OBITUARY FOR THE LATE MR. COMMON SENSE

Today we mourn the passing of a beloved old friend, Common Sense, who has been with us for many years. No one knows for sure how old he was, since his birth records were long ago lost in bureaucratic red tape.

He will be remembered as having cultivated such valuable lessons as: Knowing when to come in out of the rain; why the early bird gets the worm; Life isn't always fair; and Maybe it was my fault.

Common Sense lived by simple, sound financial policies (don't spend more than you can earn) and reliable strategies (adults, not children, are in charge). His health began to deteriorate rapidly when well-intentioned but overbearing regulations were set in place. Reports of a 6 year-old boy charged with sexual harassment for kissing a classmate; teens suspended from school for using mouthwash after lunch; and a teacher fired for reprimanding an unruly student, only worsened his condition.

Common Sense lost ground when parents attacked teachers for doing the job that they themselves had failed to do in disciplining their unruly children. It declined even further when schools were required to get Parental consent to administer Calpol, sun lotion or a band-aid to a student; but could not inform parents when a student became pregnant and wanted to have an abortion.

Common Sense lost the will to live as the Ten Commandments became contraband; churches became businesses; and criminals received better treatment than their victims.

Common Sense took a beating when you couldn't defend yourself from a burglar in your own home and the burglar could sue you for assault.

Common Sense finally gave up the will to live, after a woman failed to realize that a steaming cup of coffee was hot. She spilled a little in her lap, and was promptly awarded a huge settlement.

Common Sense was preceded in death by his parents, Truth and Trust; his wife, Discretion; his daughter, Responsibility; and his son, Reason.

He is survived by his 3 stepbrothers; I Know My Rights, Someone Else Is To Blame, and I'm A Victim. Not many attended his funeral because so few realized he was gone. If you still remember him, pass this on. If not, join the majority and do nothing.

RIP We shall remember

Dear bullies,

See that girl you just called fat? She is starving herself.
You know that girl you just called ugly? She spends hours putting on make-up hoping people will like her.
That boy you just tripped? He is abused enough at home.
See that old man you made fun of cause of the ugly scars? He fought for our country.
See that young boy you must made fun of for always being sick? He has to walk home in the snow cause his family is too poor.
That guy you just made fun of for crying? His mother is dying.

Re-Post this if you are against bullying. I bet 95% of you won't
Your life is probably not as harsh as theirs.

Questions with Naruto fics

The executed fic

Okay, just out of curiosity where did this genre come from? Where did the whole idea that all of Konoha are dicks, kill Naruto, and he comes back to reap revenge? Who thought up the idea that every one but Naruto's LI are evil dicks and need to be cleansed from the world. It seems a forced way to put naruto against the "evil" of Konoha and how he must put them in their place. It looks like a means of avoiding the natural and already overused and moronic bashing of just the Konoha villagers and the seemingly nonexistent council. Now there seem to fics where some writers just give up and say "I don't feel like trying so, I'm going to make everyone evil." It's a little lazy.

The family

then there comes the crossover fic that seems abundant. Kushina and Minato live and Naruto even has a twin/ younger sister. Sounds good so far right? Wrong. Apparently in every single one Kurama's (the nine tails) chakra is sealed in his sister and his soul in Naruto. If one ignores the impossibility of that scenario as chakra is physical and spiritual energy, ergo no soul no chakra. Therefor one cannot separate the soul from the chakra as it would be the equivalent of killing him. Even so the soul and power get separated, and then Naruto's parents neglect him for his sister. I'm going to allow the stupidity of that statement sink in. Minato and Kushina the two who were overjoyed with the very thought of having Naruto throw him to the side, forget that they never bought him anything, Naruto somehow self teaches himself to be an amazing ninja, cause he could do that in the show. And then there's the fact that the excuse for the neglect is that his sister needs more training because she has the chakra. Excuse me but it was deemed naruto wasn't ready to start learning to use the chakra until he was on the chunnin arc, what makes this bitch so special? And some how because Naruto has the soul he's beaten by the villagers (something that never happened in the actual show) but his sister, who has the power to LEVEL THE WHOLE VILLAGE gets a free pass. Then finally it turns Naruto into a whiny brat, sure being neglected sucks big time but the execution more than most times makes him look like a child.

Bashings

Minato- what did this guy do? What atrocity has he commited to be bashed and called the bastard for sealing Kurama into Naruto. I'm sorry but for a moment screw the fact Naruto is the main character, it was either seal the nine tails or let the village he loves and leads burn. Sorry guys, but in a realistic sense this was the right thing to do. The needs of the many outweighs the needs of the few. And for those who say he could have come up with some other means of stopping the fox, I invite you to come up with another means of stopping the raging force of nature before it levels your home.

Kakashi- Really? This guy? People really feel the need to go after him, turning his enjoyable character into a cardboard cutout bad guy because he was "jealous Naruto stole his sensei's affections". Hmmm, nope. That's just stupid.

Sasuke- "He's emo! He's so arrogant an wants so steal all their Jutsu and never actually grow as a ninja. How can he be surrounded by all those girls and not capitalize on it?" The naysayers shout. One how about I have your brother slaughter whole family before your eyes and then physiologically torture you for god knows how long. Then why don't I force you to forever live in that house where your family was slaughtered with the festering hatred of the one person you looked up to and tell me how you turn out. Also arrogant? The whole Uchiha elite spiel is spoken minimally at best, and how many of the three times has he copied a jutsu? And on the subject of fangirls.

THEY ARE FANGIRLS!!!!

You want that fawning over you every single day of your school life? I thought not.

Fanfiction pet pevs

Main character good guy turns evil- this is something that really irks me to absolutely no end. The idea of turning the protagonist into a villain and thus is turned against the his friends and fights against them, or in some cases they all go turncoat and join the dark side. In every case I see this it is used as some kind of means to change things around, which is fine but I reLly can't get behind the idea that the main character is a bad guy who will inevitably win and do whatever he/she has set out to do. I don't want to see something about how the bad guy wins, if I did I'd watch the news or game of thrones. I expect my hero/anti-hero go go out and conquer evil.

On the topic of my stories.

Because I feel the need to explain this I have come to put this out to the world. All of the main character's in my fanfic's are OP.

Yeah I know its hard to put together what with Alex being able to lift a small car, use his Super Biotics(more or less), Jason being able to shoot the wings off a fly two continents away with a tank, Omega just going around slaughtering the general evil populace it must have been hard to see. Well I'm here to say that if any character of mine comes off as a bit Gary Stu (Which where the hell did that classification come from by the way?) it is maybe, perhaps, 90% of the time intentional. While I myself like the idea of their being a big struggle for the hero/heroine (Cuz some people will just eat me alive if I don't include that), I find it irritating the whole obligatory "Because I'm the villain I am stronger, faster, and always twenty moves ahead of you." I mean I'll use that from time to time to change things up a bit but god does it get dull when the villain is always one step ahead. Some times I just want a hero who bashes in the door, kills the bad guys and gets the girl/guy/loot/ect. Sure those kinds of stories can be stale and usually aren't that interesting. Well that is what I aim to change. The majority of my Fics are an attempt to take an OP character or a downright godlike character and make them interesting.

That is my goal with this. So if I pop out a Walking Dead where the main character is god, or a Naruto where he can take on the whole planet, and so on don't be surprised. Because I'm either going to try my hardest to make it interesting for you the reader.

Or its just me acquiescing to my inner five year old who just wants to see the bad guys lose. One of those two. So here's to the OP characters who are insulting labeled Gary Stu (For some reason), I shall strive to make you out to the fully fleshed character I know any 'Gary Stu' can be.
