Medical companies -
Why hasn't someone who can't afford ridiculously priced drugs gone and shot the CEO/other high ranking employee of the company charging the ridiculous prices?
Feeling special -
Why are people put down for feeling they are special/unique? Why do we have to keep on dragging people down because they have the guts to try something we don't?
Sex -
Why are we so pre-occupied with sex? Adsmittedly it is nice but it's not exactly the be-all-and-end-all of existence not to have passed on your seed now is it?
The way the media trivialises the whole subject is pathetic as is the attitude that "if you're not out every weekend try to 'get some' that there must be something wrong with you". Well perhaps, ladies and gentlemen, it's dawned on some of us that the effort spent on getting a few moments transient pleasure might be better of spent doing something else a bit more fun, fullfilling and less superficial (or perhaps it's easier to kick back and play some computer games rather than join the heaving masses? Who knows?)?
Capitalism -
This is currently doing my head in. We are forced into capitalist ideals from early on. It annoys me that we are expected to slave away a large part of the best of our lives in-order to keep ourselves in somesort of cardboard cutout comfort. Dammit! I'd rather be dead at 60 than have to go through 40/50 years of unfulfilling crap.
I'm sick of the pretense that capitalism is somehow 'the best option': go and tell that to those in Africa that can't afford ridiculously priced drugs. And what does the World Health Organisation do? Well it sits around getting fat off hypocrisy. If someone decided to run amok in the WHO with an AK47 I wouldn't exactly be gutted.
I realise some might find some of what I've written offensive (and over-simplified), today I am sick of a lot of things, tomorrow I will be sick of them still but no doubt I will have repressed them down again, sometimes it's good to have a rant at the unfair injustices in the world and I hope you'll bare with me but goddammit I AM ANNOYED!

*Gets carving*
I'm not really happy with complaining so I thought I'd get a load out in one whole go and get it off my chest. Very therapeutic :)
So I was wrong about the WHO then?

It's one thing to feel special, quite another to prove it to someone else. Hence the great deal of witless cynicism that surrounds the whole subject.
> Sex -
Completely agree. It's nice, sometimes amazing and mind-blowing, but too much of anything gets boring.
> Capitalism -
I have no complaints, from a personal perspective. The only problem I see is that certain morals are often flushed away in the name of profit.
As for your comments about the WHO, I'm not even going to bother with that crap, because it'll only start an argument, and I'm too happy today to play the flame game.
But yeah, the world isn't the bowl of cherries you were once told it was. It never has been though. But the world is there. And only you can carve out your little niche. So you either sit around complaining, or you make it happen. Which will you do?
