Word of the day: shocking-u!!
Just because I like it....
Anyway, I was typing up a paper for my sister, and since I was in a typing mood, I thought I'd go ahead and write in my lj. I procrastinate this way too much...
First: My thoughts on the election...
I cannot believe that we have such a large number of hateful, selfish people in this country. Everybody who voted against gay marriage is either a hateful person, or horribly uninformed. Actually, I think that applies to everybody who voted for Bush this year: they're either hateful, selfish, uninformed, or some combination of the three. I mean, the Republicans won this year by pandering to the selfish ass in everyone, saying that we deserve to keep our money, after all we earned it, and therefore tax cuts are in order. Yeah, well what about the country that allows to to earn that money? What about the police force that keeps that money from being stolen, or the firefighters who keep you from fucking dying in a fire? Whatever happened to "Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country"? I know what you can do for your country; pay your fucking taxes. This whole tax cut business is bullshit.
So now we have Bush in there, who's saying he has "political credit" or some such bullshit, and he's going to do what he wants to, and the Democrats can't do shit about it. Beautiful. What the fuck were the Democrats thinking, putting up a crappy-ass candidate like Kerry? Wesley Clark would have kicked Bush's ass and shoved it up that very same ass, which would normally be a physical impossibility, except for this case, because that's how badass of a candidate Clark would have been.
Argh, these fucking people......

So, I was chatting with a friend about how it seems to be okay, even cool, when a female acts perverted, but when a male does it, it's just creepy. I was thinking more specifically about JaB's lj (no offense, JaB), and how I thought it would be cool if I could write with that kind of non-chalant-but-still-vastly-entertaining air. Then I realized that if I wrote that much about porn, everybody who'd read it would think I was a creepy freak. Then after THAT, I realized that that's pretty much what everybody thinks now anyway, which is why recent problems have occurred.
So I went over to Gamestop during my break at work, and played the demo for Metroid Prime 2 (OMFG!!!), and Mario Tennis. I played as Boo (you know, the ghost), and after using him for awhile, I figured out how to slice. And when I did it with Boo, he totally does the Snake!! Like Kaidoh's Snake! It flies in one direction, and then curves around! I was like, that's awesome, too bad he can't do the Boomerang Snake. At least, that's what I thought until I used Boo in doubles, and the opponent hit a ball really close to the edge of the court. It seriously curved around the post and landed in bounds on the other side!! It was pretty fucking awesome.
In conclusion, holy Jesus fuck, I'm poring over this IM conversation trying to understand this person, and it's driving me mad, because I know there's a simple answer behind all those opinions and emotions, and I just can't get at it. What is the motivation behind it all? I must know......
