Not your typical Happy 4th Edition


Many years ago, residents of certain parts of Kentucky, and West Virginia bore witness to a feud between two rival families. They were the Hatfields, and the McCoys, and their disputes were so volatile, that their story has been taught in history books, and has now been portrayed in living color in a television mini-series.
There is a similar battle being waged today, all around us. It once again involves two families, and we are all caught in the middle of their onslaught.
Welcome to life amongst...

-The Douchefields and McAsshats-

... And welcome once again to The Beast Burrow! I'm glad you could all make it.
I hope at least a few of you took The Beast's last instructions to heart, and used the phrase, "Feast your (body part other than eyes)" during a conversation. If not, there's still time to do so. The Beast is fairly lenient as far as time lines go. No rush... No pressure... No hurry. Get it done!!
I suppose I should have started today's post off with the obligatory 4th of July well wishing. I'm just not that wrapped up in such events, and so sometimes forget to mention them to others.
If I had my way, Holidays and Dates of Historic Importance would have a scheduled shelf life, and then be terminated to make room for something new and exciting.
My shelf life system would allow people who actually lived through an event plus the following generation who had to listen to their stories their entire lives to celebrate said event each year.
Once that following generation's last remaining member was verified to die, there would no longer be a need to celebrate shit that nobody currently alive was a part of.
New Year's could stick around, seeing as how there will always be a turn of the seasons.
I rather like dressing up and free candy, so Halloween can feel free to linger as well.
My system would mostly target religious occasions, since celebrating make-believe events is just silly, and also historic events which are remembered by no persons who actually witnessed them, or bare minimum knew people who witnessed them.
I think my system would open up a good chunk of the calendar, and force us to think of new things to celebrate which are actually relevant to our modern lives.
I mean, seriously; how long do we need to continue celebrating the 4th of July? By today's political mind set, we're basically celebrating something that we would consider treasonous if it were attempted again. Just think what happened the last time some of our own states tried to secede from the union. We basically did the same thing to gain our independence.
None of us alive today have the slightest clue of what life was like here under British rule. None of us can possibly know whether or not we're actually better off for having defeated them either.
Maybe somebody has a device in their basement which allows them to view alternate time lines. If so... Please share what you've seen with the rest of us.
Wouldn't it be a kick in the pants to find out, that had the British won, we would all be zipping around in hover cars now, and world hunger would have become a thing of the past in the 1960's. Perhaps one or both of the World Wars would never have been fought...... Who knows?

Well... I hope I've given you all something to think about while you celebrate our treasonous past.
Happy 4th of July Everybody!!!

BEAST OUT

I'm all in favor of your holiday shelf-life system so long as the actual number of federal/state holidays isn't reduced. I rather enjoy having a day off of work in early October, which is currently celebrated as Columbus day, but agree that it would be a much BETTER holiday if it were the official "Oktoberfest - A Celebration of Beer and Sausage Day."

I think you just hit upon the next plank in the platform.

So true, so true... a classic lesson in the definition of perception

That's why I said we would open up the calendar to new things to celebrate. I'm not a big fan of tradition. All tradition is to me, is current generations admitting they can't think of anything as good as or better than guys thought up hundreds of years ago.

Perception is everything, dear.
One side considers themselves heroic during a war, while the other side is evil, and deserves defeat. The funny thing...is each country is thinking that exact same thing, and lying to their respective populations to make public sentiment align with that thinking.
I just used warfare as and example. It holds true for plenty of other things as well.

THANK GOD I read this day...I would have HATED missing out on Chocolate Day. That would have been an epicly horrible day to miss. Now I have a perfectly good reason to have chocolate tomorrow. THANKS Jules...

I make mistakes, I am out of control & at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best. ~Marilyn

Jules is good for anything chocolate related. I think she's actually looking forward to Franks and Beans day more however.
