Becoming One With Life

livewrongandprosper:

I loved (v. much!) your Glenn Beck question and would love for you to Guest Blog, but you have no contact info on your blog. If you’re at all interested, shoot me an email (my info is on my page)…

Sorry to interrupt with personal notes (= super lame), everyone. As you were.

Anyway — hope everyone had a great holiday.

Your Virtual Friend,

Kali

This picture is disturbing. Despite that (or maybe because of it) I’m going to guest blog on Live Wrong and Prosper. I don’t know when and I don’t know what scenario will be posed for a million dollars, but it’s happening and I’m very excited.

I frequent/follow this blog (and if you don’t you should) that poses morally and socially objectionable situations and then asks whether or not you would do them for a million dollars. Currently, I’m unable to sleep and I’ve been up watching Fox News, specifically Glenn Beck, for a while now, just to get a sense of the current agenda of Conservatives.

I won’t mince words. Glenn Beck fucking disgusts me. Some one needs to do something about him. I have some specific ideas, but I’ll refrain from getting into them because 1) It’s Thanksgiving and 2) I’m aware of the written word’s repercussions. I ask you to use your imagination.

This led me to a “Live Wrong and Prosper” thought experiment. Could I, for a million dollars, say the things that Glenn Beck says (or at least similar things) on my own show? Could I perpetuate my own, completely misguided and unfounded interpretations of the Constitution, the Founding Fathers, the current and former administrations, war, government initiatives, etc.?

Probably.

Glenn Beck surely makes more than a million dollars. Maybe I shouldn’t be so hard on him.

Nevermind.
