Get Me Outta Here

I don't mind how I live my life
Without the luck you got
I ain't tryin' to keep in time
So just keep off my ride
You won't hang your rusty sign on me.

ok. i believe i owe the readers of this blog a nice long post.
esp since my last few posts were pretty... short.

so. nowadays.
what i have been doing.
bustling my mind with info,
info,
and more info.
that's all.
bleh.

And parents were just quarreling again.
like againnnnnnnnn.
sigh.
This kind of night sucks.
cause I always don't dare to sleep,
thinking that my dad will come in
with a knife and kill the whole family
or something.
I mean at this rate it's bound to happen -.-

*i don't want to die. not yet. not now.*

Anyway! been playing around StumbleUpon
anything when I'm trying to relax my mind.
Some interesting stuff:


The Financial Crisis, as explained to a 14 year old

Kevin: Imagine that I let you borrow $50, but in exchange for my generosity, you promise to pay me back the $50 with an extra $10 in interest. To make sure you pay me back, I take your Charizard Pokémon card as collateral …

Let’s say that the Charizard is worth $50, so in case you decide to not return my money, at least I’ll have something that’s worth what I loaned out.

But one day, people realize that Pokémon is stupid and everyone decides that the cards are overvalued. That’s right—everybody turned twelve on the same day! Now your Charizard is only worth, say, $25.

At the same time, you’re having trouble paying back the $60 you owe me. So what would you rather do: try and pay me back the $60 or just default and give me your $25 Charizard?

Olivia: I’d give you the Charizard.

Kevin: Exactly. Who wouldn’t? Now, the bank — I mean me — has lost $25 when I expected to make $10. What’s the lesson here?

Olivia: Pokémon is dumb

Really, our economy would be in a much better state right now if financial institutions had traded in something more stable,like Meowth cards.
