Ultimately, the controversy around PETA may have less to do with the organization than with those of us who stand in judgement of it-that is, with the unpleasant realization that “those PETA people” have stood up for the values we have been too cowardly or forgetful to defend ourselves.

Jonathan Safran Foer, Eating Animals

I adore this man and his brutal honesty.

I live in Blackpool, England, and I hate it because it’s fucking tacky.

Most people hate where they come from. Your go.

winnipeg, canada. the winters are too damn cold.

cowpens, south carolina. the. name. is. COWPENS.

what more of a reason do you need?

Cape Coral, Florida.

Old people, tourists, and gh3tt0/scene beans. whats not to hate

Rockville, Maryland

scene kids, ghetto trash, and strip malls. fun, right?

Nashville, TN

2 words….country music

Pflugerville, TX. Small town. There’s never anyone new to meet.

Catonsville, MD. It’s far away.

virginia. think about it… oh that’s right nothing comes to mind. and that’s why it sucks. there’s no reason to even put the specific place.

everyone hates where they live. everyone. i live in atlanta and i love it because the temperature in the winter time is perfect. it’s better than everywhere else in georgia because there are less hicks. i sometimes want to move other places (like everyone) just for a change but right now i’m okay with it. it’s a good place to grow up in.

portland, connecticut. it’s an extremely small and boring hick town. there isn’t even a movie theater, bowling alley, mall, or any decent place to hang out. since we have nothing else to do, everyone gets drunk and high in the woods. everyone is an asshole too.

I live in Portland, Oregon. AND I LOVE IT

Hi.  Welcome to one of the most fucked up videos on YouTube.

this is sooo fucked

I went to the woods because I wanted to live deliberately…
I wanted to live deep and suck out all the marrow of life!
To put to rout all that was not life…
And not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived…
Henry David Thoreau
Everything has its price
What’s more romantic
Then dying in the moonlight?
Tom Waits, Dead and Lovely
I write books because the book I want to read hasn’t been written yet.
