Hey Rider Readers!
So my last post was intended to be a happy birthday post. Well it turned out I had posted it on the right day.
Many of ya'll have seen this picture on the news, Facebook, and everywhere online saying it marks the end of the world predicted by the Mayans. Well this calendar is actually Aztec. The Mayan Calender looks a little like this...
(image from vandergreg.blogspot.com) Also it doesn't mark the end of the world it marks a Mayan new year. The media is even using the right calender so how can you trust them to even know if its accurate?
We've also heard about a recent event that occurred at an elementary school last week. Well this is the only mention I'm going to give that event, one of the reasons is because the media hype makes people want to top it and do it bigger, and the second reason is because these shootings make me want to crawl into a dark place and hided till its all over. No one ever remembers the victims and only care until something else comes along to distract them. They like these pictures on Facebook or retweeting this stuff and the sad thing is they think that the tiny things they do online actually do something. Liking that picture isn't going to feed the hungry and Sharing that picture isn't going to do anything for cancer victims.
I read a couple weeks ago that someone made an attempt to kill and castrate Justin Bieber. Most people commented on how the guy wouldn't have found anything to cut off. I don't like the guy either but have some respect someone just tried to kill the guy. Beiber is clearly OK but that doesn't give anyone the right to mock him like that.
On a more cheerful note I realized why Justin Beiber has a bigger following than My Chemical Romance, its all about marketing. You can go to wal-mart and find like 4 different Justin Beiber dolls that include the "new haircut and his adorable dog", yes that is quote from the box, But you wouldn't find a single MCR t-shirt or a fabulous Killjoy doll, which would be really awesome, though they do have some awesome fanart.
sorry for the rambling
Merry Christmas, Happy Hanuka, and for all the holidays
I can't spell or remember I hope you enjoy and have a wonderful
time with your family and friends.
Peace
Dani
Also the pictures I used I found on Google Images and tried to give credit to the people that I found them from.
