Controversy


Blogging.

It is not a career, nor a job, nor a chore—yet a luxury to those literate, educated, and with a passion for what they see fit for the world. These passions can come in so many different forms, whether it’s cooking, reading, math, science, or pictures of cats with seemingly idiotic captions that come across as hilarious and adorable which brings this whole thing around to one of the world’s best topics: controversy!

Everyone happens to love it or hate it (just like everything else in the world), but it remarkably sustains the human race with such efficiency that it has become an everyday part of our lives, whether it’s politics, or debate, or arguing with a friend about the movie you saw last night—controversy is everywhere. There is absolutely no way to avoid it. No matter what, every single day you will encounter it. Say, you might be having a conversation with a friend and they bring up something dreaded among the entire human population—your friend, sadly, enjoys the Twilight Saga (brought to you by Stephenie Meyer), and believes that those chiseled sparkly things are actual, legitimate vampires. Well, now you’re tearing your hair out, contemplating taking a wooden stake to their heart, and you rant and rave about the fact that vampires do not sparkle in the sunlight—they burn. This whole situation has quickly escalated into a debate about how Edward should have killed Bella when she was on her period, and how, physically, it is impossible for Edward to knock that Mary Jane up. In case no one knew, sperm needs a normal body temperature to survive and not die. Also, in case you were confused, Edward wouldn’t be able to sustain, or even achieve, an erection, because if there’s no blood flowing through his veins, then there is no blood to fill the tissue in his dysfunctional penis to reach an erection, which brings this to the fact that Edward can’t physically become sexually excited.

So, after those ramblings, let’s take this back on topic, shall we? All in all, one will never not have an argument. Not a single soul will go through life without becoming consumed in a red cloud of rage, whether it be towards video game lag, that forsaken stain on the carpet, or your in-laws. Controversy is unavoidable. It’s everywhere. So, instead of hiding and being scared of confrontation, go out and have a nice argument with someone. Just not at a bar—that could cause a bar fight.

  1. Thank goodness! You've finally begun posting for reals! I check back here every once and a while to see if it's still abandoned, but today it is resurrected!
