*THE CHRONICLES OF COLLEGE-GUY*
Semester 2, Episode 6: "'Apathetic'? A Pathetic What?"
February 192005
Doodling below my notebook, I am turning the stick figure on my desk into a chick—making the legs a skirt and giving her really huge melons. Speaking of big knockers, that Latina girl in the corner looks pretty nice. Maybe I could tit-fuck her some time, cum in her face.
"Excuse me," says the acne-faced twerp in the corner. "I don't understand why Democrats complain about the President rolling back taxes for the rich when they were paying more in percentage than the average family anyway."
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to my political science class. The course is taught by a really cool guy who knows a lot about his subject—though he didn't one thing he should have and that really pissed me off, but that's neither here nor there. Despite the teacher's coolness, my peers, as always, are complete fuckin' morons. The ditsy blondes "can't memorize the isms", the nerdy white guys can't stop ranking on the fuckin' Democrats, and the black kid at the back of the room only raises his hand to answer ONE question (over and over again) and he ALWAYS gets it wrong. As usual, I'm stuck in a sea of dipshits.
"Because," the teacher says, taking a step to the side. "They say this stuff for political reasons as well as practical ones."
"Practical how?" the sniveling jerk asks.
"Because taxes don't starve the rich," shouts someone else. "The difference between five and ten percent for a poor family means having clothes for the winter or not. For the rich, it's the difference between a new Jet Ski or the old one."
"Yeah, but if we don't have services like free health care, then what's the point of raising taxes on the rich?"
"You know what?" one of the stupider kids from the back says. "None of us makes $200,000 a year, so none of us should even have an opinion on this."
Now, you have to imagine what is going through my head during this exchange of idiocy. I could win this argument for either side, pulling up facts, figures, and examples to win my argument, regardless of what it is. These kids are buffoons and I could easily convince them that the government should use chicken for currency if I wanted. Instead, I don't really care to say my point of view. Why?
Because I don't fucking really care about taxation or social equality. I've already paid taxes and I don't mind it much—the worst ones are property taxes and you can change that by simply moving one town over. I've also seen the horrors that our capitalist system does to minority families, and I don't really give a shit either.
Again, it's not that I don't know a lot. I just don't waste my time caring about stupid shit that I can't change. Yes, people should know as much as possible about this shit. But don't fucking care about it! Use the knowledge; bend it to your liking. Don't sit up at night trying to figure out a way to solve inner-city disenfranchisement or being happy that the GOP creamed the competition in the last election. Spend your time caring about important stuff, stuff that has to do with you.
For instance, I really want to fuck this brown chick in the corner...Anyway, like I was saying, uh, eat your vegetables...Man, if I ever do get to fuck her, I've got to put it in her ass too. I bet she'd go for it.

Now this is a good post, but it could have been written by anybody. Not really a "sam richardson" post. Maybe it's time for you to let the series die and move on and post as you?
