Let's be real, while the world has given us a lot of awesome stuff, there are some really messed up things going on. One of which is the ridiculously destructive tornadoes that have been ravaging the South and Midwest. If anyone has seen videos of these, they will understand how terrifying they looked. The tornadoes were huge. I heard estimates that some were a mile wide and moved at a hundred miles an hour. They were incredibly destructive. I believe, and this is a highly disputed matter, that climate change is affecting the severity of the storms hitting the world. The higher temperatures, however slight they are, and the slightly warmer waters serve as a potent combination to create powerful storms. Another thing that concerns me is that I recently found out that a girl gave me strep, even though she knew she had it. This, excuse my French, is BULLshit. I'm not happy about it. Who does that? Not cool. Another issue is poverty in general. It's a cliché response to the answer, but it's an enormous problem in this world. It's insane that we can have a country as rich as ours, yet have the untouchables of India combing through trash on the daily just for a meal. Even in our own country there is a huge divide between the rich and poor. Even though there are many issues in our world, it's still a pretty sweet place. An Ohio State's pretty dope too. It's a crazy world.

  4. I can deal with the most intense thunderstorm and not think anything of it, but when I hear Tornado, I run for cover. Something that powerful and dangerous is just frightening! I guess that's why I'm so scared of Mike Ditka.

  7. Abe, I agree, she was quite inconsiderate. Plus, I really didn't like the girl anyways. It was poor planning.
