The first day of the week: The first day of the week is Monday. It's true that most calendars have Sunday at the beginning of the week, but that's because it's the "day of rest". Sunday is actually the last day of the weekend, making it the last day of the week. Some calendars also have Sunday highlighted, in some way, simply because it is the "day of rest".

Weekends: It really annoys me when people say that Friday is the weekend, because it's not. This was started by people at their places of work who were looking forward to having the weekend off, so they thought to themselves, "hey, Friday is my last day at work this week, so when I get off, it'll be the weekend". If you check any dictionary, you'll see that the weekend is actually only Saturday and Sunday, not Friday. Friday is just the last day of the work week, for most people. It's not the weekend.

Warez: Warez is, basically, full-version software, normally sold in stores or directly from the company that makes it, which has been illegally uploaded to the Internet for other people to download without paying for it. Downloading it is the same as shoplifting. It's a crime, and anyone who does download it is a criminal.

Politics: Anything political bores the crap out of me. Whenever someone starts talking politics, I feel like I'm sitting in a large auditorium, listening to someone drone on for hours about nothing. Frankly, I couldn't care less about politics.

Religion: People can't accept the fact that they're going to die, so they cling to an idea that tells them that they're going to live forever in some happy fantasy land, full of magic and wonder. It all starts with parents telling their kids that there is life after death (an oxymoron if I've ever heard one), and that belief being reinforced by what the rest of society tells them, plus the simple fact that believing they're never going to "really" die is much more preferable than accepting that their "soul" is nothing more than a combination of the subtle sensations produced by the movements of the organs of their body and, largely, electrical discharges within the brain. They convince themselves it's something mystical that will never die. When the kids grow up, they pass on this belief to their kids, and so on and so fourth. This "chain reaction" of wish fulfillment is the reason that 95 percent of the population is unwilling to accept reality for what it is. Simply put, God is Santa Claus for adults. Think about it.

The Internet: The Internet can be a useful tool, as well as a means of entertainment. The information on the net isn't always accurate, though, and there's a lot of pornography and advertising on it. It seems that the net is full of people either trying to get you to spend money for cybersex or to buy their product. About two-thirds of the websites on the net seem to be geared toward earning money for the webmaster.

Kids: I don't like kids. They're nothing but whining babies, always wanting something and screaming and crying when they don't get it. To me, any kid under the age of 10 is a baby. I agree with W.C. Fields when it comes to kids. They should be seen and not heard.
