Change

A lot of people are quick to try and change something once they get bored or frustrated with it, but they're not as quick to try and preserve something that's already there. That's like throwing out decent food because it's a day old for a quick fix of instant gratification at a fast food restaurant because it was cooked that day and not reheated.

Things not changing fast enough for some people isn't frustrating, people that need everything to change to keep from getting bored or frustrated are frustrating people to know.

The Family Man

A movie about a guy that gets a glimpse of alternate lives for supposedly not appreciating the one he has.

Don Cheadle makes people go from wating to laugh to wondering where is Spider Man in about 2 seconds when the cashier won't check his ticket in The Family Man.

Gravity

Gravity is kind of like reality, or the metaphysical, it doesn't matter whether you believe in it or not, what goes up will come down at some point.

Gravity is real whether you believe it is or not. You don't believe in god (despite using God's name to bless people), because you can't see God, but you can see what gravity does even if you don't believe in it.

New jersey

New Jersey is between DE, PA, NY and the ocean. If you were from the part of New Jersey outside New York, you're from North Jersey (not New York), and if you're from the part of New Jersey outside Philly, you're from South Jersey (not Philly). Most people from New Jersey already know that and would have it no other way. Going to Philly for events, dining, shopping, to visit people, and so on isn't having started life there. Knowing a few people there doesn't make them the people you started your life around.

New Jersey is between a lot of different things up north, though most people don't confuse it with anything else.

Scapegoating

Anybody who looks for a scapegoat or doesn't hold anything sacred (including justice) doesn't believe in fair play, fair trials, or fair anything else

Nobody was crazy enough to represent the guy in town that the girl was scapegoating.
