You know what really pisses me off? These idiots who try to bad videogames to violent acts. Like, for instance, the Viginia Tech shootings a few years ago. At one point, they were trying to link the shooting to his playing of Counter-Strike. It just pisses me off that they ignore the millions of people who have played the game and haven't cracked and shot 30 people, but go for the one who has, and then blame it on the game. Videogames are a possible factor in what happened, but what we know happened was that the guy used real guns, which brings me to my point. We need stricter gun-control laws or something. The media needs to stop going for videogames, which have never been proven to send someone over the edge, and go for the constant in all of these shootings. Guns. You know, I don't know a thing about guns or the laws surrounding them, I just know the media needs to get their heads out of their asses, stop speculating, and go for what we KNOW was a factor in these shootings.

Hmmm

Well. Let's talk about censorship. My mom saw me posting a huge post about a really bad time I had getting a haircut tonight, but she made me stop. She thinks I'm being "unreasonable". If you would've read my blog post, maybe you would think so too, but I don't really care. I'm pissed. I was going to shorten it down to a tl;dr format, but even that would probably be deemed "unreasonable" by my mom. I think she's the one being unreasonable, but whatever. Let's just leave it at "I think that two hours is too long to spend getting my hair cut. I have many better things to do than listen to gossip about people that I don't even know, and I don't appreciate being bitched at for not having my driver's permit and for spending 'too much time on the internet'."
