I was seriously pissed off when I wrote that. That's why it's so slanted. If I ever planned to send that anywhere or post it on a personal site or anything I would definately edit it a dozen or so more times (the copy I've posted I typed directly onto this site as I was thinking it).
It's basically a reaction against my parents. Which is strange coming at the age of 21 rather than the usual 14-18. They're total "Fox-Heads" these days and just say whatever they see on television. It makes me frustrated to see my parents act like the majority of people and just glance idly at news programs and never really put any thought into them (which is what an electorate is supposed to do, don't you think?). So I guess I had to vent, for some reason.
I guess some of the angst comes from the fact that I am so rarely impressed these days and I guess people opposite of what I described would impress me and give me some faith in humanity. I'm constantly hero-searching so that I can find people whose lives impress me and make me want to be more like them and so far the only people living that I'd put on it are Trey Parker, Matt Stone, Matt Groenig and Maynard James Keenan. And absolutely none of them are Fox Heads.
