Watching 'Yellowjackets'

 I started this past week watching the series 'Yellowjackets'.  I'm up to the 4th episode presently.

In describing it?  Well....it's a 'Lost-lite' type script.  Some teenage girls soccer team has boarded a crappy low-budget plane to fly over to some championship game.  It requires the plane fly over some edge of wilderness of harsh-Canada (not regular Canada).  There....it crashes.  After five days, they realize that no one is looking for them, and they will be spending most of a year....in some 'Lost-lite' atmosphere.

Then the series takes off to the current society (20 years later)....after their rescue.  Each episode is 50/50....in the past and in the current time.  

Soap-opera-like script?  Well....yeah.

A bunch of mixed-up women in their late 30s?  Yeah.

The script not making much sense?  As bad as 'Lost' was on the script giving you no real facts....this show goes along the same route.

This Misty-character?  She's crazy but likeable.

This Lottie-character?  She's schizophrenic and highly dangerous....especially without meds.  

The thing is.....TV is so crappy that crazy shows like this survive on.  

What Exactly Is A Phobia?

 Over the past decade, I've seen a lot of uses of the word phobia, and I've reached the point of realizing these people for the most part....don't grasp the word/meaning.

When you (yourself) have a phobia....it means you have a irrational 'FEAR' (not hatred) of something.  It might be of spiders, high places, darkness, or police.  

If you have a phobia....then it means that it's treatable by some medical staff.  

If you encounter someone with a hatred for something, and they sit there to explain it in details....with logic, then you can't reshape this to say it's irrational.  If you did....you'd only be faking yourself out.

So all this phobia-phobia?  BS?  Yeah.  It's mostly appearing to be irrational fear of irrational fear.  

The sad thing is....you can't really explain this to people because their rationality has been compromised to such degree.....they'd argue there is a phobia over people who they see on the street....wearing shoes of an Italian brand-name....over an American brand-name.  

My Solution For the Trans-People

 After long consideration, I've come to the perfect solution to make everyone happy.

If you were desiring to be trans....you'd go to a registered hypnotist and just get the full five-star premium job....without the surgery, drugs, hormones or constant visits to reinforce your beliefs.  

The hypnotist would just convince you that all was well....you were trans, and life was perfect.  Maybe once a year, you'd revisit the hypnotist....to update your situation.

I also have an idea to lessen mass murders.....that all Americans would go to a hypnotist to lay a 'script' in your mind....that you can't kill anyone, for any reason.  

Course, the problem is....who would trust the hypnotists?  

My Business Idea

 It came to me this morning.

You go to California...spending four weeks robbing clothing shops each day....at least four to six stores per day, and exiting with $900 of clothing per 'trip'.  Daily-take?  Near $5,400.  At the end of the month, you have $162,000 of value.

You load this all into a U-Haul trailer, and exit the state.  

You set up a shop in some rural area of Arkansas or Mississippi,  where questions won't be asked.  

You sell the items for 90-percent of the listed price from before....making around $150,000 over six to eight weeks.

You let your cousin run this shop, then you return to California for a 2nd,  3rd, and 4th trip....usually every two months.

In three years, you've made enough to retire and you halt the U-Haul robbery routine in California.
