You got all kinds of learnin' and you made me look the fool without tryin', and yet here I am with a gun to your head. That's 'cause I got people with me. People who trust each other, who do for each other, and ain't always lookin' for the advantage.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Being pimped by your father is less ooky than doing him, but I feel I'm splitting hairs.

Sort of like the eternal dilemma of: if you had to fuck either Carrot Top or Andy Dick, who would you choose?

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I can imagine knowing well meaning people who are into neither the property nor incestous angles of it, participating in such a thing.

Oh, I'm fairly certain that members of my extended family would've done this sort of thing when their daughters were young if Dobson and his ilk had thought of it by then. That said, I don't think that these people are at the forefront of self-analysis, and it is quite telling that the father of the family hand-picked each of his daughters' husbands and has used his considerable influence with the Army (he's a Colonel) to shape these young men into mini-Mes.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

That's definitely way into creepy territory (to Corwood).

It isn't the birds singing in the early AM that make me want to throw things. It's the mockingbirds singing at 2 AM or so. On and on and on. (I found out recently that the Beatles "Blackbird" song is about an English-type songbird (not a corvid or starling) that does the same.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I think that's overstating the case, although I'd have rather died than gone to one of those dances.

Oh, I'm fairly certain that members of my extended family would've done this sort of thing

That's why I specifically said OVERLY interested.

You can want your children to do X or Y and even encourage it within the family, but when you're devoting web pages and books and public excursions to bragging about sacredity of your daugther's cherries you've moved into overly interested.

Which is just going to seem dirty without the sweet purity of flat out owning her ass.

Always Anti-fascist!

Just, yikes... And it took me forever to lose my...purity. Who wants to be the oldest girl at the Purity Ball?

Y'know, it just now occurred to me that the Purity Ball is the exact opposite of Motherboy.

"Motherboy was the name of an annual dance promoting mother-son bonding. Lucille has gone with Buster over 30 times, and on many occasions, won cutest couple. But as one entered sexual maturity and the other one left it, it became increasingly difficult."

Lucille: [Buster and Lucille are getting their picture taken] I'm so hot.
Buster: If you were hot, mother, we would win!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Heeeeerrrrreeeee motivation,motivation, motivation! Heeeeeerrrrrrreeee motivation, motivation, motivation! I have some nice things for you to do this morning!

OMG, no lie. So far this week, I've actually worked about 6 hours total. In 3 days. I've web surfed, checked b.org, checked LJ, done homework, etc. Have not done much work work. And, I still don't wanna.

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

You know what's kind of annoying? When you have to ask 4 people to okay something, and you call 3 of them after hours, miraculously find them all in their office, even though it's after 6:00 local time, and get their okay, but then discover that the 4th one is on vacation, and won't be back for a week, and isn't looking at his email or listening to his voice mail, which means that you have to a) wait a week to finish a 20 minute project, and b) have to ask the other 3 people, who didn't want to bother with the question the first time, to okay it all over again, since too much time will have passed.
