Yeah, I said it. Our social system and the values it creates are pretty inefficient. People live their lives thinking they’re making their own choices and they know how to solve problems. Unfortunately, very few understand science and even fewer can practice science independently of their values. Of course there are times where we don’t […]

Assertive vs Aggressive
More and more these days people are become passive-aggressive. Passive-aggressive people tend to avoid anything that seems somewhat close to a confrontation, yet explode when they’re cornered. That’s where the term “passive-aggressive” comes from. Too many people these days are afraid to simply say “no” when they’re not interested in something because they fear what consequences may […]

The Quality of EVERYTHING Suffers Without Money
Just think about it for a second. Money is how we get our resources. Whether it’s basic necessities or luxuries. Without money, we are limited in not only food, water and shelter, but to health care as well. The stress related to not having enough money or being in debt is pretty devastating to our […]
Why is Communication so Hard?
The point of communication is getting your point across to the other person and have it interpreted the way you mean it. If the person misinterpreted your words or gestures, then you’ve failed at communicating with them effectively. Our modern language is outdated and almost everything is subject to interpretation. The fact that sarcasm exists […]
What’s More Important, Love or Money?

When people are with someone they love or are doing something they love, they feel incredible joy. However, this is a double edged sword. If that person loses the person or thing […]
Being Fat Doesn’t Feel Good
It’s unfortunate, but fat people aren’t pleasant to look at. It may sound cruel, but it’s a harsh reality. Fat people begin to feel the way they’re being treated and they are treated like shi’t. People don’t respect fat people because they’re conditioned to think of fat people as lazy, nasty slobs. Actually, being […]
Why is There Money for war but None for Education?
It’s only logical that money should be going towards education instead of towards war, right? WRONG. First off let me say that our education system sucks. I’d like to see more money and attention go into it, but because of the nature of money and our economic system today, it isn’t a wise business decision. […]
How I Lost Weight with McDonalds
It actually wasn’t that hard. Once I realized the science behind weight loss, I was able to customize my meals effectively, no matter where I was eating. I learned that simple carbohydrates are the primary culprit when it comes to weight loss. By simply avoiding sugary sodas, grains, starches and condiments (ketchup, honey mustard, BBQ […]
Bullshit Physical Therapy
The thing that gets me most about physical therapy is how much bullshi’t is involved in it these days. There are people out there with legitimate problems, yet the practice is outdated. People are usually sent to physical therapy to rehabilitate a broken bone, torn muscles/ligaments or even a dislocation. Rest, massages and pain killers […]
