working saturday makes me bitter

ya know, most of the time i enjoy my job, maybe not my boss, or some drama that comes along with any job you work; but overall i dig what i do
even the customers
most of the time,
and then there are those few who make me reconsider going back to stocking shelves, or being a cook, and hiding from society in general...
we are a coffee shop,
i think people expect a full scale restaurant out of us, which is irritating right off the bat
we do soups and wraps, not french fries, or fried chicken, if you want that shit go to the bar down the street...
so this woman comes in the other day and asks what our soups are
they're written on he board right n front of her face...
then she asks if the french onion soup comes with the bread in the bottom and the cheese on the top,
yes, it does
so a few minutes later she comes up complaining the bread soaked up her soup and wants a new bowl of 7 bean soup
if she knew the bread was in there, wouldn't she expect it to soak up some soup?
nobody has any common sense anymore
and i just want to choke them out.
during the week it's not so bad, i have my regulars who i bullshit with and i have a good time,
but as soon as saturday hits, all of these new, mean, unfamiliar faces start showing up, and they're assholes for no good reason but for the fact that they think they're better,
but they're not, half of them are idiots, seriously
we have a wrap called the courthouse and it has either chicken salad or tuna salad and it's written "chicken/tuna salad"
people constantly come up and ask for the chicken tuna wrap....words can't even express my disappointment in mankind everytime this happens
and it's more often than you'd think...
i hate everyone today....

presidential pardons...

...now here's something to get me worked up...

these people were sentenced for a reason
there have been 14 Bush pardons, and most of them are his douche-bag buddies who have been charged with bank fraud, bank embezzlement, misapplication of bank funds...all his rich buddies fucking with OUR money in the bank to make THEIR wallets fatter, it's the same as bank robbery, but since they're part of Bush's posse they get off squeaky clean...

others included someone who KILLED BALD EAGLES and mishandling hazardous waste.
well, i guess THAT makes sense since Bush couldn't care less about the earth or the animals, all he cares about are his pocketbooks

i'm not saying there shouldn't be presidential pardons, but shouldn't WE as the people have some sort of say. all of america knows how crooked and basically just how stupid Bush is, and were giving him this kind of power
next thing you know he'll be letting out sex offenders, or something just as vile...

pardons should be reserved for low-level, first-time, nonviolent drug offenders...or something on that level
not assholes who purposely avoid environmental laws and dump their shit anywhere they feel convenient....
maybe i should find out the main hazardous waste offenders and dump my garbage on their lawns, and shit on their porches...
or porsches

ABC @ 4pm

how much would you bet me oprah never evens has tried half of the food she raves about on her show, the diets, the book club, everything

i just saw an advertisement for OPRAH'S TOP CHOICE some acai berry something, that when i clicked on took me to this. i'm so sick of oprah's name being put on things to sell it. i can respect that she's worked her way from nothing, but what i can't respect is HER. have you ever seen her show, she just interupts people constantly everytime they're trying to get their point across. i saw her interviewing a celebrity who had a drug addiction and i had to change the channel, she loves the sound of her own voice so much she won't listen to anyone else's.

i'm also curious as to whether or not she reads the books she endorses, or if a stagehand does, then gives her cliffsnotes...really what it boils down to is that every page i flip through on the web has oprah's name hidden somewhere in the advertisements...
i feel like i'm the only person in america who doesn't "just love oprah" and be one of her sheep eating what she eats, or reading what she reads
WAKE UP PEOPLE
think for yourselves for once!

typical ohio

this apartment is stagnent
the air is stale
and i seemed to be stapled to the goddamn floor
without a good reason why
my counterpart is not as anxious as i
which makes escape all that much harder
almost impossible

this whole business of us consistantly and constantly at work work work
it's killing me
maybe both of us

i hate money, and that fact that i'm completely dependant on it
maybe i should buy a big piece of land in the middle of nowhere
and we could just live off of it
and fuck the rest of the world
at this point i'd say we're really no missing out on much anyway




and the 'h' button on this damn computer won't work properly

Sunday, November 2, 2008

ooohh jeez...

today was a cool beaner's dream--NO OPEN MIC!

the heavens opened and shined their forgiving light upon me.
maybe i do believe in god...
i think if i had to listen to that same set of good songs sung horribly
i think i would gauge my eardrums out with a pen
but lucky for me he cancelled.
i just find it hard to believe my boss PAYS that guy to suck that bad...


on another note,
the big vote is in 2 days
i'm terrified!
if mccain wins i think i'm packing my bags and moving to england
what other choice do i have??
canada's waiting list is obscene
and i need a quick fix
none of that waiting bullshit
plus the crime rate is a zillion times lower...

celestine prophecy

god, that book is becoming a mind trip
today i saw a guy in the halloween store, he was in his EMT uniform
and his name was kenny
and here's where i think of that book
then think "should i say something to this guy"
but i don't know what on earth i'd say
"so, i'm reading this book that says there isn't such thing as a coincidence, that i'm supposed to meet you for a reason, to learn something."
i remained silent
then he came up to the register behind me, and he was going to be the same thing as i,
a pirate.
how peculiar
two kenny/keni's in medina being a pirate for halloween,
i should've said something to him,
i wonder what i was suppose to learn
maybe i should stop reading that book...

true story...

...every morning i wake up with so much optimism and love for mankind, and every night i go to bed loathing it, you'd think i'd learn....
apparently not

so today an older 'gentleman' orders a wrap with no onions, i put onions on it, go me
so he brings it back up and asks me to make another
which i gladly do
so after he's done eating it he comes up and says
"you know, the wrap was good, but the first one you brought me was SO much bigger than the second"
me: "oh, i'm sorry..."
him: "yeah, i mean, it was like half the size of the first one"
me: "oh, i'm sorry..."
him: "yeah, it was good but it was just SO much smaller"
me: "oh, i'm sorry"
(in my head: so do you really need to say this 500 times-like i didn't understand the first time?)
so as he's about to make his 4th attempt, i say well, SORRY ABOUT THAT
so instead he starts to make for the door
at which i say "YEAH, HAVE A NICE DAY BUDDY" and flipped him off

here's the kicker,
i didn't even make him a new sandwich i just picked out the onion and re-wrapped it
so the moral
that guy's a douche...
and i hate people

until i wake up tomorrow...

today is at a standstill,
life is at a standstill
winter only brings out the worst in everyone
and it's quickly approaching...
although the smell of pumpkins and dried leaves is uplifting on a long walk across town

november 2nd is fast on it's way...
it's beginning to make me nervous-what if the idiots take over the polls?
then were all screwed-AGAIN
people never learn...

maybe i should become a nihilist, so i wouldn't care about the whole thing...
too bad i DO care
probably too much...

tuesdays with channel 43

tuesday nights are indescribable
-street patrol
-jail
need i say more?

these people cannot be serious...
people can't really be that retarded--can they??
i wish i could believe they were paid actors

on another note,
i need to become my own boss
just so i don't get treated like crap
as if that's really too much to ask
but i guess it must be, since my boss seems to have a terribly hard time being a civil person--not just to me, but to anyone
it won't last much longer, either she changes, or my life does
the later is probably more tangible
kinda
maybe...

i'm moving tomorrow



i wish

the mitten

going home only made me realize how misunderstood i am here
being back with people who know me, sitting around, making stupid jokes, and laughing our asses off about it
i'll never find anyone as rad as my michigoobers

not to say that new friends aren't rad, but i'm not sure ohioioans really get my sense of humor at all
and the fact that i can go home, where everyone's seen me at my worse, and they still love me
nothing is better than that...

although, there are a few bad things about michigan:
*no chipolte near home
q'doba is a HORRIBLE chipotle ripoff
it's not even 1/4 as good
*and wtf 's up with pita pit still being closed?!
*everyone has to bring up afore mentioned "me at my worse" instead of letting it lie

i don't want to work at jimmy's tonight
or cool beans tomorrow morning
i want to win the lottery and spend the rest of my life hanging with people i love, and going on bike trips...

a day in the life...

serving hoity-toity, wanna-be high class society
(at the Taste of Medina)
--it's really something to be witnessed
me in black pants and a button up--
--it's really something to be witnessed

i've come to realize how bottom-barrell i am
and how okay with that i am

and after 13 hrs of beanerism today nothing's better than coming home, putting on my guy's boxer-briefs, laying on the floor with the cat, and listening to audio karate
suddenly i'm given my life back, even if it is only for a minute...
for i have to work again tomorrow...which i'm unprepared to exist at all tomorrow
except for once we get to michigan!!
then life will be good,
and i'm not sure i'll come back,
and if i do it'll be jim dragging me back--kicking and screaming and probably biting too...
i wouldn't be above it

i'm exhausted, my feet hurt, i'm whiny, and i need new music
someone recommend something
somehow 5746 songs just aren't enough for me...

defeated

oh life, you strike again!

so much madness in such a small coffee shop.
i blame the full moon--that's why everyone's crazy
that's why i'm out of my mind...

getting up and going-or i should say the lack thereof--it's getting me down...
i don't give a fuck where i go, i just want to be somewhere----anywhere

everyone complains about their boss--right??
why is my life reduced to a bake case, and doilies
that's right--fucking doilies--they consume me
haunting me in my sleep
mirrors, mirrors, doilies, mirrors...
it tyranical
tyranisaurical
or something like it

one day is pulled into twelve lifetimes
i'm not okay with the timebomb clicking inside of myself
i always find the loveliest ways to disappoint--

--like not putting cream cheese on a customer's bagel
it was the end of his world that we give cream cheese packs
instead of putting it on
so i put it on, and let him know he was an asshole
i hope he becomes a regular
b/c irony is just plain funny

chicken licken

so today's john lennon's birthday and...

the stock market is falling!
the stock market is falling!

everyone just needs to chill the fuck out...
i understand a lot of people have a lot invested in this, but if everyone freaks, they'll start pulling out, and things'll only get worse,
and besides that,
i'm sick of hearing about it...

i didn't vote that dumbass into office, i'm not responsible for how's he's raped america, and everyone stands by and lets him...
i said impeach him
i said don't vote for him AGAIN
so i don't want to hear how fucked we are for our decision in letting a douchebag be our commander in chief
and flush our country right down the shitter

it doesn't help that the republican party headquarters is in such close proximity to my work, i hear these douchebags coming in talking about how great mccain and palin are, and then the idiot i work with joins in their conversation, and i begin to wonder if we even live on the same planet
are they insane
or am i
with how things are looking lately
i'd say it's them...

dissent is the highest form of patriotism...
it means you actually care...

it's the tyra banks show!

i believe the tyra banks show is the most offensive show ever

i just can't believe what a blatant hypocrite she is!
today she has dominatrices on her show, only to tell them how bad it is to be doing what they are doing.
first of all, isn't she all woman power?
secondly, whatever happened to her whole thing on ANTM about being comfortable with our sexualtity.
thirdly, i find it unusual for someone who has done photos like this, and so many naked/half naked photos to judge someone else, such as a woman on her show today, for being a dominatrice...
especially since this woman doesn't even have sex with her clients, she just plays out their submissive fantasies...
tyra says it's wrong b/c she has children
my parents had children, and they still did freaky things behind closed doors, i'm sure
so what
we're humans...

i suppose i assumed that since she was so open about her own body, that she would also have an open mind, she's what gives models a bad rep....all beauty, no brains

AND
then there's a post right before she goes to commercial
"are you a gay male, or female, who wishes not to be anymore, call the tyra show..."
what, is she going to have a priest to pray out the gay???
that show is what's wrong society
well one of the MANY things wrong with society

enter: october

as of late

i am a pine needle in a pile of leaves
a whisper in a crowded room
a wet piece of coal

daydreams are really all that carry me, drifting through a dreary, sunspotted day...
and even they are waining

after some research, getting equipment to fill dreams wasn't disheartening, but i know looking for a location/building will be...vegan coffee house wishes.

information on the real world only brings me down, animal rights, politics...it's a never-ender of depressing facts
and then

woman power??

so, yesterday morning, while working on some "crafts" i flipped through the tele and stumbled across a morning show talking about sara palin. they were discussing all of the negative attention she's been receiving. well, she IS running for VP, egative attention, especially, when she makes it so easy, is bound to happen.
ANYWAY, they were talking about the skit on SNL, and whatnot, and 4 women were sitting around discussing it (no, it wasn't THE VIEW) one women says
"well, women are naturally harder on each other"
(first of all, i'm harder on men, they make more money, for the same amount of work, so i expect if they make more money, they'd better be doing more. i'm not a man-hater, but sometimes, i hate men--with the exception of jim, b/c he's not a douche)
alright getting back on track...
the next woman says,
"yeah, we women need to stick together, and support her"
ok, i do agree women DO need stick together, we ARE the stronger sex, there's more of us, and we live longer
BUT i can't imagine any woman voting for palin, she's as anti-women rights as any right-winged, white-male conservative
she's against abortion (which i REFUSE to call "pro-life" the name should be "anti-rights")
and she isn't trying to raise women's pay.
on average a woman makes 77cents for every dollar a man makes, FOR THE SAME JOB

you're not fooling me, palin, i know you've got your cock and balls tucked up under that dress, it's the only way explain SO MANY THINGS

what's the difference between a bulldog and sara palin?
a bull-dog is loyal

who's your daddy??

so, on some down-time at work while some guy was singing horribly on "open mic night"
slaughtering every song, from the smiths to simon & garfunkel, and some terrible song from the 'juno" soundtrack along with 3 hours worth of his terrible screechy voice, i took solace in the office, where i see a copy of a cosmopolitan magazine, which i believe to be one of the worst magazines on the shelves.
with eye-catching things such as "how to please your man completely" or "how to tell if he's a rapist" (no, i didn't make that up!) and other such degrading things (to both men & women!)
i see it's open to a page of the hottest "sex trends" naturally, i "investigate" and much to my horror i find that home DNA tests are part of that top 10!
are they serious!
has the world gotten THAT promiscuous that there's a need for home DNA testing?
it's almost promoting you to be a slut,
---don't know which one of the 5 guys you slept with 9 months ago is the father?
why, have no fear, there's a home paternity test just for you!

what ever happened to monogomy?
or self-respect?
or common sense?

procreation and other senseless acts

"when it came time to throw bricks through that starbucks window you left me all alone,
all alone..."

so, who's willing to smash the windows at the republican campaign building with me?
morally i believe it's the right thing to do...
i mean, are we really going to allow satan and her minion to become our commander and chief
are we really behind what they stand for?
what SHE stands for??

so, who's with me, i'll bring the rocks, you bring the bricks...


moving on, i don't think people should be able to have anymore children
i heard some mom telling her baby, who was in a stroller, to "SHUT UP! I DON'T WANT TO HEAR YOU"
what the fuck?
the kid was like 2!
other times i see kids without hats on in the blazing sun, or in the freezing winter
some woman was holding her baby like a ragdoll, it makes me sick...
if you can't care for it then don't open your legs
but don't take it out on an innocent child b/c you got knocked up

next, i have some neo-nazi wanna-be convinced i'm jewish, i was trying to prove a point
he follows me around spouting off stupid "nazi facts" that he doesn't really even know about.
he's just desperate for attention, which i refused to give, finally, after a week or so of him coming into my workplace showing off his nazi paraphernalia, i told him he was offending me, so he asked if i was jewish,
i said yes
i was only trying to prove that he seems to like me and that me "being jewish" doesn't change the person i am
but now i'm nervous i'm going to get jumped in a dark alley one night by skinheads
i suppose i have it coming,
i am kind of a douche...

doublethink

"how words become weapons,
how weapons become a message,
& how that message becomes reality"

i think self-education is far more dangerous to society than mass education...

today i've learned so many ways to manipulate language and how language is manipulated against us, how propaganda is seeping in every nook and cranny we thought we had caulked...
how far off track we've been led, how far off the track we've never even been on.

started UNSPEAK by steven poole today
something i think everyone should experience-for your sanity
for the sanity of humanity

next on the list
The Rise of Political Lying by Peter Oborne

nobody's safe

when i talked about conspiracies and 1984
i wasn't that far off

i believe "tolerance" may be one of the ugliest words we use...
we always hear that we should practice tolerance
no,
we should practice acceptance
tolerance is like saying "i still hate it but i'll tolerate as long as it doesn't infringe on me"
acceptance is not caring that people are different, that you love people for the fact that they are living creatures...

words are so ridiculously powerful, and we're always coming up with new ways to say the same old thing, but in a weaker way, new names for old tricks...

"names became weapons.
weapons were given persuasive names.
distinctions were deliberately blurred.
realities were denied.
punishments did not fit the crimes.
language created a permanant war."
--steven poole

"the thing about the gentleman, is that he is anything but casual
where speech is concerned"

we've all sold out

ahhhh,
so after 2-1/2 days the power has decided to come back on
or the power guys decided to fix it, either way i can throw all the candles out now.
i'm not a candle girl-i'm a buy as little as possible, cheap girl
so, power goes out
we get screwed
target candle endcap deals--here we come
it's ridiculous how much corporations can charge for things, and how much we willingly pay
what ever happened to boycotting companies who are trying to rob us
we're not all THAT dumb
are we??
i'm not sure i really want the answer.

also, the little "stove" i bought at the army navy store
well, the stove is great,
the little fuel "logs" they give you....
what a waste
i want my old fuel blocks!
whatever happened to getting your money's worth?
where are the good ol' days
I WANT THEM BACK!
and i never had them in the first place
i think they're a myth
i think this is orwell's 1984 all over again
someone's behind the scene rewriting history as we speak

alright, i don't really believe conspiracy theories like that, but wouldn't it be great if we could blame life on conspiracy theories like such
instead of having to realize the world's just dumb?!

apathetic america

on rainy, dreary, lazy days like this one can only come to one conclusion
television has died
is this really what american television and american brains have turned into

it's so embarrassing
everything about america has turned into a big joke
a horribly unfunny joke
intelligence has taken a vacation and left us struggling in the muck

i burning our television, and locking the world out

to whom it may concern

the day is beautiful
i am wasteful
i have wasted an entire summer
for no good reason
money is indeed the root of all evil
i think after a summer of sunshine
i've finally seen the light

i'm still confused on why i've let myself stay here for so long
why we've let ourselves get comfortable with something we're not comfortable with
we can't snuggle on such an uncomfortable couch

bikes are begging us
states and cities are calling us
why haven't we answered the phone
we just let our dreams ring and ring one the other line
i think it's time we picked up,
our apartment's a sty
b/c we don't respect it enough to just pick up

i think it's time we answered the call

Monday, September 8, 2008

i'm not ready for this sort of thing

i was forced to look at myself today,
realization isn't always pretty

alright, here it is in all it's glory
i'm selfish.
i'm the asshole who gets offended during discussions
that's why i don't do it
i feel WAY to strongly about my opinions on veganism, feminism, politics, ect. not to be offended
i feel SO deeply about everything that i have to force myself not to care about it

besides all of this when i hear other people discussing pointless things that won't change this is what goes through my head:

"Despite your pseudo-bohemian appearance and vaguely leftist doctrine of beliefs, you know nothing ABOUT art or sex that you couldn't read in any trendy new york underground fashion magazine...
Proto-typical non-conformist. You are a vacuous soldier of the thrift store gestapo.
You adhere to a set of standards and tastes that appear to be determined by an unseen panel of hipster judges-BULLSHIT-giving your thumbs up and thumbs down to incoming and outgoing trends and styles of music and art.
Go analog baby, you're so post-modern. You're diving face forward into an antiquated past, it's disgusting! It's offensive! Don't stick your nose up at me!

You spend your time sitting in circles with your friends, pontificating to each other, forever competing for that one moment of self aggrandizing glory in which you hog the intellectual spotlight, holding dominion over the entire SHALLOW....POINTLESS...conversation. Oh we're not worthy.


When you walk by a group of quote-unquote normal people you chuckle to yourself, patting yourself on the back as you scoff.
It's the same superority complex shared by the high school jocks who made your life a living hell, makes you a slave to the competitive capitalist dogma you spend every moment of your waking life BITCHING about!

Well let me tell you this, I am shamelessly self-involved. I spend hours in front of the mirror making my hair elegantly disheveled.
I self-medicate with drugs and alcohol to help treat my extreme social anxiety problem.
You are a FAKER!
ADMIT IT!
You are a FRAUD!
ADMIT IT!
You're living a LIE!
your life is living a lie!
You don't impress me!
You don't intimidate me!
Why don't you bow down, get on the ground, walk this fucking plank! "

oh, say anything, how well you know me

ranting vegan

there only so much i can say about being vegan

people try to have hour long chatting sessions about it, and i'm done in 10 minutes, i try to be accomodating since most of the time they are genuinely interested, not just the douchebags who ask dumb questions to try & get you to "slip up"
example:

q: if a cow willingly gave up it's life for you and WANTED you to eat it--would you?
a: no, dipshit, b/c that's a ridiculous scenario that would NEVER happen, and i refuse to even come up with a pretend answer for your retarded question

or

q: what if it died of natural causes? would you still eat it
a: what if you died of natural causes? should i eat you too?

or lastly

q: what if it died of natural causes? would you wear it's fur then?
a: again, what if you died of natural causes? should i peel your skin off and wear it as a hat?

but as stated above, i try to accomodate those who are actually curious
but frankly, after what is soon to be 5 years, i don't have the patience...
especially when people say how they tried veganism and it was so bad for them, they got so skinny, and gaunt, and blahblahblah
then you aren't doing it right
yes, i've become a vegansnob,
(and yes, i stole that term from bikesnob--but i felt it fit--and i'm thinking if i throw in that it was originally him he won't sue me--although i've read his distain for vegans, i'm still holding on to the dream that he'll marry me---i ramble)

lately it's getting harder and harder for me,
just go home and look it up
and leave me alone

i've stopped telling anyone i'm vegan, but a woman i work with deems it neccessary to inform every customer that enters the coffee shop...why?
i don't know

the whole point is:
your vegetarian? good for you
your vegan? good for you--keep it up

and that's all i want to say to them
unless, you want to swap vegan recipes then i don't want to talk about it

americana

i'm so extremely sick of everybody going on about sara palin's speech,
first i go into to work and the woman i work with pounces,
"did you listen to sara palin's speech?"
and then it's all my coffee consuming customers are chatting about while standing in line waiting for their large, vanilla, double shot, latte, with skim
the line "what's the difference between and hockey mom and a bulldog?"
(this is roughly translated)
"a hockey mom wears lipstick"
and it doesn't get much more redneck than this...
it makes me want to buzz the top of my head,
(obviously keep it party in the back)
leave wal-mart toting nattie light in one hand and and american flag in the other
(does wal-mart even carry beer?---i sure hope so)
and get a tattoo of an eagle on my left calf and a rose on my right boob.

i'm not sure i can be a part of the world today

coffee shop blues

my latte art isn't going as planned...
i knew everyone online made it look easier than it was,
but i thought after the 6th latte i'd have some sort of something down
i'm not expecting to be this good:
http://www.schaft.net/n00bs/diary_img/Latte-Art_1.jpg
but i thought a basic flower wouldn't be over-striving
i guess not
and i think people are getting sick of me trying to sell them lattes
everyone comes in for a damn mocha
whilst i'm trying to blossom as an artist
don't they understand my dilemma?

now summer's winding down, all of the "sweet downtown activities" have packed up and shipped out my job is terribly dull,
and new guy,
he's another story,
he's a douche
to say the VERY least
he doesn't belong in a coffee shop
he belongs working for abercrombie & fitch
where it's cool to dress like an asshole who spends too much time on his appearance
and be a dickhead to everyone

le sigh

in my research

sara palin may be worse than mccain:
overlooking many other things first i'm jumping straight to where a liberal, vegan, peta member would jump:
sara palin supports aerial gun hunts of wolves, which is NOT a sport.
firstly, killing a defenseless animal is with a shotgun is repulsive
secondly, in a low flying plane with height advantage over a terrified running creature proves only cowards who are afraid of their prey would join such a "sport"
oftentimes these poor creatures are shot several times before they die, writhing in agony it is NOT a clean kill, these animals are chased until exhaustion, and then slaughtered.
she also says she'd "rather be moose hunting than be involved in politics"
i bet

next,
she's pro-life
she's voted for a constitutional ammendment banning same sex marriage
SHE SUPPORTS DRILLING IN THE ARCTIC WILDLIFE REFUGE!!
and she's ignorant enough to say she doesn't think global warming is man made
she has only been governor of alaska for 18 MONTHS
yet, is supposed to be strong enough to help rule our nation

mankind strikes again

somedays i'm almost embarrassed t be a part of the human race, like days when i find things like this:
http://thelucyandethelblog.typepad.com/naturalfibers/images/2007/07/11/flipflop2_2.jpg
and how at first i was utterly disgusted at such a lazy, and obviously retarded invention, and then even MORE embarrassed as i was researching them and finding myself thinking "actually, maybe that IS a good idea"
mass consumerism...
of dumb objects...
that people only use once,
it's almost makes me as mad as flushable toilet cleaners
more sanitary? probably
more wasteful? DEFINITELY
and i haven't heard of anyone catching any disease and dying or getting ill from the good ol' fashioned toilet cleaner you leave in a little holder for 2 years hidden behind the toilet...
the whole point is society is becoming so sterile it's wasteful
and in my opinion
dangerous
yes, dangerous
our children's bodies aren't going to build immunities to anything...
i know, a pair of mop shoes, and flushable toilet cleaners aren't going to destroy all humankind
but it just may be the start

and my boss brought me some right-wing bull-shit propaganda to watch--the "clinton chronicles" now i know clinton wasn't the man with the most integrity, but proganda cramps my style--whether it's left-or right wing
i'm tempted to throw it away, i wonder if i'd get fired?
