She's Decided.......

About Me

Theres a joke that goes... Whats the difference between a redhead and a terrorist?......You can negotiate with a terrorist. I thought this was funny because it fit so well. Argue with me all you want, theres certain things that i wont negotiate, compromise or back down from. And its not because i blindly believe in things. Its because i have thought them out, and feel that strongly about them.

I think mimicry is the highest form of flattery. Be careful who you choose to flatter though. It reveals more of your character than you know.

I'll joke about anything. Nothing is off limits, so dont take offense. I'm not meaning to be cruel or inhuman. But if we cant take a joke, what are we really doing here anyways?

Who you want to be is part of who you are. However, I'm not interested in how you'd like me to perceive you. So I'll pass on the smoke and mirrors, k thanks.

And a pet peeve of mine.... name dropping. Í think its tacky and yea.. I'll either launch into a long rant or just abruptly drop the conversation. Either way, respect is lost. And I'll never take you seriously again. Just dont do it.

I'm genuinely a good person. I can't help it.

Oh yea, I'm a quote junkie...

Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature......

"While the rest of the species is descended from apes, redheads are descended from cats." -Mark Twain

Lets have some new cliches. *smiles* .....

Religion is not merely the opium of the masses, it's the cyanide. ....

There are two kinds of people in this world : those who believe there are two kinds of people in this world and those who are smart enough to know better.....

There are many things worth living for, a few things worth dying for, and none worth killing for. .....

When i came to die, discover I had not lived (Thoreau)

You have conquered, and I yield. Yet, henceforward, art thou also dead--dead to the World, to heaven and to Hope!In me didst thou exist--and, in my death, see by this image, which is thine own, how utterly thou hast murdered thyself. (Edgar Allen Poe)

If you lack the iron and the fizz to take control of your own life, then the gods will repay your weakness by having a grin or two at your expense. Should you fail to pilot your own ship, don't be surprised at what inappropriate port you find yourself docked......

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Tom Robbins. The guy is a genius with the english language. The best books aren't the page-turners you can read in a couple days like John Grisham novels. These are junk food books. The best books are the ones that make you want to read them very very slowly to absorb everything you can from them, to spend more time reading the words than the author spent writing them. These are Tom Robbins books. Effin beautiful.

Music:

Everything. My favorite band is Anti-flag. Saying that, I mostly listen to electronica, as if they mix so well. I favor trance, house, progressive, and happy hardcore. Other than that, I listen to anything from pink floyd to MSI to really really old oldies. So eh, yea.

Movies:

The Shawshank Redemption, Pulp fiction, Fear and loathing in Las Vegas, Donnie Darko, Lock Stock and two Smoking Barrels, Traffic, Girl Interrupted, Trainspotting, 25th hour, Crash, Wedding Crashers, A Scanner Darkly, The Virgin Suicides, Requiem For A Dream, Fight Club, Party Monster,

Television:

I dont watch much tv. Does the news count?

Books:

I'm reading Another Roadside Attraction by Tom Robbins, for the second time. If you want to read a good book, read anything by Tom Robbins... Fierce Invalids Home From Hot Climates. Even Cowgirls Get the Blues. Skinny Legs And All. Wild Duck Flying Backwards. Jitterbug Perfume. Half Asleep in Frog Pajamas. One Flew Over The Cuckoos Nest. Cat's Cradle. Say You Love Satan. Paradoxes From A to Z. The Pig That Wants to be Eaten. Secret Lives: US Presidents. Disco Bloodbath. A Scanner Darkly. Last Night A DJ Saved My Life.

Heroes:

Ron Paul.... and here's why...

Who knew?

So I've realized that no matter how mad I get, I never stay mad. In fact, I find that even the most serious of situations seem to lose importance after awhile. No matter how much I hate somebody, I st...

A few insights...

  It's weird how the people who don't know you very well, appreciate the little things the most, which makes you wonder if they know you better than you thought.  I think if anyone ever...

I hate 2s...

You'd think 2 1/2 months would be enough time to learn to sleep comfortably in a bed by yourself. Or maybe at least wake up and know what state you're in. Maybe not, maybe it takes 3. In fact, 3 seems...

Fuck Off :-)

So I've always thought of myself as a decent human being. I don't know why, but sometimes I get the feeling that I'm the only good person in this world. If I'm not nice, its a huge effort on my part n...

Friendship

So this has been the worst month of my entire life. I've lost two friends and a sister. It's funny how your so called best friends are the first to turn their back on you when your life takes a t...

BBQ anyone?

"Centuries ago, sailors on long voyages used to leave a pair of pigs on every deserted island. Or they'd leave a pair of goats. Either way, on any future visit, the island would be a source of meat. T...
