WHY I HOLD PROFOUND DISDAIN FOR HOLLYWOOD

A continuing feature of this blog will be my descriptions of my pet peeves. There are a lot of them so this feature will give me grist for my blogging mill for a long time to come. I am irked and chagrined by many of the personages who infest the Hollywood movie making industry today, in all its aspects. Artistry and imagination have been surplanted by political posturing, computer generated gimmickry and rampant derivative copying of past superior works. The bolstering of political agendas has taken priority over the actual entertainment provided to the audiences. Sixty years ago, you could not get a job in Hollywood if you were a communist. Judging by Hollywood's current output, you cannot get a job in Hollywood today unless you ARE a communist. I feel, when I am viewing movies today (and television shows too, for that matter) , that I am being propagandized and manipulated by leftist and pro-gay idealogues. Why should I have to pay $8.00 or $9.00 for the privilege of being propagandized. The Nazis and the Russian Communists propagandized their citizenry free of charge. Where do these Hollywood poseurs get the nerve to hawk their wares as "entertainment" when they are, in truth, peddling outright propaganda? Why must the news media give such rapt and fawning attention to the pronouncements of every undereducated, mentally afflicted and morally debased personage that goes under the classification of "actor" or "show biz personality"? By and large, the phallanxes of Hollywood actors are made up of men and women who, at an early age, decided that cavorting before the camera was a worthwhile life goal. While young, tender and inexperienced, they were manipulated by the communist-homosexual-oriented producers and directers into a life of quasi whoredom. Many of these little quasi-whores had relatives, or cronies of relatives, within the entertainment industry and, of course, these connections took care of their own. It is a very well known fact that for every role, no matter how small or trivial, there are countless little quasi whores lined up and salivating for the opportunity to display their performance wares. Will they show a little tushy if the role calls for it? OF COURSE! Will they show a little titty (or a lot of titty) if the role calls for it? OF COURSE! Will they flash their genitalia if the role calls for it? WHY NOT! They are "artistes" and their work is "ARTISTRY"! They will do it in the name of "Art", for the sake of their "Craft" (as they call it). After the young quasi-whores have been through the mill for a while, some develop followings to the degree where they are given the appellation of "Star". This status allows them to offer up pronouncements on political, social, economic and moral issues which display their limited intellect but are nevertheless heralded far and wide. There is a long list of Hollywood poseurs and quasi-whores whose films I cannot watch due to the mental roadblocks to enjoyment that their personas have generated. To be sure, there are many other Hollywood "performers" that I cannot enjoy watching due to their dearth of talent and lack of physical attractiveness Not one dollar of this Retired Disagreeable Old Bastard's money will be spent on the works of prancing propagandists or talentless, repulsive buffoons. At least Josef Goebbels had the decency to engulf his fellow citizens with propaganda free of charge. The above mentioned want you to pay for the benefit of being propagandized. And, afterwards, they want to bask in the warm glow of your adulation. Every year this motley band of glorified pimps and whores prance over to the Academy Awards ceremonies where they give each other awards for propagandizing the American and international audiences. They confer "status" and "glory" upon each other and upon themselves so as to deepen the resonance of their sexual-political bullshit pronouncements. A mindless, conceited and opinionated shmuck with an Academy Award is still a mindless, opinionated and conceited shmuck after all is said and done. The dispensing of "awards" is a propagandist's a tool and a ploy to garner artificial prestige. Those presented with the awards are deemed have added 'prestige'. Naturally this gives additional stature to the awarding individuals for being in such an exalted position as to be able to bestow such prestige on the recipients. The pimps give out awards to the quasi-whores and to each other and all are fawned over by a compliant and fawning news media. It's Hooray for Hollywood and but it's the middle finger for the rest of us. That is all I have to state at the moment but there is much much more! The News Media, The Politicians, The So-Called Intellegentsia. They are all going to get their turn on the Disagreeable Old Bastard's shit list.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO BE PROFOUND, WITTY OR INCISIVE BUT AT LEAST BE READABLE!disagreeableoldbastard.blogspot.com/

Why are so many blogs vitually unreadable? I must assume that someone who expends the time and effort to generate such an opus is hopeful that someone else will actually read it. AND YET, a large proportion of the blogs I view utilize color schemes and font sizes that defy and mock the prospective readers. What were these imbeciles thinking? Who among us are going to strain themselves in order to read a blog that hurts their eyes and strains their patience? Not me (and not you either I will assume)! Why do these individuals use very light colors for script and very dark colors for background? Why do they use very small script? The answer can only be that they are SHMUCKS and just doing what comes natural for individuals of that mentality. I have special disdain for those who use a black background with white lettering. Just try to read one of those! It looks like the weblog of Satan himself! And what is one to make of those blogs that go on and on and on seemingly forever. Just scrolling through one of these masterpieces from beginning to end is an ordeal that I am unwilling to undergo for the meager or nonexistant entertainment value which such minds are capable of producing. I find that the driest, most verbosely bloated and inane blogs are the ones which do not even afford the reader a chance to comment. The pompous gasbags just want to show off their overvalued intellectual wares without entertaining comment or question. This is especially true of clergymen. There is a special place in BLOGGER'S HELL for those who just clog the blogoshpere with sites that promise interesting subjects in their headings and then turn out to be vast unnavigable catalogs listing multiple other sites in infinitely small typeface. INSIDE THE MIND OF A DISAGREEABLE OLD BASTARD will not strain your eyes, will not try your patience, will not under-estimate your intelligence and will not deny you the right to comment. It might anger you! It might insult you. It might go against ideas that you cherish.
But do not forget for one moment that I am the DISAGREEABLE OLD BASTARD and I do not shrink from controversy and debate!

BLOGGING AND AUTO-EROTICISM: PASSING TIME IN THE BRAVE NEW WORLD

DISAGREEABLEOLDBASTARD.BLOGSPOT.COM I went to Barnes and Noble today to have a latte and peruse a few computer manuals. I have been having problems with disappearing blogs. I have presented my words of wit and wisdom for the world's entertainment and benefit only to have them disappear off of the face of the blogosphere. No search engine remembers them. No inquiry gives an explanation for this disappearance and nowhere is a solution offered except in advertisements for programs that I would have to purchase. I entered into this hobby as these blogging sites were advertised as being free of charge. "Fine and dandy", I thought. "This could offer a pleasant alternative to watching the History Channel and/or engaging in auto-eroticism." It is good to branch out and have a variety of interests and activities. But, being a retired senior citizen, I am not about to start paying through the nose for cures for missing blogs. The books I read indicate that the phenomena of missing blogs is a widespread problem. I have surmised that this defect is most probably built into the system so as to induce sales of remedial programs. The Masters of the Blogosphere give you a shitty system free of cost and then offer you help for a fee. That's good business on their part but I'm not buying! I was getting frustrated and testy when I thought I was suffering alone. Now that I know that it is a widespread problem and just another example of playing against a rigged system, I can look at things more objectively and calmly. After all, bloggery is nothing but masturbatory massaging of the ego. We all think to ourselves, "Oh look at my blog! It is so wonderful". We are like doting parents who cannot admit to ourselves that our children are imperfect and mediocre. In reality, the ranks of blogmeisters are filled with intellectual dwarfs and castrati who shy away from controversial topics and expression. "What", you might ask, "is controversial?" The answer: Whatever the individual blogmeisters feel is controversial IS controversial. All of a sudden, one can find one's self persona non-grata as a commenter on any given site and on multitudes of sites. I thought to myself that, if I cannot be free to express the truth on someone else's blog, I will grace the world with my truth on my own blog. Well, if my blogs keep disappearing, I'll just say "The hell with this silly shit!" and go back to "the old standby". I won't have to go to Barnes and Noble to read a copy of "Auto-eroticism For Dummies". I'm already an experienced hand. Sometimes it's best to stick with what you know!
