Meet Giselle

Giselle is the great stereotype of a Disney animation of a lady in distress, being tailed by a dragon, while waiting for little prince charming to slay, this fallow beast. (Good luck chump)

Giselle is a lovable character, responding with a shy smile to our evil laughs, and jack's queer whatever. In her naiveté's, it's easy to spot some ignorance, and too much trust. Having just arrived to our little Olympus, Giselle is our greatest way to check the public reaction to every little thunder we decide to strike upon the earth.

She brought more restraining to the group, making our talks more light. Now we have gentle smiles instead of evil laughs, we talk about problems instead of just plotting the next move.


Having all this qualities, I'm bound to acknowledge that it's all going to change. Because deWinter will just ruin it for everyone and offer her a poisoned apple.


Welcoming you, in name of the team:


John Scar Kramer


P.S.: After so many asked I'm going to pull a first and translate everything, exactly, into Portuguese. So here goes…


Conhecendo Gisela.

A Gisela é um grande estereótipo de uma donzela em apuros das animações da DreamWorks, tendo um dragão sempre a trás, pelo menos até vir um orc que seja contratado pelo príncipe encantado para a vir salvar. (Boa sorte Trambolho)


A Gisela é uma criatura adorável, que reponde sempre com um sorriso tímido a toda a gargalhada malévola, ou a qualquer coisa bué porreira que o John esteja a fazer. Na sua tolice é fácil de encontrar uma crescente luta contra o desconhecido, e demasiada confiança em terceiros. A sua recente chegada ao monte Olimpo, faz com que ela seja o caminho mais curto para percebemos como reage a generalidade populacional aos nossos trovões.


Ela trouxe rédeas ao grupo, fazendo com que as nossas conversas não sejam tanto a brincar e mais sérias e objectivas. Falamos agora de moda e médias, ao passo que no passado, brincávamos e riamo-nos das pequenas crianças com que co-habitamos no nosso dia-a-dia.


Tendo tantos defeitos esta personagem, creio que só vamos conseguir mudar isto quando a Lady DeWinter oferecer uma maçã não lá muito saudável à Gisela.


Dando as boas vindas ao grupo, em nome de toda a equipa.

Equality


This is a very talked about subject, but for no need. I’ll cut to the chase and say equality is nothing, but a mirage. It will never happen, and the reason is that you can fool everyone some of the time, you can fool some people all the time, but you can’t fool everyone all of the time.

Yes! Equality is a fool’s idea and only suited for a fool believer. (By now Sin, Calvin and almost every humanitarian are shouting cursed phrases with my name on it).

Because... why?

Equality is not found in anything that hasn’t been mechanically tempered, even two leafs of the same tree aren’t alike.

It’s funny, whenever I see a protest on the TV about work equality for men and women, saying that men and women should be paid the same, that both must have the Wright to reach the top. I laugh. (Jeez! Watch your language) Because if total equality were to be conceded the same people that are protesting on the TV right now will also be protesting, after equality.

Why?

Because, it’s in their nature. Women can’t have the same perks has men, they have to have more. And due to due to ECR (Equivalent Change Rule), this addiction of perks reflect in lower salaries, and a more troubled way to the top.

So I would suggest instead of fighting for equality or equivalence, better fight for difference. Everyone of us is an unique specimen, and as so a unique treatment is what each one of us deserves. Otherwise you’re just fighting to enter a box.

P.S.:
People cannot gain anything without sacrificing something. You must present something of equal value in order to gain something. That is the principle of equivalent exchange.

If you don't get it this way think of the Isac Newton's laws, one of them is quite like this one.

When TV ruins the day

While watching a debate show called “Pros e Contras” (which I hate) in the theme of homosexual marriage I thought:

This is a (very poor) show, with (really bad) actual themes, with a crappie presenter. It usually has two spokesmen/women in each side where one defends one idea and the other defends the opposite, they talk rubbish from both sides for twenty minutes until the worst presenter of the world, stops the discussion and introduces someone from the crow sitting in the auditory to contest and attack one of the sides and say rubbish once again, and so on. This TV-rubbish, starts at half past nine and goes through the night until… I don’t know (I really never stayed to the end).

Either way, the theme this time is the homosexual marriage; I start to say I’m against it, for many reasons, but mainly because, marriage is the oldest institution in the history, and homosexuality is also an old story.

It is known in history that the Greek had a bisexual culture meaning that it was social accepted homosexual relationships. But there is not registry of a gay marriage. In the past there was respect for institutions, people respected the marriage institution and knew that it was something that was be on man’s will, the idea of marring someone comes from the sentiment that the two parts feel, love. It is not rational, nor spontaneous, it just happens. It is something sent by the gods.
This been said, it is easily accomplished that I believe that marriage is an religious institution (not meaning that atheists cannot get married, just that is not a social, nor legislation thing), meaning with this that God created man and woman to be together, and he is a lazy bastard, he would not think twice if creating only one gender would be enough, but it isn’t. There’s the need for both and its union.

You may now argue that this is just an homophobic ideal. Call it whatever you want but I have my mind closed.
