How the, 'REAL', world works.
09/24/17 at 18:13:10
 
Just to inform, ’Snowflakes’, on how the, ‘REAL’, world works.

ALL  Around, their are  People/Companies,
taking, TREMENDOUS,  Advantage,
Of the,  ‘P.C.’, Correct.

Every DAY.
 (In the last 8 years, it has had  phonimal growth)
       It is up to YOU.  To decide !!!!!!!!!!!

 Just two days ago, My Garage Door Opener failed.
(It was 30+ years old, Can’t get the, ONE,  Little Part I need, because, it is, ‘old’, and the, ‘REGULATIONS” have changed, as to being, , PC  Correct)
And  ‘repair’  companies, (Talked to 3), said they will, ‘Fix’ it, for, 125.00 to 160.00
And in a  Menards flier today, they had a ’Sale’, on a New one for  129.95,
Yet, YESTERDAY, (SAME ONE), was on their web page for  99.95.

No Fault to them, they are, CATERING, to the, ’Snowflakes’,
They are making 30 bucks MORE,
      Just because the, ’Snowflakes’, are to LAZY, to LEARN.


That is, just ONE, example of Several Thousands !!!!!!!!!!


A  Long Time Friend, is building a Cabin up North.
Walls are done,  Wire/Ins/rock, is done.
Now to, Paint or, Paneling?

He got  72, DOORS,   8 Panel Pine, NO  Holes drilled for locks.
At  5.00 each, “BECAUSE HE WAS  PAYING ATTENTION !”.
 (Gee, think that will look better than a, ‘Paneling’, made of fiber board, with, a vinyl wood grain covering ?)

But,  ’Snowflakes’,  OR  the People that greatly, PROFIT, from the Lazy, ’Snowflakes’,
will gladly pay 50 TIMES  MORE.   !!!!!~!~!!!

Keep  Going,  ’Snowflakes’, you are making everyone ELSE, Money !!!!!!!!!!!

         SO.

    'Snowflake, Progressive, Socialist, Fairy Dust Sprinkling, Kum-By-You singers’
  UNDERSTAND,  How  the  REAL,  WORLD,  works.
  Not some, ‘Fairy Dust Sprinkling’, Idea,
which you, YOU,  think it should work !!!!!!!!!!!!!
        PAY  ATTENTION !!!!!!!!!!!

Should it change?    SURE.
But it ain’t gonna happen,

When you, Stand in the Street, and,  CRY !!!!!!!

Read it,  ’Snowflakes’,
 Want  EVERYTHING,

Without,  ‘Working’, for it.

  They just want everything to be, ‘HANDED’,  to them !

(And of Course,  YOU,  Pay !!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

OK,   ‘Definition’, of,  ’Snowflake’.

A  Person that has never worked,
A Person, that gets,  EVERYTHING,  just, HANDED, to them.
A Person who does NOT, understand, how things work.
A Person, who  JUST, “PUPPETS”, what they are,  “Told to say”.
 A Person, who is too LAZY, to, LEARN.
A PERSON, who says  S.S., is a, ‘Entitlement’.
A Person, who says,  ‘We ALL, must pay for the Illegals”.
A Person who says, ’The 1st Adm. is ONLY for me, not YOU’.
A Person, who, gets to Stand in the Street, and CRY,  
    (While, Steeling, Burning, Shouting DEATH  Threats, etc.)

   Just a Few, of,  my,  Definitions, of a, ’Snowflake’.

I limit the term "snowflake" to a person that comes upset, apprehensive or afraid at hearing or experiencing something that varies from their stance of current "political correctness". i.e. college students who believe their world is going to end because a university allows a politically conservative person to speak at a college-sponsored assembly.

Mr  Wizard, TV Show.  Grew up watching, learning, and understanding.
He talked, in a way everyone else talked,
and was understood.
His very clever, ‘experiments’, Looked difficult at first.
Yet, when explained them, they were Not.
The Kids that watch that, Learned !

Replaced by:
Beakman.  Biased on a comic strip.
Bill Nye the Science Guy.  Which was sold as,
     ‘Mr. Wizard meets Pee-wee’s Playhouse.’

So, Mr Wizard, set the bar.
And, Beakman, Bill Nye the Science Guy,
        LOWERED IT !!!!!!

Herbert, (Mr Wizard),  did his Show over 22 YEARS,
(On and Off again), for a time span of, 39 Years.
If you watch them, you will see the, base, ‘knowledge’, of the Kids, getting Less and Less.
              (Should it not be, More and More ??????)

(For those wondering, He was Born in a Town 3 miles away from here.
When I was a Kid,  EVERYBODY,  Knew who he was.
  Probably more than  CA, FL, AK, HI, MA)


Now, the,  ‘DUMBING  DOWN”, of today's Kids.
What about that, FREE babysitter, (A Puppet Show).
Which featured fast moving bright colors,
to capture a child’s attention.

Which at first taught rudimentary things like, 123, ABC,
so Parents and Teachers did  NOT  have to.
Then continued on,
      Not to teach, ‘HOW’, to think.
                     But, ‘WHAT’, to think.


Ya Know, to the, ‘LIST’.    Gonna add:
 “Muppet  Thinking”.        (Or Parroting)

Dude.....

When you lump everyone together, you constrain your ability to dialogue.
Isn't this what is maddening about the PC mindset?

People are NOT absolute one, or the other.

To draw in such a manner only gives you a box of crayons, two of which have only nubs left, while all the other colors are still pristine.

Would you like a ice cream store called, 31 Flavors......as long as its vanilla?  Grin

 I always enjoy seeing how "dumbed down" kids never seems to end up with society and innovation coming to a stop.  

 Kids are so dumb today. Not like the generation that grew up showing their parents ho to program the remote or use the VCR.  Those idiot kids only accomplishment was building things like tablets and the iPhone.

 Stupid kids.

The Computer you are on now, was made, Where?
The ’new’, portable phone you have, was made, Where?

Did someone here, have a, ‘Idea’,
and who/where, was it made it real?

The ‘D ick Tracy’, Watch/Phone, A  Idea from here,
 But built, and put into Practical use, Where?

Now, I do Not know how to hitch up a team of Horses to a Buggy.
Because a new thing, called  the Auto-Mobiel, came about.
and soon many people forgot how to hitch up a team ,
because they simply didn’t need to anymore.

The same as, a person, all their life, Knew, how to hitch up a Team.
And the, ’new fangled’, thing, that did Not need any horses, come along.
They felt their was no need to learn about it.
Leave that, noisy, smelly, complicated, un reliable thing alone.

That is simply Progress.
 Has  NOTHING to do with.
Not  being Taught to Think.

You all have heard the Phrase:
“Knowledge is Power,
Lack of Knowledge,
 is Lack  of Power”


What Nation, ‘USED’, to have very high skill levels, in all sorts of endeavors.
And which Nation, has that ability,  Steadily Declined?

Now, who is it, that wants, everyone treated like Mushrooms?

Who is, saying: (and Teaching)
    ’This POV is Good, you will Believe it.
     That Other one is Bad, you Will, NOT believe it’ ?

Quotes from sites: “U.S. now ranks near the bottom among 35 industrialized nations in Math”
“And once again U.S. students find themselves in the middle of the global pack.”
“U.S. teens still are performing mid-pack relative to their peers around the world on a set of international tests, according to a new report.”


The Phrase:  ‘Dumbing Down America’,
is  NOT  a  Cliché.   It is a Fact.


And of course, their  Brilliant people here,
     JUST as  Everywhere Else.
It is the average of the Country.

I don't remember if it was Bush or Obama, but they were awarding a Medal of Honor to a solider who had died because he jumped on a grenade to tossed into their Humvee to protect his comrades. One thing that stood out was when he said something to the effect (big paraphrase coming up)  "we criticize kids today for this and that, but somehow, the US still produces kids who do things like this"

Watching the Vietnam documentary last night, someone said the exact same thing. So, while we have problems, somehow, someway, this nation still has the ability to produce heroes. The same number as before? Don't know. Are things that much different than a couple generations ago? open to debate I guess.
