We know that change, both big and little, can sometimes be a little off putting or frightening. We are here to guide you through even the slightest change to your normal Talker99 reading experience.

Update: Nothing

We would like to remind you that Talker99 has a sister site titled 365poems.wordpress.com

In it he tries his hand at poetry so as to better understand the style.

Backstory: Talker99 has never really been a fan of poetry. He always thought of it as a very “look at me” style of writing and it always just rubbed him wrong.

As he grew older he became slightly wiser and realized one day that this was a very close minded way of thinking.

It was at that moment that he decided to try his hand at it and see what all the fuss was about.

He then dove in to all the poetry he could find, whatever it was, he read it. Finally, a year later, he was ready.

Now you can judge him like he has judged so many others before.

Recent study shows kids today have it way better than kids fifty years ago

Posted on by Talker99

A recent study from M.I.T. shows that children today have fewer restrictions, far less chores and way cooler toys than children 50 years ago.

These factors and many more like them have made scientists conclude that they have it way better than kids their age fifty years ago.

Mike Stizer, one of the scientists that was involved in the study had this to say, “Kids today have it so much easier than when I was a kid. I was born an raised in the sixties, I had chores, a bedtime, schoolwork piled a mile high and manners for the adults around me. Kids today have none of these. They have Playstations, freedom to run the streets due to busy, workaholic or drug addicted parents, school teachers that fear them or the system they work for due to political correctness and they have absolutely no manners whatsoever. This one kid we talked to thought manners was a guy that played for the Braves, so besides the fact that they have it better, they are also idiots.”

Ted, another scientist involved with the study and who only goes by the name of Ted, had this to say, “Kids today have the coolest shit. Kids fifty years ago had shit.”

Recent poll finds that 57% of China can not understand the other 43%

Posted on by Talker99

In a recent Peoples Republic Poll it was found that over half of the population of China have no idea what the other half is usually saying.

Over 300 million people were asked if they found it difficult to understand what others might be saying in a typical conversation. About 57 % of those polled said they did and because of this they usually just tried to avoid conversations altogether.

Others said that they would simply just stand there and look annoyed, confused or angry until the conversation was over.

The poll was taken after the General Secretary of the Communist Party, Hu Jintao, stopped a meeting with the deputies of the Party Congress of the Peoples Liberation Army/Navy upon realizing he was really supposed to be in a meeting with the Emergency Rescue Team of APF Guangdong Contingent.

The mix up caused Hu(in typical Hu fashion) to smile broadly, look towards the cameras and say, “I fucked up”. He then shrugged his shoulders and scampered off the stage.

Later, it was decided that he had simply misunderstood his assistant when she told him his daily itinerary.

More as it develops.
