Raging The Universal Meme

What is it about female politicians that makes me wanna volunteer  to be that sexy boy toy that can imitate/roll play everything from Tarzan to a stud Native America Warrior type (with that brown red skin that shimmers as the sun falls and I'm on my horse. Really).

Every time a new and awesome Internet meme comes to be, I think, Richard "Papa Bear" Dawkins (1) should get a cut of the money made from it. Hell man, what did we do before Dr. Richy invented the word meme (I guess there was that spirit of the times word, but it's associated with that bad scholarship documentary that some of the atheist kids keep referring to). Anyhoo...

I wish I could find photo's of these super tiny private-ish lofty-deck platform things that were literally right on top of the river and they were romantic small (wink wink). These juggernauts were behind the tent campers and the romantics were right on the river. Still the water was, like 20 feet away. Awesome (and the bathroom access was the best of all the festivals I've been to ever ever.).

I was away all weekend at a super low key and pleasant three day hippie festival in the hills of super beautiful El Dorado County (I don't think I'm gonna share this one this time, I'm gonna keep this one to myself) and the first thing I came across on the interbuttz, when I came back, was my girlfriend, Ayaan, trending on twitter. I tweeted that it was awesome for my to see Hey Grrl, was' up, I'm Kriss trending on the Twitter's (I don't care that she is conservative, she's an atheist and yes, I'd do that), but I didn't read the "controversial" article in the new Newsweek and I didn't look into the hastag #MuslimRage.

I still haven't read the article, but I did come across The Best of the Hashtag #MusilmRage meme...and ya know what, it's funny.

This one was "I hate it when my camel doesn't wear a seatbelt." #MuslimRage

I worked at a hippie festival all weekend and the stand that I worked at sold sage (and healing crystals, I know that you are interested, but I probably won't blog about this one. Sorry)...

From the mighty Atlantic Monthly...

There is a  lot of it is Muslim specific stuffs like "dude is eating in front of me and it's Ramadan" #muslimrage, "I'm praying right next to a guy with stinky socks #MuslimRage,  but most of it is super general stuff that ALL peoples of ALL religions and All cultures experience; stuffs like I got cut off in traffic, the Internet is spotty here, the service at this place is terrible #MuslimRage etc etc etc...

The joke that I mostly got outta this meme is that everyone experiences and goes thru the same shit. In this election cycle division (the polarizing kind, not the mathematical kind) is, err, dividing this great nation. One side claims to be just, one side declares it's love for this country and one side claims to speak for the majority of the citizens (both sides do this btw).

I dunno, I thought that it was funny that one of the million gazillion  Internet memes can show the common humanity of going thru life's struggles and being on this earth together.

(1) My homies at Sac City Freethinker's have informed me that Papa Bear is coming to SF in a couple of weeks. This past weekend went so well, i think I'm up for a road trip to The City. Thanks Prozac.

* Surprisingly I didn't see too much stupid like "I shoulda used fresh batteries #MuslimRage (that is why the bomb didn't go off) or the super sexist "Dam she sounded sexy, but then took off her burka and fuck-en-aye-man, no bueno." #MuslimRage
