A Swedish prechool has banned the word, him and her to provide a genderless role for children.

Here's something that I thought was such a piece of bullshit -

Egalia preschool, a taxpayer-funded preschool in the liberal Sodermalm district of Stockholm for kids aged one to six is among the most radical examples of Sweden's efforts to engineer equality between the sexes from childhood onward.

Staff try to shed masculine and feminine references from their speech, including the pronouns him or her - "han" or "hon" in Swedish. Instead, they've have adopted the genderless "hen," a word that doesn't exist in Swedish but is used in some feminist and gay circles and address the 33 kids as "friends" rather than girls and boys.

At Egalia - the title connotes "equality" - boys and girls play together with a toy kitchen, waving plastic utensils and pretending to cook. Lego bricks and other building blocks are intentionally placed next to the kitchen to make sure the children draw no mental barriers between cooking and construction.

Director Lotta Rajalin notes that Egalia places a special emphasis on fostering an environment tolerant of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people. From a bookcase, she pulls out a story about two male giraffes who are sad to be childless - until they come across an abandoned crocodile egg.

Egalia doesn't deny the biological differences between boys and girls - the dolls the children play with are anatomically correct.

What matters is that children understand that their biological differences "don't mean boys and girls have different interests and abilities," Rajalin says. "This is about democracy. About human equality."

Nearly all the children's books deal with homosexual couples, single parents or adopted children. There are no Snow White, Cinderella or other classic fairy tales seen as cementing stereotypes.

WHAT. THE. FUCK!!!!!!!!

Are you fucking kidding me!!!!!!

Some parents worry things have gone too far. An obsession with obliterating gender roles, they say, could make the children confused and ill-prepared to face the world outside kindergarten.

NO. FUCKING. SHIT!!!!!!

This is some of the biggest bullshit anyone can come up with. I get trying to teach children they can be whatever they want, within reason as there's just some things you cannot be, but to take their gender from them is bullshit.

We are all born male or female, with some who are born both due to whatever problems there are with the egg and chromosomes, but why is it wrong for girls to bake and raise babies, which they'll be doing when they grow up by the way and I agree with the parents who think it will confuse the kids when they go out into the real world.

It's the world who makes the gender roles. Sexist "societies" of men who don't want women to be C.E.Os and heads of businesses. Sexist aresholes who think women should be chained to the kitchen sink.

It does not matter WHAT you teach your child, the thousands of years of gender roles will always fall in line. As long as men are the sexist pricks they are, and women think they are not good enough to be better than they are and do the job better than men then there will be no change, regardless of what type of schools there are.

Unless people RIGHT NOW change their attitude, nothing will change.

Tv show themes. Have you heard them anywhere else that was just plain weird?

Lately, I've been noticing something strange.

Ads with music I've heard before.

Not just ordinary made for the ad music. Not someone's song that was used as the background music. But iconic pieces of music that shoud NEVER be used for such atrocities as ads.

TV SHOW THEMES!!!!!

A couple of months ago I saw a hair ad with the theme music of Magnum pi. And now, there's a beer ad with Knight Rider's theme.

I. KNOW!!!!!!!

Quite frankly, I'd rather be sitting down to watch the hairy goodness of Tom Selleck, and the pretty looking "before I became a freak" David Hasslehoff instead. These are iconic pieces of music that one instantly recognises and remembers the shows. They should never be used in ads, especially hair and beer ads.

What will they be using next?

MacGuyver? Bwitched? I Dream of Genie? The Cosby Show, Benson, Family Ties, Growing Pains?

Who knows, but unless the composer of the music is desperate for money and is selling it for ads then who knows what theme we'll be getting next?

Personally, I think it's an atrocity, a shame, disgusting.

I think it should be banned and the music should be owned by the creator of the shows since the shows are iconic as well. I don't care to hear the music on anything other than the shows when I watch them on tv!

How my writing is going. My books are coming soon, I promise!

In the weeks leading up to the release of my books I suppose I’d better start some writing posts.

Not so much about how, when where, although I suppose those questions will come up, but more along the lines of how far I’ve progressed to how far I’ve come.

When I wrote my first novel, THE ROAD TO VEGAS, back in July/August of 2006, I knew one day I’d be famous for it.

But no publisher wanted it.

I can see why.

While I believe the story is still good, it definitely needs an overhaul and will be the third book I release, sometime next year.

In Feb of 2008 I wrote my second, HOW I WON LOTTO, MOVED TO L.A. & MARRIED A REALLY HUGE TV STAR!

It took about three weeks of handwritten labour and then another three weeks of typing it all up. After two years of submitting a publisher wanted it, but also wanted to take another two years to publish it. After many a night of crying over either saying no, or paying an exorbitant amount of money to get it released this year, I said no.

Then last year came LIFE AND DEATH ADVENTURES IN LONDON, my third book which will be released at the same time as LOTTO.

I sent it on the usual round of agents and publishers and did think of digital, as Cyn-B-Demented suggested. But at the time, I wanted to hold an actual book in my hands, and see it on bookstore shelves.

Then one day, a few weeks later, I came across CreateSpace and realised I could hold my book in my hand, and not long after the realisation hit me, “Why am I waiting for a publisher to tell me I’m good enough?”

So I decided to do it all myself and have set the plan in motion. Especially since bookshops are a dying breed (my closest one has shut down) and the “BIG PUBLISHERS” don’t seem to want any new fiction from unknown authors anymore. But that’s a different story.

Back on the first of May my list was – get my books edited, get them formatted and get them uploaded.

Well, I’ve had one copy edited and the second has been sent off. I’ve decided to do the formatting myself, so that's in the next few weeks. I’ve had covers done for some time but have tweaked them to the specifications of the places I’ll be selling. I’ve downloaded and printed all necessary info from all three places about formatting and selling. I’ve also set up Facebook pages for the books and they will go live when the books are published.

So, while I have done so much, there’s still so much to do.

Yesterday was the day for one last proof read of LOTTO, and then sending separate copies into three separate folders, I’m going to attempt the formatting by following the instructions.

I think it went well. The instructions were somewhat easy but I wasn't able to do a table of contents and it took me well into the night.

In future writing posts, I’ll detail everything, but not down to the last crossed t and dotted i as that will be too boring, but I’ll definitely thank the other writers for their help and give links to their websites for future writers.

If you have any questions about my writing or anything to do with my books, let me know and I might start a FAQ page if anyone thinks that’s interesting enough.

What the fuck is happening in the world?

Half of Australia was underwater over summer and again now, Greece is rioting, Vancouver hockey fans destroyed parts of their city all because their team lost, countries are on fire, in drought, flooded, fighting, going to war (most of us), running their leaders out (Gaddafi), taking over countries (again, Gaddafi), going broke (most of us), having earthquakes and falling apart (New Zealand), people are getting fatter, political correctness has gone mental, stupid 22 year old bitches have a go when you’re eating your pizza, people jump on boats and expect to sail into another country for a happy free life and then burn down the buildings they get to stay in in detention, governments are cutting back on essentials, people have to pay more taxes, have less in their pensions or pay packets, can’t afford food (well then why are they so fat?), can’t afford to run cars, put our kids through school, run businesses, grow old, have a good life, yell at Dr Phil on TV, cry over Oprah leaving her show even though she has her own network, and generally bitch about every-fucking-thing because the fucking government is screwing the fucking country into the fucking ground and so we have so fucking much to fucking bitch about because the fucking world fucking sucks!

What the fuck is happening in the world?

Shopping centre bitches who blast the shit out of you because they think you're staring at them!

On Saturday I went shopping and decided to have a pizza lunch at the food court. So I'm sitting, not minding my business, because the owners of one of the stores was doing very dirty things in his store.

So this is what was going on. While waiting for my pizza I noticed that another store was cleaning.

The problem was, food was everywhere!!!!!

It didn't matter to the guy cleaning was using a rag wrapped around a broom and was cleaning the walls above the barbecue chicken, and the air vent above the chip vat full of boiling chips, and the fridge next to the chip vat. Crap would have been falling over all over the food since it wasn't covered.

But that wasn't the issue.

While eating my pizza I was still watching this guy clean his store. He'd serve inbetween cleaning and obviously my face pulling disturbed the psycho bitch who then had a go at me.

I couldn't hear her properly, being a noisy shopping centre, but I did hear her say, "just because I'm 22 and have a kid....blah....blah...blah".

The stupid bitch was so paranoid and arrogant she thought I was staring at her and pulling faces at her.

Never mind the fact she wasn't the only person in that general direction and I could have been looking at anyone.

She even got up and threatened to beat me up and I said "go ahead I'll call security and have you thrown out".

Clearly she had issues and being 22 with a kid and one on the way, she was at least 6-ish months pregnant, she was arrogant enough to think the world revolved around her and that no one else existed.

Fucking stupid bitch!

Ah people! They love telling you how you should run your own blog!

Ah people!

They love to make comments about what you post, regardless of whether they actually know you or not, because they just seem to feel ever so comfortable doing it.

Letting you know there’s something that YOU’RE doing that they don’t like and what they think of it. Believing you’ll take it with a grain of salt because they bothered to take the time to read your page in the first place and that you’d be grateful for their input, never minding the fact they don’t actually know you and really shouldn’t be opening their mouths and having an opinion about WHAT you do.

After all, it’s not THEIR blog.

It’s YOURS!!!!!

And you’re entitled to have what you want on your page, write what you think, feel, wish because it is YOUR page. Your personal diary page where you invite who YOU want into your world, if you invite them at all.

Regardless of whether it’s Blogs, Facebook, Twitter, Tumblr or any other page you set up for yourself to leave your inner most thoughts and feelings. Regardless of the fact you took the time to set it all up and decorate it the way you wanted, paid for a domain name (if you did), and run the damn things every day or every few days.

Posters who believe they have every right to tell you how to run it, what to write, and that what you did write was wrong, and how dare you and who the fuck do you think you are die in hell from a disease you filthy rotten fucking bitch.

Seriously, MY blog is NOT yours. If I want to write about subjects you don’t like, bypass my blog and don’t leave any messages.

There is a fine line between leaving your own thoughts on your own page about subjects that you feel strongly about, and blasting the crap out of people on THEIR pages for having their opinion instead of discussing the subject.

If you want to leave a post, talk about the subject, don’t slag me off for having an opinion you don’t agree with. Just because you don’t like it or agree with it doesn’t make it, or me, wrong.

And as for comments about particular things I do. I don’t need venom. I don’t need to know that you don’t like it. It’s MY blog, I’ll do what I want. I don’t need to know what you’re really thinking because it’s none of my business.


People who believe they can be rude to people they REALLY don’t know for whatever reason they think they have, actually can’t.

There’s no need to be rude because someone is doing something you’re sick of. That’s YOUR business, NOT mine.

Remember, MY BLOG, MY BUSINESS.

I don’t go to your blog and rant and rave about not liking what you’re doing, or slagging you off for what you believe, think, feel, or say, so why the hell do you feel the need to do it to me?

Regardless of whether you agree with the topic or not, it’s rude and disrespectful. If you don’t like people doing it to you, don’t do it to other people.


I’ve never done that to anyone whose blog I’ve left a reply on. All it proves is that you’re rude and uneducated and just feel like being mean because you clearly don’t like yourself and have shitloads of venom to spit at someone because you’re too scared to look in the mirror and face up to the truth about what and who you really are.

Remember, other people’s pages are none of YOUR business. You have NO right to dictate what they do with it.

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night and felt sick?

And you're not sure if it's what you've eaten that day, the day before, or the day before. You don't think you ate THAT much, but WHAT was it you ate? The two-bite size pieces of chocolate? Nutella on bread at 7:30 at night? The big lunch of steak, mash and gravy? The piece of chocolate chip cheesecake in the afternoon? Or the famous nachos you make for morning tea?

Who knows?

Well, you would since you ate the food, but could all of that make you wake up hot? Have stomach pains? Make you run to the toilet thinking you're going to vomit?

I'm getting quite sick and tired of that happening to me. It doesn't happen every week or every month, every six months maybe. I'll over eat for a few days and then BOOM! I wake up in the middle of the night feeling sick.

Clearly, while I have learnt to NOT eat too much of the carbs and junk, every now and then I still do it, NOT expecting to get sick. But sometimes, there I am, waking up hot and headachy, pains in my stomach, running to the toilet hoping I don't throw up, dealing with the stomach pains while my bowels decide how much they're going to let go of, and then when I'm done I crawl back into bed and cover up because I'm now cold and shaky.

The last time I was sick was the night of the 26/27th of December 2010 when it was an unfotunate combo of rich belgian chocolates and non-alcoholic alcohol.

Really bad combo peeps.

Seriously, I'm just really sick and tired of being sick and tired because of what I eat.

Ben Shapiro: Sesame Street is evil. All because I have a lame arse book to promote!

Ben Shapiro, who wrote a lame arse book called Primetime Propaganda, is claiming Sesame Street has to do with the liberal bias in the Hollywood industry. He spoke to the biggest creators in tv over the last 50 years and had them admit to him on tape that yes, they bias their programs in a liberal direction. Yes, they definitely discriminate against conservatism in Hollywood.

He also spoke to someone who was originally at Children's Television Workshop and that he claimed the whole point of Sesame Street was to cater to black and hispanic youths who "did not have reading literature in their house". So there's this soft bigotry of expectations that's automatically associated with Sesame Street.

Although this conversation at Fox News quickly went down the path of morals and political bullshit.

Sesame Street in itsef is not to blame for anything other than addicting our children to puppets called Elmo, Big Bird, Cookie Monster, and Bert and Ernie. Of which I do own three of the afore mentioned, but seriously, how did this guy ever get a book deal?

Blaming a show is nothing new. But blame the lame arse people behind them. Puppets are not the issue, the lame arse political agenda is.

I'm so fucking sick and tired of people blaming everything but themselves. I'm so fucking sick and tired of politics and the church getting in on it and everything else they think they have the right to get in on.

The church and the government need to piss the fuck off and leave the Street alone.

Sesame Street is not evil. Sesame Street is not to blame. Sesame Street is the bomb!

I can't belive I just said that....

I LOVE ELMO!!!!!!
