Cruel World

Today wasn't really a good or a bad day . . . it was more of a middle day.
It started wonderful got to talk to fun people. And upon opening my blog I was hoping for a comment and then thought about my post and was like o theres no way I'll get a comment theres nothing to comment on I didn't ask for one, but low and behold there one was. Someone thought my post was awesome. So then I got to talk to one of my favorite people to talk to at the moment, and as I was talking to her she ended up placing a post thinking she liked it, I was blown away. Then a kind of sadder moment I figured out how the counter stats worked and learned everyone there was either on Netscape or Internet Explorer and some other nifty stuff that made me feel like a stalker so now I can't really look at my site hit stats anymore :( but I'm 165 of my 355 visitors. Better than I thought. I got ahead on my Englsih reading, and got to talk to more people while telling them the weekend/day was good for some reason they asked why and so I showed them my post 2 more people said it was good, but I'm not sure if that was just being polite or not, thats the problem with things meant to be nice with politeness you never know if a good thing is really good. Anyway got to talk to fun people. Now for the part of the day that fits the title and managed to drop it from a good day to a mediocre one. Well I was looking at my site stats from the counter and I was ranked 110 in the category I put mine in (Culture and Relationships, there didn't seem any that really fit) and so I clicked it. Well the one ranked above mine had a description saying my story of changing from a man to a woman or somthing like that kind of freaked me out (not the bad part). I clicked to see what the top in the category were and. . . I'll say the 2nd one first because it is farther from driving me insane. I went to this love story thing, just kind of curious, still thinking of my break up. Anyhow it had ghost stories and love stories so
I went to one and it was about this girl who's parents didn't approve of her boyfriend and so when she told him he asked for pen, paper wrote somthing on it, told her not to open it till she got home, then right there pulled out a gun and shot himself in the head, she passed out, when she woke up and learned he was dead she found out the letter said he wouldn't live with out her. At the end he said that wasn't the end of the story (although the story was real) well the comments were all about Great story and I want to hear the rest a few said that it was sad. The comments all wanting to hear more and saying how great the story was made me sick
so I read another one
This one started off much better some guy normally very strong was very weak and needed to paramedics to carry him up to his 3rd story dorm room. It then went into how the long distance relationship made anything he could do to late. This far I was happy I figured long distance break up and was fine although, the next line changed. His girlfriend had committed suicide so she wouldn't have to marry her uncle's son, who her family had decided she would marry. He drove to her grave but was to late. Anyhow I read about 5 comments before being sickened again only one of these said it was sad they all said great story, what type of people can only say that stories like that are great and if they even mentioned it was sad, it was just that as they then elaborated on how great the story was I was pretty devastated.
Now the other part that tore me up. In the top few 1st was of course some porn site and other porn sites were scattered around, but in the top 10 was this hate site against gays. Now I'm not gay but I'm still pretty offended, on flat principle for one for if they were the majority the equivalent would be a hate site for straight people. But thats the least of my problems to not like somthing you should have a reason, but to hate. . .to hate somthing you absolutely need a reason at the minimum and for it to a person. . . it should take a lot, but a whole generalization of people is quite a task. So if you can't give a reason your an A#$ H%$, if you can and if its religious then that it was one of the most difficult ones for me to combat because I don't know where it says anything about it, and have a hard time aruguing, but I doubt to me of those people have strong religious convictions. The other reason I've heard is its not natural now this one absolutely disgusts me, because if you thought unnatural was bad, then you should stop every factory, tear down every house, stop every dam, turn off all power, just for a beginning of whats not natural, and if you think its wrong because its different then you are another one of those people who are the reason the Native Americans were pushed off their land, the African Americans were enslaved, the Jews were persecuted, and Hitler's attempt to make a perfect society. Now I on my own insult them enough on a daily basis thats beyond fair, with as many times as I use gay as an insult, but when people believe they need to make a site devoted to hating people, who don't represent anything violent, any truly negative place in society, or anything putting down any other idea. And not only do they feel a need to make the site but they have enough people going there on a daily basis for it to be ranked in the top 10 then we have a problem in society that needs to be fixed. If this is insulting to anyone it should be. If you can give me a reason why I am wrong I would love to hear it.
Now that angered me a bit and brought my gleeful happy day down to a mediocre sad day, but if I had to rate I won't let people like that make it a bad day so I will still call it a good day. Any how people need a little bit of tolerance in this world to get along we don't all have to like each other but we can't go around hating mass numbers of people we have never met because of somthing that won't affect us or hurt anyone, and being sent to Hell doesn't count because there is freedom of religion here.
Smile of the day: reading that comment on my blog
Thought of the day: I can't believe people thought that was good (my post)
