It’s very frustrating to think that the governments of the world would sweep in and stifle any public knowledge and further development, if human beings devised a way to fly or teleport under their own power (and perhaps, in a labratory somewhere, they already have). Something that could make the world such a better place, and it may never be allowed due to petty tactical and financial concerns.

If it were as simple as overcoming laziness, I’d have done it long ago.

If it were as simple as choosing to want to be happy, I’d be happy as I type this.

If there’s a way that I can get past being the intensely critical, irrationally driven, hopelessly distracted, needlessly destructive, morbidly obsessive, terribly sad person that I am, I will continue to go to hell and back every chance that I get to find it.

Until that day comes, don’t you fucking dare even think about trivializing what I go through for one more second, you son of a bitch. You’re not me, you never have been, and you never will be. For this, contrary to your present opinion, you should count your blessings every single day. If you’d open your eyes wide enough to see past the bullshit we’ve been fed our entire lives, perhaps you’d see that I’m right. The grass is always greener on the other side of the asylum fence.

“aching for teen rectum concertinas?”

What the HELL does that mean?

“Like an afterburner for your schlong.”

Trent Reznor Sues John Malm For A Shitload Of Money

And here I thought John was such a nice guy…*snicker*

Reminder to all aspiring musicians: READ YOUR GODDAMNED LEGAL CONTRACTS!

A bowl of Franken Berry with actual strawberries and bananas in there too. Apparently, the rare, splendid goodness that is Franken Berry wasn’t enough for Mr. Man this morning, so I decided I needed to make things a little “edgier”. Take it up a notch, if you will.

In fairness here, I did stop short of using Johnnie Walker Blue Label instead of milk. Barely.

There seems to be a school of thought developing that suggests our friend Elena is full of shit. Be interesting to see how this plays out. Regardless, great pictures anyway. I also find it kinda funny that more people are upset about her being married than a liar.

(Thanks to Slashdot for mentioning this)

OK, so iTunes exists, and is hugely popular. It’s also a total memory hog. How about you bitches get to work on an MP3 player with a small memory footprint that DOESN’T suck (*cough*cough*Cabrio and Mint*cough*cough*)?

And don’t even bring up Audion.

Due to circumstances beyond ours and Blue Scream’s control, the May 21st show at the Paradox nightclub is cancelled. Sorry for any convenience or confusion this may have caused. Murder In The Dark will still be playing at Alchemy on Monday, July 12th, and more dates will be added as soon as possible.

Check this contest out! (Submitted by Aaron, thanks!)

My wish:

“I wish I could take the Wienermobile and ram it into the Louis Rich Vaginamobile AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN! Never mind that there is no Louis Rich Vaginamobile! You asked for a “wish”, and that’s mine! HAHAHAHAHAHA!”

…it’s because I’ve been locking it out for the most part, in anticipation of Movable Type 3.0, which offers broader control over who can post comments (allowing you to moderate and such). Well, it was released yesterday, and they made it crippleware.

I’m not against software developers getting paid, don’t get me wrong, but $200 for a friggin’ weblog app if I want to have this site be a “commercial” one? Christ. Even if I took all evidence of commerce off of this site, I’d still have to disable functionality for my other authors (however sporadic their content may be), otherwise I’d be paying $70-100 (depending on how long the “introductory” price lasts) just to bring you folks Baller and justj0hn! This makes re-embedding the LiveJournal in the next version of the site actually look like a sane idea. How frustrating. Hopefully, the fact that the entire Internet seems to be screaming bloody murder right now will make the MT folks come to their senses and stop what effectively feels like blackmail.

“Pay us, or you’ll never be rid of comment spammers!”

What a load of crap.

NASCAR makes you gay.

I must stress at this point that there’s absolutely NOTHING wrong whatsoever with being gay. Seriously, if I had a problem with gay people, I wouldn’t own so many of their albums. (You know I love you, Marshall. :P)

I’m merely pointing the above revelation out because I’m sure some of you folks in the audience are still trying to figure out how to be gay, and this is currently the quickest route I know about.

I’m posting compulsively on the new Blue Blood forums.

Kudos to Amelia and Forrest on a job well done. The site looks solid, kids.
