I believe gay marriage should be legalized, but that doesn’t mean she has to agree with me.

She should have been judged solely on how well she articulated her point of view. She was clear and respectfully stated her disagreement.

Why is it that in this country freedom of speech is only okay if you LIKE something? This country is TOO concerned with being PC. When you ask someone’s opinion, all you can really ask is that they state it as politely as possible.

Agree to disagree and move on.

I saw this on phillypaper.net and felt the need to post it here.  Some people are scum.

I cannot believe that you stole my middle school basketball team’s uniforms out of my trunk. I mean, I understand that you are a person who steals things out of people’s cars. But wasn’t there a moment, when you started to throw all the mesh jerseys into a bag or whatever, that you thought, “man, this is really about as low as it gets, stealing a bunch of kids’ basketball uniforms”? And did you really decide, “eh, it’s OK”?

Also, what exactly is your plan now that you have these uniforms? You know they say “WCS” on them, right? That stands for “Wissahickon Charter School.” Who are you going to sell them to? What school, church or youth league team is just going to rock “WCS” jerseys?

I’m watching ER (which I like NEVER do) and it’s pandaemonium! Seriously! Blood everywhere. Kiddie Bloods and Crips trying to kill each other IN the hospital. Seriously. One kid was stabbing a kid in triage with a scalpel at least 30 times. I’m like “wtf?!” I’m sure this stuff is overblown for TV, but I can’t help but think this has happened somewhere. There’s also a doomsday cult’s mass suicide that was full of fail. There’s like 10 of those people in there. The ER is totally understaffed and there are also 2 near-death/drowning victims, a teen mom whose belly was sliced open and her baby was stolen, battered 20y/o girl who has obviously been “domestic violenced” (as I like to call it).

Yes! Xavier’s asleep. Time for me to get some noms.

I found this organization through Eliza Dushku’s website. (Joss Whedon is putting Dollhouse on hold because of poor script quality. It sucks to wait, but I trust his judgement)

Anyway… 10,000 Girls is a non-profit in Senegal that offers education and employment opportunities to women. What’s cooler is that th whole thing is run/maintained by the girls. Check it out. I think the site needs a facelift, but it’s still great what 10k girls can do :-p

I’m so sick of so-called friends blowing me off when I need them. Let’s make it clear that I hardly ask anyone for help. Mainly because I’m stubborn, but also because I don’t wanna be a burden. And my wedding list is very VERY tight. Of the 50 guests, 20 are friends and their significant others. I took one person off who’d been my friend for ages yet doesn’t think I’m worth talking to over a fucking shower even I didn’t feel like going to. I can only apologise for something so stupid a couple of times before saying fuck it. Now another friend pulls out of the wedding last night for a super last minute work thing. I don’t buy it coming from the same person who offered to help me move only to ignore my 2 calls, texts and instant messages. There’s no way he didn’t get them but I let it go. But this is my wedding now. It’s one of those things that are bullshit except for the people you have there to enjoy it with. So yes I’m annoyed about the money that may as well have just gone into a paper-shredder, but what I’m more annoyed with is the fact that it was reserved for closest friends but people sure have been lacking.

Let’s see, I never go anywhere or do anything, but when I do, I invite people. I plan ahead and that’s good for some and not for others. I think it’s great that these people go out to dinners, the beach, etc and don’t feel the desire to invite me. I have learned my lesson. That whole friends = family thing dies once you stop going to a club regularly. So to hell with it.
