That bug bit me, I'll admit.
Teh hueg bbq yesterday. Drank a little too much and sat out in front of the grill for hours in the sun, which has me in a predictable gross state of body right now. Don't have too much to say about the past week except I have to go to the comic store this coming week because I found out the guy who runs events there is confused as to why his "Saturday at 7pm" time slot for l5r tournaments isn't working out for him.
I am also somewhat embarrassed to find that when I start talking to people about politics now, some asshat who agrees with me (on some level) swoops in and enacts the following plan -
Step 1: Anything Obama/Dems are trying to do is socialist and destroying "real America".
Step 2: Anyone who has to ask why is a socialist.
Step 3: If the topic is not about how they're all socialists instead of dumb things like "an issue", go to step 1.
It was funny at first, but now it's like watching your drunken Uncle Ted pick a fight with the 4H Club after a few martinis.
The bug's been around since time began.
It's bitten bigger badder bastards than the one I am.
