Humor: Top 10 things I want most

by Shannon Chicoine

Created on: July 25, 2010

                Everyone on Earth has a “list.”  A list of things they want to accomplish in life, a list of places you want to visit before you die, a list of people you would love to meet.  Well as we all get older day by day; there is another list that begins to form.  A list of the things you want most in life and the majority of the items on this list involve giving some of the challenged among us a clue.  Some people are dating challenged, some people are socially challenged and most people are common sense challenged. 

                For instance, I’d love for single women everywhere to realize that it’s no fun to hear you ask “where is this going” or to cry on the second date.  This has been going on for too long.  Stop thinking where it’s going and enjoy where you are at.  Ever notice nobody tells stories to their grandkids about the time grandma had a bit too much wine and cried all night about her biological clock?  That’s because all the men that run through her life do exactly that, run.  Stop it ladies, stop trying to figure out your relationship after you’ve been dating for like twelve hours.   Nobody wants to date a negative Nancy.  Just have fun and be the strong independent woman you can be.

                I’d also like to change some of the voting policies we have here in the United States.  Before voting, every citizen must take a very small test to prove you’re not a moron.  Anyone getting their national news from a late night entertainment show is immediately banned from voting for at least four years.  All voters must know the names of their current representatives.  If you miss this question, you’re out of the voting club for smart people for two years.  Add another two years if you don’t know how many states are in the United States or who our first president was.  Missing this question also gets you a “Moron” stamped onto your voter’s registration card.  No exceptions, everyone is created equal right?  So the rules must apply to everyone.
