Some people almost make you wish there was a hell so they could go there. I say "almost" because only a total psychopath would seriously enjoy the thought of human beings burning alive for eternity, right? Right!?

Ugh. At Stan's house a few nights ago Liza and Alex and I were goaded into watching 2 girls 1 cup (well, the first ten seconds of it, anyway) and that was less disturbing. *shudders*

If there's a God, and He hates, He hates people like these. If there's a Hell, it's made for people like these. Except they're already living in Hell.

I've run into the Phelpses more times than I can count and infinitely more than I care to recount -- once last month, even. It's amusing to me how they either (a) think their invisible friend despises all these people for such idiotic rationale or (b) just say anything to get attention. Either way reeks of a profound intellectual or spiritual starvation that almost evokes pity. Almost.

(And no, I'm not saying God doesn't exist; I try not to revel in mockery of one's religion, even when it's not necessarily my own. Their god -- an omnipotent, omniscient entity that is so petty and spiteful yet as indirect as a theatre grad student on LSD -- is a comical little construct worth all the derision and spite one can muster. Funny how small their god is when it's borne in such a shallow mind and vacant imagination.)

And yes, Two Girls One Cup is...unfortunately picturesque, but doesn't approach the levels of obscenity and atrocity the Phelpses do. I know which I'd rather kids were allowed to see. (By the way, your "diediedie" text, for the delete link? Adorable.)

Not that their concept of God is illogical - from their perspective. After all, they're constantly told that they're created in His image. So it makes perfect sense for them to imagine a God with all their petty cruelties and the power they don't have. Divine projection, if you will.

From their perspective...oh, three very frightening little words. I'm not intentionally twisting my mind in any approximation of their wretched little cerebral knots. I do have faith in their ability to justify any screwed-up worldview to themselves, their "family," and the handful of non-genetically-entwined "followers" they have.

If they were created in God's image, though, I'm sure in a moment of omniscient introspection He killed Himself soon after.

(I usually don't -- but can -- see God as being that petty. I can't imagine Him being that inefficient.)

Wow... While I admittedly find that quite disturbing, rather than being angry or anything I'm just morbidly fascinated.

The child at the end is the worst part. ughh. How can people live with that much hate?

To be honest I haven't actually looked at the link you posted, but I can't post after the poem you wrote about us so I'll say it here: *glomps* teehee, that was so awesome, thank you! I'd ask if you'd had a good christmas but it hardly seems to be a useful question so instead, how have the holidays been treating you since we last saw each other? *hugs again*

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Quite lazilly :) you?

[cynicky.livejournal.com]

yeah, more or less, I have a feeling that I should actually do something at times, but I usually beat that into submission

My dad refuses to reconnect the net to my computer until I clean up my room.

And my mum doesn't want me to go online at all except to "research uni options" some more. I'm not sure why.

[cynicky.livejournal.com]

you know all your problems would be solved if you just learnt how to reconnect the internet yourself. Heh, my room is undoubtedly a bigger dump than yours, when I was at your place after the formal it really wasn't that bad, I can't see why your parents get so worked up about it srsly, you're 18, my mum wants me to tidy it up but it's not of great concern to her. Y'know you could really fan the flames by telling your mum you'll tidy your room when she tidies the rest *evil laugh* >:D

Lulz, so have you turned up any decent uni options yet? I say you should rebel, just refuse to look up other options until you get your intarwebs back.

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Oh I know how to, i just can't. We have to buy a modem router. And then we have to figure out what the hell is wrong with my computer :P

My mum would reply "I clean the rest all the time! All I do is clean, clean, clean! Blah blha ungrateful blah!"

I, yeah, pretty much just arts. Not that there's anything wrong with that, an English major is perfectly acceptable in my book. I just have to figure out whether the QUT option is better to a great enough degree to make it worth moving to fucking queensland for.

[cynicky.livejournal.com]

well you'll have to make your mind up soon, there are only a few days left to change your preferences, you do know that, don't you?

[maggiebloome.livejournal.com]

Not really man, interstate is on a different form. I have to make up my mind between NSW unis, that's all. Queensland stays separate.

[lackofmendacity.livejournal.com]

I am speechless.

...

No, that's such a lie, I'm just terribly upset. :/

*feels like wielding a spork*
