The Future Of Windows Update

Filed Under: Annoying, OS by admin — Leave a comment
December 8, 2011

Dear Microsoft,

The Windows OS needs an update service.

I am not referring to the Windows Update.

It’s either Windows Update will be expanded for all other software vendors to subscribe their information to it and then their applications will be updated trough a single service instead of having countless nonsensical services running at the startup.

Or Microsoft can create an entire new service.

These days each application has its own updating service which is loaded with windows startup programs next to other idiotic services. That is why powerful computers are brought down to a crawl just after a few months of use. The main culprits are all the garbage toolbars, the extra fluff from essential applications, and system integrators or OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers). Besides all the necessary applications, the OEMs install all kinds of crap trial software. Even if you buy a new computer you still have some work to do to clean it up. It is no surprise that Apple computers are gaining  market share, they’re headache free. And for a non initiate it is the most important aspect.

ITunes,  Adobe reader, Flash player, Java, and so on.

These are only a few of the countless applications that add a few services to start up. I still consider Adobe reader the champion because it enriches your system with a whopping record of 5 services. I commented on that abomination of an application before and I am still hung on it. So in order to prevent this garbage, Microsoft can have an update service which will resolve all the problems. Wouldn’t that be cool? In addition Microsoft can try and impose rules to software integrators  when they design software. Moreover Microsoft can eventually do the same thing as driver signing, only this time they can digitally sign the application too, if it is deemed to be up to par with the imposed Microsoft standards.

About Netflix

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — 1 Comment
April 15, 2011

I wrote about movies in several occasions, especially that fact that movies are censored in US. I recently reviewed the movie Cry Baby and I noticed that it is not the entire movie. This time I instant streamed it from Netflix. And so it appears that Netflix as well as DVD manufacturers are cutting movies.

It starts to feel like Big Brother is alive and kicking here in the US, but yet we are FREE, and we’re blatantly fighting for our freedom, but we’re just fighting for it without knowing where it is, or who’s got it.

Anyway it seems one has to go to great lengths to watch a movie as it was made. Funny thing is that most of us don’t even notice these things, they just eat whatever is served. I’m going to  ask Netflix directly why we’re getting censored movies.

Adobe Reader Install

December 6, 2010

I was trying to install adobe reader X on a computer and it worked like a charm. The only problem is that if you want to install it on a second machine you have to go trough the same online process again. Imagine if you have to do multiple machines, terrible.

Moreover you can’t even see the adobe reader installation kit anymore because there is a weird download butler that has to install too before you can install adobe reader. I’m not sure how is this supposed to be easier than just download the damn file and install it, but adobe has done it again. In addition you have like 4 services wanting to start up after the adobe reader installation. I don’ t even know why businesses choose adobe, but from now on I will use anything else but adobe.

So in the following two locations you will find the installation kit:

windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\NOS\Adobe_Downloads 

Windows 7: C:\users\all users\nos\adobe_downloads

While the download butler is downloading the applications you can browse to find the files being downloaded, after they have finished downloading, the icons are going to change, so just copy them in different locations, because they will be erased after a restart.

Adobe reader has become a garbage application, no wonder PCs crash and burn constantly, it is because garbage apps like acrobat reader that have dimwits designers behind them.

Adobe reader services, adobe reader start up, adobe reader update

Adobe Reader – terrible application, I hope someone else is going to come with a better standard, because their acrobat reader is such an ass backwards design. Now in 2010 you have 4 services that are installed and are running at log on. I am speculating by 2020, they will have perhaps 10.

Xbox Live Sucks

Filed Under: Abouts, Annoying, Reviews by admin — 1 Comment
December 2, 2010

So I wanted to cancel my XBOX Live automatic renewal. And obviously I couldn’t. There is no way to do it on your own, online. Or if it is, is so hidden that will drive you mad looking for it. And I know that is all part of the forced renewal marketing strategy that all companies use. Credit cards, banks, literally almost any subscription service will just get you signed in in perhaps 2 seconds, but it will take you at least an hour to unsubscribe. Why? Is all simple. They use all possible tactics to deter you from canceling.

I called to cancel my automatic renewal. And I really don’t understand why you have a stupid robot that is asking questions because the technician answering the call will ask you the same questions again? If you prompt her about the questions you already answered, she will give you a lame excuse that somehow somewhere your answers got lost. You have to waste your time again answering those redundant questions again to the technician.

It is totally unacceptable when you spend 10 minutes to answer all the possible questions with one technician and then you get transferred.  But the top of the frustration is reached when you are asked the same questions again by the new person.Why was the first tech asking the questions if they did not transfer the answers with the effin’ phone call? It will always remain a frustrating deterring tactic from canceling your subscriptions. Can someone design this better?

I wasted 20 minutes on the phone to cancel a subscription. That is unacceptable, and they did not wanted to change my gamer tag to redeem themselves. All I can do now is start my own console and my own perfect network and following. Anyone care to invest?

News Corp, Fox 5, Cablevision

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
October 19, 2010

I recently was exposed to this dilemma between Cablevision and NewsCorp. First I have to say that NewsCorp is unreasonable, and if they want 150 million dollars then they should remove all commercials from their channels.

To me is great news, one less addiction for the masses. I still watch TV because is comfortable watching movies on a TV, but I don’t have any TV subscription. For me there is no news, no channels, and no DRAMA.

Since I have been TV free for quite sometime now, I realized that almost everything on TV is DRAMA on STEROIDS and everybody is an addict. I think that THE DEA should make most of these garbage TV Shows a schedule one drug and start taking them offline.

We in general constantly complain when things go wrong and always employ other agencies  to take responsibility for us, and we give up some of our power and rights with that. When a neighborhood becomes too bad, all we do is leave because it doesn’t suit us anymore, or hire more police. But how many of us are casting our votes indirectly towards worsening our neighborhood, without even knowing. For example we watch TV shows that present behaviors we wouldn’t like to be apart of, or close to, but yet we’re casting our vote when watching!  Then we should stop crying when things get out of control, we did it to ourselves. If you don’t condone something then don’t watch it! This is in regards with everything we do. How many of us have bought a stolen item or a cheap item? One cheap item means one more employee with no health insurance, or worse! One stolen item bought means one more thief in the business of stealing.

I think all of us misunderstand freedom and responsibility. If NewsCorp wants an unreasonable amount of money then we the viewers should cast our vote and fine NewsCorp by just saying NO. But we won’t, because we have become too weak and comfortable to make a stand and say enough is enough! And its easier to appoint somebody else to be responsible for our problems. So most of you probably will switch to some other TV providers since you can’t live without your precious Sunday football.

I think that all of die hard fans instead of putting pressure on Cablevision they should just boycott Fox 5. Then all of us will take our power back in our hands and dictate the terms, not NEWSCORP. This is the time to make a difference just say no to Fox 5, and in the time remaining do something more productive. Read a book, get a hobby, build a puzzle, and so on.

P.S. anyway I hated the O’Reilly Factor, so indeed this is good news if less people see that propaganda. In addition News Corp had the nerve to block IP addresses originating from cablevision. That is taking it to an extreme!

How to see the doctor, beautiful utopia

Filed Under: Annoying, health by admin — Leave a comment
October 14, 2010

I went to the doctor for a problem that has been upsetting me for couple of years now.

First I called to see if it is the right specialist to go see. I have spoken with the receptionist there I gave her my only symptom I have, and she informed me that the nurses there said that yes I am headed to the right place. After all said and done I went to the doctor and to my surprise the doctor himself asked me why did I choose his specialty? I mean why in the hell don’t they take phone calls for lets say 2 hours out of the day and the talk with the patients directly to see if the symptoms presented are in the doctor’s area of expertize, or not? Aaaa, but they don’t get paid then. But how about us the patients, where are our rights then? How about that beautiful law an eye for an eye,  no cure, no pay type of deal?

Anyway he was courteous and he recommended another specialist, but with a maybe. I have no clue what is this new medical reform is reforming but there should be laws that doctors should have a quota of phone calls where they advise people if it is the right place to go. There should be a 15 minute free phone call in the potential patient rights! This should be included in the patient’s bill of rights!

Nowadays you can’t see a doctor unless you pay. All other businesses have some non billable free time, except  doctors. This seems to be the worst catch 22 ever, because you go to the doctor, he never fixes anything and yet you get billed, why?

In addition I think doctors, are the most expensive drug dealers, most visits end up with here is the prescription, there you go. I do want the prescription, but I want that prescription to be the cure not some effing pain killer! Where are the good old doctors that look at you and they tell you only from that what the problem is. I haven’t seen any good diagnostician in forever. They all say “I can’t tell you until I see the test results”. Well why the hell did you go to school for, then? They seem to be behaving like a poor written computer book, which only knows how to describe a computer, but it never teaches you how to develop your work-flows and how to approach the computer.

And I am sorry if I am offending but what is so modern about this medicine? It seems that all it does is to prolong your pain. Where are the cures?????????

I was and saw him, he never cured my problem and now I have to pay the bill, where is the fairness here? I get to still suffer and pay a pointless bill because the system sucks! No one thought of this? Where is the value that each individual should pride himself for bringing into the world? Or is it all just for getting paid, and being successful?

There should be a law where they talk on the phone directly with the patient, then the patient know not to waste his time to go there or the doctor’s time, period. That should be modern medicine in a wrap. How about returning the service, shouldn’t there be a satisfaction guarantee?

Duane Reade, Your City NOT your drug store

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
October 12, 2010

I wanted to get some Motrin and of course around where I work there is a plethora of drug stores, all of them called Duane Reade. And it is frustrating to go on a drug store which has the nerve to advertise itself with “Your City Your Drug Store” and you can’t find your drug.

Where I work is full of commercial buildings, no residential whatsoever, and yet on the pain reliever aisle you can only find PM stuff. I mean how brilliant can someone need to be to make the assumption that people might buy pain relievers for work too. I understand that we buy stuff for home but it is inadmissible to have a an aisle full of only PM stuff. I even went to two locations, the same type of stocking strategy.

I guess their stock manager is using to much of the PM stuff, and he’s sound asleep.

Hangover

Filed Under: Annoying, health by admin — Leave a comment
September 7, 2009

One of the benefits of the leaving close to the woods are the crisp mornings and nights. And it is so good to experience that crispness especially when you’re recovering from a hangover. But one bad thing that it could happen is to have to wake up to take a leak. And you wake up all numb and dizzy from the pills and the alcohol and you just go. On your way there you just want to return and you hope that you’ll be able to go back to sleep again. Well in this case I couldn’t. Remember those crisp nights, well someone decided to turn on the heat and that was the last thing I needed. And just like that I could not fall back to sleep, and I needed it, badly. Now I am just trying to flush it out of the system, and it is such a slow day.

I came to a realization, there are plenty of us that get acquainted with alcohol. But there are only a select few that have put alcohol in check. The rest of us, we’re just trying and dying like fruit flies. My friend over here is nauseous. Man he is suffering, his face and mine are expressing defeat and hopelessness in the face of this great foe. The mighty alcohol that very few have had the ability to tame.

Maybe we should find joy in spectating this difficult sport.

Contact the System Administrator

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
August 20, 2009

Have you ever got this error …Contact your system Administrator?
What am I supposed to do when I am supposed to be the administrator? I would really want to ask the guys that usually put that help tip there.

Just the other day I was playing around for the first time with Solaris, and I was doing something that I had no clue what it was for. Furthermore in my adventure I got an error that told me to contact the system administrator. Well big bummer, I am the only system administrator, and I was trying to learn the damn OS, but it doesn’t include little help on the actual issue I had.
I am glad I did not get the “Contact System Administrator” when I was adding a windows 2008 domain controller to an existing 2003 domain. It just told me that I had to run some other software on the existing domain controllers.

Anyway , I just wanted to share my thing about this “Contact the System Administrator” because lately I’ve being seeing that a lot, and it pisses me off when I’m it, and I have no clue what to do next. Maybe all the developers out there will start putting some actual information why would the issue happen not the same old story.

It is a crime to Overdraft

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
August 10, 2009

That should be the title of a major awareness campaign for people that don’t want to end up in jail by over drafting their bank accounts. Overdrafting should be put on the same list with drunken driving campaigns and the schedule one narcotics. In addition posters and signs should be placed in subways and train stations because it is already treated like a crime.

This morning on my way to work I saw in the elevator that the US banks are going to make approximately 35 billion dollars on overdraft fees.

It is news like these that make me believe that the whole economy and recession was just a scam designed or just advertised by the few so they can become wealthier. It seems that the overdraft fees alone in US can rebuild an entire small country. Seeing this little news made me more inquisitive to the matter and I found out some stats from FDIC about the overdraft programs. Browsing through the FDIC literature I figured out that overdraft programs are in place just to make a shit load more money for the banks. No one really explains why the overdraft programs are in place.

I can speculate that the reason for overdraft fines and fees is the cold hard cash. Is not that the bank has to go to so much trouble because of us overdrafting our accounts. There is no extra burden on the bank or the software that makes the transaction. The software just has to trap the error and return a message. The other party then has to accept the fact that there is no money and they can slap a late fee. But the thing that is outrageous is the fact that your own bank also slaps you a fine.

Another funny thing is that all these institutions are doing all their business with machines designed to remember everything, and not miss a thing. We ARE HUMANS not machines, our life is supposed to be fun and the machines are there to support us not to compete against us. All these institutions are using these machines or the technology to control us like we are some kind of outlaws. We are not outlaws, and it should be outlawed for any institution to use technology in competition with human beings, especially when this technology was designed and built for automations, tasks that humans weren’t designed for. Our brains are not designed trough their nature to be automatic and never forget about things or chores. It is understandable to use anything to compete against some form of outlaws but not against civilians.

My bank is supposed to be my friend, not slap me with a fine because I forgot about my money. If someone asks what will happen if everyone will overdraft? Nothing, I say. Because they already know that they will be making money out of it and there will NOT be some cataclysmic system meltdown like they are trying to sell it as. No wonder that we see all these nice fat bonuses to all these CEOs CFOs and whatever other acronyms are out there for money hungry whores (MHW).

Windows Update and Internet Explorer 8

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — 1 Comment
June 26, 2009

Lately I have been deploying a lot of PCs at work. Before deployment every PC has to be updated. So of course among the important updates we also find internet Explorer 8. Every time I have to disable that update from installing. And I am doing that for good reasons. When Microsoft decided to climb from IE6 to 7 many installed it and they all got burned because it was full of bugs. Now I don’t know who and how MS decided to Put IE8 as an important update. But what I would really like to do, is to meet the man or the team responsible for that “brilliant” idea.

Sometimes I am trying to think the way he reached the conclusion to actually add IE8 to the important update section. There is multiple versions running in my head, and I will share them with the few that might stumble upon this.
One is the like this: Since IE7 was such a shitty browser the enlightened at Microsoft had a meeting, because, let’s assume IE was losing ground to other browsers and that would be unacceptable because this could lead to an eventual crash of MS itself, BOHOHOHooowaaaahh (this trying to be a ghostly scary sound). HOW? Well it’s complicated but let’s fable that Mozilla or some other company that already has a kick ass browser out there comes up with an OS that is going to revolutionize the OS world. Let’s take it to another level and say that it will be like the hero that saves the nation from the oppressing oligarchy… LOL. Then because IE7, everyone will say enough of this shit, we want the hero OS with their kick ass browser that never has problems. And there it is the beginning of the MS’s doom. If you look MS is actually giving freely windows 7 to people that purchased windows Vista. IE8 come to save their ass from IE7 blunder. To me this looks like a big cover up, or mass memory erasure. Because is recently after Win Vista, and it reminds of the Windows 98 and 98 second edition. That is the problem with these people, they are unreliable from one version to another. And that is not that appealing. I remember in the good old days when shit worked flawlessly and companies stuck with their reputation. Yea the good old days. Bs I ‘m just messin, I don’t know shit about the good old days I’m not that old.

Another idea is that the managers of windows update and whoever else, gathered and brainstormed. And as a practical joke they said how can we mess with the users? And some guy said: I know we can put IE8 as an important update. My assumption is that IE8 has to be buggy as hell too. Wasn’t IE7? What can we expect with IE8? So they said, brilliant, just brilliant and that is how IE8 became an Important Update and I have to disable that poop every time when I update a new computer.

Now my question to the people at Windows Update is: WTF were you thinking? I am sick and tired of people making decisions for other people and ME. Putting IE8 as an important automatic update is a matter of preference not a matter of security. If they really care about our safety, and not their pockets, they should’ve created a patch with the security features, not a whole new god damn edition of Internet Explorer.

There should be a universal or federal LAW out there that strictly regulates when the version change is allowed. Something like when more than 50% of the features on original software have changed then it is allowed for a version change from 6.1 to 6.2 or something like that. A major version revision from IE6 to IE7 should NOT just be, because it has added tabbed browsing capabilities 5 years later after everybody else, and they still didn’t get it right. IE7 was horrible. The major revision should be after a 90% – 100% change of the original product. And now they add the IE8 to Important Updates, OH HELL NO.

By the way, I am still using IE6 and it is still alive is kicking.

Free Money Freeway. News media grow some balls!!!

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
March 20, 2009

I do not understand why the news had to criticize the people for taking the money dropped from the speeding sports vehicle. That news would have been news worthy only if the news crew would have told the story from highway chase, and drugs point of view. Instead they covered mostly the people that took the money. The video and the news commentator let free some innuendos about the bad will of the people that are taking the money.

Firstly they want to point to the lack of honor and nobility of the people that took the money of the highway, or to their lack of morality, and to their greed. I think the news crew and most of the news crews are subservient, because they only disclose easy news about defenseless people, and they don’t pick real challenging matters to disclose. And of course it becomes very hard for a person to fight them back because that person has to dedicate extra time to fight back. Whereas for the news crew it’s their job and they get paid regardless if they get it right or not. They cowardishly cover only convenient news and easy news. I thought that the press was supposed to be one of the checks and balances, but it appears that in the last hundred years had become more convenient to news media to just stay out of trouble. In addition is it very convenient to filter out all challenging news and cover only the non problematic news. By non problematic news I mean the news that would not create any problem to the actual news outlet or news crew.

After they covered the people that took the money, the news crew turned the attention to one lady that actually stopped in the middle of the highway to collect money risking her life. First of all, there are plenty of people out there that risk their life going to work daily because their jobs involve risks. Why they do it, to get a paycheck at the end of the week. The same with this lady she took an extra risk for some extra cash. Therefore news crews stop showing me nonsense news that has nothing of great importance. The people that took the money deserved it. They pay after all for all the institutions that work from their taxes, and these institution fuck up constantly therefore consider this a pay cut. Moreover if drugs are that bad then the money should be considered as a form payback due to drug inflicted injuries. Isn’t that fair enough?

If these news outlets would like to disclose real news, they should pick some great subjects where they have no allies from nowhere and they would still prevail. Something bigger than Watergate, because it was easy to cover, since the other major political party was the victim, that is a strong ally. And of course it would be very convenient to have news worthy subjects of massive impact that can be reported on without any challenge or opposition from nowhere.

So news outlets grow some balls and cover some real news and investigate why the towers did went down. Yea the 9/11 towers. Because from all the informing material out there, it seems that there was some sabotaging done to the towers. At the beginning of the ordeal anchors called as they saw it, demolition by implosion. After a few people got discredited and lost their jobs for the demolition by implosion, everybody else got quiet, including the news outlets. So again if you want to point out of the peoples honor and good morals, first look in your back yard, you cowards!

“We are grateful to the Washington Post, The New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost forty years. It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is now more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The supranational sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.” — David Rockefeller

Preferential censorship?

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
November 18, 2008

I saw a commercial on TV that was intended to raise money for cancer, and there were showing children that either had cancer, or they were waring good makeup. Anyway, by their facial expressions they looked like they were on chemo. Since we are so protective of children, why would we show children dying of cancer to other children? Why isn’t  this type of commercial blocked? Some sexual content and games aren’t allowed to children of certain ages because, supposedly are going to what turn them into murderers, sex offenders and rapists. Isn’t that stupid? Because this way we just turn them into neurotic and panicky. They can easily assume that they can get cancer, right? I mean how would any of you feel if your child all of a sudden will start asking “Mom/Dad what if get cancer?”, how would all you answer? Would you still be OK with that type of commercial on TV? What if some of these children become more inquisitive and they can’t get over that idea?

Another thing that bothers me are those banner ads in NYC that seem to have filled the city. These are some banner ads of skinless people, and anyone can see the tendons and fat and the muscles, I think they are ads for some TV Show on History Channel. I personally can’t stand that. I might have an issue. But I think that type of banner ad is even worst than that of a man or woman advertising lingerie. So all you child protectors should be more weary about these things.

As a conclusion I think all this child drama is just major BS of frustrated parents.

My Economic Rant

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
November 10, 2008

Over the last few months we’ve seen the economy plummet down rampantly. Moreover, big, prestigious corporations crumbled like toothpicks under a car’s weight. These companies weren’t new and inexperienced, they had decades of experience and they still crumbled. 6 or 7 years back AIG was rated to AAA as one of the strongest corporations, so on and so forth. Now it seems that the Fed is pumping rescue packages in AIG like cans on a conveyor belt. In addition everyone gets a severance package. What a nice slap on the wrist. And yea, mostly are the upper income employees that get the severance packages. The other ones just go home and pack, because soon they are going to get evicted or foreclosed.

Why aren’t we average Joes Schmoes getting stimulus packages when we get fired, so we could get by until we get back on our feet. That would work nicely because we don’t have to save for harder times, the same as the big corporations. Spend it all baby. Wouldn’t that be a lot more fairly? So when everyone when gets fired, they should apply to the Fed for stimulus packages to cover rent, food and spa treatments, to try and alleviate the stress of losing the job. Perfect isn’t it? Moreover the Fed should NOT say that we should have saved, because they obviously fucked up when they didn’t made a law to provision these corporations to invest let’s say a well calculated percentage in the Fed to have as backup for these exact speciffic situations.

It seems that someone messed up big time. And I still don’t understand why these, basically loan sharks, try to put more burdens on the borrowers. They say that they take a greater risk lending to someone of a lower income. But I said it before, either you lend them at a fare rate, or don’t lend them at all. The poor shouldn’t be paying double for a house whe a richer person would pay only half for the same house. what king of logic is that anyway? If these loan sharks would be arrested and put in jail then everyone else would think twice before they would predatory lend to anyone.

Why these great (not so much now) corporations didn’t have a backup plan? I mean there should be a reserve of a certain percentage that should be invested in the Fed at a very low interest. Or as larger interest as it gets, but no, these blood thirsty ticks invested everything on mortgages to bleed the low income population, and now they even had the nerve to foreclose them. But I guess that didn’t work that well because they kind of foreclosed themselves. The bad part is that all those rich bastards are still doing well and the Fed is pumping money. And the foreclosed people are on the street. Maybe a great lesson for these fancy economists would be to not get hired, just like convicts. What I mean is that when convicts get out of jail they get nothing, or all the shitty possible jobs. Maybe if all these AIG, Lehman Brothers, and all the others will get the same treatment it would teach everyone a lesson. If you come to analyze it is fair, you fucked up and now you have to redeem yourself, just like a convict, go and start flipping burgers at McDonalds. This way a newer generation will come. They will be not as experienced but also they will less likely to take the same risks, therefore it evens out.

Wouldn’t it be fair? I would love to see a CEO end up filling gas or flipping burgers. And I am not talking about flipping his own burgers on weekends, and filling up his tank. I am talking about of seeing one CEO being foreclosed out of his mansion, and ending down in the gutter, because I am sick of all this fancy economics, which favors the only the upper income people.

Are we selfish by having a pet?

Filed Under: Annoying by admin — Leave a comment
August 1, 2008

I think we are very selfish by having pets. It is so because we are modifying the animal’s behavior and body to accommodate our needs, and when asked why we own a pet, we sate that we love animals. I think is just a bunch of BS because most people alter their pets’ bodies just to fit their needs.

First off, when someone decides to have a pet they should compromise also for the pet’s needs too. They should also think the situation clearly before they go and get a pet. But no, they just get a pet, and a year later when you look at it you fell like asking where is the rest of it?

Last week I’ve seen this male cat that hasn’t been outside in three years. The owner lived in a nice house that had a huge yard. The sad part is that this cat had his claws removed three years ago and since then it hasn’t been allowed to go outside because it cannot protect itself without claws. To me this is the absolute evil. Because just for our satisfaction we take these pets and modify them to fit out households. And we think that we are so loving and caring when in fact we just make them prisoners in their own bodies since they will never enjoy their natural abilities.

Moreover we sterilize them just too eliminate the bad odors when they are marking their ground, this pure stupidity and cold hearted business to maximize profits.
On the reverse side all these loving caring pet owners are quick say “put them too sleep” when something goes wrong. In addition animal lovers will also state that pet without owner should be put to sleep because they have a hard life without an owner. But they forget one thing; freedom seems to be a primordial need in biological life not only human. Therefore I believe that pets without a shelter and no food are much happier even if they are starving and freezing than pets that have their belly full and comfortable baskets but no freedom.

The homeless pets get to play and enjoy their full body, whereas the home pets are just incarcerated living decorations that move around when we need to feel like God. The thing that impressed me the most was that the male cat came at the door meowing to be let outside, to me it looked like a broken spirit that just felt sorry for itself. It was punished without doing anything wrong, just being a cat.

“I never saw a wild thing feel sorry for itself.
A small bird will drop frozen dead from a bough, without ever having felt sorry for itself.”

Too bad that this cat was sorry for itself.
