Hope you get to dance like this.

I play in a band, and I always tell the rest "Play music that the honeys' like - they will attract the men, who will pay for the drinks, that will make the bar money, that will be pleased with the band, and will book the band again and pay them more money." Good tunes -> hoochies dancing -> good bar business -> bar likes band and gets more gigs.

At least play music that is relevant, and doesn't just appeal to the cows and sheep.

Of the "population?" Are they including children if their parents own? Illegals?

Genes are controlling their lives. As far as we know, we did not pick the genes that we came with. If we do not like the characteristics we have, we cannot change the genes. That leaves us with an unfortunate conclusion: We are victims of our heredity. Meaning, if there is cancer running in your family, well, anticipate that their gene for cancer is going to affect you and you are going to have cancer or cardiovascular disease or diabetes or Alzheimer’s or whatever those so-called hereditary issues are. So, we are powerless in controlling our biology, because the genes control it by turning on and off, and we have no control over them. A human body is actually a community of 50 trillion cells. the fate of the cell is controlled by the conditions of the environment. The blood composition is really the factor that controls the genetic response of the cell. So then, what controls the composition of the culture medium? The blood. So, the brain is the chemist. I know the brain is the chemist, but what chemistry should the brain put into the blood? The chemistry put into the blood by the brain is a direct complement to the picture we hold in our mind. In other words, the mind’s image is translated by the brain into chemistry, which then goes to the body to create a physical complement to the image in the mind. In ancient terms, back from the days of the Buddha, 2500 years ago, “What we believe, we become.” Basically, our perception changes the chemistry of our blood.– Bruce Lipton, PhD, Cell Biologist, UW Madison and Stanford

No need to be gloomy. In most instances. And for most people. We live in a great country, imo.

Makes me think. I smell wood burning, or is it neurons burning. I'm confused.

Yeah, that's a stealth Blue Pill meme, or at best Purple Pill. Freedom should show him talking a break from his OLTR to bang a plate or twosome.

Sure, men have to earn a living. That's part of life.

If it said "Go work for MegaCorp, Inc." then that would be blue pill, but there are many ways to earn a living, and lot of them let you retain your independence from BlackRock and Larry Fink.

P.S. I this one doesn't get enough likes to propel it into the Best Comments thread, then this site is pretty fucked up. :)

The greatest triumphs of propaganda have been accomplished, not by doing something, but by refraining from doing. Great is truth, but still greater, from a practical point of view, is silence about truth. — Aldous Huxley in the (circa 1946) Preface to his 1931 novel Brave New World
