Pure Horse Shit

There is no shortage of pure horse shit being tossed around these days.

Political, religious and commercial panderers have all clearly decided that we are a bunch of morons who will believe just about anything they throw our way.

Pathetically, it seems to me that they are probably right.

WITH AGE COMES WISDOM:

The older I get the more I doubt this.

Some folks say I have become much wiser with age.

But they are wrong!

Yes, it’s true that I get into less trouble now than I did when I was younger. But that’s only because I have to work a lot harder to find trouble than I used to.

When I was a younger man, trouble always seemed to find me whether or not I was looking for it.

ACCIDENT FORGIVENESS INSURANCE:

This is a con job more worthy of a politician than an insurance company.

If you have the accident forgiveness policy, your rates won’t go up when you have your first accident (because you’ve already been paying the higher premiums all along).

Duh!!!

**************************

FREE WILL:

We like to believe we have free will.

It’s an absurd proposition.

We are controlled by our genetics, our hormones, our environment and our memories.

But if you insist on saying that you have free will, try these simple tests:

1. Remember when you selected your personality or your level of impulse control?
2. Change your sexual orientation for a day. You can always change it back tomorrow.
3. Make up your mind that you will be asleep in ten seconds, then count down from ten to zero and let me know how well that worked out for you.

ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL

Give me a break! This is so obviously false I wonder why anybody ever took it seriously.

JESUS DIED FOR YOUR SINS:

I struggle to understand that in the world this could possibly mean.

MAN CONTROLS HIS OWN DESTINY

This is rank bullshit.

The women in his life to that for him.

**************************

WE’RE GOING TO BUILD A WALL FROM SEA TO SHINING SEA AND MEXICO’S GOING TO PAY FOR IT!

This was a lie so outrageous that it would surely have insulted the intelligence of voters had they not been so stupid that they failed to even realize their intelligence was being insulted.

**************************

WOMEN ARE COMMITTED TO RELATIONSHIPS:

We are told that men are all sexually rapacious scoundrels and that women are so much more devoted to relationships.

I have serious doubts about this.

I’ve enjoyed a long and very active sex life. I can’t honestly say how many women I’ve canoodled since my first sexual rendezvous during my late teens, but it’s safe to say you could fill a Boeing 737 and still have about two dozen women left over who would have to wait for the next flight. About 25 to 30% of these women who I glued to the bed sheets, coffee table or desktop were married or at least cohabitating with another man when they were submitting to my glue gun. Moreover, I’ve been sexually active for a little less than 51 years now. I’ve been married for all but 2 years and 2 months of those nearly 51 years and almost ALL of the women who occasionally spent a night in bed with me knew I was married (5 or 6 never bothered to ask my status).

BEHOLD THE AWESOME POWER OF PRAYER:

Yet another fairy tale for those who think they can lose weight without changing their eating habits or exercise and who think their invisible friend in the sky has a magic wand he’s ready to wave and solve all of your problems if you will just get down on your knees and beg.

A MAN IS ONLY AS OLD AS HE FEELS:

This one is at least close to being true. It just needs a little world-smithing:

A Man Is Only as Old as (the Woman) He Feels.
