happy earth day

happy earth day, the one time a year when everyone gives a shit about the environment. oh wait, you didn't know it was earth day? me either. not until i got home, turned on my internets, and got bombarded with earth day crap.

so what have i done to help save the world since last earth day? i moved closer to work to cut down on my gas usage, and i've switched to water saving paper plates and plastic cups. i'm saving water by using disposable stuff right? fuck it, paper is a renewable resource, just because the people cutting down trees aren't replacing them, doesn't mean i have to do dishes by hand. fuck that shit.

just out of curiosity, why does earth day fall so close to 4-20? its hard for our consumer culture to make money off of earth day but 4-20 could be the next great american holiday. just imagine all the special 4-20 weed themed stuff you could produce and make millions off of. i find it hard to believe that hallmark doesn't support the leagalization of marijuana when they stand to directly profit from it. shouldn't major corporations be lobbying to legalize it when they stand ot make even more money? we're already celebrating it, yet they can't make money off of us because it's illegal. such a shame.

well, that's my soapbox for today. enjoy
