The above-grounder's guide to anything and everything I can think of that has to do with the scary underworlders that you're afraid to look in the eye.

Foamy Once Again Backs Up the Little Guy
This newest episode of Foamy the Squirrel is truly speaking volumes considering some of the events that have happened just within the last few months. Obviously, bullying is still a practice that is alive and well in schools. Seriously, do a simple Google search on the internet and the page will be flooded with reports of children (especially teens) committing suicide after enduring months and possibly years of bullying from fellow classmates. The new "it" crowd for bullying tends to be teens who are homosexual. My biggest question in every single one of these scenarios is... "Where the hell are the fucking teachers!" This is utterly pathetic and borders on criminal negligence. Teenagers are killing themselves because those who are charged with looking after them and teaching them are nowhere to be found. And if they are there, it's apparent they aren't doing much in way of helping, because if they were many lives could have been spared. Those who have stood idly by and let this heinous behavior towards others continue do not deserve the positions they have been placed in nor do they deserve to be respected...

No, I'm not Watching the Superbowl
I have a complete and utter hatred of American Football. For one it shouldn't even have that name. What Americans call soccer is the original holder of the name football, and it fits a hell of a lot better. Not to mention football is just a bastardized version of rugby, but I'm not going to get into that. Two, I find it boring as all hell. There's almost no kind of continuous action to follow. It's all; run, smash, throw, run, smash, repeat until someone actually scores. Three, the point system is just ridiculous. Why should you earn 6 points for every completed touchdown? Make it something reasonable like 2 at least! Four, I have the misfortune to live close to Pittsburgh, home of the worst football nuts in the country. Remember, this was the place where its inhabitants trashed their own city after WINNING the Superbowl... Yeah, these cheeseheads trashed their own city because they couldn't control themselves even after their team won! Seriously, how much more idiotic can you get than that? It's like half these people have their lives revolve around this stupid sport, to the point where gods forbid you ask them to do something to take their attention off it for even a couple minutes. Like last year for example, my now ex-fiancee and I were at my mother's house to watch the Superbowl. It was getting close to the time we had to leave so I asked my ex to go out to the car and get my kitten's blanket so it wouldn't be so cold for him when we put him in his carrier. My ex, my mother, and my mother's boyfriend all reacted with something close to outrage at me asking him to do this simple thing that would require maybe two minutes of his time so that way our kitten wouldn't run the chance of getting sick. After a bout of yelling, I threatened to make him pay for any future veterinarian bills if we had to take the kitten to the vet and he got the blanket. So yeah, in short, I hate football. Always have and always will and I don't care who wins the stupid Superbowl this year or any year for that matter...

Why Goths Want to be Antisocial Part 3
I'm not sure how I've managed to pass over this particular aspect of the undergrounders' want to stay away from the populace at large. Probably because I try to avoid the subject at all costs because nothing, and I mean nothing, pisses me off faster or more efficiently than animal cruelty. I will take the company of my kitten over the company of most people any day of the week. Why? Why not? I don't have to put up with any kind of incessant whining about useless crap that doesn't really matter, animals won't judge you, and they are far more entertaining and, in a lot of cases, display much more intelligent behavior than most humans. Don't deny it, there are some people who wouldn't last two hours if matched in a Darwinism test. And what has brought about this sudden realization? People being heartless assholes and torturing animals... what else? This one comes courtesy of Facebook. I was wandering around looking at friends' stauses when I happen across one that pictures two guys looking like their think they're hot shit with two dogs strung up by their necks in the background. Que raging anger at all of humanity. *Note: Anyone who is sensitive to a massive amount of cursing should probably skip to the end of this post right about now* Leave it to fucking Mexico to not give a rat's ass about animal rights and despite the fact that these two fucking bastards were already convicted of torturing a puppy and killing it they only got off with a slap on the wrist, they probably won't be punished any more for this. I hope someone hunts these fuckwads down and give them a similar treatment they do to their animals... That is all... Die you fucking bastards... Ok, I'm done.

Anti-Valentines Day
Yeah, I know we're still a couple weeks away from V-Day, but the simple fact is that I already can't stand hearing about it anymore. I couldn't stand hearing about it when they first started putting the Valentine's Day candy out on the shelves at Target... Plain and simple fact is that any other time of year I'm perfectly content to be single, but right around this time of year, all the stupid romance is shoved so far down your throat its going to come out the other end without any kind of digestion involved. Subsequently, it also makes you want to punch every happy couple you see in the face with little or no explanation. True, maybe most of this anger and ranting is coming from the fact that this is the first time I'll be single on V-Day in almost three years but hey... At least I'm not alone, Germaine knows what I'm talking about...
Ok, maybe it's not entirely what I mean... Ok, fine, it's pretty much exactly the same... Don't judge me!

High School of the Dead
Despite my recent boredom with zombies, the alternative world seems determined to redeem zombies' track record with me... And I have to admit they're doing a really damn good job of it. First I find out about the blog Adrian's Undead Diary, which I've posted about before, and now their next move comes from one of the favorite mediums... Anime. My friend at work recently told me about High School of the Dead, available in manga and anime. Long story short, a zombie infection breaks out and a group of high school students must use whatever they can find laying around school to fight off the cannibalistic un-dead. Yeah, that's basically it, but don't get me wrong, this series is both ridiculous and awesome. Ridiculous in the sense that every female character that is aged 16 or over has a ridiculous amount of cleavage that leaves you drooling throughout the entire scene that they're fighting off zombies. Yes, I am that perverted, get over it. This whole series kicked off with the manga back in 2006, written by Daisuke Sato and illustrated by Shoji Sato. The anime didn't get started until 2010, but better late than never for this one. Now so far, only the first season is available, but the second season is rumored to be coming up pretty soon. Here's hoping it does because the first season, as animes are wont to do, leaves you off at a cliffhanger. At least it's not a horrible cliffhanger, like one that leaves you ripping your hair out because you're so desperate to know what happens next. It more kind of gives you the "O.K.... And?!" sense. Oh well, go and check it out anyway. And here's a little preview if you need any more convincing...

Foamy Fan Mail Has Returned!
For the first time since the reboot of Foamy, Mathers has decided to gives us a Foamy Fan Mail special... Unfortunately for our favorite furry ball of squirrely wrath, peoples' intelligence levels have not improved along with the look of the cartoon. One fan mail sends us back to the age old ranting of parents expecting other people to raise their children instead of actually taking care of their little hell spawn themselves. I've already commented on this particular issue before, and my viewpoints have not changed in the slightest. But Foamy says it in a much more entertaining way so I'll let him take center stage for now...
