It's about time we get a moon base

It has recently came to my attention, I guess, well more I just thought about this matter just before. That even though we had man on the moon about half a century ago and we have machines crawling about Mars as we speak. Not a lot has been done with the moon.

How I see it, if we have an international space station up in our orbit somewhere which blatantly means we can get people up into space on a some what regular basis as it is. You are already half way there. Get some folk up there and send across shuttles to the moon with machines and tools needed to build initial buildings for people to live in and work from.

Considering like I said we first landed moon side nearly half a century ago something like this should have at least been started let alone finished. You have to wonder what NASA have been up to over all these years.

Yes there has been a lot of exploration, however why are we not doing anything closer to home. Below is my draft design of a moon base. Took me no time at all. If I can plan that in a few minutes I don't see why NASA have been taking so long.

Ramblings

So firstly I'm starting this up again as I have become bored and unemployed again. It kinda sucks however I guess me getting drunk and making a twat of my self in the place I work wasn't the greatest ideas. However the was a big bag of snidy bastardness that lead up to my drunken tangent which evidently got out of hand but hey cant blame others for me getting wankered I guess. Anyway thats by the by (and i seem to be using that lot, I might stay bringing it back, as well as Asshat as an insult and you should too) anyways I've went back to not drinking again as I need to get my life sorted out and pretty fast tbh. Anyway as I have started my unemployment saga again I think I may just go grow me another unemployment beard. There will be pictures coming in due time once I find my webcam again to give photo updates of its bearded glory.

Holiday Rant

So I'm gonna sit here and rant about holidays specifically national ones eg halloween, christmas and all that malarchy. I shall start off with Halloween as it is upon us now. I shall state one sentence I believe I heard on an old channel 4 comedy called Reaper, 'Halloween is the commercialisation of evil'. Hell, demons and the devil etc are supposed to amit fear in to people but due to people all the 'cute' kids going round trick or treating with 'scary' costumes the fear is no longer there and hasn't been for decades. Also if you haven't seen Reaper before go check it out, it got cancelled after the 2nd series but is pretty good show. Also the whole trick or treat thing I grew up with the whole don't talk to strangers or don't take sweets off strangers etc.. notion drilled in to me. The once a year we openly let this happen so long as you dress up to do it? Really? Do we not see the hypocrisy  here. 

Then we come on the the next big one, christmas. Christmas the holiday that if you say anything bad about it or disagree with it. You are looked down upon, dubbed grinch, scrooge or just cheap because you disagree with buying presents purely because it's the end of the year. If you are christian or pagan and believe or follow one of the many reasons behind christmas (commercialism doesn't count) like the birth of christ or the winter solstice I have absolutely no problem at all with you celebrating this holiday at all. But I can guarantee the majority of the country, those who go putting up christmas decorations, buying presents and all that, you know the red and white Santa Claus christmas, these people (going on assumption here) don't follow christianity or paganism. It is a religious holiday either way, damn near everyone I know (to my knowledge) aren't religious. You could argue I save all year to afford these presents, or it brings the family together. I counter argue if you want to give people presents be it friends and family who is to stop you buying them throughout the year and doing it then. And if you want to bring the family together, go out and bring the family together, get to talking, make plans, make it happen. You shouldn't be essentially forced (I use that term lightly) to buy unnecessary gifts just because society says so. 

And last but not least be will get on to the worst offender of them all, Valentines Day. The day which is chosen for you by society to show your love to your partner. I say if you are in a relationship, in love etc... why should you be made to declare feelings on a specific day be it through actions or be it through presents. If you want to show them how you feel just go do it. Doesn't matter if it is on the 14th of February or the 23rd of August. This is commercialisation at it's worst. I am single right now, but if I happened to be in a relationship, I would completely boycott Valentines Day and do what everyone else tends to do on a different day when I felt like showing said person affection. I'm not going to have society tell me when I should show affection to people I like, just like I shouldn't have to put up with them telling me I have to buy things on certain days.

This rant was brought to you by some random wall post on Facebook. Also coffee.

Actually as I am here I shall also give an update of the beard of beardedness as it seems ages since I have done one and here you are.

Reading on the Toilet

To be honest I never really understood the whole read while you crap thing. I have tried it in the past, but to be honest unless you are severely constipated or have the shits there is really no time at all to read anything worth while. If you read while you have the shits, good for you. I bring this up due to the fact the guardian actually had an article about this, if you want to give it a read here is the link.

I just don't understand why people do it. The few times I have done it I either ended up sat there far to long actually getting into the book and forgetting about the reason I actually went to the toilet for, if I wanted to sit down and read a book surely I would want to do it without my arse out on display or I'll be done crapping within a minute or so and end up reading half a sentence which is no point really as it would take literally years to finish a book reading it a couple sentences a day.

With the exception of constipation or the shits as you would be there for quite awhile, I really don't get why people read while crapping.

Should we boycott toilet seats?

I hsd an interesting thought earlier about toilets. Bare with me on this, what I don't get is why are all your standard toilets not build with a toilet seat attatched. Think about it, you buy a new toilet and set up in your bathroom, but you can't use it. You still have to go buy a toilet seat.

I want to crap now though, I shouldn't have to hold it in or do that awkward hover to drop the kids off at the pool. I generally want to know why you have to buy toilet seats separate from toilets and why toilet seats wern't put in to the design process of actually toilet. The fact we have to buy them separate is quite frankly ridiculous. You might argue but the why it is we can get 'novelty' toilet seats, I counter that point with what the hell is the point in fancy toilet seats, people don't buy toilets to look at how pretty they are, they buy them for 2 reasons.
I for one look forward to a world where the toilet seat industry doesn't exist and toilet and toilet seat are joined together as one just like they should be. I just don't get why this isn't the standard for toilets nation wide.

Random Title

So it's been a little over a week since the last bearded update and I haven't rambled on pointlessly for a while either so that is what I shall be doing for the next few minutes as I let my fingers type away and we will see what crap comes up. I am really starting to like my beard now, it is getting rather beardly, and apparently beardly isn't a word according to spell check, so I might go patent the word and get it put in the dictionary and get royalties some how every time some one says it. So what have I been up to I hear you all ask, frankly it's same as always at this moment in time, get up, watch latest tv as I watch at american pace and get all your sitcoms and random american comedies weeks in advance of british tv. South Park has started again by the way for all that might be interested so no doubt it'll be turning up on comedy central in a few weeks or something. It's pretty funny, the episode is about aspergers and Cartman starts a burger stand, anyway I'll not give to much away for anyone that hasn't seen it yet. Where was I, yeah same shit different day really, but I find stuff to keep me amused. Right now I have downloaded a load of custom Left 4 Dead campaigns and am going to play through all of them and I recently bought Enemy Territory: Quake Wars, it's a pretty old game but it's a decent game and I will be getting back into that again whenever it arrives in the post, it'll probably be monday or something. I'm in no hurry anyway. I can't really think of anything else to say so here is the latest on the bearded front.

The beard is still going.

So as I never really have much to say at the moment which is more than likely due to the fact I do sweet fuck all for a living at the minute. I am going to do weekly updates of the unemployment beard instead of daily. I am still taking a picture every day and at some point down the line I will do a beard growth montage quite possibly with Eye of the Tiger playing because all montages should use it. It's the one thing about life Rocky taught me, if you can a montage you need Rocky montage music to back it up. Anyway due to the weekly beardedness thing going on you can actually see a significant difference between the pics I am going to put on here as there is going to be a week of beardedness between them. Makes sense doesn't it. I need to go pee so I am gonna finish rambling here and shove up a picture quickly before I make a mess. So every ... wednesday I shall post a picture of the bearded progress. I may actually keep my beard even if I do get a job, I am kind of growing attatched to it. One last thing I think I might work on a decent background for this place instead of using a random template. We shall see.
