Voting. Gives all the stupid people, and there a lot of them, the power to choose incorrectly. Just have the select smart and beautiful people decide things for us.

AI. Over under until they become self aware. Remember the flying drones in the movie and you thought how in the world would those drones ever exist. Uhoh.

2. cell phones. Unplug once I. A while damn it. Amazing to see so many guests In our restaurant, no matter how large the party, will sit there and be on their phone the whole time. My family rule, no phones at meal time no matter what story you tell yourself.

3. Two piece bathing suit. Omg. There should be a law about who should wear one. So many large Marge’s cramming themselves into one. But see it all the time at the beach etc.

Major pet peeve of mine is when a co-worker brings their dog to work and thinks I want to be near it. Don’t bring it to work to begin with and if you do, control the damn thing!

Politics and Religion.

You (and John Lennon's "Imagine") got this one right. Just think of the hundreds of millions of people killed in wars over flags and religion. I have zero tolerance for people who insist that theirs is the only "true" or "right" religion, and I have observed that "orthodox" any religion almost always spells trouble. Let's try to live our lives remembering the Golden Rule and the stuff we learned in kindergarten about how to treat our neighbors. I have much more respect for an honest ***** than I do for 90% of our politicians. (And I suspect that if anyone comments on my post the first one will be "only 90% --- you're an optimist") :)
It's not often that I reply to my own post, but, though I am not Catholic, I think Pope Francis embodied the "best" of religion --- reaching out to, and genuinely caring about, the less fortunate.

An example for us all.

Nuclear Weapons
Watched Oppenheimer with my 16-year old daughter ast night. After, we engaged in a conversation on the topic of inevitability and inventions. Did we have to build a bomb? When I say 'we' I'm referring to human beings. It was a lively discussion.

In order for something to be considered "the best" it has to be of benefit to all of mankind. No one can argue against (a) wheel or (b) transistor.

Yoga pants are a stretch. They are of benefit to a select group.



This alone justifies Dr. Kevorkian's help. It was nice knowing you all.

Autotune. Now it matters what you look like, not what you sound like. Mama Cass couldn't make it today.

Exactly. That's why women like Adele and Lizzo never got their shot. It's a shame we'll never know who they are.
