I investigated Shinto last night. What an interesting "religion". They have no actual sets of faith, or absolute rules (other than just a few key principles). You can be a shintoist without actually belieiving or practicing. All it is is that Shintoists believe that everything has a spiritual essence, and in death, can become a god, or kami.

"THE FIRST CASUALTY OF BREAKFAST WAR IS INNOCENCE!"
-Frietag

That is the funniest fucking thing I've heard in weeks.

After that, I went to Hannaford, which was also a disaster, and bought $50 worth of ingredients for the five apple pies Alli and I spent the rest of the day making for all of the families we'll be encountering this Christmas ( Read more... )

I continue to see V For Vendetta as an amazing film. All of you supposed rebels, always keep this one thing in mind; you can dress strangely, say bizarre things, and enjoy unconventional art, but if what you do does not disrupt business as usual, it means nothing. Basically, if you yell "Down with the government!", you'd better not have a job, or ( Read more... )

Damn. I overthink social shit way to much. I think I may be at a point in my life where that is just not something I can dramatically change. I wish I could level with people more, though. I really do ( Read more... )
