Bird Box Challenge Equals Idiot

If you are doing the Bird Box Challenge, you are a Grade A idiot. The Bird Box Challenge is inspired by the Netflix movie “Bird Box” in which people do ordinary, daily routines such as cooking and washing the laundry, blindfolded. This is a stupid idea.

Of course, you have the true imbeciles of the world taken it a step further. Some people have attempted to drive and walk out in traffic blindfolded. These folks are what we call “Dumbasses.”

How incredibly stupid must you be? You not only put yourself in danger, but you put the lives of others in jeopardy.

Apparently, so many people have filmed themselves doing the challenge that Netflix put out a statement asking people not to do it. It’s not Netflix’s fault. Some people don’t use common sense, and quite frankly, are not smart.

These are the people that the Amoeba, the single-cell animal, would call a moron. I can hear the Amoeba now, “I thought I was a simpleton, but I am a genius compared to these dimwits.”

Bird Box is a movie, and it is fiction, and a lot of the actions that occur in the movie are unbelievable. Don’t do stupid things based on an unrealistic movie. If you do, you are an idiot.

What’s in a Profane Word?

Recently, a freshman congresswoman received push back from fellow representatives and the media for saying “we are going to impeach that motherfucker.” Her remark was made in front of supporters at a bar, and she was talking about the president. Some people said she shouldn’t use that word to describe the president, while others said it was inappropriate to use profanity in general.

Though I can agree the use of profanity was probably not the right way to go, it amazes me people seem to get upset when profanity is used in such a public forum, particularly by a public official. Consider this: profanity is used on a daily if not hourly basis in television, streaming shows, movies, and video games, and no one seems to blink an eye. Yet, people are a gasp when a congresswoman uses it. Really?

Grow up, people! You are upset about a word but seem to have no problem with the violence we see in movies, TV shows, and video games. I think the violence we see in these entertainment mediums is a lot more detrimental to our society, particularly impressionable children, than a profane word.

Should the congresswoman have used a better word? Of course. But should she have been on the receiving in of  a lot of media flack? No.

Let’s get upset about real things that are having a detrimental effect on our nation and world – violence, racism, sexism, homelessness, sexual abuse, and so many more abuses against humanity.
