Consistently Inconsistent

AITOOW is infuriated with the fact that people can't think consistently? Now liberals (who have no problem killing a fetus) who are using executive (governor's) orders to vitiate state law on capital punishment, are in a rage because a guy who shot another guy for loud music only got life imprisonment. The stupid parents also are infuriated with the "defend your ground law" that they say legalizes killing. The guy got a life sentence. Who cares what charge produced it. If everyone is so against killing, why are they always seeking it? I ask the same question of the right wingers who want capital punishment but not abortion.

Starting Trouble

AITOOW wonders if the starter at the Olympic Speed Skating races is the guy you hear over the PA in all those early James Bond movies? Is there any way to say "ready" more laconically? He couldn't sound more bored. It's hysterical. So much for re-inventing Russia to non-Russians. I hope this doesn't get him sent to Siberia.

I LIKE LIKE Mike

AITOOW doesn't have a problem with Michael Sam being gay? Hell, if you are looking for a player to chase down a same sex opponent, wouldn't you want him to be gay? Wouldn't he try harder than a straight man? Then again, maybe the other guy would try harder to get away. What I don't like is that I believe he did it to ensure he WAS drafted (and probably higher than before the "revelation"). Now, if someone doesn't give in to tokenism, the whole league is homophobic. It's like Jason Collins. He only "found the courage" when his ability was no longer good enough. He probably thought he could get a TV job as an oddity at the worst. I also wonder about the claims of the "penetration" of gay athletes into sport. I believe high school "sorts" out a majority of personality types into the activities that they prefer. That's why is believe most actors and artists are gay. If the "sorting" does occur, then it would be logical that the mix in society (10%) is not indicative of the mix in sports. At least manly sports. Soccer is different story. Do you think that soap on a rope will make a comeback because of this?

Crime-ean War

AITOOW wonders if there are more people in jail because there are just more people or if the same amount are committing more crimes or if more are getting caught or more are getting prosecuted?

Half(ie) Time

AITOOW wonders if academically superior schools are becoming more competitive in sports because of race mixing?

.Gov Me A Break

AITOOW finds it ridiculous the our government is using our money to pay for commercials that pitch a service that they have decided that we must buy? What a business model! Maybe the health care providers should be fitting the bill for this?

Ad-app-ting To Technology

AITOOW thinks these things masquerading as apps are really just "shortcuts" to some company's already existent mobile webpage?
