Corey Delany: Wanker

Every so often there arrives in the news someone who both proves that celebrities are made, not born, and destroys my faith in humanity. All in the same fell swoop. It should be obvious that I'm talking about 'Corey, the party dude' here, since that's what the title says.

I first read about the party, and my reaction was 'ok, what a retard...' Then articles and articles flooded in, and my reaction changed. 'I want this turd off my news!' I was mildly relieved when a group of Romanians beat the crap out of him. In fact, I was nearly ecstatic when I found out that these Romanians were friends of friends of mine. I'm still waiting on an autograph.

The fact is, this Corey wanker has been getting everything he wants, and nothing he deserves. Until he got beat up, but that changed nothing. I recently heard he is now on Big Brother. Why won't someone tell him where he can shove those godawful sun glasses!?! Instead, we treat him like a hero. I was absolutely disgusted when a friend of mine told me that a friend of hers idolizes Corey. Even dresses like him.

That is not cool. Purely because Corey is not cool. Corey is so not cool, ok, he's an arrogant, stuck up sun-of-a... Witch. What the hell was his mother smoking while she was pregnant!?! It must have been pretty bloody strong for her daughter... Oh, son, sorry, to turn out like that. If I was her... Corey's, that is, dad, I'd have been the crap out of her.. Uh, him... By now.

Sorry to destroy your previous perception of the situation, but the lesson to be learned from Cory is not 'act like a total piece of flea-ridden, dog-trodden crap and you will become rich and famous.' The lesson is 'just... do the right thing, and you won't look like such an arrogant, up-yourself, pathetic-looking, brain dead excuse for a human being.'

If you want to be cool, be COOL! Don't throw a massive, irresponsible, party behind your parents back, and get caught on the news betraying a sickeningly pitiful fashion sense. Coz... That's not cool, ok, it just isn't.

My problem with Corey is that people will look to him and think it's cool to be a retarded, stupid looking, pansy. That's just not true.

Epiphany: An Odd Form Of Self-Loathing

There are always days when one wishes a hole would form beneath them to facilitate immediate removal from this twisted world. Utter disgust and a sense of loathing settles in, forcing an intense desire to divorce oneself from ones own world. Whether it happens often, or hardly ever, we have all felt this it one point or other in time. For me, it usually happens after perusing the news and seeing yet another murder. Or perhaps some wanker has gone and thrown a party behind his parents back after promising not to. Or maybe someone has cruelly disabled someone else's ability to think, talk, walk, see, or hear, and left them still living - a still greater act of cruelty than merely taking their life.

Humanity's broken state is so self-evident, so painfully obvious, so pitifully displayed, that if one seeks the epitome of dissipation, all one has to do is gaze into a mirror and see reflected... His or her self. A human being drowning in a world full of stupid, stupid bitterness. Just as I find it hard to believe that someone could look at the natural world and not believe in the existence of some kind of creating force, I also find it hard to believe that someone could look at our retarded society and not believe in the principle of total depravity.

It's as if we live to be destructive towards our fellow human beings. It's as though everything we do is recklessly extravagant as far as causing pain is concerned. This is not the sort of world I want anything to do with, and yet it is the kind of world that people believe we can bring change to. Even Christians, which surprises me, because as a Christian, I believe that this world is only going to spiral down more and more into new heights of depravity until Jesus Christ returns.

Which is not to say we should sit by and let it collapse by any means... But we honestly shouldn't talk about 'changing the world' bringing about 'world peace' or 'making poverty history' as if those things are actually attainable. Because we know in our hearts that they are not. I'm not interested in double standards. This world is destroying itself, because that is what God said will happen. You can't redeem it.

An Ironic Paradox: What Happens When A 'People-Person' Becomes Hardened And Cynical?

We like to kill each other. We have the strangest ideas about what constitutes 'being a man'. We are just plain stupid. We all deserve to be killed. Like, right now, and (holy crap) I honestly believe we deserve that. That's why when I reflect on what Jesus did, it seems so awesome. As stupid as we are, as messed up, and completely idiotic, someone still thought it was worth dying for us.

I have no words that effectively describe how I feel about humans sometimes. I get these moods where I just wish some huge hole would appear in space and suck us all down into a bloody space/time vortex.

Well, not all of us. Just all the ones that unrealistically believe they're worth something more than a dead fly in a pile of horse crap. Those people upset me so much.

You think you're cool hey? Tell me how you can be cool and wear your jeans about your thighs at the same time? Tell me how you can be cool, and yet objectify the crap out of every girl you've ever met? Tell me how it's possible to be cool and have no respect for the opposite gender? How can you be cool and yet treat everyone else like sh*t? Tell me, my friend, how the hell can you be 'cool', and yet be so singularly 'un-cool' at the same damn time?

I wish I was like Jesus. Because then I could forgive those people. And hell, I try. And, hell, it doesn't work. But the fact is, Jesus thought it was worth dying for us. And if these people all mean something to Him, then they should sure as hell mean at least something to me.

I just wanted to get all that off my chest. Carry on.
