Damn it! You know what? I'm sick of this crap. I'm sick of being the guy who eats insects and gets the funny syphilis. As of this moment, it's over. I'm finished being everybody's butt monkey!

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

I'm on it, Victor, just waiting for them to hurry up and post those last few

Um. Okay, so I see that we're moving to close the conversation. Except that I just got here and I see this:

At that point people were saying things like "OK John, are you satisfied now? Can we stop the witch-hunt?". And now those same people are still blaming me for causing conflict, and feeling sorry for him? That hurts so much.

And I kind of really feel this needs to be addressed.

So...um...what do I do?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

On it. Anyone else around to close up the old one?

Man, for a liberterian you seem to enjoy authority way too much.

I have a dark side.

I don't want to speak for victor, but I'm betting he'll back me up on this...

All anarchists and libertarians secretly want to be corrupt dictators.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

All anarchists and libertarians secretly want to be corrupt dictators.

But they'll tell you it's just to prove how wrong allowing them that power is.

"See? Without that dictatorial no-crying rule, not only wouldn't I have stomped you, I wouldn't have made you cry in the first place!"

Shit. Okay.

You sip / say it's your crazy / straw say it's you're crazy / as you bicycle your soul / with beauty in your basket

I wrote a kind of long post and I still feel het up and I addressed several people and I don't want to mail them all separately because I don't like to send people non-positive (not exactly *negative*, but-- oh, shut up, I know negative/positive is a binary!) backchannel emails unless I have a really, really serious problem with what they're doing.

And I don't.

Not yet.

And I didn't have the chance earlier because I wasn't home; and I want to post this now.
