Recreational Outrage at Offensive Emojis! Day 8

in #openmic7 years ago (edited)

To everyone reading, please accept my most sincere wishes for a beautiful Valentine's Day, surrounded by those to whom you carry the most deep affection: Whether they are your parents, your children, your spouse, or your favorite Mistress or Mister, it is the emotional connection we find through our experience interacting with each other that makes, our brief adventure here on Earth, have true meaning in our moment.

Two is one, one is none.

A NAVY SEAL maxim that applies to (in my world) everything.

To be recreationally outraged on a day where love is the focus would be shortsighted, inconsiderate, and well, kinda rude.

As a Son of Canada 🇨🇦, such behavior would be inappropriate and misrepresentative of my Canadian culture.

So instead, today let's lead the day by counting our blessings and consider the people in our lives, particularly on Steemit, who have made our brief ride on planet Earth more enjoyable:

With a Valentine's Day twist to craft this post in a grateful, relevant fashion.

My Canadian sister, Sarah McLachlan, came out with this beautiful song as the premier single to her multi-platinum album, "Fumbling Towards Ecstasy."

Listen to it, with your lover, or a hot stranger on a plane ✈️, don't be surprised if you start making out with each other, and have the sex with each other in the washroom:

Do your best to ignore the fact that the drummer looks like the love child of Loki and Professor Snape.

This song is dedicated to both @bettyboob and @themadgoat:

The latter for turning me back on to a song (and educating me on its background) in his blog on Steemit, the former for suffering a similar consequence detailed in her blog this month:

That song was written by Sarah regarding a stalker, who sued her for $250,000 for song writing credits because his scary stalking letters apparently had components in that song.

Yeah, that beautiful song was written by Sarah regarding her stalker observing her 😱

HENCE, the dedication to @bettyboob, a beautiful ray of light in a world where my light cannot reach (fuck man, I can't be everywhere all at once), who's holding it down in the Netherlands with her awesome upgraded to the nth degree husband, @fitzgibbon, who is tirelessly promoting Steemit through his twitter blast initiatives 👏🤝

NEXT UP!

In my Valentine's Day thanks to those who make my life more fun when I'm not 'called to action' in some black op you'll never read or hear about except on here, protected by anonymity and my need for release...

The MAIN man of Steemit, the CEO himself!

Ned Scott.

What can I say?

Rocking the bells as the MAIN MAN carrying Steemit into the future, our dude's doing WAY better than just alright!

'Nuff love, mad respect, to the one like Ned Scott, aka them one who be'en @ned.

PROPER brother.

We ALL thank you, and send much love.

TIME for another Valentine's Day song!

BLOODY HELL! that's the perfect song accompanied by a perfectly shot music video.

Jessica Lang, I don't care how young you are:

I'll go down on you just to hear your what your voice sounds like when triggered by multiple orgasms.

Call me. ☎️ 👱‍♂️

Next big thanks and maximum bigups to the most ethical genius I know personally:

The mental giant behind the architecture of Steemit and EOS, @dan, Dan Larimer:

EOS and block.one invited me to be an Ambassador for EOS last May in New York City.

They covered the $1700 cost for the All Access admission badge, fed me, and gave me alcohol.

Now THAT'S a winning combination!

I asked Abby, the mastermind coordinator of EOS at the Consensus conference, who PERSONALLY met me at the door and ushered me up to the EOS headquarters:

"Abby, I'm here, but my target and objective haven't been identified.
I'm here on your dime, and willing to serve - what is my role and function?"

Abby:
"Just Be YOU.
WE know you.
Be awesome, and represent EOS."

So I did, to phenomenal success at Consensus, and continue to do so, to this very day.

My non-existent contracts always have a termination date that of course don't really matter, because they are imaginary, therefore are not real,
and (duh) don't exist.

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

I'm not a financial advisor, don't follow my investment advice, blah blah blah.

When the ICO is complete for EOS, I'm buying.
True story, the future is now, the rest of the world doesn't know it yet.

I invest in genius first, technology second.

THAT'S why I bought Apple stock in 2003.

I'm buying EOS this summer when the ICO is complete (DO NOT BUY until then if you're a US citizen. You will get fucked. Stronger words there are none, so appropriate use of a swear, which I try to not use, except right before I pull the trigger).

Trading stocks and crypto, of course 😉

This last song is dedicated to ALL the lovers out there, life can be beautiful, life IS brief, find love and open yourself, fully to the moment...

I promise you:

Love is the only thing that matters.
Here, for YOU!
The best love song clip ever recorded, the clip that never fails to bring tears to my eyes, the entire crowd feeling it and giving a standing ovation...

Happy Valentine's Day Steemit,

I
Love
You
ALL!
