LOVE! It's worth more than money!
Awww! How sweet Chris! You're going to do an article about love! AWWWW!!!
I am very sorry to inform you, but it's not what you think it's going to be about. Lately there has been something that had been pissing me off, and it is not love. It's called "Romeo and Juliet". Yea, that's right, that old play that was written a few hundred years ago by some guy whose name happened to be William Shakespeare.

Not only does them using the T-3s (or 3-Ts) make me mad (Thee, Thy, and Thou), it's also how people say these problems still go on in today's society. Me being the Chris I am, it is my duty and my privilege to go against what others think without being taken away by Future Cops from the future that will take me to the present future, and then back to the present present... or however the hell it goes.

There are three main topics that people claim to be still around in today's society that took place back then, as well as now:

  • Love at first sight
  • Parent-Child conflicts
  • Family Feuds
  • That's great, but I don't see any of those happening in the society that I live in. Maybe it's just that I never go out of my chamber since I am stuck writing this stuff against my own will, or it just does not happen. I honestly think it's a combination of the two... me and my computer get along just fine, we don't fight.
    Love at first sight If you have read the play or saw the movie, you would know what I am talking about. Think about it, when the hell was the last time you saw two people that saw each other for about ten minutes, barely even talk to each other, kiss, and then decide to get married in two days that night? I know for one I have never seen that, and I am living in the year 2002, again, I don't know what year you're living in. I believe that is known as "I want to have sex with the other person, so I am just saying this so I can achieve my actual goal" in today's world.
    Parent-Child Conflicts When you were growing up, do you remember your parents trying to make you marry that evil man named France? Don't you remember when you finally stood up for yourself and told them in a loud voice, "NO! I WILL NOT MARRY THEE!" Or how about your parents threatening to kick you out of your house and hoping you die because you were going out with the wrong person? That's the worst in my opinion. I can't stand that! Or maybe even when you died for 48 hours, and then came back to life and your parents would be furious to see you alive and well after they find out the truth of why you did what you did.

    Family Feuds All the time this happens. The other day I was heading to my local grocery store and I had to dodge a few bullets from my rival family, the Bloods from across town. Luckily I hit the deck in time, otherwise I would not be here writing this for your entertainment. I tell you, those people are beasts. But you didn't hear that from me.

    Ok ok ok, let's not get carried away now shall we? I don't know about you, but I find it to be almost silly that people think those problems still exist today. I have not seen any of them that were talked about in the play.
    But you know what, to tell you the truth, I really didn't read the play or saw the movie. I just decided that I would read a summery about the play, and then write this since I had nothing else better to do. Besides, I thought Lacerda was looking lonely on the main page of this here site.

    He does do a kick ass job with his updates in my humble opinion.
