Today is Thanksgiving here in the good ol’ US.
And, unlike most lists today, I’m not going to yap on about what I’m thankful for. (And really, why would you care anyway?) Instead, I’m going to talk about what I’m NOT thankful for.
Here’s a list:
(Not by any means exhaustive):
- Pedophiles running amok — especially in positions of power (Hollywood, Washington DC, public schools, yada yada yada) with a media that is slowly starting to accept it and, in some cases, defend it
- Corrupt judges, lawyers, and cops (see the Innocence Project for how widespread this is)
- Child trafficking
- Violent protestors bought and paid for by billionaires that live overseas
- Media lies and manipulation that make what’s good seem bad and what’s bad seem good
- And the list goes on…
(I’m just getting warmed up here, Sunshine.)
Those are things elBenbo is *not* thankful for and hopes get more attention than videos of cats on flakebook some day, instead of being swept under the rug — “nothing to see here, move along…”
So go ahead, babycakes.
Enjoy your turkey.
Me?
I’ll be wallowing in despair today.
(While I eat turkey, drink beer, and watch football, of course…)
Tomorrow?
Black Friday.
I suggest avoiding Wal-Mart.
