Supplement 1: On Life
Let me begin by giving you the following disclaimer: I am only a high-school freshman. I have never done anything particularly risky and/or interesting. If you listen to my advice against your own judgment, you are neither living your own life nor following the advice contained herein. That being said, I have decided to do a trio of supplement columns about my views on the title topics of this column (life, love, and hatred).
Having said that, I will now begin my rant. They say that the only unavoidable things in life are death and taxes. I find this isn�t true. Religion (whether your own or somebody else�s) and bad movies are also unavoidable. I must say that I�m not terribly fond of any of the things on the list of unavoidables, but I�ll start with death. Death is final so far as we know. Yep, that�s all I can really say.
Now on to taxes. Taxes are a pain, or so I�m lead to believe. Al Capone was jailed on tax evasion, so I guess that they really can�t be avoided. I am not a supporter of the tax system. Not because of how it�s set up, but simply because I�m very fond of my money.
Religion: I don�t like it. It�s all a bunch of fakes, including Lindeism. For those of you who aren�t familiar with Lindeism, it bases itself off of Christianity, but claims that a man by the name of Steve Linde was the second coming, and that Wednesday is the true Sabbath, and you are also supposed to wear orange on Wednesday.
Bad movies: I like them. Well, I like them so long as they�re the good kind of bad, like �Mitchell� or �The Tingler�. Of course, there are also some really bad movies, like �Manos: Hands of Fate�, �The Sidehackers�, and �Star Wars: Episode I�. I say that a constitutional amendment barring the production of bad movies is what this country (and all countries) really needs.
I think that�s about it� I know I didn�t really touch on life, so I think I�ll give all the advice I can:
- For those of you who think it sucks and isn�t worth it. Go ahead, try it. You won�t find much on anything on the other side, though�
- Go ahead and take chances, you�ve only got one chance, so why not give it your all?
That�s about all for this time. This is Orpheus, signing out for supplement one.
