Alternative Title: Rid the world of Emo

There's nothing that aligns the perspective of a kid gone wrong faster than a sensible dose of beating.

When I was a kid and wicked (in a bad, unawesome way), I wasn't asked to reflect on the morality of what I've done while listening to music, watcing TV and surfing the net grounded in my room. No. I was beaten up so bad, I knew if I kept on doing the same thing, I'd be a vegetable before I even hit my 20s.

Even now, when I think of doing something bad, I don't do it not because it's morally wrong or because I won't go to heaven. My brain hardwires bad things to be the primary cause of absolute pain. It doesn't get more effective than that.

Nowadays we're being bombarded by so much pussy propaganda telling us that positive reinforcement is the way to go. I suppose it could work - for certain things like animals in a lab who don't know any better. It will work on kids who get a nice warm rice meal at the end of the day at the factories. It will work for the dog who gets to eat meat more expensive than a full-protein human meal.

I'll tell you where it won't work:

KIDS WHO THINK GETTING THINGS THEIR WAY IS A RIGHT.

These assholes only know how to take things for granted. Like everything's been there for them all along and nobody has tried to give it to them at a cost. Soon enough, they start becoming so damn soft their perspective of suffering becomes the slight cracks in the edges of their comfort bubble.

I'd often see I-live-in-hell descripts from kids, as though they were actually living in labor camps. You live in a house, sleep in a dry bed and eat 3 meals a day. Where the hell is suffering there?

Because these assholes don't know the actual feeling of pain, the have to make up their own version of suffering to fill their needs to uhm well suffer (I think that's the trend lately) to be cool by listening to suffer-me music filled with breakups, the pussy-filled dark life and borderline fellatio of self absorption. Apparently, pain has become so scarce in their lives, they're now chasing it.

Kids today have such shallow definitions of pain and suffering (i.e. breakups, being grounded, scolded or failing in school) that when they start feeling actual pain, or worse, thinking that they do, they start trying to "escape" by cutting their lives short. Not that I'm against stupid people killing themselves but worse bit of it is they're also failing at sorting themselves out because they know shit about how life works (tip: overdosing cough syrup won't kill you, Hawking). The situation is so bad, we end up with failures who can't even fail properly.

This world is being turned to a soft-shell pussy taco world instead of the hardass oyster festival that it's supposed to be because of these kinds of thinkers (read: dipshits)

My solution? Start beating them up. All of them. Even if they're not your kids, it's time for some volunteer action. Negative reinforcement shall set society straight. Stop listening to those psychologists who look like nobody would bone them in a bar swimming with Ecstasy.

Negative reinforcment isn't degenerative. It's primal. All animals survive because of it. Pain tells you what to avoid, it's why we have the sensation in the first place. Make those kids learn it the hard way.

See parents? Beat your kids too much and they become hard rockers. Spoil them too much and they become Emo (read: societal trash). Well rockers are hella better than those assholes and their shitty music. You can't go wrong.

What are you staring at this sentence for? Get that beatstick of justice and start whacking away the path to restoration! (item in picture sold at nearest religious bookstore near you)

Self Quote of the Day:
When you absolutely have to divulge a secret to somebody, make sure you say it in a funny way. Chances are your secret will be safer because you know, people always have a hard time telling jokes to other people.

yep kids should be punished. but about break-ups, being scolded or failing not being the societal norms when it comes to the perspective of pain, let me just say that pain in general differs from person to person. to tell you the truth, i'm still corporally punished at 16. and yeah, it's pretty immature, but my parents get ticked off easily. at least my dad is. let's just leave people be on their insights of pain. we all have different thresholds with regards to pain. and there's nothing wrong with expressing "pain" in music. i think you yourself kinoko understand it, being an artist.

As a writer, I've always sought relief in writing. However, I make sure writing is still presentable (i.e. the pain wont be transferred to the reader)

Yeah you lose the side of your circles
That’s what I’ll do if we say goodbye

What the hell does that mean? That's not expressing "pain" IMO. We call that being retarded.

As for my case, from what feedback I hear, Im usually funniest when I'm depressed. (you should see me when I go postal)

The threshold of pain, like any human facet, is a relative factor. Keep exercising it and you'll push your limit. Ignore it and it will get atrophied. Getting beaten out of your senses will be a case of the former.

Im not saying one should not experience pain. I'm saying pain should be used for it's rightful purpose (to keep yourself away from danger, and to keep others from endangering themselves)

So now I have a clearer image of these Hale emos when they were children.

True XD

But still, I can remember the times when I fell under that emo category. I'm not sure about my writings then though, but I think you can almost hear "stab, stab, stab" being whispered in the background if ever you get to read my earlier writings.

I miss those days.

oh f*** hale ba?!

oh my frickin GOD...i thought i was defending EMO of the Taking Back Sunday category....oh my frickin God....HALE?! Ewwww....*pukes*

never liked Hale...and they're like...a boy band with instruments...except for the fact that they aren't pretty boys. XD

Corporal punishment is a good thing coz it teaches children what is right and what is wrong. Since children really on physical stimuli to actually understand. But corporal punishment on someone over 13 years old? WTF.

I dunno. I still think it's a case to case basis. My parents don't use corporal punishment to any of us (I have 2 siblings). And all of us turned out pretty well. But then again maybe it's coz we learned to appreciate the blessings we get in life and thank those who brought them. Well, if both your parents didn't have a job for 2 years and you miraculously got by, you'd learn to appreciate every help given by relatives. And you learn to be grateful enough to pay in kind once there comes a reversal of fortunes.
