Why are the "minority" kids relegated to the backup singing and C level plotlines?
Because they're paper-thin stereotypes who would probably collapse under the weight of a real storyline that treated them like people?
(Um, yeah. I hated this show a lot.)
Had fun playing games w/ roommate and her friends last night. I reigned victorious, which is always a bonus. But now I'm up two hours later than I'd planned.
Watching Glee and last night's old Criminal Minds back-to-back turns out to be surprisingly creepy...
I just had to take my aunt to task for forwarding me a "White Pride" email. WTF? Before coffee, even. Fucking racists.
I'm officially seceding from my family. Who wants to belong to my new one?
I wonder if the schools who decide to not broadcast the president's speech will excuse the absence of any kid whose parents want to keep them home to watch the speech.

Do you offer dual citizenship? If so, sign me up.

Oh, yeah. No need to leave your current family if they are cool--unlike mine.
Awesome. I'm in. I only WISH I could sign my official papers in Vegas.
I'll join your new family, Cash. The kids thought I was making shit up when I told them that some schools weren't broadcasting the speech.
Bracing myself for going to my brother's house for his grand daughter's 1st birthday. My brother is politically in a different world than the rest of my family. We are usually pretty good about avoiding the off limits topics. My mom doesn't know where she went wrong with him, but honestly suspects he has been brain washed by FOX News. I don't know exactly when he veered down a different path. In his early teens he was in anti-war protests in DC. He worked for a couple decades in a drug and alcohol rehab center. Street level going and picking up unconscious people in alleys and cleaning them up and stuff.
Now he wears "I'll keep my money and guns, you keep the Change" t-shirts. Which is kinda funny since he has neither money or guns. Every single one of his kids with 3 women is on public assistance of some kind, as is his ex-wife who still lives with him. eta: and the new grandchild with the teen unwed mother is on assistance of course
Um, short version. Most of my family I'll keep, but I'd be happy to call Buffistas family.
