Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge

I think this will likey be a shorter post than some prior; re-reading some of my entries, they seem a bit disjointed and I wonder if it is self-indulgent of me to expect someone to read a multi paragraph entry; I myself really only commit to reading longer entries if they turn in to venom-laced diatribes, attacking one's real or perceived enemies. That said, I don't really have any enemies; well none that I am aware of. I am generally not comfortable knowing that someone is upset with me, and so I move Heaven and Earth in attempts at reconciliation. Perhaps that is due to my hyper-sensitivity to some nebulous sense of "karmic justice and/or realignment" (and yes RG, I know that karma can only be apportioned by the universe, haha).

In moments of reflection, I often find myself thinking about karmic justice and equality; some might ascribe it to the cliche of "fear of succeeding", but I do at times wonder if I deserve the success I have had so far in my young life. Well not that I question my talent or abilities, because I know that, for whatever reasons, I am quite well-suited for bond management...I guess it's more of an issue of material rewards incumbent in certain careers vs the tangentant - or parallel even - idea of "social betterment"...and the trade-offs that ensue. I mean, a person pursuing a career in teaching kindergaten has, really a priori, made the life choice to forego a "clear" path to financial renumeration...presumably having decided that the "rewards" of helping to grow and foster a child's development will outweigh the economic cost of such a job. And ,yes, I accept that this entire train of thought is endemic to the malaise of the late 20's, but I wonder if the sacrifices, either material or social-subjective, that are made when entering a career, are reconciled by those same people, say at age 40. Is that the root of the ever-explored "mid-life crisis", where the supposed crutches of money, in the instance of a money-centric career, begin to wear off, or the weaknesses of such begin to be unavoidable?

Well on a more gleefully ironic note, here are some website that I find to be TREE-MENDOUS:

1) ratemybody.com

Ok well this is definitely one of my not-very-guilty pleasures. Simply put, the dudes on here are fucking hot. No way around it. Nothing like a hot straight boy lifting up his polo (abercrombie-labeled and popped collar, natch) to show off his 6 or 8 pack. Damn. I have also become quite enthralled with a particular guy on here, who besides having the requisite absurdly chiseled abs and tight body, also describes his hobbies/interests as: nerd rock iconography, bourgeois materialism, and the New York Dolls. Ah, be still my PoMo heart :)

2) baconwhores.com

Well at first I had an internal debate as to the authenticity of this, but ultimately I decided that that is sort of irrelevant. It's just brilliant as it is, for so many reasons.


Ok, well I am going to post this now, because why not really, and will edit it later. Or perhaps not.
