Dude does your life suck so much you want the world to end?
I'll be glad when I finally have the money to move to Japan where I'll have my own Gesha posse and be barking Orders at programmers to get it done right.

I don't hate my life Bemani! I just loathe the fact that a good majority of the ppl in our nation today (not all) have grown up since the cold war and don't realize there's more to our freedoms than jerkin' off, playing video games (as much as I love them) and fuckin' some chick in the backseat of your car. Today the youth (my own generation at that!) couldn't give two shits about where we've been as a nation... who won what... and can't possible fathom having to shed blood for what they think is owed to them. At best ppl get the bulk of their history from Hollywood movies that show where we've been, then go right back to being self centered assholes. 9-11 is a good example. So many ppl saw this as a tragedy... the nation came together, NOW one year later the ppl who died in the twin towers, the pentagon and the "Let's Roll" Crew are remembered as a simple Goddamned day. Other than the ppl who actually lost loved ones, it's back to worrying about bullshit, handing over more rights to federal agencies (GOD forbid ppl get involved themselves in their respective communities to see how to better defend and react in a crisis) for the illusion of "feeling safe". Thus the only heroes by the rationale of the way ppl act now are the "Let's Roll" guys, cause everyone suddenly is a patriot, waves flags but do they really think about what was lost. NO! As much as I'm all for your offish game *Chick Fight* Bemani, it's your way of thinking that does tick me off. Run for the hills... it'll be better elsewhere. Oh I'm glad an entire generation in WWII went to root for me and everyone else... BUT NOT ME! That's your mantra and it makes me fucking sick!
So no, my life isn't so bad I want the world to end smart ass! I just grew up during the tail end of the cold war, was studying how to survive everything from a conventional attack of the Russians to Nuclear Fallout at age 10. What were you doing at age 10? Since then I've somewhat assimilated (not right choice of words... got along with) our present day Post-Cold War citizenry who don't get it. In fact if you didn't come up that way, or have served in the military you probably won't. There is valor in doing your duty man for better or worse... and man's role has always been a bloody one. Do I want the world to end? NO! But do I think man can get back his pride as a man, and not be a lame fuck... YES! I know many will dissagree with me and that's fine, that's part of the right you have as an American. But know this, those who would not understand nor fight for their freedoms don't deserve it and SHOULD have it yanked from under them.
