On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

first when my roommate made the rather bold claim that white males are the only group that is legally oppressed by federal law in this country,

So...your friend has never looked at the pictures of CEOs in the Fortune 500 I presume.

I'm pretty hot and bothered by this, and stunned almost beyond the capacity for rational thought.

Go listen to TMBG's "Your Racist Friend." It'll help focus the righteous anger, so it won't just make you all het up.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Gah, Sean, I'm thoroughly creeped out on your behalf. (And I think you need a new cool roommate. One who won't run off to fucking Tucson on you.)

No harshing on the old roomie. He did what he had to do. But yes, I agree with your salient point.

What is even happening?

Oh my word, Sean. I am so sorry. I don't know what kind of filthy rock someone must live under, to be able to deny the holocaust.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

None of my friends have a rock that big.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Dude, I am so over The O.C. Seth is whiny and annoying, Kirsten has bad hair -- actually, almost all the characters have bad hair, especially Zach -- and the Trey thing is annoying.

Though Sandy is still Teh HOTT, and Julie Cooper continues to crack my shit up.

Why did I watch it, you ask? Well, I'm lying on the couch, full of muscle relaxers for my back, which I wrenched changing my tire yesterday, and I'm all relaxed, which must mean they're working, and sucked into the couch by some kind of centripedal force.

And everywhere else, too. I...you know someone in their 20s or 30s...I always assume the parents are in some supremacist group, and/or profoundly stupid. I know these people exist, but I can't wrap my brains around the how of it. I think I want to be a Denier Denier.

centripedal force

Hey, junkie--it's centrifugal.

(This is going to turn out to be some cartoon reference that's flown right over my head.)
