inequality?

a lot has been said about economic inequality and the ever increasing chasm between the haves and the have nots. this little deal is QUITE INTERESTING and kind of cool to play with even though it seems to be a little biased against white men. all is can say is, jesus fucking christ i apologize for being a white male. i'm just lucky to born on a white male friendly planet. there's a few planets where i wouldn't want to be a white male for all the tea in china.

i don't know who owns the outfit that produces the CRONUT BURGER, but a lot of people have puked their guts out after eating one. it's pretty easy to sit back and say any fool who eats that shit deserves to get sick but i must confess, in my younger days, after a few drinks, a cronut burger would have looked pretty good. same thing for wendy's baconator. the thought of eating one of those things makes me sick but once again, in my younger years, i would have ran to wendy's as soon as the first buy one, get one free coupon arrived in the mail.

so heres the question, would you eat a cronut burger?

and here's a little bit of news that made me smile. JUSTIN TRUDEAU SMOKED POT AFTER BECOMING A MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT! as i said, my first reaction was, right on justin, you're my man! but then i read where that fucknut prime minister of ours, fat bald harper, was grinning like the cheshire cat when he heard about this. just one more item for harper to base his attack ads on for the next election. the more whacky stuff trudeau does, the higher the odds of harper getting re-elected. it can be quite depressing.

in the spirit of canadiana, let me present a cool song that makes me proud to be a canadian:

i love you sons of bitches.

Yep, I'd eat one of those burgers, but I'm sure glad I didn't get the chance!

BBC said...

If you saw my kitchen you would know that I could eat two of those cronut burgers and it wouldn't affect me a bit. You pussies just don't train your guts and bodies to take anything that isn't sanitized.

billy pilgrim said...

it's that maple bacon jam on top that gives me the willies.

BBC said...

That's nothing compared to a few of the places I've stuck my tongue.

Gorilla Bananas said...

No way would I eat that burger. I might feed it to a monitor lizard. Is Justin the son of some other Trudeau who used to be the PM of Canada? He'll win the pot-smokers' votes but there might not be enough of them.

billy pilgrim said...

king - i have a lovely picture in my mind.

gb - yes, justin has prime ministerial blood coursing through his veins. maybe some other stuff too.

BBC, from the looks of you I'd say you didn't either.

I’ve made a lot of mistakes over the millenniums and one of my biggest mistakes in the last century was fucking her mother. But to give credit where credit is due, she was a willing and decent cocksucker. It’s too bad she didn’t put her fucking bitch baby in a weighted gunny bag and drop her in a lake.

billy pilgrim said...

if i'm reading this correctly, you had your way with leslie's mother.

was this in body or in spirit?

BBC said...

Figure it out, the spirit is omnipresent, the all.

Leslie said...

Daddy?

Leslie said...

How come the spirit wasn't omnipresent in English class?

Leslie said...

Or the dentist's office?

Leslie said...

Or the shower?

Leslie said...

Or the drugstore aisle where toenail fungus cream is located?

BBC said...

Why would the spirit be concerned about one fucking body, they are disposable and none of you live all that long no matter how hard you try or how much money you spend trying. And your vanities don’t impress me.

I’m not in the mood to sit here and visit with a bitch so I’ll stop following this comment string. *poof*

Just as a courtesy to others? Also, it might've helped your sex life.

billy pilgrim said...

is this like the immaculate conception or the virginal conception?

either way, it makes leslie pretty special. or not.

Farmer Giles said...

Ah, Billy, my friend, sorry to drop by whilst the Bill & Leslie show's in full swing.

"That's nothing compared to a few of the places I've stuck my tongue." Yeah, I know, Bill, mate, I read some of the comments relating to anal gymnastics on Billy's previous Blog! :-P. It's little fuckin' wonder that you can stomach a Cronut burger, Bill, mate! :-P

Take Care & Stay Lucky, Mate. To You & Yours, I Wish You a Happy & Peaceful Night!

Peace,

Steve/Utopia...

billy pilgrim said...

farmer giles - leslie and bill in full swing is more interesting than anything i can come up with.

i never knew that bill spirit had his way with leslie's mother. educational as well as highly entertaining.

time to hop on the bike and collect a few cans.

oh yeah, "poof"

Using their numbers I make about five times what the average black woman makes... let's agree for the sake of argument that this discrepancy is unfair.

Now how about those folks that earn 1000 times what I earn, due to their cozy connections with corrupt politicians and regulators, yet they pay half the taxes (as a fraction) as me? Is that 200 times more unfair? Personally I think it's worse, but hell maybe I should quit while I'm ahead as a typical, well educated white male...

billy pilgrim said...

yes, i agree that the current distribution of wealth is not equitable.

you point to corruption and greed etc which of course play a large part but i see it as a simpler root cause. with the parabolic increase in population, there is a surplus of labor thus driving down the value.

those people with skills that are in demand and not in an position of over supply are doing quite well.

this is a macro analysis and of course on the micro level you can find several faults with my logic.

the king has stated this fact many times in a differnt manner; too many fucking monkeys.

thimscool said...

Hmm, yes, and simultaneously compounded and exacerbated by technological advances that increase productivity (further reducing wages) and promote health and perceived safety (increasing population).

Not good, eh. Maybe a plague or war, or global warming can sort this mess out for us the hard way.

thimscool said...

If any of those happen, and there is a drastic reduction in population, then think how much more valuable labor will become! All I have to do is survive Armageddon and it'll be fat city!

thimscool said...

In before ALTF corrects me on the difference between Apocalypse and Armageddon.

billy pilgrim said...

armageddon or apocalypse?

they're both religious fairy tales are they not?

thimscool said...

Armageddon refers to an actual place... it's a real shit hole but the land is cheap.

billy pilgrim said...

and apocalypse is where napalm smells real good in the morning?

thimscool said...

This is the end...

India is screwed, and one has to wonder when the Chinese gravity defiance club will adjourn their three decade long meeting.

I don't think that the world economy works like it did in the 20's, but if there is any analogy, we are like Europe (bullshit and speculation), and China is like the US was (overproducing to satisfy the bullshitters and speculators)...

If there is any validity to this analogy, then the pattern looks like: consumption decreases in the land of bullshit, and then prices collapse, destroying the means in the land of over-production, and then it all becomes a land of confusion, with not enough love to go around. Then comes war.

In the mean time, those dimes are looking pretty good.

billy pilgrim said...

yes, toss in global warming and the desertification of arable land not to mention rising sea levels and there might be a wee problem coming sooner than later.

as for china, big problems with their demographics are going to compound the problem big time with the upper middle class already establishing themselves in safe western countries. you ought to walk through about half the vancouver neighborhoods.

we are indeed living in interesting times.
