Why can't people just chill the fuck out?

A bit general, but in all seriousness.

    Abso-friggin-lutely !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Actually, I don't watch the news much, it freaks me out too much.

    Coming through the Easter break, traditionally here in Oz, people go beserk, teh cities empty in a mad lemming like rush to campgrounds all over the country, and way too many people get killed or injured in raod carnage. Every year I stay home and lock the gates and think, why can't people just chill the fuck !!

    I am myself
    Like you somehow
    I'll ride the wave
    Where it takes me
    I'll hold the pain
    Release me

    I have to agree, most of the time.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    What news? The news barely exists anymore on TV. It's slowly being replaced by entertainment. When the top headlines for days are about Britney Spears' shaved head or who is Anna Nicole's baby's daddy actual news has taken a back seat. I say turn off the TV and pick up a newspaper. That's the only place where true reporting of the news exists.

    or human nature? people were doing "evil" things before religion ever existed. anyways, religion is just a construct of human nature anyways, which is why it can be so evil ;)

    With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and
    evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

    I believe that it's not religion, but arrogance that proves to be the root of all evil. Putting oneself first consistantly.

    i think that to myself 90% of my day, not just when im watching the news. we're all in such a fucking hurry to go nowhere and do something meaningless. our lives revolve around deadlines set by other people.

    I agree with soulsinging. People need to learn how to chill out. I see people getting upset because of the most stupid reasons.

    Not really. It's just used as an excuse.

    Yes.....I also wonder how most of the news people actually got through school and hired....the easy answer is their looks. :rolleyes:

    Watching the news annoys me. I prefer to read about news on the internet.
    The only people we should try to get even with...
    ...are those who've helped us.

    Right 'round the corner could be bigger than ourselves.

    funny stuff right there. seriously though, i agree with the original post. the world would be a better place if everybody would just drink some beer, watch some porn and relax a little bit. problem is, some people want too much power, and some groups are filled with too much hatred. one of our problems as a society is wrongly thinking that other people want peace and happiness like we do.

    I have come to the conclusion that everything you see on TV should be viewed strictly as entertainment.

    I agree, and that goes for the news stands too.
