Note: unfinished post. Still waiting, dear worst-reader. Still waiting for the moment of zen. Or am I waiting for an awakening? Nomatter. The deluge of arm-chair spying lead by some whipper snapper from god's country, better known as herenorthere, who now lives in god's former country, has no end. It's as though the floodgates of … Continue reading The Aggrandisement of Nothingness

Plunderful
Take into consideration, dear worst-reader, before you read the link below, that I am from Washington DC. I went to dumb-down school just south of the nations capital and my US address (when I'm in the US) is just east of it. I also lived in Virginia for a short stint of this/my useless-eating life. Boy, do I … Continue reading Plunderful
3rd World Corporate Statehood
You gotta luv this stuff. Example upon example of the demise of what might have been a great experiment. A country experiment, that is. Or. Wait. A nation-state experiment. Nomatter. As far as the examples go... Here just a few more examples of American't in its 3rd world statehood: ISIS or ISIL, Ebola in Dallas, … Continue reading 3rd World Corporate Statehood
Miswant
What about those moments where it's no longer a matter of being confused about crying or laughing? I worst-mean, on the one hand this was bound to happen: a lesbian couple fulfilling a dream but only to wake up to that dream's reality. On the other, I'm laughing my ass off at a society/world where … Continue reading Miswant
Brat Bier Und Witz
"Die Behauptung kommt in die erste Zeile. Der Journalismus in der letzten Satz." Translation of above text: The statement comes in the first line. Journalism is in the last sentence. The moment the sketch (below) goes black and white I started to worry. For you see, dear worst-reader, there are things to be afraid of in this world--and … Continue reading Brat Bier Und Witz
Getting Old Is A Bitch
Started The Atlantic article but was quickly bored of it. Set it virtually aside in a to-read-later pouch on my iPad. But then was listening to a podcast while walking Groger, my half Doberman, half Pug killer puppy. The podcast reawakened my interest in The Atlantic article because, well, the podcaster was able to break through the … Continue reading Getting Old Is A Bitch
The Art of Getting It Wrong
Nice try sassy-brit-boy. I mean. Seriously. When are people gonna wake up to all these British accents on American't TV? Are they cute accents? Does the way this guy talk sound more convincing somehow? Nomatter. The thing to worst-remember about the vid-link below is how sassy-brit-boy gets only part of it right. For example. It's not an … Continue reading The Art of Getting It Wrong
Examples Of Ignorance
It's 2014--if you've forgotten. Or maybe you avoid the clock all the same. Nomatter, dear worst-reader. For today we have yet another example of American't ignorance and how that ignorance rules/governs everything. Or maybe not. First. The situation. Or should I call it: Reality? Either way, in 2014 a huge chunk of America still has … Continue reading Examples Of Ignorance
Fly Change Not
At last count I've been flying across the Atlantic at least once a year, mostly between FRA and the mid-Atlantic coast USA, for the better part of twenty-five years. If I worst-say that's a quarter century, does that make it sound more significant? But these trips go even further back to when I was a … Continue reading Fly Change Not
Politics For Stupid
Where the lost go? The road to nowhere. The small (minded) animal running in his run-wheel. And. Worst-writer is never surprised when he comes across yet another article that misses everything it should or could be about. But don't get me wrong. I'm not an opinion killer--like I was way back when I worked for … Continue reading Politics For Stupid
Another Mirror
Do you really believe Ferguson is a problem because of militarizing the police? Although I worst-believe that military equipment should not be trickled down to the common folk of a war-mongering nation, the police have been militarized since I can remember--the only difference being their equipment changes with every war. The fact that war-mongers made money … Continue reading Another Mirror
Disingenuous Defined
While reading this article I couldn't help but think about the people who came up with publishing something like this and then I tried to worst-imagine the people who read it (excluding moi, of course). I mean, this paper is the only "national" paper in the country. It's available at newsstands everywhere, in every hotel … Continue reading Disingenuous Defined
If I Were A Rich Man
Normally I praise the place I live because it is a pretty good example of a country governed by law & order. For the most part that holds true because Germans are still rather obsessed with Ordnung, although this is waning. More importantly, Germans are obsessed with maintaining the machine that provides them so much sustenance: the German nation-state-corporation … Continue reading If I Were A Rich Man
When There's Nothing To Fall Back On
Why is it worst-writer loves reading about demise? Being worst doesn't necessarily mean I'm one of them negative types. Or does it have anything to do with the fact that I was an Aussteiger* before it was fashionable? Now that I see all this demise taking place in real-time, I get a kind of a … Continue reading When There's Nothing To Fall Back On
Results of Entitlement Culture
A customer service rep is hired to retain customers (see link below). She or he is a retainer. Sounds kinda funny, eh? There is a job title like 'corporate retainer'. Yet when I think about it I also think about Harvey Keitel as a Cleaner. I guess I'm in to opposites this morn. Been a … Continue reading Results of Entitlement Culture
Get Comfortable With Your Griftopia
"America's dirty little secret is that for this small group of plugged-in bubble lords, the political system works fine not just without elections, but without any political input from any people at all outside Manhattan. In bubble economics, actual human beings have only a few legitimate roles: they're either customers of the financial services industry … Continue reading Get Comfortable With Your Griftopia
You Have Been Serviced
First, dear worst-reader, why is jet-lag when traveling from west to east the worst? Is it because of the strange "-1" designation on my travel itinerary? PHL > FRA on Monday afternoon but you arrive in the wee-hours on Tuesday morn at destination. I think I crossed six time zones. I've been doing it for twenty-plus years. … Continue reading You Have Been Serviced
Last Day Till When
Day before embarkation. Or is it disembarkation? Why do I always get those two screwed up? Oh well. Leaving home tomorrow morn. It's time to go back to my other home, the expat home, reality. I guess. I'm a man of homes. And. At least I don't shed tears about it (anymore). That's the great … Continue reading Last Day Till When
Girl Gurl Haters
Boy do they get this wrong. What's especially wrong is utilizing a picture of the communist best gurl-friend turned capitalist-lover as an example of Eurowasteland equality. Germania is a patriarch society. Period. It is a boy-club and it means nothing that its political polit-büro leader is female. Having lived in anti-feminine Germania for the better … Continue reading Girl Gurl Haters
Happy Failure
Schadenfreude? Maybe. Read link to article below and the links it links to. I know that wishing ills to others has its payback. But I guess I'm willing to accept that consequence. At least in this case. What better example is there of the greater-than-though meritless workforce of my grand united mistakes than those who … Continue reading Happy Failure
Weltmeister – Game of Face Punch
Gotta hand it to the Krauts. Even wore an old t-shirt yesterday that read, in red on black with a hint of gold, 'Let's Go Krauts'. But the truly amazing thing about the win was how the Germans conducted themselves through out the tournament. It's that thing that turns me off the most about foosball. … Continue reading Weltmeister – Game of Face Punch
Almost Fail of the Day #16
Trying but unable to find the outcome of the argument between Jefferson and Madison regarding whether or not the earth belonged also to the dead. For you see, dear worst-reader, according to one or both (founders) there is an advantage and a disadvantage to declaring the dead property owners. Gee, I wonder why. Rant on.
Bank Real Concern
Yes. It's true. Banks are really concerned about your welfare. They care about you. They care about you as much as any corporate institution can care. Most importantly bank institutions care about you so much they will go to great lengths to make sure you and their money is ok. And for that we should be … Continue reading Bank Real Concern
Solar vs Fracking
Found my (worst)self at a community meeting yesterday where a solar project was being presented to members. Living in Germany gave me a bit of an advantage, since that country is somewhat ahead in utilizing the sun for power--even though the friggin sun rarely shines there. What astonished me about this meeting was how the audience, mostly retired … Continue reading Solar vs Fracking
Fail Not Alone
America was a country founded by failures who could not get along in the Old World and who came to a wilderness because there was simply no place else to go. A fascinating article that I wish I read when it was first published in 1976. Wow. What was I wasting my youth on in 1976? … Continue reading Fail Not Alone
