sick and tired of being sick and tired

You know what I'm tired of, not only tired, sick and tired of?  It's hearing people tell me that they are tired of something.  So what?  Get over it.  Why should anybody care what you are tired of?  I'm tired of Trump's ignorant rants, and I'm tired of hearing people talk about Game of Thrones like it is the new Shakespeare, and I'm tired of various aches and pains that come with the aging body.  So what?  Oh I guess I complain about Trump's rantings, but I think I tell why. I don't whine that I'm tired of it, like everybody ought to stop and say oh look, Uncle Ken is tired of this or that, maybe we should stop doing it.  Oh I know it's just a figure of speech, but it's a stupid one.  We ought to just shitcan it and find a more meaningful figure of speech.  Why?  Because I am sick and tired of it.

Well I spent maybe an hour probing into what is racism, and the next very morning, like a cat bringing in a dead mouse, Beagles drags in this quite from some guy he sees as his spokesman and all\of a sudden there is this new word racialist.  What the hell is a racialist?  Not a racist clearly because the esteemed McCarthy speaks of racists and racialists.  Beagles dragged this dead mouse into the ivied halls so I think it is incumbent on him to supply a definition of the word, because I am sick and tired of doing all the legwork for the Institute.

But the trope-troubled McCarthy does illustrate that point of mine that my ilk errs when it spreads the charge of racism too broadly.  See, now we've made him sick and tired of us, though I expect that he'd be sick and tired of us even if we didn't speak a word. 

I had Beagles pegged as a IV, but I see that he claims III.  According to that theory the races can never get along because one will always be trying to top the other.  It is the III's of both races that keep the races at each other's throats and I, for one, am sick of all the trouble they cause.

Beagles's voting agenda, as he succinctly expressed it a few posts ago, is that he will always vote for the republicans because the dems want to take Old Betsy from him, and nothing can ever change his mind about it, so it's not like there is much to discuss there.


I'm a bit cranky today because the dreaded heat dome is just six hours away, and even though it has not yet arrived I am sick of it, sick and tired, fucking sick and tired, fucking sick and fucking tired.
