South Carolina state Senator Lee Bright's last name is quite misleading

Approximately 3 weeks after white supremacist Dylann Roof shot and killed nine African-Americans at the Emanuel African Methodist Episcopal Church in Charleston, South Carolina, South Carolina lawmakers finally debated whether or not to remove the Confederate flag from the state Capitol today.

How did the festivities begin? With Republican state Senator Lee Bright going on a crazy rant which could very well land him in the loony bin for at least 24 hours, of course. It went a little something like this:

"I watch the White House be lit up in the abomination colors! It is time for the church to rise up... Romans chapter 1 is clear, the Bible is clear. This nation was founded on Judeo-Christian principles and they are under assault by men in black robes who were not elected by you. ... Our governor called us in to deal with the flag that sits out front, let's deal with the national sin that we face today! We talk about abortion but this gay marriage thing, I believe will be one nation gone under like President Reagan said. If we're not one nation under God, we'll be one nation gone under. And to sanctify deviant behavior from five judges, it's time for us to make our stand, church! It's time to make our stand and we're not doing it. We can rally together and talk about a flag all we want but the devil is taking control of this land and we're not stopping him! Now, I believe that the Christ teaches us to love the homosexual, but he also teaches us to stand in the gap against sin. And we need to make our stand. I know how people of all colors feel about this. Let's find some way to deal with marriage. If we're not going to find some way to deal with marriage like our forefathers did or push back against a tyrannical government like the founders of this nation did, let's at least not put these citizens in South Carolina in a position where they've got to choose between their faith and their jobs."

Yes, when debating about whether or not to remove the Confederate flag from the South Carolina state Capitol, Lee Bright ranted about homosexuality, the legalization of gay marriage in particular. Like I said, his last name is quite misleading. Lee Loony, Lee Douche, Lee Insanity, or Lee Nutty would have been much more fitting. Well, given this crazy rant, I imagine Lee (not so) Bright would make these statements when asked to debate the following topics:

Subject: The designated hitter rule in baseball

Bright: "When I hear the word designated hitter, seven words immediately come to mind: Global warming hoax! I could say more, but I don't think any more needs to be said!"


Subject: Twitter

Bright: "No, I don't do Tweeter, just like I don't do abortions! Planned Parenthood tweets about abortions all the time and that just ain't right! I don't like Planned Parenthood, don't like abortions, and don't like Tweeter!"


Subject: Rap music

Bright: "The only people that speak as fast as rappers are those illegal immigrant Mexican people - you know, them and their Spanglish! They're stealing jobs away from good hard-working people like you and me! Fact!"


Subject: Porn

Bright: "Yeah, I went to high school porn. That was one of the best days of my life! Sometimes I wish I could travel back in time and go do the porn thing every day!"


Subject: Christianity

Bright: "I'll put this as simply as I can: Providing equal marriage rights for gay couples is tyranny, but forcing the Christian religion down the throats everyone in this country is equality!"


No, Lee Bright he is not...

Boycotting jukeboxes because of TouchTunes

I love music and enjoy hitting the bar(s) over the weekend, so naturally, when the mood strikes me, I've never been coy about playing some songs on the jukebox. This past Thursday, a friend of mine turned 50, so several friends of her's, including myself, all met up to celebrate the occasion. At around 9:30, a friend of mine and I both chipped in $5 to play some songs on the jukebox. Four hours and 231 skips later, we gave up on hearing the songs we had selected, and went home knowing we had just wasted $5. This wasn't the first time such a thing had happened to me (and many others), and due to that, I'll be boycotting jukeboxes. Why? The scam known as TouchTunes. You see, here's how the plot typically breaks down. A person (or group of people) downloads the TouchTunes app on his/her phone, consumes one too many adult beverages, and due to this, has less care for spending extra money to hear the songs of their choosing right NOW. That's the thing with TouchTun...

The difference between "looking" and "checking out"

I may be way off with these numbers, but it's my approximation that at least 75% of individuals whom are involved in a serious relationship feel it's perfectly acceptable to "check out" members of the opposite sex they're not involved with. Meanwhile, approximately 25% either don't feel this is acceptable or aren't sure about the matter. I hadn't thought about this matter for a while, but since I've been dating a woman for about 8 months, the topic has been pondered about some. When reading or hearing others discuss this very issue, I often times hear comments similar to the following: "It's human nature to look." "There's nothing wrong with checking others out. I'm sure he/she does it too!" "It's fine to do it. Just don't tell your boyfriend/girlfriend about it or do it in front of them!" "It's natural to find people attractive." When observing the array of comments, I i...
