"smile and the world smiles with you, cry and you cry alone."

[blustocking]

It's true, but it's bullshit. That is what has always bothered me about the world. It's inability to handle strong emotion, especially negative. "Suck it up, smile, be happy, even if you're dying inside." There's something to be said for honest, true emotion rather than packaged happiness. Alas, no one seems to be able to handle their own negativity, let alone anyone elses. That, and the world is selfish and conceited.

I love broad generalizations...so here's some more:

People who drive white cars are dumb. People who drive white SUV's are worse.
Everyone on the 405, or any California freeway, have no concept of "slower traffic keep right". None.

Some of that Colorgenics stuff was accurate, but if felt like self-help bullshit for the most part. Then again, maybe that's me just being negative and unwilling to help myself. Pff.

Woo! Right on. Together, we can a whole NEW brand of prejudice! Heheheh. :)

I wonder if I told myself that all people who drive red cars are stupid that I would notice that more than the white-car theory? Then again, it takes a certain kind of person to actually CHOOSE white as opposed to an actual color or even black, especially a white SUV.
