Sorry, but it's the place you live. You're surrounded by Jesus-freaks, narrow-minded types and gossip-mongers. You need a serious change of location; get the hell out of that podunk heap of a town and get to a civilized city. As long as you keep being you, you're going to give them all something to talk about...and since their lives are pretty sad and shallow they'll be very happy to focus on something else.

Get the fuck out of Dodge. For reals.

Go read this speech that comedian Patton Oswalt recently gave to the graduating seniors at his old high school. I think it applies to your situation.

And I think author David Foster Wallace's brilliant speech to graduating college students also should provide you with some helpful insight.

Who is this?
email your anonyminity to pulsatingmachine@gmail.com

I had an idea but this person wouldn't know who patton oswalt was.

I heard that David Foster Wallace died recently. I listened to an interview of his (if I'm thinking this is the correct person) on NPR that was done back in 1997 and enjoyed it and look into reading some of his writing.

REVEAL yourself!

i read patton oswalt's speech just now. i enjoyed it and it does make sense.

all i can think about is all the experiences that have shaped me over the years. seeing a guy shoot up in the attic of a hippie restaurant during a blizzard in brattleboro, VT to tripping during mardi gras in front of a group of fundamentalist christians and making out with a woman that looked like a bible harlot to see how many choir boys we could give erections to.

HOW DO YOU KNOW WHO HE IS?
you, mystery oracle, who the fuck are you?
