"Hope and change?"
 
Fuck that. I'm voting for despair and stagnation.

There is hope and change but by the time fairness will prevail everyone who's posting on this forum will probably be dead and buried.

I hope to change my shoes when I get home.

Hope and change is only as good as what it is you want to change and what you hope to change it into.

they are adidas.

I hope I get an erection and then I will change my condom.

floatingslowly 06.23.2008 10:35 AM

gotta tell ya, that's pretty gross.

I remember when I was a nirvana fanatic, I would read over that. I am over it.

hope only serves to make you miserable.

Savage Clone 06.23.2008 12:29 PM

Hope is for the hopeful.
By which I mean "suckers."

People who only hope are dumb, in order for change one must initiate it. Not wait for it to happen.

You mean like making slingshots "for when the revolution comes," right?

hope is the one thing keeping many huamns from comminitng suicide, and that is a good thing.

the opposite of hope is not hopelessness, it is despair, which is a horrible emotion

despair eats it.

fuck despair and his acolytes.

anyway for certain readings the hope in pandora's box was also a terrible evil.

expecting only good things to come is clearly delusional-- but having the expectation that one's efforts & strategies will pay off is what keeps us going.

let's roast the hopeless & eat their innards-- so they can be good for something.

ha ha ha.

no, seriously.

despair is for losers.

!@#$%! 06.23.2008 01:13 PM

thinking about it, there are instances when there is nothing left to do and you know the bullet is coming to your forehead and you have to accept it as the reality it is-- such situations are hopeless because there is no realistic "good outcome".

but that doesn't mean you crap your pants.
