Forever the asshats

+ Forever the asshats will come and spoil the fun. Really. New York, Bali, Madrid, London. Sure, we haven't been fair to them in the past, but this on going crusade to take the world for Allah or whatever doesn't seem to be appealing to most Westerners. Christ, you extremists, get a television, DirectTv (TiVo even!) into that cave of yours and zombify like the rest of us.

+ People, (family in this instance) when given the choice between standing up and calling you out on something they find disagreeable. Or saying nothing and then it filtering it through a second hand and mutual source (also family). They will always choose the latter. The result of this equation? Anger divided by frustration equals loss of respect.
