About Me

I murder people all day long in my head, and I know that you do too. Violent fantasies are the bedrock of civilization. We're allowed to act crazy in our imaginations, as long as we don't act out. The insane are not much different from the rest of us, the only difference is they've lost the ability to tell where their fantasies end and reality begins. It's hard to fault them for their consistency. I say untie the looneys from their straitjackets, open up the doors of the mental wards and let 'em mix it up with the rest of us. It's not like you'd be able to tell the difference, anyway. Especially where I live.
