Well, I'm not really telling you anything. I'm just trying to understand why you're so afraid. Keep in mind, my dad was a Holocaust survivor. I grew up taking all things political and cultural very seriously, but I don't find myself living in extreme fear. Maybe I'm built to handle the worst.

I don't know. You've gone from arson to something that requires only a band-aid. Optimism seems to be your new purple.

Can you say what you're saying without using any analogies?

Look at how much more effort you put into trying to define them than you put into describing your side. Shouldn't it be the opposite? Or are you just trying to prove your first point?

The store I bought it from had it on a high shelf. I do admit I was afraid to stand directly underneath it.

I like to use Comix 2000.
