Fallen Angels Amongst Us

  They've got it nailed. Yes, the average teenage female has mastered the art of the perfect profile picture. Poses that have been borrowed and perfected from fashion magazines are now the norm. I expect much time has gone into there execution ,as most appear picture perfect. Maybe Im getting older, but surely everyone cant be so beautiful, can they ? Even with youth on their side...
  Of course this is all an illusion as in real life these people I know are not that perfect in appearance, hence their manipulation of  photography is all the more baffling and impressive. Just when, and how have they found the time and skills to produce such professional images ?
  I have to laugh though as now everyone is at that high level its become the norm, hence nothing is gained. Such is life...
   This reminds me of an amusing incident in which a woman of my approx age appeared on " people you may know " She looked like a celebratory with a boob job. I was even more surprised when my cousins son was friends with her. I asked him who the woman was. Id forgot her name, but gave him a description of her glamorous appearance. He was baffled, and couldn't think who I meant. A few months later he recalled who the woman was. He had been thrown of the scent by my glowing description. He told me said woman was not so special, in fact she was scrawny, cheap, starved herself, and took literally hundreds of photo's  of herself from every angle possible, then picked the best one. Maybe this method also works for younger women ? Its probably just another one of  those tricks of the trade that women will always keep a well kept secret.

Now Were All Guilty

There is a brand new age that has just arrived. Its been delivered by a new self righteous generation. Old ideas regarding discrimination are being taken to whole new levels. These people can often be heard on our radio stations spouting their blurb, no doubt aided by a Psychology degree or a Media Studies degree  ( young people have told me most jobs require them )  Yes, the people Im talking about are mealy mouthed, politically correct spokes ( nearly always women ) people for organisations against discrimination, often sexual or racial. They are very articulate, and highly trained in how to get their message across on the air waves .  So whats my problem then ?
  Well recently ive got so annoyed ive turned my radio off in a hail of expletives. I have a healthy distrust of certain issue groups, and the way they constantly re justify their existence as we all move with them in changing our out looks, they constantly dilute what is deemed " unacceptable " in their eyes, hence we can never " win ", and they keep themselves on a job. I personally think they sometimes enjoy being offended... but well, thats for another post for another day...
   No, what really pissed me off was the new idea that  that such spokes people are banding about that our, and I quote  " subconscious bias or discrimination " maybe a problem we do not even realise exists. We maybe discriminating or be racist and not even know it !! My god how do we fight that accusation ? It seems we are all doomed by this typically extreme criminalisation of absolutely everyone ? Even if it is true, just how the hell are we meant to fight it ? Maybe by discriminating against every instinct we have and, or cowering before every minority or person we meet of the opposite sex ? Words fail me, they really do. A new level of insanity has been reached. We are all deemed guilty. Well such people can take their media trained views and stickem where the sun dont shine. Period !!
