mental poverty

Mental poverty is simply an impoverished mind. It is a way of living for some. It is a condition and state of mind where there are limited educational resources and if there are educational resources, one chooses to avoid them. It is a system that exists where the norm is ignorance and refusal. Refusal to change, to try and learn new and better ways of not only thinking but also putting thoughts into action. It is essentially a poor mind.

In today's state of environmental crisis, only someone who is afflicted with mental poverty could choose not to recycle or not to worry about the effects their choices have in regard to the sustainability of the planet.

poverty crimes

Criminal infractions such as shoplifting your dinner, totaling parked cars on the way home from a bar, small-time liquor store and gas station holdups, destroying property in bar fights or stealing some kid’s piggy bank money.

As with most poverty crimes, I was hella high or seriously shitfaced during the pathetic act itself!

poverty ball

Nickname for soccer/football. This sport is most enjoyed in impoverished third-world countries since its most rudimentary equipment necessity is a ball. Shoes are optional. Even at a professional level the sport has the cheapest equipment costs. The next cheapest sport is probably basketball.

The FIFA World Cup is the largest gathering of poverty ball fans in the world every four years.
