You know you're made of awesome, right flist? You are. Thanks for all encouragement and support :) Many wibes of Good Things your way.
Took a slight break from everything, including WoW and fandom and I think it was good. Easter holidays are also coming, which is good too. Now only to decide what to do with it - WoW, work or watching more Inspector Lynley? Hmm. Choices, choices.
(What I will not be doing is skiing. Because the weather has been made of fail and and seem to continue the trend. Bleh.)
A Thing of Awesome that won't be, sadly:
He's a man of myth, legend, and internet memes -- a Paladin crusader for Truthiness, justice, and the Alliance way. His name is Stefen Colbear, and he's putting the Horde on notice.
Bwhahahaha.
A Yeah-That'll-Work:
Ban on anonymous Internet posting?
A FAIL FAIL FAIL:
The gay community poses “bigger threat, even more so than terrorists or Islam,” to the United States, according to American politician.
ERROR ERROR SANITY.EXE NOT FOUND REBOOT BRAIN AND TRY AGAIN.
Also made of fail her claim that studies show that no society that has embraced homosexuality has lasted more than a few decades to which I counter exibit a) Scandinavia, marrier of gays since over a decade ago and extremely prosperous to boot. I embrace homosexuality in your direction, bigot.
A Eurosong entry from Norway:
Bleh. (And who didn't win - King of trolls.)
A Holy-what-will-we-do-with-all-this-money:
Oil prices rice, Norway is stuffed.
Chief economist Øystein Dørum also noted that the state's so-called "oil fund," into which revenues are set aside for future generations and pension obligations, will grow to a staggering NOK 5,700 billion by 2015 HOLY SHIT that's almost 1000 billion USD owned by tiny, tiny Norway of 4,6 million people. HOLY SHIT.
A Meme that sounds like fun:
The thing is, when people look for stories, they always make it sound like badfic. Now, often that's because it really is badfic, but sometimes it's good and they just suck at describing the story.
So, your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to summarize badly any one (or more!) of my stories and I'll try to guess which it is. You could even pretend you don't remember the pairing or fandom to make it harder to guess.
In the news:
Germany upholds incest law.
Indian court dismisses 'obscenity' charges against Richard Gere.
Spitzer's fall from grace.
Antarctica meteors 'unique'.
'Pre-Inca' ruins found.

Right, because so many modern societies have embraced homosexuality and fallen over a long enough period of time that such a claim makes perfect sense. (If this is how she uses the word "studies" in a sentence, I'd have hated to be the teacher grading her papers in school!)

At least Spain have a good entry - an Elvisy kind of bloke with a widdle plastic guitar and a TV comedian to boot.
Me? I'm voting for Dusty the Turkey from Ireland.

Date: 2008-03-16 01:50 pm (UTC)So thank you batshit lady for giving us Conservatives (and those of us "from" ((though I hate going back there)) the Midwest) a bad name.
I should tear out your hair and kick you in the vagina for being an idiot and trying to blame the LGBT community for preaching acceptance. Honestly. Just accept the fact that people are created equal in the sense that we are all wonderful and get the hell over it.
(And you know what's scary? I have family who would agree with that woman. Oh, the joys of the ultra-conservative, hypocritical white family. How I wish thee would get off my back sometimes about my hair being so short and my shirts being too tight and my father not moving back. Oh, good times.)
Yay Easter. Hurrah chocolate and excuses to blow off everything else.
