My Thoughts On Lazy Bums

There are some people in this world that refuse to grow up. I can empathize with wanting to remain a child forever because being a child is much less stressful then being an adult. You don't have to worry about money, i.e, gas prices, bills, etc. You don't have to worry about relationships other than the ones you have with your family, for the most part, and your largest concern every day is what you are going to have for dessert after dinner. The fact of the matter is, that despite how much one may enjoy the simplicity that being a child affords you, you simply cannot remain a child forever. If you try to, you simply become a very large human being, (not considered an adult), and the people around you begin to loath your very existence.

Now, some people think that they should be able to do and act how they choose because it is their choice and it doesn't hurt anyone, others should mind their own business. However, every bum in this world effects other people. If you aren't making any money, where are you getting it? The government. Where does the government get their money? My paycheck. So yes, you are taking money, however indirectly, out of my pocket if you choose to be lazy. If you are a worthless parent you affect your child(ren) and their other parent. If you are a lazy sibling or child you affect your family.

At some point in life one should realize that there is no excuse for making the same amount of money at thirty, that you did when you were sixteen. It should dawn on a person that being responsible is going to benefit you, not hurt you. It's okay to rebel against the system, without hurting those around you. Your biggest success in life should not be being able to play a Guitar Hero song on "expert" all the way though.

This is what the last generation's Guitar Hero champion looks like today:

It's sad, I know. Life is about having fun and enjoying life. But if my tax dollars are supporting your pot habit, then I disagree with your lifestyle and I think you should go jump of a cliff and end your worthless life. And anyway, this is what pot and the over eating from its affects does to you after years of use:

I think if these two could go back in time that they would have made some different choices. They may have put down the pipe and chips, turned off the television, went for a jog, showered a time or two, put some effort into finding a job making more than $5.50 an hour and tried to give their lives a decent effort. They could have even saved me a buck or two with a little motivation.

MissMP, I couldn't agree with you more. What really kills me is those that have so much potential and throw it away. My brother in law who is 22, just got married and they will probably start pumping out kids soon is just driving me crazy. He could excel in school or get a decent job, but instead he mows lawns in the summer and shovels walks in the winter. His young bride must be really proud of him. It makes me want to scream.

Anyway, love you, TNO

People are just self-centered... I empathize with your situation with the brother in law. Being forced to deal with the lazy is what is the most unbearable.

Anyway... love you, too, TNO. Thanks for reading, dear.
