Various crappy epiphanies

Just in case I die in car accident or something I thought I'd better release my wisdom into the world:

To stay with the fatalism theme: Death is the ultimate loss of control. We commit suicide when we feel we have lost control. So we commit suicide to take control of our own deaths. We also join religions for the same reason.

Why do we let kids see violence on TV and in movies but not let them see anything to do with sex? Sex is embarrassing. Violence is not. Blame the Puritans.

Why can't I say the forbidden n-word when black people say it all the time? It's called self deprecation. It applies to groups too.
