<p>I've made my choice about who I'm voting for in November. I've also stated that no candidate will ever be the perfect candidate either. I'm supporting Obama because I feel there is just more "hope" there. I don't agree with all of the policies, but I agree with enough of them. I agree with some of McCain's issues, but he doesn't inspire. Maybe 8 years ago, I would've been more apt to get behind him. Actually, in 2000 I was behind McCain and then Bush and Co screwed him over big time. Oh well, that's politics, right?</p>
<p>So, I had been curious about delving into Joe Biden's past a little in regards to the infamous "credit card bankruptcy" bill from 2005. It's reared it's ugly head just a little bit since he was announced as Obama's running mate. I found quite a bit online about it, but one of the more <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/jackson-williams/joe-biden-true-friend-of_b_120776.html">recent entries was on Huffington Post</a> and it's not kind. This was a terrible bill and according to HuffPo it was supported by many Republicans (including McCain) and <em>too many</em> Democrats (including Biden). </p>
<p>As a person who has had credit card debt in the past and has overcome it, I hate credit card companies. I know their shady tactics and how they would prefer you be late on your payment and only pay the absolute minimum balance in order to charge you a late fee and keep charging you a high interest rate respectively. So, I get a little riled up when I read about legislation that puts even more money in the hands of credit card companies, their lobbyists and the politicians who accept their "gifts". </p>
<p>I'm still onboard for the "change we can believe in" vote, but I'm watching ever more closely. I'm beyond taste-testing the Kool-Aid, but merely sipping on it at this point. </p>
<p>That's all.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img src="http://juanfgs.wordpress.com/files/2007/12/captain-obvious.jpg" alt="OMG captain obvious" align="right" />Como veran hace mucho, muchísimo que no posteo nada "técnico", la verdad tengo un buen motivo, es que me estoy cansando de ver por ahí weblogs que repiten info, indiscriminadamente, la verdad no entiendo el punto, no todos queremos saber que te enteraste que con el "ls" podés ver archivos,  que aprendiste a instalar apache, linkea al how to, y ahorrale al mundo el palabrerío inútil. Por eso es que prefiero no decir nada y seguir aprendiendo, si alguien necesita algo, prefiero explicarlo en persona, con la mayor humildad posible (complicado, ya que se que soy un capo ;-) ).</p>
<p>No voy a poner un tutorial de X librería <strong>a menos que aporte algo nuevo</strong>, <strong>curioso</strong> o <strong>que no e</strong><strong>sté cubierto por la documentación actual</strong>, bajate la documentación, está mucho mejor escrita que algo que pueda hacer yo en los 10 min que le dedico a mi weblog, no voy a escribir como hacer un blog en 5 minutos, es al pedo, googleá y vas a encontrar 1000 artículos al respecto, de los cuales 10 son buenos y el resto copy&#38;paste asqueroso.</p>
<p><img src="http://juanfgs.wordpress.com/files/2007/12/329414374_8643082d1c_m.jpg" alt="you know what really grinds my gears?" align="left" />Escribo esto porque hay personajillos con grandes complejos que les encanta presumir sobre cómo les salió instalar X boludez, realmente no entiendo el punto, pero supongo qieren que les digan: "OMG u r 1337 H4X0r!!!!oneoneone", yo digo ¿qué necesidad de floodear la internet con contenidos inútiles por un simple problema psicológico? ¿no?.</p>
<p>Obviamente este artículo como tantos otros lleva el tag de "rant" :D</p>

<description><![CDATA[You Know What Really Grinds My Gears (named after the segment on Family Guy, of course) is a new fea]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_mTIR6JMpzsI/RzKqcnBjsBI/AAAAAAAAA7o/EYL8LEGlhGQ/s1600-h/grindsmygears.jpg"><img style="display:block;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_mTIR6JMpzsI/RzKqcnBjsBI/AAAAAAAAA7o/EYL8LEGlhGQ/s320/grindsmygears.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">You Know What Really Grinds My Gears (named after the segment on Family Guy, of course) is a new feature that will run whenever the fuck we want it to...but usually on a slow news day. It will focus on those pet peeves that, well, really grind your gears. It likely won't be sports-related. Fuck sports. This isn't a sports blog anyway...Oh. Right. Um, yeah, we'll see about making them sports-related. If you have any suggestions -- or would even like to guest write one! -- send your submissions to zachls5@gmail.com or Ballhype us or something Internet-y like that.</span>
<div>You know what really grinds my gears?</div>
<p>
<div>Tipping a bartender for a bottle of beer.</div>
<p>
<div>That's fucked up. It's like reverse-etiquette bending you over and sticking a Louisville Slugger in your ass.</div>
<p>
<div> </div>
<p>I know you're supposed to tip a bartender, it's how they make their money, yada, yada yada. But sometimes they have to work for a tip, they can't just expect it.
<div> </div>
<p>
<div>Like say I walk in to Trendy Bar A where I have to pay $5 for a Bud Light. Paying $5 for a Bud Light fucking grinds my gears too, but that's for different post.</div>
<p>
<div> </div>
<p>So I pay my five bucks and then have to tip the bar keep a buck to twist off the fucking cap?! That's bogus, man. I mean, I guess you're paying for the service and courtesy of some one twisting that cap off for you. Sometimes I need to use my shirt, and then I look like a fucking pussy. Nobody ever wants to look like a pussy. Especially out at a bar.
<div> </div>
<p>
<div>Now, what if I'm ordering some local microbrew from the tap? Then I'm paying for the douchebag bartender to tilt my fucking pint glass while he pulls a lever? That's sorta messed up too. </div>
<div> </div>
<p>
<div>If he's gonna make me a Martini or a Mojito or put some top shelf rum in my Rum 'n' Coke instead of the crap on the rail, then I'll happily tip him. I'll even send a hooker his way if that's what he wants. I want to be able to feel good about giving a tip.</div>
<p>
<div> </div>
<p>Once I was at a <a href="http://www.beckettsirishpub.com/">trendy Irish bar</a> that sucked my cock. I fucking hate this bar, yet often end up there. I ordered a shitty bottle of beer and it was like $4.50. Even though all the bartender did was twist off the cap, I still tipped him, even though it fucking grinded my gears. I respect etiquette, even when it assrapes me.
<div> </div>
<p>
<div>But I gave him a five, he gave me back 50 cents and I left the two quarters on the counter. He looked at me, gave me fuck-you eyes, and then splashed the coins back in my direction.</div>
<p>
<div> </div>
<p>That really fucking grinded my gears. Asshole was expecting a buck for twisting off a cap. That's bullshit. Work for your tip. I'm gonna fucking end that guy. He was a total cock-weasel who has an inverted penis.
<div> </div>
<p>
<div>Yeah, so tipping for a bottle of beer is pretty week. Especially when they expect it. That's fucked. Asshole bartenders suck, too.</div>
<div> </div>
<p>
<div>And that, people, is what really grinds my gears.</div>
</div>
