Refrain! resist! Wafuse!

Okay so I'm resisting the temptation to talk about my personal life cuz A) nobody wants to read that stuff and B) having my whole life out for all the world to see is a little disturbing.
All's I'll say is the Batman marathon (wimpy marathon with only two movies) went really well. It was a lot of fun :) and I had some awesome people over.
Me and some friends are now planning a Harry Potter marathon (much more impressive) to do the day Half Blood Prince hits theatres but I think I'll invite less people for that one becuz people are whiny and I can only invite truly committed ones ;)

July 17th guys!!!!!!!!!! Not that I'm excited or anything :)

You can be my yoko ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my yoko ono.

Gitmo trials

Okay so when it comes to really high level trials dealing with the government where, for safety and national security's sake they have to lie, you really cannot believe a whole lot of the stuff you read in newspapers because the news is really far down on the food chain. So you take everything here with a grain of salt.
I have a problem though, just with the last line:

Meanwhile, Vijay Padmanabhan, a former state department lawyer, said the creation of the Guantánamo Bay detention camp was "one of the worst over-reactions of the Bush administration".

Does he have ANY idea what middle eastern terrorists do to their POWs? Torture them, chop off their heads, desecrate the bodies, its not pretty.
The Bush government wasn't just being paranoid and throwing random joe's in gitmo, these are very bad people.

propriety

Gentleman - A well-mannered and considerate man with high standards of proper behavior.

Lady - exactly the same thing

There's a bunch of other definitions relating to coat of arms and independent wealth and whatnot.
But this is fairly simple, well-mannered, considerate, having high standards of proper behaviour.
Although, this does not really specify as to WHOM those traits need be applied; therefore one must act like this all the time in order to be considered a gentleman/lady. I guess therein lies the challenge.

Wow man, most people can't even keep who their having sex with quiet in the media let alone debilitating, potentially life threatening diseases. I'm impressed. Course now that she's not an MP and has no more political posturing to keep up; Stronach is going to be THE new breast cancer champion and goodness knows we don't have enough of those.
Please keep in mind, I am not completely insensitive to women (and the small percentage of men) who suffer from breast cancer; it sucks royally. But I am a strong opponent of feminism and thats what the breast cancer cause has turned into; you feel guilty for not donating/running/shopping/buying m&ms because then everybody's all like "*gasp* you hate women?!" and I just don't like that. There are lots of other cancers and diseases (like rheumatoid arthritis/disease which my grandfather has and I have a stronger emotional connection to) which do not recieve NEARLY as much attention as breast cancer merely because they are not championed by feminist celebrities like Oprah.
Case in point

tres heureux

Oi, my head is so full of french I think it may explode but I got the thing I needed to get done FINI!!! Woot :) So thats good.

OMG I'm having a Batman Begins/Dark Knight movie night! I've invited a ton of friends (or at least most of them are friends) although some people have other things but it will still be fun :D G is coming so he'll finally see my house.

I have decided to boycott the use of any text language: "lol" "rofl" "lmao" "brb" "ttyl" ALL OF IT. I find myself using those more than real words to communicate my emotions and that is sad in and of itself therefore: NO MORE! I am triumphing :)

See, and as wonderful as life saving birds are. I would still rather choke on cereal than have a bird in my house. Those buggers are LOUD and INCESSANT.

ARA vs the Aryan Guard

I can't really take sides cuz they both suck.
ARA is racist against whites and AG is racist towards... everyone else. Plus both of them try to hide their agendas and make themselves sound better than they really are.

Ack a-freaking-Lack!

Ugh. SOOOO many applications to fill out, asking me questions I don't know the answers to. And I could get all existential about that but I SO do NOT have the mental space. On the bright side; I'm applying for a summer internship that would basically pay really well and take me away the whole summer. Which would be AWESOME! Get away from my city for a bit, do some activismy type things, get away from the stupid people who's thoughts lives revolve solely around themselves. It would be nice. But I have to get accepted to said internship so back to slaving away at my antiquated typewriter ;) jk

Mother Teresa

Kay so I was all excited cuz I thought that Mother Teresa and I had the same birthday buuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut then I found something contradicting that and then I found Something kinda contradicting both lol

But she considered her birthday to be the 27th so I'll go with that :)

OMG! Guys! Did you know Mother Teresa and I had the same birthday?!

crazy wacky ice baby

Okay I've officially seen the weirdest/coolest/most annoying ice formations this year! I love you Canada <3 :)

Anywho, I guess you've decided not to forgive me. Which kinda sucks. A lot. But thats okay, we're not really that close anymore so its no longer the elephant in the room of every convo we have :p

Yet another thing for the conservative blogosphere to pounce on... Not me today though. I'm getting a little sick of it; when the majority of your blog posts become all about tearing down the opposition, you're only pulling them down to your level. Yes Liberals have stupid politics, yes some of them are stupid on their own and yes we all think they have the wrong ideology. But stop tearing them down and start promoting awesome stuff that the Tory's are doing. That will do much more good than just whining about the other side.

comedic timing

I would be an intensely sucky comedian. My timing is SO OFF.

I managed to screw it up again. Before we'd even patched up the last screw up. I am talented... And stupid. And rash. And impulsive. And WAY too quick to anger. And in need of a tongue leash so it can't get away from me like that again.
I'm sorry. 100x over.

Apology

You won't talk to me so I guess I'll put this here

I assumed that if a mass email was sent out to the whole church; the children of the person who sent the email would know about it.
I'm sorry you don't appreciate condolences after a loved one is lost; I'll try to remember that in future because I had no intention of causing you or your sister any pain. I only wished to offer support (which you apparently don't want) and love.
I hope you'll forgive me and I'm very sorry for your loss.

OMFG

As happy as I am that it is now not federally funded, wtf went down there? I DON'T GET IT. He's the freaking Obamessiah if he can do that. I don't even get it... I'm amazed lol.

UGH lame sauce move dude. Who the heck does that? TO HIS CANCER STRICKEN WIFE?! Ick.

Now that sounds scientific:It even worse than I thought!

Being cool :p

Stop always needing to have the last word and sayin stupid stuff like "I'm over it". Dude you're the only one who cares, stop trying to be so cool and you'll find a girl.

All that jazz....

The toxic levels of navel gazing I'm seeing on certain people's blogs is really quite sad. Honestly people: stop being so self-centred! Get off your pointlessly pontificating arses and do something. Anything!

Anarchy Gotta love it!

I wonder if the author realized just how ridiculous/ironic his title was...

Anti-Semitism apparently never goes out of style...

bad blush

Yuck. Obviously an unflattering photo lol but thats pretty scary.

I dunno much about her (McCain) yet but I'm interested now. Or more specifically, I'm interested in the Mother of all Conservatism cuz it looks cool and I might take a boo at McCain's daughter's blog although really? McCain Blogette? Gag me with a chain saw...

NOOOOOO HOWCE

So 10th new house here I come! :)
I'm actually really excited even though I'm moving even farther away from my school than I live now but I'm graduating this year so that won't be too too bad.
Its gorgeous! I cannot wait to move in! Plus we're going to own this house so I get to paint my room!
Everyone keep suggesting I paint it goth colours, in case you didn't know: I AM NOT A GOTH CHICK. Its nothing against them I just don't happen to be one and I do NOT want a boring depressing, black, room cuz thats BO-RING.

Anywho. Yeah. We're moving to this little hamlet like 4kms away from my city. Its like my city's Alaska lol. There in spirit just not geographically ;)

Anywho, I gotta go study before the bball game, talk to y'all later!

You may sound like a pretentious snob using this word in mixed company and this blog cannot be held responsible for your subsequent lack of stupid friends.

Zhen

Yay for distress causing ;)

Poor guy

I'm sorry. I just have to smother a giggle everytime I see this cuz its a commonly referenced newspaper in the blogs I read. Can you imagine having the last name Huffington? You'd get the weirdest/best nicknames EVER

Best language ever

Somehow I doubt any other language could fully capture all the wonderful insults buddy serves up... Its just that good. This is what I aspire to.

Thanks Kate. You're warming my heart cockles.

Tax-payer funded hate

My jaw actually dropped while reading this. I was just that appalled.

Feedback

The World Around Me and The Truth Project

No, we wouldn't just accept it if it said you had to kill yourself at 65 to go to Heaven. Its faith. We believe that what is written in the Bible is true. Why? because there is solid historical evidence (secular and religious) that backs it and its writers up. Jesus fulfilled hundreds
of prophecies made hundreds of years before He was born. So no, we don't just accept everything that says "Christian" or "God" or "Jesus" on it. There is evidence, it makes sense. And yeah, we do have clearly defined parameters of what is right and what is wrong. Cuz God put those rules in place to protect us and give us the best life possible. Of the things God says is wrong; nothing good comes from them; being jealous: nothing good; swearing: nothing good; stealing: nothing good; sex before marriage: nothing good. You don't believe me? There are
tons of resources and books by people smarter than you and me put together (we're smart people, thats a lot of IQ points :)) who write them not just based on faith, but on actual, undisputed facts.

I doubt you and J were the only ones who recognized the seemingly "close-mindedness" of the program. Other people are just like you; afraid of confrontation and still a little confused. They may have been thinking the same thing and just didn't want to say anything like you. I have struggled with the homosexual and abortion questions too; my parents worked with people who've been raped and had abortions or kept the kid and you get mixed results. Its not my place to judge them or yours. Its all up to God because He knows their heart and their choices.

I'm just trying to show you a different point of view. I've had a lot of those types of questions before too.
Please don't get offended, I'm not attacking you or getting mad and I really like reading your blog and getting to know you.

Its ALL meningitis.

flip

are you on crack? No. You're not. Yet. I think you might be soon though. I love you, I hate that you've started on this path. And you! You're partially to blame.

You know. I liked you better when you were just apathetic and ignored me. Now you're actively antagonistic and rude. Your mother obviously forgot to teach you common civility when you were a child. Either that or you just weren't listening. As usual.
