We All Get What We Give

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on">Hola Y’all! Man, social media is being completely overrun with deep thoughts. People keep posting all these sweet, funny, cute, introspective quotes and sayings all over the place and I, for one, have had enough. I’m thinking that it’s just about time to start responding to some of them…<br /><div class="MsoNormal"><o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMQxHjwKA3sf1QHFLhkjethefd__yxfdErknfT6Co7YbqRLEp3jjsq_WnjKtrBwWk02gUaav_IOQBeyPAAPbBeUmm5GWeAJJirnhQmmxkXwJr5919OIgyuW9D1cXApHRn0exuGmN8-uog/s1600/Really+Deep+Thoughts.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMQxHjwKA3sf1QHFLhkjethefd__yxfdErknfT6Co7YbqRLEp3jjsq_WnjKtrBwWk02gUaav_IOQBeyPAAPbBeUmm5GWeAJJirnhQmmxkXwJr5919OIgyuW9D1cXApHRn0exuGmN8-uog/s320/Really+Deep+Thoughts.jpg" width="192" /></a></div><i><b>“There’s a degree of difficulty in dealing with me.”</b></i>  To which I want to reply: “Eh, probably not worth it.” <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“If you don’t fight for what you love, don’t cry for what you lose.”</b></i> What if you do fight and still lose? Can you cry then? Probably not you insensitive asshole! <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“Just because I let you go doesn’t mean that I wanted to.”</b></i> If you didn’t want to you wouldn’t have. Don’t give me that “I had to” crap. You watch too man romantic comedies for your own good. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“Standing up for yourself … Even if no one is on your side.”</b></i> This one is usually posted by people who aren’t under any kind of “attack” and have oodles and oodles of people on “their side.” <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><i>“Prove to me you’re not like the rest.”</i> </b> Yeah, well why don’t YOU have to prove to ME that YOU’RE not like the rest? <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“Even the nicest people have their limits.”</b></i> Yes we do and if people don’t stop posting these “deep thoughts” all then you’re gonna reach MY LIMIT! <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“Sometimes we are like stars. We fall to make someone’s wish come true.” </b></i>What kind of asshole hopes someone falls? That’s just rude. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Then you’ve got all of the <i><b>“What Women Deserve”</b></i> quotes. Oh God these drive me so fucking crazy! <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><i>"If you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best."</i><o:p></o:p></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><br /></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“If they don’t appreciate you, they don’t deserve you.” <o:p></o:p></b></i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><br /></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“A woman who doesn’t ask for anything deserves everything.”<o:p></o:p></b></i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><br /></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><i>“If you still carry her bags, open the door for her, tell her she’s beautiful and show her respect, you’re a REAL MAN.” </i><o:p></o:p></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><b><br /></b></div><div class="MsoNormal"><i><b>“Either you treat your girl right or sit back and watch someone else do it.” </b><o:p></o:p></i></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">And on and on and on! Holy moly people! Enough with this crap! You know why these piss me off so much? No, not because they’re true, but because they present things like “love and respect” as something ONLY women deserve. There is no acknowledgement that love and respect are two-way streets. You have to give to get, ya know? <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">If a guy posts a satirical “<a href="http://news-these-days.blogspot.com/2011/10/men-get-screwed-and-women-are-liars.html" target="_blank">Men get Screwed and Women are Liars</a>” he gets crushed with comments and emails calling him a sexist and misogynist and worse. However, if a woman were to post a “Women get Screwed and Men are Liars” article she would be celebrated. Mommy Bloggers love to post articles about how horrible their husbands are and how terrible they get treated by their husbands and all that. What happens when they do that? Everyone goes to the comment section to trash the hell out of a man they’ve never met. Everyone just takes the Mommy Blogger’s word for it. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">The truth is there are a lot of really shitty guys out there who treat their girlfriends and wives like absolute crap. Those are the guys that have a line of women chasing after them. Also, there are a lot of really good, decent, loving and respectful guys out there. Those are the ones women mock and dismiss with a chuckle and wave of their hand. <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Okay, I don’t know where the previous paragraph came from. Anyway, my point here is, and I do have one, that maybe if we focused on treating others with the love and respect THEY deserve, we’ll find we get the love and respect we keep DEMANDING. Maybe? It’s worth a try, right? <o:p></o:p></div><div class="MsoNormal"><br /></div><div class="MsoNormal">Oh, and for God’s sake … Enough with all the deep thoughts!

Daylight Saving Time 2013: 5 Things You Didn't Know

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"><img alt="PHOTO: Daylight Savings Time" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/Technology/gty_daylight_savings_tips_clock_jef_130308_wb.jpg" /><br /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px;">Daylight saving time started at 2 a.m. this morning and will run through Nov. 3. So while you lost an hour during the switch, you gained an extra hour of daylight. Here are five things you might not know about daylight saving time.</span><br /><img alt="PHOTO: Daylight Savings Time Tips" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/Technology/gty_daylight_savings_tips_energy_saver_jef_130308_wb.jpg" /><br /><br /><div class="listItemHeader" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"><table style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tbody style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><td class="title" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Daylight Saving Time Was Conceived as a Way to Save Energy</strong></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">In the U.S., daylight saving time was first used during World War I to conserve resources. It was reinstated again during World War II until Sept. 1945. The Uniform Time Act of 1966 created a standardized system to observe daylight saving time.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">The Department of Energy studied the energy savings in 2008. They found that during daylight saving time, U.S. electricity use decreased by 0.5 percent per day, which added up to 1.3 billion kilowatt-hours, enough to power about 122,000 average U.S. homes for a year.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"><img alt="PHOTO: Daylight Savings Time Tips" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/Technology/gty_daylight_savings_tips_march_start_jef_130308_wb.jpg" /></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"></div><div class="listItemHeader" style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"><table style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tbody style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><td class="title" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Daylight Saving Time Begins in March and Ends in November</strong></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">From World War II until recently, the seven-month period of daylight saving time in the U.S. ran from April until mid-October.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">But in 2007, Congress adjusted daylight saving time to begin three weeks earlier and end one week later, a move they hoped would help save energy. At the time, they pointed to the fact that longer daylight in the evening hours reduced the need to turn on lights in homes at night.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"><img alt="PHOTO: Daylight Savings Time Tips" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/Technology/gty_daylight_savings_tips_non_observing_states_jef_130308_wb.jpg" /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"></div><div class="listItemHeader" style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"><table style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tbody style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><td class="title" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Not All US States and Territories Observe Daylight Saving Time</strong></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">The majority of the U.S. loses an hour of sleep when the time switch occurs. With the exception of the Navajo Nation in the northeastern part of the state, Arizona has not been moving their clocks forward like the rest of the country each spring.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">According to an Arizona Republic editorial in 1969, the reasoning behind not springing forward was due to the heat.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">"The above data [sunrise and sunset times and average temperatures during the summer months from the U.S. Weather Bureau] clearly show that we must wait until about 9 p.m. DST to start any night-time activity such as drive-in movies, moonlight rides, convincing little children it's bedtime, etc. And it's still hot as blazes!" the editorial stated according to the <a href="http://www.azlibrary.gov/links/daylight.aspx" style="color: #336699; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;" target="external">Arizona State Library, Archives and Public Records.</a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">Aside from Arizona, Hawaii, American Samoa, Guam, Puerto Rico, Northern Marianas and the Virgin Islands do not move their clocks forward.</div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"><img alt="PHOTO: Daylight Savings Time Tips" src="http://a.abcnews.com/images/Technology/gty_daylight_savings_tips_traffic_jef_130308_wb.jpg" /></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"></div><div class="listItemHeader" style="margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"><table style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tbody style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><td class="title" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Daylight Saving Time Helps Prevent Traffic Injuries and Reduces Crime</strong></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">The extra hour of daylight has been credited for preventing traffic injuries and reducing crime as "people travel to and from school and work and complete errands during the daylight," and "more people are out conducting their affairs during the daylight rather than at night, when more crime occurs," according to the <a href="http://www.dot.gov/regulations/daylight-saving-time" style="color: #336699; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none;" target="external">U.S. Department of Transportation.</a></div><div style="margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;"><br /></div><br /><br /><br /><iframe height="360" id="kaltura_player_1362961986" src="http://cdnapi.kaltura.com/index.php/kwidget/wid/1_8nbpabge/uiconf_id/3775332/st_cache/62456?referer=http://abcnews.go.com/Health/video/daylight-savings-spring-forward-feeling-fine-18677847&autoPlay=false&addThis.playerSize=392x221&freeWheel.siteSectionId=nws_offsite&closedCaptionActive=true&addThis.playerSize=640x360&closedCaptionsOverPlayer.fontsize=18" style="border: 0px solid #ffffff;" width="640">Unfortunately your browser does not support IFrames.</iframe> <div style="font-size: x-small; margin-top: 0; text-align: left;"><br /><div class="listItemHeader" style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; padding: 0px;"><table style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tbody style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><tr style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><td class="title" style="font-family: arial; font-size: 18px; font-weight: bold; line-height: 23px; margin: 0px; padding: 8px 0px 0px; vertical-align: middle;"><strong style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Time Changes Can Impact Body</strong></td></tr></tbody></table></div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">It's just one hour but the time shift and stress caused by time changes can be bad for the body. Researchers in Sweden reported in 2008 in the New England Journal of Medicine that the number of heart attacks jumps during the period immediately following time changes, and that those vulnerable to sleep deprivation should be extra careful.</div><div style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: georgia, 'times new roman', serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 23px; margin-bottom: 22px; padding: 0px;">"More than 1.5 billion men and women are exposed to the transitions involved in daylight saving time: turning clocks forward by an hour in the spring and backward by an hour in the autumn," wrote Imre Janszky and Rickard Ljung, health and welfare researchers in Sweden.
