I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

HMOG, that Prince clip. That's him at 19? Fuckin' 19? And he made his first demo tape, the one that got him a shitload of contract offers (which he turned down because they wouldn't let him produce as well as perform) at 15? Just... HMOG. Was there ever a time when he wasn't perfect?

Or, as Emmett asked, awestruck, some time ago, Who taught Prince to be so good?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

And he made his first demo tape, the one that got him a shitload of contract offers at 15?

On which he played all of the instruments, BTW.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Additionally, I feel confident it will never work and those involved in its promulgation will be smeared with legitimate criticism for a blatant attempt to shield, protect and curry favor with interests that have brought shame on this state, badly hurt our economic efforts directed at creating jobs and continue to this day to cause our State to be held in disrepute for “justice for sale" - Harriet Miers

OK.

Man, I love that kid. Also Prince. But in a different way.

Before he purified himself in the waters of Lake Minnetonka?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

If I put the cell phone next to my monitor, my monitor flickers right before the phone beeps to tell me I have a text message. It's like having an early warning system.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

My phone will make my computer make little bzt-bzt noises -- I think it's kind of cool, once I figured it out.

I love little baby Prince!

We actually had an ice break during the class. I was not the worst off.

That's... something. Not something good, I don't think, but something.

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

Not your tag, Perkins - Consuela's suddenly seemed to be attributed to Bruce in the wilds of my head.

Prince was pretty damned perfect now he's rumoured to be avoiding hip surgery because of the likelihood of a transfusion being involved. Man's changed. No longer working from his own interpretation of the text.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Not your tag, Perkins - Consuela's suddenly seemed to be attributed to Bruce in the wilds of my head.

Wait, you mean it's not all about me?

I don't think I like that idea.

Since it is all about me, that fact doesn't matter.
