There has been some funny shit in the news lately.

An Chinese jet ran into american spy plane over China.  How funny is that.  I wonder what an American spy plane was doing all the way over there.  It's kinda hard to lie about what a spy plane was doing.  We use these spy planes to transport shipments of blue jeans and surveillance equipment from greenland to korea.  This makes the US look super dumb.

What's kind of crazy is that the chinese army probably told the pilot to crash into the US spy plane so they could bring it down on Chinese soil without shooting it down.  Pretty crafty.  Now they're probably dissecting every inch of that plane for technology they can copy and learn how to fake out the US army.

The Americans don't want to apologize because basically that would be admitting they shouldn't be flying spy planes over China, and by extension, over anyone.  The question is, who gives them the right to be flying spy planes over other countries? 

The answer, me.  I'm glad they're spying on the Chinese, keep it up.  I want them spying on people.  We forget that a lot of the world is a tough fucking place.  There are places in the world full of people who don't have any reason to think you deserve all that nice shit what you got.  They're right, we don't deserve it, and they don't like us.  Even worse, they're are a lot of bad people in the world who massacre other colors, religions, tribes and kill pregnant women with machetes. 

The only reason they're not at your front door is because of everyone's big friend the US.  All this freedom we enjoy to watch sitcoms and choose between Coke or Pepsi is provided for by having the firepower to back it up.  Its pretty safe to assume that a lot of other countries in the world also want world domination.  I think its safe to assume China is one of them.

I'm not comparing a violent despot state to China, but they have a pretty bad human rights record.  They do enjoy squishing those tibetan monks with their tanks.

I don't want to have to learn to speak Chinese.  I like MSG as much as the next guy, as long as the next guy's last name isn't Chin, but I don't want to eat it all the time.  I like Chinese action films, John Woo and Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, but I also like comedies.  Try and name one Chinese comedy movie, you can't.  There are no Chinese 3 stooges, unless you count Chiang Kia, Mao, and Xiang Xio. 

Chinese culture is awesome, and unlike us SUV driving morons in the west the average Chinese person wouldn't sue McDonalds for spilling hot coffee on themselves.  But I like having these freedoms to criticize the inherent stupidity of everyone and everything.  Its ironic, that I laugh at the government that lets me laugh at the government.  That's because our system is far from perfect.  But by comparison it can look pretty good.

I don't like americans much, and I fucking hate my fellow canadians, but I'd rather live in the dumbest free country than the smartest totalitarian regime.

On a totally unrelated topic, I was just watching MuchMusic and those chicks in Destiny's Child have wild bodies.  I'm just saying they're cut.  Good for them.
