State of the Feren

It is 1904 hours on Friday, the first of November 2002, and I'm halfway in the bag. I am moving quickly to being three-quarters of the way in the bag, then hopefully I'll fall all the way into the bag. Skyy vodka, meet cranberry juice. Cranberry juice, meet Skyy vodka. Awww, they're friendly!

I had cool conversations with a coworker today. I went through a lot of nostalgia and gained a bit of insight into myself. I won't say I understand myself better, but I gained some insight into why I do the things that I do.

Epiphanies can be frightening.

Today was pay day.

I am so ready for this weekend.

I realized that our Arlington campus is putting Stupid in the water supply again. Put on your orange jump suits, you're going to Logic Prison.

I got to chat with 2_gryphon for a bit tonight.

I still don't understand females.

I probably never will.

I got my new PC up and running. It's stable, and it doesn't seem to go over 48 degrees Celsius now that I've hosed the AMD down with ceramic thermal compound.

I have kick ass friends.

I got to ride in a 2000 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am at 111 miles per hour down Illinois Rt. 83 in Elmhurst, Illinois.

Life is.

Words, words... I am not PC.

Since I'm in an odd mood, and the LiveJournal bug has bitten me squarely in the ass I will now post a list of words and/or phrases that make me angry. I would gladly pay to see anybody who uses these words have a traumatic introduction of their head to a tire iron at something resembling 130 miles per hour. This list is not all-encompassing. It is subject to change at any time.

In no particular order:

• Bling
  
• *lol*
  
• *rofl*
  
• phat
  
• thugz
  
• w00t
  
• "Icy Hot Stuntaz"
  
• Nigger
  
• w00t (because I hate it that much)
  
• dwaggin
  
• Martha Stewart
  
• "Fucking greedy Republicans"
  
• "Fucking bleeding-heart liberal"
  
• Democrat
  
• "Fucking mundanes"
  
• "Fucking furries"
  
• "Fucking fags"
  
• Gay Pride
  
• Black Pride
  
• White Power
  
• "Ebonics is a legitimate language"
  
• niggaz
  
• Politically Correct
  

I reserve the right to add your stupid slang or phrase to my list at any time. I reserve the right to remove it any time. You are here to amuse me, so dance goddammit! DANCE YOU STUPID PUPPETS!

"The problem with defending the purity of the English language is that English is about as pure as a cribhouse whore. We don't just borrow words; on occasion, English has pursued other languages down alleyways to beat them unconscious and rifle their pockets for new vocabulary." - James D. Nicoll

Notice that Mister Nicoll doesn't say we chase ignorant, uneducated apes down alleyways and beat them unconscious to gain vocabulary, only other languages. Speak the language right or cut out your voicebox, would you?
