... I have spent the past four hours finishing The Vampire Lestat, compulsively and repeatedly brushing my teeth, writing godawful smut, and composing long and bitchy rants against whoever pisses me off at the moment.
Insomnia is so much fun.
To our lovely Attorney General:
1984 was not a how-to guide. Defending American freedom does not have to involve curtailing the rights of American citizens, and not all of us are stupid enough to think that it does. If yourFührer President manages to get his sorry ass re-elected, and you get that Patriot Act II bill passed, watch the emigration rates from America in the next four years; I'll be surprised if they don't skyrocket--that is, if you don't pull Congress's strings again and get some legislation passed that makes it impossible to leave if you have so much as a speeding ticket on your record. And remember... you're number 1! *makes appropriate hand gesture, gets carted off to a military tribunal for challenging the administration*
To the RIAA:
Have you ever considered that the 'big stick' approach is not going to entice many people to buy CDs from you? Or that the cheapness of home CD production makes it painfully obvious how much you overcharge us? Don't make a show of being victimized, and don't try to tug our heart-strings by telling us we're stealing from the artists. We all know that you lot have been stealing from the artists for years, and that if we download their album and snail-mail them five bucks, they'll be getting more for it than if we went out and bought your packaged version. Yep, I'm a pirate, you suckers, and I'm proud of it. Sue me.
To the bitchy woman at Autocross:
I do not need you to lecture me on who I should and shouldn't date, especially considering I have never seen you before in my life and have no desire to see you again. A small, discreet rainbow-chain necklace, as far as I'm concerned, is not a method of flaunting one's homosexuality, any more than wearing a wedding ring and tagging along with one's husband to Autocross is flaunting one's heterosexuality. I am also not, for your information, 'one of those grimy butch drag-racers,' nor do I appreciate being labeled as such. Grow the hell up, get a life, and stay out of other peoples' business.
Ahhhh, that was cathartic.
