What’s up everybody? Welcome to The Mind Of Zander, where I’ll be blogging about many different things, some you may like, and some you don’t. Let’s just say, there’s something for everybody.
Well, where do I begin?
The weather’s cold, the sky’s dark, and the house is in one place. One of my classmates came back from Belarus today with a cut on his knuckle. When I asked him about it, the guy simply replied “The country was so depressing, it makes you emo.”
If he said that 30 years ago, he’s a dead man.
Nowadays...this kind of stuff would make the evening news! I don't know if that proves how embarrasingly bad news stations as a whole have become but you have to admit - nowadays, an average man gets home from his 9-to-5 and changes the channel to CTV/A-Channel/<insert news channel here> and isn't sure if he's watching informative television, or sadistic torture.
The three main topics that make up an evening newscast, you ask? Hypocrisy, stupidity, and 50 percenters. A.k.a THE SAME THING.

I also sold some chocolates today. Came across some people who didn’t like caramel. You’ve gotta be kidding me. That’s usually a major selling point in these things in the first place! The almonds I understand, people have nut allergies. But caramel? Man…even Cristiano Ronaldo wouldn’t complain about such travesties.
On second thought...maybe he would.

Then there’s always the type of people who ask for one and promise (or so they believe) to pay you later. Thanks, but no thanks. And people wonder why the economy in Europe is plummeting about as fast as Metal Mario falling off of an airplane? Well, this is your answer. Too many I.O.U’s that don’t disclose a return address.
A night in Ireland won't quite be the same in this. Before the country's recent money crisis, people would fight each other in the streets and then buy beers together, all in one night. Now...I don't think they'll even get to the beers, thus leaving it all on the streets - the blood, that is.
Case in point - a massacre waiting to happen.

Here’s an interesting question: Would you hire a teenage computer repairman to fix your damaged computer – if that same person just recently installed his power supply upside-down on his own computer? Get back to me later on that.
I’ve also got an Asian buddy of mine I see every morning. Smart kid, but he’s gambling away his future. How, you ask? Instead of making websites, he consistently eats away his time playing Shoddy Battle, a popular Pokemon simulator. He’s got a complex flash website due in about 2 weeks, and he hasn’t completed anything. Pack your luggage my friend, cuz eventually, you're gonna be...

Sorry, I had to. I don’t like watching my friends fail, to be honest, but he’s well on his way.
I’m sure many of you have known a girl who tries to convince people that she isn’t a slut or a whore, but her actions, looks and personality prove otherwise. This calls for a lot of facepalming and, when they show their true colors, the need to shout:
Oh, everybody knew that, alright – except for the slut, that is.

Back to the power supply fiasco – it has to be mentioned twice, as it’s fairly significant. Oh yeah, isn’t paper a fire hazard? That’s what the resident genius used to hold his upside-down power supply. One bad thing leads to another, to a point where it becomes so moronic it’s laughable.
Moral of the story - make sure you hire someone qualified. ALWAYS.
Something I love about society - paranoia. It's everywhere, ranging from the Korean Peninsula, where war could break out at any moment, and England, who may have had their 2018 World Cup bid jeopardized by the soccer-crazed British tabloids.

North Korea's no secret. Everyone's known that this shambles of a country is being run to the ground by a midget given far too much leeway. They've also been responsible for crazy biased news stories, such as praising their "dear" leader, glamourizing the "workers", and twisting real-life headlines and propaganda to the point where they become absolutely hilarious - and maddening.
Sadly, this is not the case. There's only one thing that they're good at, and that's hiding the truth.
Keeping on topic about hiding the truth...the thing about tabloids and the paparazzi is that they don't care what they write or investigate about, as long as it's for personal gain. They'll even frame each other for these stories. Which brings to mind this:
People = Time x Money
Time = Money
Power = Money
Money = (sqrt)Evil
Money^2 = Evil
Money^2 = People
People = Evil
If you didn't know already, time is money, and money is power. Money is also seen as the root of all evil, while by nature, people are inherently evil.

That's all my mind has to offer today. Check back tomorrow for more clever insight!
