This Blog is About You (But You're Still Vain)

So I got this anonymous comment on my blog- in all caps- and like a good Blogger (The company, not a reference to me) they blocked it and marked it as spam instead of letting it actually show up.   But after some consideration, I find this to be humerous at first glance, but overall just a sad reminder of what a terrible state we are in as the human race.   How can someone who hardly knows someone else (if even at all) judge them so harshly?   Well, read on because it actually gets a little bit racist and, well, that's how blind hatred works, right?

By the way, I don't like taking the time to do this, but considered I'd leave it up as a warning to others trying to be as "smart" as this person.   If you leave me an anonymous comment in all caps- whether it is the same person again or not- 1: Blogger will mark it as spam and it won't show up and 2: I will not do another one of these rants reducing myself to your level.  Even though I'm still slightly better because my points are valid and yours are pulled out of thin air.

Enjoy.  I am the one not in all caps, if that needed to be restated.

YOU ARE A PERSON WHO NEEDS A JOB AND GET A REAL HOBBY....
For an opening statement, does this make sense to anyone else?  I need a job, yes, but I also need a “real” hobby?   This person didn’t even specify what my hobby that isn’t “real” is for me to get a real one.   I have plenty of hobbies, so which one are they saying are fake?

IF YOU ARE WAITING FOR YOUR "DREAM JOB" THEN GET OFF OF YOUR LAZY ASS AND HIT THE PAVEMENT. JOBS JUST DON'T COME TO YOU, YOU GO TO THEM.
Not true, I once knew a guy who got a job because it ACTUALLY did come to him.   True story.

SITTING AT HOME ON THE COUCH 24/7 AND 365/SOMETIMES 366 DAYS A YEAR BLOGGING AND FACEBOOKING DOESN'T CONSTITUTE SOMEONE FINDING THEIR DREAM JOB.
What I find funniest about this statement is not the fact that anyone who knows me knows that I don’t in fact sit on my couch all the time, but the simple fact that I do not have the internet at home.  So your idea of me blogging and Facebooking from my couch comes unfounded as I can do no such thing from my couch and must go somewhere (usually the library) to do so.   I’m not even going to begin to mention the mere logistics of this I thought of when reading it, such as simple things like going to the bathroom or even sleeping in my own bed.
IF YOUR DREAM JOB CONSISTED OF YOU BLOGGING AND FACEBOOKING ALL DAY, WELL THEN YOU WOULD DEFINITELY TAKE THE CAKE AND BE CONSIDERED EMPLOYEE OF THE YEAR;
Thanks…  I think?   Am I the only one who sees that as kind of a compliment?  I mean, I do like cake.
BUT OF COURSE YOU ARE NOT GETTING PAID, YOU ARE SITTING AT HOME, PRETENDING TO BE A GOOD, DECENT HUMAN BEING BUT IT IS WELL KNOWN THAT YOU ARE NOT.
While I’m not bothered by this person’s claims on my character, I do find it funny that they chose to say it was “well known” that I’m not.   Where is it well known?  Who knows it?  I don’t know that many people, and those that actually interact with me somehow don’t really know me that well anyway.  Obviously this person doesn’t know me at all, but the funny thing is, on what authority do they have it that I’m known all around town as a bad dude pretending to be good?   Look, I never say I am or claim to be anything.  I let people form their own judgments of me.   But the thing is, people don’t really see my true nature (nor do I brag about what I actually do), so sometimes it goes left unnoticed and I’m fine with that.  Again, I must go back to the earlier statement as well (Since it’s repeated here) about my sitting home all day.   Who are all these people and why do they know I’m such a horrible human being if all I’m doing is sitting on my couch all day?  Contradicting yourself is the first step toward being wrong, anonymous ranter.
IF YOU WERE, YOU WOULD GET A JOB - NO MATTER WHAT TYPE OF JOB AND START BRINGING IN THE MONEY TO SUPPORT YOUR WIFE AND THOSE CATS AND SOON TO BE CHILD.
Ah yes, because only good people have jobs.  You know what?  Rather than argue about how high the unemployment rate is or suggest that at one point in your life you were probably also unemployed, let me offer up this simple question for you.   By your logic, clearly everyone who doesn’t have a job is bad.  Then does that mean that everyone who has a job is good?  Because I think I could name some bad dudes with jobs.

TO GET YOUR DREAM JOB AT NINTENDO AND THAT JOB CONSISTED OF YOU HAVING MERCHANDISING EXPERIENCE....
Actually, I used that as an example of what my dream job *might* be, since I couldn’t think of anything at the time along the lines of what I’d like to be paid to do because right now I’d like to be paid to do just about anything.  But obviously you didn’t read my other blog and fully understand, so, sorry, I can’t dumb it down for you.   But just for the record, Nintendo is not my dream job.   You probably just skimmed what I wrote any way.
WELL LET ME TELL YOU A SECRET SIR...THERE ARE THESE BIG BUILDINGS THAT WILL HELP YOU GET A JOB, THEY ARE CALLED SCHOOLS..YES IT IS A NEW CONCEPT...GOING TO COLLEGE, GETTING AN EDUCATION OR PERHAPS START AT HEB STORES AND GET MERCHANDISING EXPERIENCE OR PERHAPS GO TO GAMESTOP AND START FROM THERE. SEE IT IS ALL ABOUT THAT.
Further proof this person knows nothing about me: I have a degree.  Yes, not only am I aware that one can go to school after high school I actually did attend school then as well.   I probably have a higher level of education than you, considering that all you’re doing point by point is proving how little you actually know about me and, well, making your case look all the weaker.  Rule number one, dude, know your enemy.  It’s kind of funny to see you try and insult me when you obviously know nothing about me.
And just to clarify, the Nintendo job was something I stumbled upon over five years ago and though it was only meant as an example, going to work as a merchandiser somewhere else wouldn’t help me now unless you can somehow provide me with time travel.   By the by, even though I don’t post is freely, it should be noted here as well that I actually do have merchandising experience now.
WHAT A WONDERFUL THOUGHT IF A JOB PROFILE HAS A SKILL THAT YOU ARE NOT THAT FAMILIAR WITH, COMMON SENSE WOULD TELL YOU TO EITHER FIND AN ENTRY LEVEL JOB TO HELP YOU ACHIEVE THAT DREAM JOB AND HERE IS ANOTHER PART, GO TO SCHOOL.
More of the same, but really, is your caps lock stuck or are you just that annoying?
 A REAL MAN WOULD NOT BE ASHAMED OF HIS JOB JUST AS LONG AS HE IS SUPPORTING HIS FAMILY AND PAYING HIS TAXES - LIKE ANY RESPECTABLE AMERICAN.
I agree.  And had I a job, I would not be ashamed of it if it could provide me with money to put food on the table, as the old cliché goes.  I think you’re arguing just for the sake of arguing now.
THE SAD THING IS THAT THERE ARE MORE ILLEGALS WORKING HARDER THAN YOU - AND THAT IS YOU JOSHUA - A PERSON WHO WAS BORN IN THE USA WHO REFUSES TO GET A JOB.
Number one:  Yes, like Bruce Springsteen, I was born in the U.S.A.   However, these talks of “illegals” makes me wonder who exactly is writing this and why I should care since you’re obviously some sort of racist.   I see people as people.   Show me the test you passed to live here, and assuming you’re not Native American, then anyone has as much right to be here as you do.   So, sit down, shut up and leave the racism to… well, not my blog.
Number two: I like how you say I refuse to get a job.   You know, it’s funny.  I’ve been offered many high paying positions and entry level jobs over the last year or so and you know, I turned them all down because I just refuse to get a job.   Snicker snicker.  End sarcasm.
IF BEING A LAZY WAS A JOB, WELL THEN BY GOLLY YOU GOT IT SIR!
On one hand, you’re calling me lazy, which is an insult.  On the other, you end it with “sir”, which makes me think that you have some sort of respect for me.   Well, you know, I’d be offended and try to refute your claims of my being not only lazy but the laziest of the lazies, as you sort of put it, but again, you obviously know nothing about me and think I’m somehow super-glued to my sofa, so yeah, your opinion is of little consequence to me.
BTW - THIS REPLY ISN'T FROM SOMEONE WHO IS DIRECTLY KNOWN TO YOU...THIS IS FROM SOMEONE WHO YOU WOULD LEAST SUSPECT....................................... SOMETIMES IT IS THE QUIET ONES YOU NEED TO WATCH OUT FOR
So… you’re not directly known to me, yet you’re also someone I’d be least likely to expect?   Funny, because if you’re not directly known to me (As in, if we are not friends, but say, instead you happened to just read this because you were linked here by someone on Facebook who has nothing better to do than concern themselves with the business of others because they’re too emotionally retarded to have their own life rather than meddling in other peoples business), so why would I suspect you if I don’t even know you?   It’s like, I’m waiting for this reveal at the end, like, “Aha!  It was me!  Bob Tewksberry all along!”  And I’m scratching my forehead like, “Who the $%^& is Bob Tewksberry??”  But the even better question is, why should I care? 
So here I am, this huge lazy person who doesn’t leave the couch, is less significant than one of those goshdarn illegal immigrants and would rather be a horrible person than get a job.   And here you are, someone who doesn’t know me, read one thing I wrote (Again, probably skimmed it) and suddenly took it upon themselves to form all of these opinions about me.  Oh, and not only form these opinions about me, but take the time to post them as an anonymous coward on my blog, in all caps none the less.  Who’s the real loser I ask you—your so-called loser in me, or the person who has nothing better to do than try (and fail miserably) to degrade a complete stranger?
