No I am not talking about banning some kinky website, this is actually serious! I was watching ABC News last night with Charles Gibson, and old Chuck had a story regarding banning spanking for parents. I personally believe that a ban of such type is bullshit. The story was rater short but still pretty interesting as there were two sides to this debate. The advocate for the ban was some nurse who started a petition to push the whole thing forward. When being interviewed this lady was referring spanking a child to domestic violence and child abuse. She went on to dramatically describe her experience of being spanked as a kid by saying, “I can remember those times as a child and I was thinking, what is wrong with my parents”. Obviously she has some serious issues that may need to be addressed with a psychiatrist rather than trying to ban parents from reprimanding their kids.

They also had a famous talk show host on who asked some pretty interesting questions about all this. Like how would we enforce the issue, put monitoring cameras in everyone’s home? Or are we going to have 3 year old children testifying against their parents in court because they were bad and got their Nentendo Wii taken away? His points were well taken, as making this whole thing illegal is simply ridiculous. Beating the shit out of your kid for no reason is child abuse. Smacking them on the ass for acting up, to me is good parenting. That’s one of the reasons why we have so much crime today as kids do not suffer any consequences for bad behavior and later grow up to think they can do whatever the fuck they want without getting in trouble.

The bottom line here is that reprimanding your kids should be the choice of the parents and not the government. What good would come from having illegal spanking? Put good parents in jail for doing the right thing? Why not put more people in prison for stupid shit isn’t that what America is all about, fucking time out? I think this whole issue is a waste of time and drawn up by some bitch that got spanked as a child and now has mental issues. And if a “spanking ban” ever makes it to the voting poles, be sure this topic will be brought up again on my site.

So here we are, the Dolphins loose another one by 3 points putting us at 0-11. But what I really want to talk about is how it all went down last night. First off ESPN’s announcers suck, they sound like two retards fighting over a hotdog. These assholes were taking shots at Ricky Williams like he was a fucking dog. The guy got intentionally stepped on after a play and they were like “guess he’s going to have to get used to the hits”. HE GOT HURT ASSHOLE! I was yelling so bad at the damn TV that I think they actually heard me. And later on ESPN officials must have said something to them as they toned it down a little, but still continued to be total dicks when making any type of comment.

I also would like to know what genius gets paid as the head groundskeeper for that field in Pittsburgh? Did any of you see that shit? They put sod on top of sod and then it rained on it. It made a complete mess of the field and washed away all the markings, leaving just a muddy swamp. You know what they did next? They put fucking kitty litter on the field to try and soak it up, yea kitty litter! So whoever is in charge of taking care of the grounds there, maybe it’s time for some artificial turf?

Now I’m not making any excuses here for Miami, the bottom line is we suck and must have some type of curse on us. I also think that one of the biggest mistakes we made this year was signing Joey Porter for 22 million. I think that pissed the rest of the defense off completely. He is a washed up overpaid linebacker and it took a game with his old team for Joey to actually play halfway decent. Where was that in the other ten games Joey you lazy fuck? And Cam, why didn’t you kick the fucking ball for the 3 points when we had the chance?

So it all comes down to the fact that we are now the laughing stock of the NFL this season. And I believe that Cam Cameron is right in that our future exists in the rookies John Beck and Ted Ginn Jr. as those two seem to have a good vibe together. Beck did not look like a rookie but rather a future pro bowler and Ginn has got enormous talent as well. The only thing I can say is what I have been saying for a long ass time “maybe next year?”.

So the last time I actually went to movie theatre was in 2002 for the release of 8 Mile. That was over five years ago, and I now remember why. I had this great idea that my wife and I do something different last night and suggested we go see American Gangster. So I go online to buy tickets early and try to save some time waiting in line. I pay for a 7:15 show at AMC Aventura and to my surprise, they don’t give you the fucking tickets and you still have to wait in line. What a crock of shit huh?

So we go out to the Aventura mall early as now we still have to wait to pickup our tickets. We get there and it’s packed, with absolutely no parking. We drive around for twenty minutes trying to find a place to park while fighting the idiots who cannot drive. Finally we find a spot on the other side of the mall and have to walk about two miles to get to the damn movies. Once we get there the line was so fucking long you couldn’t see the front of the building. Now we’re late and have very little chance to get in let alone catch the movie on time. Thanks for your online tickets assholes!

I said fuck it, we looked up the closest theatre and we were on our way. So we get to this one a little early and without any problems but we had to wait 30 minutes until the show started. By now I see a Friday’s next door and opted for a drink, I really needed one by then. My wife and I have our drink and hobble back to the theatre. Obviously we need some popcorn and a soda, seventeen fucking dollars! Hell why not? I already paid for the movie twice. We get in and the only seats left are the front row, goddamn it. Then you have people bumping into you, coughing on you and farting right next to you. This shit really sucked! However the movie was great and despite all the bullshit my wife and I had a great time and enjoyed each other’s company. But I bet it may be another five years before you get me back at the movies. Give me my Tivo and a beer and I’m set!

While I don’t have the best of manners when writing on my blog, thats why its called bitching, I do happen to know how to act in public. But there are a lot of people out there who do not. I was taught from the time I was able to speak that you must always say “yes sir, no sir” “yes ma’am, no ma’m” “please and thank you”. Although a lot of women don’t like to be called ma’am anymore for some reason. But it seems that everywhere I go you cannot even get someone to acknowledge you, let alone say thank you or your welcome.

What is the deal with this? Is it just me that sees this happening and maybe only happens with the idiots in S. Florida? Or maybe it’s a cultural thing that I don’t understand? Whatever the reason, it’s complete bullshit! Put it this way, if you are walking down the street one way and I the other way and we make eye contact, I will say “hello”. Thats just common courtesy, but people don’t even look at you to say hello or good morning back. Some do, but most don’t.

Another good example is at restaurants, check out counters, toll booths etc. You pay for a service, get your change back and say “thank you”. These rude ass people just give you that “I’m an asshole” look and say absolutely nothing. Damn that really pisses me off! Now these are just a few examples, there are so many other ways in which people have bad manners and are just plain rude. Like talking on a cell phone during a movie, bumping into you and not saying “excuse me”, eating like a baboon, ignoring you when you are looking for help at the store, etc etc. The list can go on for days!

I honestly believe this starts at home with parenting as my parents taught me the right way, or I got smacked. But this doesn’t happen today, the parents are assholes so it’s inevitable that the kids will turn out this way as well. And if you are reading this right now and see nothing wrong here, YOU are one of those rude ass people. So I know you all are going to ask “Doug, what can we do about this?” I say fuck it, the next time you are out and someone fails to follow the manner rules, correct them like you are their parents. Why not? Maybe if we all start doing that some of these people may get the hint and start acting like they should.

Have you ever purchased a CD or DVD from the store and tried to open it? What a pain in the ass huh? It’s like trying to crack a fucking safe for Christ’s sake. You get through the first four layers of plastic and stickers, then you have like three additional “security” labels to remove. By the time you get the fucking disk out, the casing is scratched all to hell and you almost break the damn thing. Your teeth are probably cracked trying to remove the plastic or you cut yourself with a knife trying to get it. After going through all that shit you don’t even want to watch or listen to whatever the fuck you just bought. You see why I like the digital world better?
