About This Blog

What is the point of this blog?
The short answer is, there is no point.

The long answer is, it is an unoriginal blog full of complaints usually, hence being unoriginal. The idea being that I can say what ever the hell I want on this blog without being criticised for it in a way where it will matter. I am open to criticism, but before you try to rip me a new one, just know that a lot of what I have said, saying and will say may be contradictory or just not make any sense at certain points. I'm human, my view points change and maybe something I said a long time ago will contradict something I will say later because I am still growing and learning as I go. There is no such thing as a "grown up", there are just big kids with different priorities. In a nut shell this is a place for me to work out my demons and get my frustrations out. If you don't like what you are reading, you are free to not read it. I'm not doing this for anyone else but myself. I am not an attention whore and I don't seek internet fame.

Why "The Coward's Way to Practice Freem of Speech"?
I wasn't trying to be witty or cute with the title, it is just the truth. I am a coward for hiding my identity while saying the things I really think so I can protect myself from YOU ALL OUT THERE. It is the only way for me to practice my freedom toleration of speech with a clear conscience and be less afraid. I am not really afraid of being found out because I am no one important (yet) and I am keeping everything ambiguous. All names and sexes of people on this blog cannot be taken for granted, I am changing them to protect myself.

I think it is very sad that while growing up we are told (if you weren't told then you will hear it now) "Don't be afraid of what people think, you shouldn't care..." or something to that effect. I quickly learned growing up you have to be very fearful of what other people think because it can cost you your life. When I am being me outside of this blog, at work or on the street, I have to use a filter for my thoughts and it kills me because I sometimes cannot say what I really think. In a sense I can play people like a musical instrument because I know what not to say and what to say. I gain trust and confidence of pretty much everyone I know rather easily because I am easy to get along with. However all of that can change and be destroyed when the perception people have of me in mind is ruined when they see or learn of the true me.

We all have a facade or are good at being guile. I just happen to be very good at it.

Freedom of Speech Really Means Tolerated Speech
I don't believe in this false notion of "Freedom", there is no such thing. There are tolerated amounts of things. I am in no way saying we should all be free to do what ever we want because that is just unrealistic and uncomfortable. However I do believe that we should not LIE to ourselves either and just call things what they are. Since we are not allowed to say what ever we want, then we don't have a freedom it is a direct contradiction to say, "You are allowed to say what ever you want, except this and this, those are taboo." That is retarded, so we have Tolerated Speech.
