Is Anything Worth Saying?

I got this big box on my bed. It's Axis and Allies. I won it during my final in World War II, because we, the British, destroyed all others. Well, mostly the axis.

My roommate has the t.v. on right now. Discovery is airing homemade mini-dragraces scooting down their wooden tracks. Its called powertool racers. Stupid...

Anyway, I now own the complete game...

Wait. The show is back on. They have a special class of dragracers! Dangerous. Racers powered by CO2 tanks and even bigger CO2 tanks! Sigh.

The chances I will play Axis and Allies remain slim. My family doesn't play complicated games, and I have gained a bad reputation for refusing to play games with my family. Card games, board games, any games. I don't like playing...

No! NO! You must be joking. The stupid show has feminists dragracing queens. They called their racer the "Tramp On Wheels," to represent their sex at the competition. You have got to be joking. The racer comes with a head, a wig, and everything. The drama!

Watching t.v. while writing posts makes things interesting and provides for interesting content.

I might sell the game on ebay. The extra cash would be nice. But what is it with modern culture? How can shows like PowerTools Dragracer draw any audience? My philosophy professor would cite Kierkegaard's austetic life of boredom and its search for anything remotely interesting. But that cannot be the reason. The shows are too stupid to sate anyones boredom!

On a similar note, I can't wait for Star Wars III! Grown men moving things with their minds and fighting with colorful high powered lasers!

One must pick their stupidity carefully.
