I used to look at dinosaur bones

When I was little every year my mom, dad, brother and I would go to Morrel Hall in Lincoln, NE. The reason for our visit was because for my brother's entire childhood he was absorbed in the world of dinosaurs. He had multiple dinosaur models, collectables and books. I went along with the tradition until my brother was about thirteen. This would have made me about ten at the time and when we pulled up to Morrel Hall I thought dinosaurs are dumb. As I stood inside Morrel Hall listening to how many teeth a Stegasauras had I realized I didn't care one bit. That was some time ago, eight years have passed since my first hate for prehistoric creatures first spawned. Now I will take you on a mental trek in order to show you the deep psychological reasons I hate those scaly toothed punks....
1. Dinosaurs don't matter.
The more I think about a logical reason people look at the bones of a dead animal that isn't coming back the more I feel flagergasted. Dinosaurs no longer matter and neither do you, if you take the time to go to dumb places like Morrel Hall. There was obviously a good reason dinosaurs died and I think that reason is precisely the reason people go to look at them now, they are a waste of time. People couldn't be alive when dinosaurs were alive because dinosaurs would have eaten all of us. The big guy upstairs must have decided that dinosaurs were so boring that he would kill them all off. Now, dumb people centuries later waste huge portions of their days looking at these boring dead animals. They weren't cool back then and they aren't cool now..get over it chump.
2. Artists can't draw a good picture.
Every picture I have ever seen of a dinosaur sucks. One time I thought I saw a cool picture of a dinosaur, and then I realized it was just a turtle. A turtle slightly resembles a dinosaur and I was almost fooled into believing a cool animal looked a lot like a sucky animal. I know you can argue that the turtle is just an evolved form of some dinosaur but that dinosaur is dead and the turtle is alive so obviously the turtle is way cooler. Back to the point, dinosaurs are lame and so is every artist's depiction of a dinosaur.
3. I hate dinosaurs
Ok, well this post is taking to long and I don't really want to tell you every reason a dinosaur is awful you are just gonna have to accept it. Quit wasting your life with dumb ol dead dinos and move on to something awesome...like water polo.

If I'm a bad dancer, so are you.

This past weekend I chose to skip my high school homecoming dance and attend the Nebraska, Virginia Tech game. Nebraska lost the game and in case you didn't watch it, it was a pathetic display of football that will always make me a little angry everytime I think about it. Reflecting on my decision to skip the dance, I came to realize that I am a completely awful dancer and so is everyone else. It doesn't really matter if you think you are good at dancing because the only objective in dancing is to thrust and gyrate your body faster and more graceful than everyone else on the "dance flo". Don't get me wrong I can bump and grind with the best of them, but because of my flailing movements that apparently don't look good I am labeled a bad dancer. I happen to think that such moves as "the moonwalk" or "the soulja boy" look way worse when put up against my "sprinkler" or "lawn mower". Next time you see me struttin' my goods don't label my moves as awful because I will turn around and punch you...directly in the face. Your dancing is bad and mine is awesome. How do I come to that conclusion? Beauty is in the feet of the dancer and my size ten Sombas think my dancing is amazing.

I am a bad voter

As the presidential election nears, I find myself caring less and less. Sure it comes down to John McCain and Barack Obama but I don't know enough about either of the candidates to feel my vote will be well placed. I think that in the case of many younger people, the spark and fire to go out and learn the candidates stance on different issues just isn't there. The president will obviously make a huge difference on many things and if I voted on a whim and hated the new president, the blame would be partly on me. My uneducated vote I feel would be better uncast. I am only 18 years old and because of my immaturity and lack of knowledge of the inner workings of our government, my vote will lay dormant, for this election at least.
