I have been told that girls aren't passionate about anything to be able to talk about football. Or girls don't know enough about football to talk about it. And it's "obvious" that girls should be quiet at all time while the football is on.
All that nonsense set aside, I am a girly girl, and I like football. I don't know who many of the players are, I don't even know all of those in the team I support. I don't know who plays in what position. when they are all running around the pitch I cannot tell who is a defender, or who is a midfielder, or even who is who. I give myself some credit, I understand the offside rule, and I can tell precisely which man running around the pitch is the ref, and who the goal keeper's are...!!!
BUT
Football fascinates me. And no, it's not because there are lots of men running around, sometimes looking a bit dishy, I'm not a leg watcher. what it is, is that these people, and I say people, because women play too, run around after this object. I cannot get over how quickly they must react all the time, and how wherever they are they know exactly who is free, and precisely where they are, or where they will be.
The other thing about football, is that you can be sat in a room full of people, and you'll have nothing in common, but suddenly someone says something about football, and the whole room at least has an opinion, even if they don't like or follow football.
That's why I like it. The skill, the power and the speed of knowledge these guys have!! And yes, it is mainly guys, women's football...I'm sorry to say it, just isn't quite the same!!

Bet your herbal remidies on this.....
Crap-detecting really isn't my forte....and what alarms me about what this guys says is that there is stuff that's so completely obvious about what's happening in the news everyday, and the less people people react to it, the more easily it can happen....
And I wonder why we don't make a stand...EVER. It's a small handful of people that have this power and control, against how many others. De popularisation just means that there are less people to fight.
But what I don't understand about the de popularisation thing is that if there is a will and a want to de popularise, why the Pope dude doesn't say yes to contraception....this makes less babies....however I suppose it also allows more disease to be spread, and lets face it, most of those in power probably get off on killing innocent people who are just living life and do their daily duties.
Have a look at this video if you wish....
It's worrying really, the extent of things that could happen. I'm not saying it's all true, because it might not be....but if it is....
That's the trouble with everything that's available, how do we know what's truth....I mean all these people talk about things that are going to happen, and the conspiracies behind things, but what if things weren't made to happen the way they have, and just fell into it...
Ok, I'm one of these people that finds it hard to believe that one person can stab another in the back, I don't even like to bitch about people, other than to myself, but what really gets me, is how a hand full of people, can completely do over the general people. But then there's a little something inside me that says....well actually, yes they can!!

It's likely to be deleted
So I thought I'd direct you to this post..... and my comment on the subject, being as it was sort of what I was blogging about at the time I decided to have a look at this post....
You've probably told this before, but how did those bloodlines come about?! How did so few people gradually have so much control?! And how did people start realising this through reading books...and then it all exploded on the internet, and suddenly there are conspiracy theorists all over the place that state all this stuff after having done oodles of research, but how did it all start? That's what I wanno know. I don't think Wikipedia can answer this one.
Even if these blood lines came about from looking at stars, how did a few people think that if this, this and this happens, in many years time we can have a complete control over the masses?! How did it all come about?! I know about secret societies and things, but something must have happened surely?! Does it not give you a headache. I try to ignore what's happening in the news, but sometimes intrigue gets the better of me. And sometimes I watch things on this godforsaken internet thing, and it drives me insane.
Anyway, in response to what you have pointed out, nobody would take a conspiracy theorist seriously unless they had done a LOT of research, and still many don't, but for their claim to have any bit of authenticity, they would have had to have had a lot of real info in their. So yes, their claims can be true. People are that nasty, and there is always someone out to get someone because people are territorial creatures, just as much as animals, but it's just because of "law and order" that nobody notices it. They think we are lovely wonderful civilised people that watch TV, and sit and drool, but there's far more to people than what is thought. We are animals at the end of the day, and I hope this being controlled business backfires big time, because I think it's such a shame to have this unnatural burden placed upon our souls.
Don't meddal with what you do not understand, and people were not made to be understood. People were not made to use toilets, they were made to sh!t and p!ss in the f**king trees, then there was some magic, and the evil of the world was revealed. EVILness and DECEIT....that's all these is to be found, and it'll never change, because in effect we are animals, and it's a dog eat dog world, and like any other creature we are bound to the law of survival of the fittest!!
Maybe I'm talking nonsense, it's just my opinion...But those fuckers that think they have control really bloody make me sick to the back teeth...I'd quite like to poke them in the eye...or, being evil, do something much more sinister!!
What is naural about the life we lead?!
People are not, any longer, natural. Maybe you would argue that it's a "natural" evolutionary process that's brought us to this point, maybe it is, but it's all so unnatural it's uncanny.
I've spent so much time divulging into the philosophies and theories behind our evolution. I've look at religion, and the similarities between so many that are not linked, and I wonder to myself how we got here.
Things make my head hurt. They really do. Things like how somebody was sweeping the floor once and thought, if only I had a sucky tube this would be so much easier, and off to work they got working on their new invention. Also, forget what came first, the chicken or the egg?, the question on my mind is what came first, the can or the can opener?
I just wonder how we got to this point. This point where we drive rather than walk/run and where we text rather than talk.
What really gets me though, is how did paper start creating money?! Where did the IMF come from?! Who on Earth thought it would be a good idea?! And those bloodlines...well how did they come about?! Why did somebody suddenly decide that they would take charge, and suddenly own everyone on the planet?! Oh it makes me so angry. The only part of life that really is natural is the conception of a new being. Unfortunately there is so much about the birth now that is unnatural, that you can hardly say it is natural. I mean, it's ok for someone to help pull the baby out, but to give medication to get your body into labour and what not....does that antelope in the wild fields of Africa get given that...?! Erm, no I don't think she does.
But at the end of the day, fundamentally we are all animals. We are as territorial as any other, and it's ok for a mass of people to fight over one piece of land that may or may not belong to them in the first place, on behalf of one man, but it's not okay for a man to fight and kill a man over a woman like deer.....
You see someone in their wisdom, who I'll refer to as god, as "he" seems to pop up a lot in those religious-type books, decided that to keep people good and nice and lovely and wonderful beautiful people, we should have laws to govern them, and those laws will mean that us great natural beings with natural feelings and natural behaviour patterns natural instincts and natural urges would live so much better together.
I suppose in some ways, yes, we do, but at our own expense. To what expense has this had an effect on people?! The world is full of repressed and repressors. And due to the wonderful great monnetary society we have we now spend our lives living in fear of the big people we owe money to. Nobody talks, nobody trades, they buy buy buy and show off their possessions....and fuel the people that control and destroy the masses.
And there are mental effects on us too. I long to live in a tree house and live off the Earth...funny thing being, is that I'd need money to go and live a natural life. It's not unnatural for animals to build houses and shelter, beavers do it, birds do it, but bricks and cement, made by man, to house man, what's it all about?! We shelter from the rain. Skin is waterproof, and it was made waterproof for a reason. Think about all this mind-numbing entertainment that's available these days, I'm sure, had there been none of this stuff we'd have plenty of things to occupy our time with, something like.....surviving the dog eat dog world. That's why some are born weaker than others. The weaker would be sacrificed, perhaps not intentionally, to ensure the survival of their kind. Look at Zebras and Antelope, they get killed by lions, and it's generally the young or injured that are got, but it allows for the survival of the species.
And then there's the species, that in a natural world, would be our predators, and feeding on us, and yet because we've made some mechanical thing to blast of their heads, it's us who have ensured the almost extinction of their species. In a natural world I'm sure it would be the other way around.
I'm rambling nonsense as usual, but it makes sense to me. I just cannot work out for the life of me how we came to this point. This point whereby we are all screaming out for something more than we have, yet many think they have everything they ever wanted [the playstation/big tv/laptop etc]. The thing is, none of this stuff matters, it's irrelevant. There is an underlying knowledge in people that the way we live, isn't right, and isn't natural.

The customer service illusion
I have been unfortunate enough to work in the customer services department of a large retail company, and have noted ever since a few things about the illusion of "good customer service".
The problem now, with customer service is that PEOPLE are transformed from living breathing creatures with a brain and a personality to dull lifeless ROBOTS. These corporate companies give their staff a script, a script that they must stick to, and god forbid what might happen if they skip a word. Do these companies not acknowledge that not only do the advisers have their own brain, the people on the end of the phone have their own brain too?
People cannot be given scripts to follow, because these scripts do not suit every customer that's on that phone.
I recall having to say sorry to every customer, and repeat what they had told me, so that they "knew I was listening". If I didn't listen, would I be able to resolve the problem? Not without asking a million questions and really irritating the customer right?
If the robot starts the query solving with the words "I'm sorry" not only does it bring the tone of the conversation down, but it puts some customers in the position where they feel the need to say something like "it's ok, I know it's not your fault".
Personally I feel the approach should be made to keep the conversation positive and helpful. So maybe saying something like, ok I'll look into that for you...and yadda yadda yadda, bla bla bla. If the customer service adviser knows anything about people, then they will be able to recognise when sorry is appropriate. The worst part about these "sorry" words, is that the adviser feels uncomfortable saying it, sorry is a difficult thing to say when quite frankly you don't give a sh!t if their nightie arrived in time for their weekend away or not. The customer also senses that it's false, they sense that they are talking to a robot, and not a person.
I don't know which chump thought that a script would be a good idea. People have brains, they have personalities, so my god, let them bloody use it, and stop giving me nonsense info every time I call!!
