Our wings are not tired

I'd love to see my typos fuck. That would be real entertainment. It would also make me spend more time writing.

Now tagless for your comfort.

What in the hell is a worf?

A Klingon serving as an officer on the starship Enterprise?

Sean, why do you hate America?

BWAH!

I think a lot of people might feel that it's worse to be evil and do evil while hiding behind a think veneer or godliness or respectability. I know I do.

I like my evil...well...evil. It's easier to see and easier to avoid. There is an Alfred Hitchcock quote somewhere about the film Shadow of a Doubt where he talks about how true evil is attractive and therefore, harder to spot and more dangerous.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

I can deal with being Jack Black.
I don't have a problem with you being Jack Black. I have the problem with seeing it. If you could just be Jack Black in the privacy of your own home, like those pesky homosexuals, it would be much more family friendly around here.

Can we start calling Kat Tiny little kitten of joy and love ?

If you do, I won't be held responsible for the havoc I will wreak on you.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I like my evil...well...evil. It's easier to see and easier to avoid.

Straight-up, tie-you-to-the-railroad-tracks, soon-my-death-ray-will-destroy-Metropolis EVIL.

There is an Alfred Hitchcock quote somewhere about the film Shadow of a Doubt where he talks about how true evil is attractive and therefore, harder to spot and more dangerous.

Albert Brooks says much the same thing in Broadcast News: "What do you think the Devil is going to look like if he's around? Nobody is going to be taken in if he has a long, red, pointy tail. No. I'm semi-serious here. He will look attractive and he will be nice and helpful and he will get a job where he influences a great God-fearing nation and he will never do an evil thing... he will just bit by little bit lower standards where they are important. Just coax along flash over substance... Just a tiny bit. And he will talk about all of us really being salesmen. And he'll get all the great women."

Silence means security silence means approval

Xenu =! Satan

I'm referring to the Crowley influence and the Hubbard's history with the Church of Satan.

Wait, maybe I've said too much. Well, it's not like we have anything that we could lose in a lawsuit.

Half the stuff I'm seen Christian churches do reviles me more than what Satanists are reputed to do.

We eat hunks of bread that may or may not be transubstantiated into the body of a nearly 2000 year old guy. Satanists kill cats.

Actually, Satanists rule.

I'd be curious to know more of the details about this. This is exactly the kind of group I see touted by the media/churches/etc as the Satanic cult bogeyman we're supposed to be afraid of.

I'll see if I can find details, but this is the late 80s in Oklahoma, so there's probably not a lot about it on the web. Short synopsis is that it was a group of white kids in Tulsa with ties to both skinhead groups in Dallas and white supremicist groups in eastern OK/western AR (one of which had ties to McVeigh). They weren't card-carrying members of the Church of Satan; I'd say they were more "devil worshippers," having this kind of syncretism of faux-Satanism and white supremacy. They finally broke apart after they a few of them got busted for beating up some black kids. But yeah, definitely devil worshippers.

"Satanist" is definitely a bogeyman term. The total number of true LaVeyan Satanists in America is probably not much larger than Wisconsin Synod Lutherans (400K), though there are probably a million who "claim" membership.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

She's like a doctor version of me.

She totally is!

I am really enjoying How I Met Your Mother, but I think it's just because it's basically about me and my friends.
