I am going to pitch my voice into the "hell yes" chorus you've got going in your comments here.

I can't help but feel resentment towards certain people who I otherwise admire for privileges like having no debt to student loans due to (what I would consider) rich fucking parents who pay their bills. If I find this out about a musician whose music I have connected to in the past, it almost spoils it for me because their rebellion seems trite -- like a teenager yelling at their parents for telling them to do the dishes. It is a visceral and involuntary response that I have to think them less of an artist due to their class; a prejudice.

Let's move to Sweden. YEAH SOCIALISM! Sigh.

I hope I don't sound like a moron blathering on in your blog. Eh, whatever.

I am glad to hear you've had a great birthday. You deserve it.

Been seeing this on my twitter for the past few days, and it has made me so annoyed. You've summed up my problems with it exactly.
