Someone Needs To Write A Story About The Headless Horseman As An Undead Superhero Who Always Forgets

Someone needs to write a story about the Headless Horseman as an undead superhero who always forgets he's missing his head. He'll keep trying to head butt people or whistle for his horse, only to remember that he doesn't have a head. It'd start off with him writing a book about the inconvenience of being headless and follow his misadventures on his quest to find out where it went. All the while, he's battling people who want to take over the world or steal his head. He'll have great, heroic monologues in sign language that only get translated when someone else or the villain happen to know sign language. He also has to hide from everyday people because of the stigma created by the events in the Legend of Sleepy Hollow, which he swears (in sign language) to the authorities are terribly misinterpreted. People try to re-kill him, exorcise him, and capture him, etc. Demons and other undead try to take him back to the underworld. Aliens and super villains keep trying to destroy the planet. All he wants is to find his head and be able to enjoy a beer or two at the bar down the street from his apartment.

Has this ever happened to anyone else?

Has anyone ever come across a... uh... compromising video of some friends? They eventually got married, but the video is from before that. Has that ever happened to anyone else? It's kind of a weird situation.

It's sad providing so little to anyone else, they never even bother to message you.

I just learned there are truly people out there who don't believe the Sandy Hook shooting happened. I thought that was an Onion article gone awry. Huh. The funny thing is, the conspiracy theorists saying it was a government hoax to eliminate guns really don't get there is a much easier way to regulate guns. Why waste the money making something up when we could just repeal Selective Service? That ends the federal government "Militia" aside from screened and approved reservists and guard. That would put gun regulation squarely into the hands of each state. Unfortunately, the way the English language has been, the second amendment's "State" is not too clear. The way we think of it now is "State" equals country, "state" equals one of the fifty; however, as English mugged other languages in dark alleys and didn't have exceedingly cohesive conventions until the last hundred-thirty-ish years, we see a lot of nouns capitalized without any clear delineation as far as the Constitution is concerned. This brings us back to "State" as it is in the second amendment. If we say "State" defines the state's within the Union, then determining who belongs to the "Militia" is up to the states, ergo, states may dertermine who owns guns and what kinds. If we say "State" defines federal government, then the federal government need merely rescind Selective Service to completely remove the ability for any citizenry to justify the right to owning a firearm. The problem here is women are not held under Selective Service, so, unless a part of a guard or reserve, they, technically - I say that because it'd be impossible to actually execute this next part - could have all rights of gun ownership removed. This is why the morons who insist old, written documents be taken literally confuse me. I mean, I like my guns. I'd be really sad if someone had a legal basis to take my guns. That being said, a tragedy as relatively small in scope as Sandy Hook could never garner the backing of federally-mandated gun control across the country. Nothing short of a state-sized insurrection requiring the military to act against our own citizens could possibly do such a thing. Until then, there are much easier and quieter ways to repeal gun ownership. Now, litigation could go on forever as to whom the Founders' referred to when they said "State", but in the interest of the federal government's survival, it would likely choose itself (through the Supreme Court) as the object of the clause, thus removing any persons' ability to refute the legality of repossessing guns should the federal government choose to do so. Conspiracy theorists have an extreme narcissism problem, so they like to think they're smarter than the federal government, an amorphous entity with an unlimited amount of resources (it's still a cheap jerk 99% of the time) so compartmentalized, the President, itself (as a position, not person), actually does not have access to everything. These people think they've stuck it to the government and that one day, men in suits will show up to their door to say, "You found us out." Sorry to burst the bubble, but even state-sponsored hackers, who have discovered things worthwhile and we've physically found (well, CIA found) don't get that luxury. Sandy Hook happened. The Holocaust happened. The Russian Czars and Stalin massacring Russians happened. The Japanese destroying most of southern China happened. The Chinese dissenter massacres happened. The apartheid and genocides in Africa happened. The only thing that hasn't happened is conspiracy theorists stopped being basket-case assholes and started becoming actual investigators. Find us the Malaysian plane that disappeared. Find us that jewel from Titanic. Hell, if Sandy Hook didn't happen, physically find the kids who were involved. Find SOMETHING worth finding relating to any possibly-disputable subject. This arm-chair, tourist, know-it-all bullshit is exhausting. It's not helping anything or anyone; for the people affected by Sandy Hook, it's made it far, far worse in fact.

You people don't deserve shit

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-30339438

So, unskilled labor should be worth the cost of… what? Engineers? I worked at power plants as an operator for $15 an hour and only 40 hours a week.

I graduated college with a degree in power plant engineering and almost 500 hours as an operator, and ended up working at a gas station in Illinois for $8 an hour (about six months). They almost didn’t hire me because they thought I’d demand too much pay, but I just really wanted a job.

Being in the middle of two jobs and/or an uncertain future can be crumby.

The point is, I happily took the job.

So, you fuckers who have done absolutely nothing but complain and expect everyone else to bend over backwards to accommodate your habits of spending outside your means can go friggin’ bury yourselves alive to make way for people who will actually appreciate getting what they do.

Have any of you whiney fuckers ever met those poor bastards that pick strawberries all summer or stand on street corners in Texas hoping to pick up work who may or may not get paid something?

I have no guilt assuming you pieces of shit have absolutely no concept of the struggle others have. The only difference is they are willing to work and do their jobs well to get the barely survivable amount they do; it is no stretch to say many of them are trying to provide for more than just themselves and one other (You single mothers who think the world owes you something because you got knocked up and gave up deserve nothing [aside from rape victims because that really is not your choice]). My guess is that most of you people bitching about wanting professional wages while being shitty people to others (the word service does not end at just getting people their food on a tray) are trying to afford that new iPhone/iPad or something stupid and useless for your car.

There are so many factors that go into cost of living, and I know some people have a very hard time trying to manage it all alone. Had it not been for the good fortune of having financially stable family in that part who let me stay until I got that job at the gas station (before, luckily, getting a better job), I’d have been very hard-pressed. The difference between myself and you pieces of shit demanding pay many starting engineers get is that we take the time to budget ourselves. We go through absolute hell to keep our jobs (which, by the way, require a hell of a lot more skill, intelligence, and dedication). Sometimes, it does not pay off. Sometimes, the management are more of assholes than you people demanding $15 an hour. Sometimes, there really is no way to get help; however, that is, beyond a doubt, nearly impossible in this country.

If you have a minimum-wage job and cannot afford basic necessities (shelter, food, clothes), and you have cut everything unnecessary, apply for welfare. If you are on WIC, EBT (electronic version of food stamps), welfare, etc., with a minimum-wage job and still cannot afford to live by absolute necessities, you are a piece of shit and need to learn to live within your means. You are getting help from your own government, using money gleaned from the incomes of millions of other families (some who may be as well off, if not worse than yours), and squandering it away on things you either do not need or should not procure through your current methods.

I know some of people would complain they’ve tried everything. But, then, there are the people who have actually tried everything and didn’t just sit around whining and waiting for someone else to give them money to buy their iPhones, American Eagle, or stupid, fucking rims. Those people have my sympathy because they’re doing absolutely everything they can, and they actually have to recognize and appreciate the smallest things in life to be happy.

I had to basically beg for more hours at the gas station. Since I was new, they didn’t like giving me more than about 25 a week, and my financial duties were far more than most of these whiney fucks could ever imagine. My coworkers who didn’t feel like working gave me theirs. I came in when they called. I changed my phone plan, I sold my motorcycle (because I couldn’t even afford that, a cheap Yamaha cruiser), I got rid of my internet and TV, I ate nothing but spaghetti noodles and/or rice for a seemingly long time. But, I still paid my student loan and bills on time.

You fucking pieces of shit who think you’re special because you’ve done absolutely nothing worthwhile with your lives and demanded a respect you’ve never afforded to anyone else need to die to make room for people who will use those jobs to the fullest.

I’ve seen both sides of the coin. I’ve been well-off and sank to a mere few family members. I recovered without drowning too much. A little brain damage and emotional scarring, but I made it back (sort of).

Those shits who think they can live on easy street by dropping school and working at McDonalds while waiting for your get-rich-quick scheme to fruit and expect $15 an hour in the meantime just need to exterminate yourselves. So many people are worse off than you. So many people are more worthwhile than you. Take everything you possibly can from everyone else and give absolutely nothing back. They think their job at a cash register or fryer is too intensive and horrible? The technology we have can replace those pieces of shit with a vending machine. Why do we need - no - why do even WANT those people? Why? What the fuck is the difference between a vending machine and yourselves? They are a person. That’s the difference. They are no more than a flesh and blood representation of what a computer can do faster, cheaper, and more accurately. They are worth fuck all in the long run because I’m sure McDonalds will eventually replace them. In seconds, I was able to devise a system capable of doing my job as a gas station attendant, and I wasn’t the only one who did that; a coworker who was a college math major dropout (partied too much but still smarter than me book-wise) saw the same thing I did. What makes those people at McDonalds special? Nothing makes them special. Nothing about them makes them any better or worse or more equal than anyone else working an unskilled labor job. You all understand what that means, right? Unskilled labor means anyone at anytime could replace them because they are worth nothing. They are worth federally/state-mandated minimum wage, and that is all. If they aspire to be worthless and demand they deserve more, they are reducing our country’s value. They are as much of a leech as the parasites at the top. Both groups suck the life out of everyone else because they expect everything for nothing. Where’s the next place to make a quick buck in order to buy the next ridiculously overpriced clothing, the stupid electronics, and the entirely unnecessary indulgences? The best bet is to somehow sue a famous person by claiming they raped you 20+ years ago.

Until these people are of any value, they deserve nothing but ire for their greed. I’m surprised this pay situation hasn’t somehow turned into a race issue…

All these posts about depression and breaking down crying seem so foreign to me. When I break down, I could be mistaken as a pre-Joker Joker. Is that abnormal even by depression standards? Maybe when squared, depression becomes insanity...

The only thing you should be worried about is this question I'm about to ask you: Who wants a taco?
