With it being my birthday today, here is a special birthday edition of "Useless RANT!" If you don't know what to get me just keep reading. So without further ado......................

Issue#4: A - Birthday gifts no one wants...

I am sure most of you have recived your fair share of bad gifts. Be it from reletives, friends or neighbors. There's nothing like the feeling of dissapointment on your special day. If you can't think of anything to give the person, chances are you'll be better off just giving them the money you planned on using to buy them a gift instead of some generic t-shirt. I mean who wants a f***ing shirt for their birthday!? If I wanted a shirt I would go out and buy my own.
I once recieved pajammas for my birthday. What the f**k am I supposed to do with pajammas!? What, I have to change my clothes now before I sleep? Stupidest idea ever.  Piece of shit didn't even fit me. Most people will resort to "It's the thought that counts." Well I must have been an after thought for you if you're giving me a damn t-shirt. The best birthday I had was where I got money. Not because I made alot that day, $500 if you have to know, but it's because the people were honest enough to say "Buy your own damn gift." Except for one guy, he gave me a belt. I was like,"Yeah thanks
, but I try and make it a habit of weraing pants that fit." Who gives a belt as a birthday gift?

B - Birthday parties are overated

Whenever someone has a birthday, they usually want to have birthday party. As a kid I too wanted a party, but now that im older I don't see the point in having one. All you do is eat. Some celebration that is, I don't even know half the people that come and they're the ones who give me t-shirts. Most of the time the people are just free loaders anyway. They're there just for the food, not for the celebrant. Even your friends are there just for the food. Would you go to your friends party if there was no food?

C - Fullscreen sucks
Let me start by saying this:

I hate it when people say they would rather watch fullscreen (hence forth known as foolscreen) because there's no black bars on the top and bottom of the screen. You can't fit a rectangle in a square, thats why there's black bars. These people don't relise that they're losing up to 44f the  movie. I don't know about you, but that's a whole lot of movie. Unless it was shot in foolscreen, then I don't see a reason in buying anything in foolscreen. It even looks ugly. They have to use what is called "Pan & Scan", they zoom in real close so that it looks like a square and have to pan if it's missing important info during the scene. Here's an example:

You see where that red box is? That's all you get in foolscreen. So if I hear you say foolscreen is better then I will rip your eyes out of your sockets.

Moral of the story is: Don't give dumb gifts. Birthday parties suck. Watch WIDESCREEN.

dang i just realized that i haven't read one of your rants in awhile. anyway....i totally feel you on sucky birthday gifts. that's why i didn't tell anyone til the last minute that it was my birthday so that they wouldn't have time to buy me a dumb shirt and instead give me money....besides they end up giving you more money than they would actually spend on a gift coz people are cheap but not cheap enough to ACTUALLY give you $10...and i love being older...coz the lowest amount of cash they give is $50...woohoo!!!! oh yeah i'm a fan of the widescreen now...i hate watching with my parents coz they ZOOM IN!!! so that it'll be full screen and we end up missing all this stuff coz even the subtitles get cut off..
