I wonder if emo makes for good fertiliser...

[Tiste Simeon]

Emo makes good grass, seen as it cuts itself and all that...

I never though I would see the day that Tiste said something funny.

I never thought I would see the day DM didn't say something complainy...

He was indirectly complaining about how unfunny you usually are.

I came across this today while reading FML. I can't see a single thread of logic in this statement. Hilarious though, and totally unrelated.

"Today, I made the mistake of sneezing in front of a hyper religious customer, who for ten minutes proceeded to blame the incident on shifting weather patterns that signaled the return of Jesus, who was, as she explained, upset about the abortion rates in America and President Obama. FML"

Yeah RLY, that's the thing, you can't be sure.

Personally I think the attitude you get from some Christians when they find a reason to hate someone ("zomg that is a sin, kill them they are eeeviil"), and the attitude you get from people around you when you say something is a sin ("zomg she/he said sin, now he/she is gonna hate us and prosecute us and think we are eeeviil") stems from the same confusions and possibly the same traditions and assumptions of what it is to be a Christian. My theory is that it comes from the regular human condition - fear, insecurity and the same functions that make one village go attack the village down the hill, because they are a threat and possible 'inferior'.

If you manage to avoid one ditch, the other one is just across the road and just as easy to end up in. That you sometimes end up in the ditches is human, and as long as you try to stay on the road, it's okay. But some people not only end up in a ditch, they want to be there, they build a trench and fire on anyone that get too close. Tragic really.


Edit: funny Illy, with that template I could prove that you don't exist aswell. Just replace 'God' with 'Illy'. *Illy disappears in a cloud of logic*

Very well put.

Regarding to the distinction between goths and emo. Emo is just Goth+Punk+Gay. So, all Emos have a little goth in them, but not all goths have any emo in them. That's how I understand it.
