Have just returned from several hours of tree-trimming. Good gods I wish that was a euphamism for something even vaguely interesting. But no, just yard work. Yay of yays ( Read more... )

whinging, politics

WoW,
I know you don't know me, but I found your lj. I can't believe how selfish FOX was about London. Shesh, the British are our allies and actually cared about our country when we were attacked. *feeling ashamed as well*
...Gods, don't pay attention to what your mom said. Why can't being gay be an ok thing? Homosexuality has been around since ancient Greece. It's not going to disappear just because society has declared it wrong.
Sorry to rant on you, I just felt so shocked that I had to leave you a comment.
I really hope you don't think I'm some sort of freak (though the icon doesn't help...-_-v).

Hee, of course I don't think you're a freak! Dude, some of my icons are much freakier, I am sure :P.

The US can be rather disgusting can't it? I'm so tired of turning on the news and being ashamed of my country and what it is capable of. *moves to Canada*

As for homosexuality, it will boggle my mind for all eternity as to why people throw such a big fit over it. I just hope things change. Change is the one constant in life, I want to be able to look forward to good changes for once instead of just the bad ones that do nothing but take us further and further away from a world of tolerance and peace.

Thanks for stopping by, love! :)

hi
i just lurk, so you dont know me, but i had to pop up and say that my mother did the exact same thing to me when she caught me ordering Queer as Folk season DVDs. (In all fairness, i had 'borrowed' her credit card for the order, but i did pay her back...) She didn't object to the graphic sex for her ickle daughter, but was uncomfortable with all the excessive gayness, and finally just blurted this:
"First you had that Harry Potter slash crap on your Internet, and your best friend is a gay boy, and you read that Out magazine! What do you need gay movies for? I am starting to think you just like watching gay boys together!"
Uh, nice one, Mom. Really insightful. Your kid writes gay porn online for the writing practice, and gets Out for the articles.
Don't let them get you down, is my advice. Flip on FOX news when they annoy you and they'll get sucked in to the hypnotic web of self-righteousness for a few hours. Always helps.

Yeah, Mother's aren't the most insightful of creatures now are they? Well, perhaps the ones that are writing the slash as well are a bit more open-minded... :P

Thanks, love. Anytime I feel like having my brain eaten, I shall turn to FOX for my news. Cos really, who's better at giving me insanity?
