Burn Black Velvet

Is it just me? Or did anybody see the flag in the Navbar.... wtf. *diappointed growl*

I looked into that last night, curious as to the new edition hanging there on my navbar... This one, however; could possibly seal the fate of some of us.
Apparently, if you find the content of a persons blog "objectionable" you should click the flag... Therefore alerting the blogger brain to scan your content. And thus, if they agree your stuff is "objectionable" they will kick you like a bad habit and not sponsor you on blogger.com. I think for like, 30 minutes this actually upset me.

Sure, they claim the whole freedom of speech stuff... I'm sure its a cover your ass tactic. Apparently far too many citizens out there have forgotten the good words of Thomas Jefferson...
Bastards, stifling free speech.
No seriously, let this get you a bit agitated...

What constitutes objectionable content? In whose eyes? We see objectionable content on the news everyday, yet it is pressed and streamed into our little pink houses as a form of education? Entertainment? *snark*
Sure, the kind of entertainment that prompts my son to ask.. what's a pedophile and why don't people want them to live in their neighborhood? What's prostitution?
Perhaps we should have a flag for that as well... Sure, I could turn the tv off. And our blog readers that find objectionable content could collapse or close the window too.

Ask yourself. Sure, for you and I and anybody else with an open mind, things such as child pornography... bestiality, talk of terrorism and murder -- methanphetamines to children are horrendous and thus objectionable.

But what of those who push the good moral values of catholism *choke*
What of those a little too right wing?
What of those that assume when you talk about a black man in your post, you're automatically opening up a new chapter of roots?
To them, just saying good morning in our way might constitute objectionable content.

So what of this.. Do I continue to give my readers what they ask for and give a big fuck you to the flag... Or do I stifle these writings and talk about how I saw a dog today and boy was he cute.... The cinnamon roll was tasty... I have a run in my panty hose.

For this anomaly I turn the table to you, my readers and fans; I would like to think that I could continue giving you what you wish to read. And would hope that for me, you would do the same. I love you all the way you are... And I think the flag is the first step to the blogisphere gagball...

Ironic, isn't it? That the demise of our free speech should be construed as a flag.
Hmmm....
Tell me what you want people... I certainly can't figure it out myself. And whatever you do... Don't click on my flag! If you want to test the theory... Use your own *smile*

This topic will bring on some really fascinating views I'm sure. I feel a new game of tag coming on.... Yep.
List 5 things that you find objectionable, in any media... or just in daily routine. I mean, if you had a flag to stick on something that you objected to, what would they be? Once finished, tag three more people if you wish, or end the chain. Here's mine:

1. No seatbelts on school buses. Community buses, well that's a little different.

2. Adults that let their children run free reign. There is one child in our neighborhood that I swear does not have parents. If he does, they could care less about him. I had sympathy for him; until he dropped trou and pissed in my neighbors flowerbed.

3. The playing of the movie Blade during dinner time. Wtf? I was really enjoying that steak.

4. Current gas prices; okay, that's everybody's arguement... but seriously... our city just hit an all time high at $2.85 a gallon. Up the street I pay $2.74... and I feel like I am getting a good deal.

5. Tampon commercials, maxi commercials, viagra commercials, Zovorax commercials... anytime. Of course, with the exclusion of the viagra commercials during sports. I actually enjoy thinking of all those heavily padded football players popping viagra and running amuck with hard-ons while patting each others asses and slamming into one another. That's cool.

I tag Sass, Murph, Ming, Gladiator,...UCN and -Rm for fun. UCN and -RM have only lately made there introduction here... let's get them involved.... tee hee... I will be interested to see what develops!
