So I check everyones facebook profiles because I'm really lame, I'm probably reading yours right now. Anyway, I've noticed a really annoying quote under a lot of peoples favorite quote section. I just happens to be by Jimmy V and it just happens to be, Don't give up, don't ever give up.
Thank you, Jimmy for that really novel advice. I haven't heard anything so clever, so inspiring, so uplifting before in my life. Now, I will never give up. Never. I will eat the entire pint of icecream I set out to finish. I will play Mario Cart until I can kick everyone's ass. I will get that stain out of my shirt. All thanks to you Jimmy V. Thank you. Really.
Okie, so Jimmy V came up with this silly little quote. Inspiring, yeah whatever. People say a lot of dumb things everyday. Some of them shouldn't get written down and remembered. And this is just one of them. It's like a bad laminated poster in your middle school classroom, wheres some cute cat is hanging from the tree. But not only was this quote written down and remembered, people now have it as their favorite quote. A lot of people.
It would be one thing if these kids had a hard life. And I mean hard, not you still sucking your thumb til you were 12 and wetting the bed til you were 8. Sure, sure your dad may have been laid off his ritzy job and you could no longer afford Abercrombie and Fitch whenever you wanted, you might have had to get a job when you turned fifthteen, maybe you even got suspended or something from school. But I'm gonna go with if you live in Cary you probably had a pretty easy life, unless you had extremely deep rooted family problems, then ok.
But its not like the kids I see who have this on their profile grew up in the ghetto, had to raise their mothers 4 illegimate kids, try to get good grades so they could get in college, but kept having someone bring him down (I'm thinking that Derek dude from Save The Last Dance here). Then I'd understand the whole never give up shit. But these kids are going to good schools that their parents are paying for and the only thing they are told to not give up on is that next shot. "Come on Dude, one more. Don't give up now, you pussy."
I don't want to get some shit from people about how I don't know if your life is hard or not, because that's not the point. The POINT IS pick a more original quote for your quote section or your motto to live by. Because youre still alive aren't you...youre a good school YOU OBVIOUSLY HAVENT GIVEN UP YET. SO SHUT UP JIMMY V, YOURE NOT HELPING ANYONE. I'd give up, just to piss you off.

The man had cancer.. have some decency in your life.
yah. ok. so obviously robin doesnt understand the story behind this quote. its not the most clever quote in the universe, but it was his struggle with cancer that was so inspiring. heres a link to the speech where he said the quote : http://jimmyv.org/rememberingjim/espy.cfm
you should check it out. in the mean time, i think you should delete this post.
Nope.. If I deleted something just because it offended someone.. then I'd have to delete this entire blog, wouldn't I? I didn't know he had cancer, all I knew was he had some stupid golf pro thing. I haven't heard his speech and I'm too lazy to go listen to it or read about it. So ill pass but thanks. Yes.. I am a bitch. thank you.
Nice idea with this site its better than most of the rubbish I come across.
