Sheesh, a nice little lady weighing 37 pounds and with a Spanish surname under miraculous conditions gives birth to a baby, and you get slop like this in response to it: AOL Message Boards

I guess there's not a whole amount of terribly interesting stuff to talk about in reference to it--"God Bless The New Baby!" does get old-- but calling her a freak (for an inborn condition), him a freak (for actually loving a woman based on her personality and because of and in spite of her nontraditional looks, and, *gasp* having sexual relations with her), and assuming the two of them are naturally illegal aliens (and making wonderfully *insightful* comments about it) just because of their names is-- to fight fire with fire-- "retarded and gay, man." Plus-- WTF about the rants about Jewish people? WTF???

I don't really like the setup of the new messageboard system, anyway. It's in no real coherent order, and it's threaded all wrong. You can't even find the initial posts (the ones titled on the lists) in the threads; I tried to do my traditional Hiroshima rant last year, and I couldn't even find my own responses to things!

Anyway, people make me want to smack them, sometimes. A lot of times, actually. People in masses are annoying. I prefer them individually, on a one-to-one basis. People in crowds tend to act dumb.



Your Candy Heart Says "First Kiss"

You're a true romantic who brings an innocent hope to each new relationship.
You see the good in every person you date, and you relish each step of falling in love.

Your ideal Valentine's Day date: a romantic dinner your sweetie cooks for you

Your flirting style: friendly and sweet

What turns you off: cynics who don't believe in romance

Why you're hot: you always keep the romance alive


Ha ha, what was that that I said last night, about that, that really disturbed everybody?

You Are a Natural Beauty!

You're the kind of beauty that every guy dreams about...
One that looks good in the morning - without a stich of makeup
That's doesn't mean you're a total hippie chic though
You have style, but for you, style is effortless


. . . or I just look like a slob, lol . . . :-P

Mrs. Sheline ruined Alice in Wonderland for me, lol . . . and I might have read some of Madeleine L'Engle's Time Quartet, I just don't remember now . . . and I didn't read the last of His Dark Materials, just the first two (hey, kind of like how I only saw the first two Lord of the Rings? Lol . . . ). I only read the last of The Once and Future King, too; it was for school, and, after I read that for the project that I had to do on that (every group-- out of four-- had to do a different section), I really didn't want to read the rest, lol . . . boring, and, well, I already knew what was going to happen . . .
