Probably everyone that I hold a friendship with, at some point, will have accused me of being too much of a hard-ass, for want of a better word, at some point. A pedant, an idealist, an argumentative, black-and-white-seeing son of a bitch, but I stand by my convictions ( Read more... )

Freaking namby-pamby, do good-ing left wingers that have no stupid freaking view of the real world. What honestly goes on in their head... "iF We hUG eVerYTHing iT'lL AlL bE oK".
