  • long time no blog (warning, contains rant)

    I'M BACK!!!!!!!!

    Anyways, thought i would use this for a change (procrastination 1).

    I'm currently nearing the end of my second year of uni, which has had several ups and downs, and there have been several developments recently, but i have got my final year project underway (planning wise anyways), and have new house mates to live with next year, as well as a new house, but more about that in a later post

    The main purpose of this is for a nice long rant about a specific website, the case in point this time being http://www.laddertheory.com/. Check it out with you want a blow to your self esteem or want to get angry.

    This website is the most preposterous thing i have ever read, it is basically stating that a man and woman can not be friends unless the man is not interested, gay or in a relationship (or any combination of the above), and goes on to try defend that by saying most women are only interested in money and/or power, all men are shallow, and everything is done according to pie charts.

    He (yes, it's a bloke saying this, surprise surprise) then goes on to say that men should never be friends with women unless the man is not interested, and goes on to say that being a friend (the so called friend zone) is the worst thing in the world, and later tries to defend his theory by saying that he is right and everyone else is wrong.

    Oh and guess what else... apparently guys that are just friends with girls are the lowest of the low, that marriage is worse, and that friends with benefits is the best thing to get.

    Well guess what mate... you have just gone and pissed off JIMMY

    i am only going to say this once... JOG ON MATE... everything you are saying is complete and utter Grade A Tripe.
    1)Can't be a friend with women unless i want to sleep with them? Strike 1... i can, and am, friends with many girls, and i do not bring what my second brain thinks into it. There is nothing wrong with being friends with girls, and you can actually learn a few things if you just talk to them.

    2) All women are *insert derogatory word here* (i aint gonna sink down to his level)
    Strike 2: I don't know what women you've met mate, but i can kinda guess where you met them. You've obviously been hanging around the wrong crowds. Once again, women may talk, but you have obviously only been hearing the bad, or what you want to here. Guys should listen to most things that women say, not just the part about them.

    3) Nice guys will never get laid, and be stuck lonely
    Strike 3: *slow clap* well done... that is the most stupid, pointless, shallow, derogatory, prejudiced, stupid thing i have ever heard, though that doesn't take much doing. I'm a nice enough guy, helpful, kind, and one thing, if i had to choose between sleeping with my current friends and loosing them, or not sleeping with them ever, i would always choose the second option, mainly cause... SEX AINT EVERYTHING...

    And on that topic, can i just say this, there are more things in life than procreation, such as the tweeting of birds, the flowers in the meadows, video games, drinking, friends and fun. It's people like Dallas Lynn (the creator of this theory) that make people feel like crap, and honestly, i expected more solid data and results from a man of a pseudo science (sociology), and can appreciate that it is his opinion, but his opinion can not be generalized.

    Jimmy out, hopefully this is the last of my rants

  • first week of uni

    *blows dust off blog*

    Long time since i've been on here.... been busy, seeing as i actually got a job over the summer.

    Anyways, settled back into uni well, changed from legal studies to environmental conservation, which is more interesting by far, and no major hick-ups... do have one proble though...

    In intro forensic science, there are distinct groups... there's me (in a group of my own ), then there's the first years, who are, well y'know, first years, then theres those on the intro forensic course that are there to learn (those who don't ask many questions, and sit with only the people they know), then there are those who don't know when the bloody hell to keep their mouth shut, how to keep their opinions to themselves, and you don't know how in the bloody hell they got onto the second year. This was apparent in todays lecture on environmental forensics, in which they kept on questioning the relevance... well, i'm on the course with real job prospects, and they are on a course which everyone is doing at the moment.

    Rant over... back soon
