RABID COLLAPSE FANS
I have nothing against
religious folks ( the wife is one, and I like her for more than just
her boobs ). I even eventually over a few decades went from atheist
to agnostic. But the one thing that really sticks in my craw is
religious survivalists. Hey, if you think Jesus is a'coming, that is
a good enough reason to prepare. Whatever motivates you. I fear
those religious folks that want to kill me if I don't believe in
their particular god, but that is alright since pagans and atheists
want to kill me too. No, the issue is when they get uppity.
*
See, Politically
Correct Princesses, “uppity” isn't just a racial slur. Anyone
can get that way and irritate the crap out of me. Those religious
types that think that they can only get into heaven with a stick up
their ass, the dour folks that make it their life's mission to
recreate Hell on Earth ( they wouldn't know a happy time if it bit
them on the butt, so one assumes their idea of Heaven is starched
flour sacks and kneeling in prayer on hard floors ). They suck the
enjoyment out of life.
*
And I get lumped in
with them! The prevailing view is that these religious types want
the apocalypse. How often have you heard about the fundamentalist
Christians wanting a nuclear holocaust under Reagan? Total horse
hockey of course. It is one thing to not care if you die, because
you have places to go and people to see, and quite another to be
suicidal or desirous of yours or others deaths. Yet, the faint stink
of that myth clings to survivalists. It is a way for the Thought
Police to taint those who dare desire independence.
*
( As a slight on topic,
I finally got around to watching Minority Report. I'm glad I never
paid for it. I normally hate Tom and am rarely fond of Spielberg,
but I will say as a movie in general, it wasn't bad at all. I wanted
to keep watching it, so it was well enough crafted. I just saw about
zero in it pertaining to the meme it is related to about those
censoring our thoughts. It was far too “syrupy happy times” that
the director usually employs. Just another happy ending to keep the
masses asleep. Or, perhaps a better way would be to say, it was a
good action film, with a good enough story, but it isn't in the fable
category ).
*
Are you crazy if you
WANT the collapse? Common assumptions are that you an evil little
pig on par with Hitler if you do. You are certifiable. You belong
in a rubber room. Your social superiors only think good thoughts and
want happiness and love for all, a big kumbiya tree hugging hippie
scum glittery unicorn reality and you suck if you think otherwise.
The first problem with the Hippies attitude is that it is just
another one of their illogical brain farts. The only kind they have.
*
Because wishing for
something doesn't make it true. Unless you are a small child, a
writer of self help books or a Progressive. But the Progs are all
about wishful thinking, aren't they? That is their reality. If I
can just wish my way to the fifth gender, it will come true! Right
now, they wish that Whites would just disappear in a genocide so
nothing wrong at all would ever be true again. A perfect utopia (
they are right up there with Skinheads and Nazi Party members in
believing a race war would achieve just that ).
*
The second problem is
that their myth is ridiculous. Not only are we preppers crazy, the
myth also states that we are such losers that we think an apocalypse
will make us someone important for once in our pathetic lives.
Forgotten is that those who believe this myth are far bigger losers
than the worst keyboard commando with a special made desk chair to
support his rotundness. The simple fact is that with seven billion
people on this planet, the winners fit into a football stadium and
the rest of us are losers in many ways. Economic losers, uneducated
losers, mindless propaganda swayed losers. No matter how important
you think you are, you are somebodies loser.
*
There is always
somebody higher on the food chain than you, living large off your
blood, sweat and tears. No matter how many losers you have under
you, you are still somebodies bitch ( except for those few in the
group in the stadiums luxury box seats. The other regular stadium
seat holders are still technically losers but they are so much less
of a loser, they almost aren't. Jesus, have I killed that analogy
yet? ). When you are a loser, and think everyone else but you is a
loser, damn! Are you a friggin loser.
*
I'm a loser, and I know
it ( “Hi!, Jim”, rings the assembled Losers Anonymous group,
slurping highly sugared coffee and chain smoking in order to die just
as quickly as before but with a socially approved habit this time ).
I strive to be LESS of a loser, but I'm comfortable in who I am.
Would an apocalypse make me a winner? Seriously? Only newbies think
that, if at all. Yes, we make fun of the guy with a bunch of AR's
and one case of MRE's thinking he will survive.
*
Yet, again, it takes an
extra special loser to think others are bigger losers and hence they
are more special. It is okay to mock and make fun, that is just
having a good crap and a giggle. Just don't breathe your own
elevator farts and think they smell good ( don't buy your own BS ).
Know your own limitations. Don't be the fat ugly gal actually
believing other girls are fatter and uglier than you. Once you get
into this prepper gig for awhile, you are LESS likely to be happy or
optimistic. The more you know, the less good your odds look.
*
So, I have no illusions
I'll be the tribal head leading my band of merry men to victory.
I'll most likely die way before any of the post-apocalypse problems
replace my White People Problems ( yeah, call me racist and insist
some of your best friends are Black. I married two Mexicans. What
is your proof? ). All my preps are in case I live, not to assure I
do so. I simply don't have the illusions of survival. I'll try-it
is going to be a fun game. I'll probably still lose. So, where does
the “loser wants to be a winner in the collapse” come in for me?
Am I exempt because I don't want the collapse?
*
I don't know, I'm kind
of torn. No collapse means more books I get to read, more BBQ with
cow ( versus rats ), more modern luxuries. On the other hand, I'm
weary of waiting and too many years go by I'll get to the part of
feebleness where my best bet is eating one of my own bullets. That's
no fun! I get no revenge. Do I want it to happen just to kill off
most of society that is firmly against me and wishes me harm? Well,
yes, actually. Does that make me Dr. Evil? It might. I'm not yet
sure. Let's break for today as I mull it over. Continued tomorrow.

note: I recently ordered a ten pack of Swiss 50% wool slacks for a mere $13 ( they are up to $16 now ). They suck! I do NOT blame Sportsman's Guide-they were honest, stating the sizes within small, medium, large were varied. The problem is, their Large is only good for a thirty inch waist and someone with stubby legs. I was disappointed with Lady Luck, not the company. Just be warned. click HERE

Rooting for the Apocalypse is like wanting FIGHT CLUB to become
ReplyDeleteReality. I think a whole lot of people will eat a bullet rather than suffer starvation, like the banker in Alas Babylon.
Thanks for letting us know about the Sportsmans Guide sizing mistake. Surplus can be a bargain, but only if it fits you. OTOH, if you have a tribe of young folks for the Apocalypse - $1.60 for a pair of pants is a deal yo !
Starvation? Got Wheat? Yeah, not sure about the pants. Trying to figure out what I can use the material for. I don't want to donate to the thrift store, but I do need an idea of what to do with it.
DeleteI hear ya bro, one of the first pairs of shoes I bought a couple years after my accident , was a pair of Merrill hiker waterproof tennis shoes. The good shit with real vibrum soles...bad thing is , at that time I was still on heavy pain meds and not thinking clearly nor walking much. I relied on memory for sizing...and bought size elevens...should have looked at my high top Merrill's they are twelves...shit ! Those mofos cost me $125 !
DeleteI still wear the bastards once in awhile tho. They are close enough to wear for a little bit but with my fucked up feet start hurting after an hour.
So they just sit... As a monument of DON'T BUY THINGS WHILE ON DRUGS !! LOL...
Spending that $125 has got to hurt as much as the accident. At least with that you get pain meds. With that empty wallet...On the bright side, with the coming hyperinflation, soon $125 won't buy a Big Mac.
DeleteI get where you’re coming from. A collapse will be ugly. Very ugly. But it’s the only thing that can save America at this point. We need to lose a lot of population, as in about 90%. I fully admit to being one of the many that will likely perish, despite residing in a rural area. But you would need to be in a very rural area, as well as being very well hidden, and very well stocked. The good news is that the social welfare system will collapse, and those that are here illegally, will vacate the country (No hate, but they are a competing tribe, and whether they intentionally do so or not, they do tax the system)
ReplyDeleteThe problem with surplus clothing is that you have to be Tom Thumb for most of it to fit. Usually the sizes that you see offered are small, and clothing is sized differently practically everywhere outside of the US, so when you do find large, it’s still smaller than large. I did manage to snag two brand new pair of 100% wool pants from the sportsman’s guide a while back for the low sum of $17 (Remember, they were 100% wool). They fit, but the only thing that I don’t like about them is that they are a tight weave, as are most dress slacks. In my experience, these tighter weaves hold moisture longer, even being wool.
I never had an issue previously. The Swiss long underwear pants, the East German winter wool pants ( like, hot unless it is below zero thick ), the Spanish coat. Are they breeding their soldiers smaller now, being North African? :)
DeleteOh yeah, I’ve had some of those thick German wool pants, and those things are da bomb! Yes, you do get lucky sometimes, and find the larger sizes in surplus, but it seems like most of the time, they are sized small or medium, more often than not.
DeleteIf I had some sheep and a spinning yarn, I swear, I’d probably take up knitting. But please don’t anyone call me a fag (Note to UK commonwealth members. Here in the US, that’s not a cigarette, or a bundle of sticks all tied up together :D )
Well, I can hardly complain I stayed so lucky for so long. Unless, Sportsman's is getting desperate and had to go back and buy up the sizes it knew wouldn't fit most Americans.
DeleteWhat to do with spare wool?
ReplyDeleteGood Sir, use it for firearm storage!
Gun socks! Repel moisture better than that plastic filth!
Stevelo
That's all there is to it? Just grease it up, throw it in a wool tube. Nothing else? No plastic on the outside of the wool? Please advise, and thank you! :)
DeleteNot prepping is foolish.
ReplyDeleteOf course, we are a bit prejudice :)
DeleteChrist as Savior is the ultimate 'prep' action to take because eternity lasts for eternity, but you are correct about all too many of the self-righteous zealots who preach it.
ReplyDelete"Puritanism. The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, May be happy."
-H.L. Mencken
Ha! That guy was pretty darn smart.
DeleteMore like intermediate storage. Not deep storage. Make a gun rug to protect it from humid Air. Say you have a footlocker with wool blankies. Stick a quick access gun in there all cozy. Yeah. Gun cozies!
ReplyDeleteBefore plastic mountain men would wrap their rifles in their blankets.
