = 1996-1999, 3rd gen = 2000-2003, 4th gen = 2004-2007, 5th gen = 2008-2011 and so on. The year you first starting using internet dictates what generation you are. I am a 2nd gen (1996). Each generation spawns new types of users. For example, 1st gen: “Nerds and Programmers”, 2nd gen: “Dial-up age”, 3rd gen: “Broadband age”, 4th gen: “Blog age”, 5th gen: “Video age”, What will the 6th gen be? No clue. But it’ll probably suck.
  • Those who cannot spell simple words correctly are genuinely stupid people. If you spell tomorrow as tomarrow, weird as wierd and the like - you are stupid. Always remember: You have spell check available at any time. The Firefox browser has it BUILT-IN. Your instant messenger has spell check BUILT-IN. Your word processor has spell check BUILT-IN. YOU HAVE NO EXCUSE. And by the way, the worst case of a misspelled word is grammar as grammer. If you write to someone “Don’t you know proper grammer?”, consider yourself a complete idiot, because you are.
  • Anyone who corrects my grammar from the above point is an asshole.
  • All children on the internet use the exact same excuses when they get caught doing something they shouldn’t, with the most popular one being “My friend did it.” However that kid forgot to say imaginary friend, because that “friend” doesn’t exist.
  • Nobody cares what computer or operating system you use.
  • It is cheaper to buy an old car and fix it rather than buy a new car.
  • It is cheaper to insure an old car compared to a new one.
  • No matter the styling, a station wagon will always be a dorky car. Same goes for the minivan.
