...oh...kayyyy....

I wished someone a Happy New Year.

She responded, snippily, that she doesn't mark the passage of the years -- it's all arbitrary anyhow.

It's official. There isn't a holiday on the books that someone doesn't hate.

One of the problems with being a liberal is you build up friendships with people more on the fringe. Moderate Conservatives have to cope with Dittoheads and Jingoists spinning everything in their direction. I have to deal with people for whom every societal creation is somehow oppressive or bourgeois. Or worse, oppressively bourgeois.

I find the term "bourgeois" both offensive and oppressive. I'm going to write a nasty letter to my local weekly newspaper about you.

Alternative newspapers are a tool of a patriarchal conspiracy to funnel legitimate dissent into nice safe, "convenient" boxes! You are so getting ranted about at the next Poetry Slam!
