I haven't worked on my novels in forever. Avvie hasn't spoken to me in forever-- I'm assuming it's because I was too stupid last time-- and I've failed two things in the meantime. My life is going wonderfully, I assure you.
Things have to get better from here on.. and I hope I'll have an extra dose of luck on the weekend. Knoxville, here I come!
Yesterday:
Why do guys have to be so childish?
Why?
And why does the school board have to be so stupid as to show a documentary on animal sex in BIOLOGY? I've had health already, thank you, I know about the whole reproduction thing, and I've had quite enough of it to last (read: scar) me for the rest of my life.
It didn't help that the narrator had to say sex instead of reproduction every other word. I mean, I appreciate drilling the concept in as much as you can so that the audience will stop giggling. But honestly, every other word? Particularly in an audience where about half the members are teenage boys, who are inevitably revolting, and whose minds resemble sewers?
Stupidity isn't quite sufficient to address the people who wrote that documentary. I want to throttle their scripter. And the guy who came up with its title: The Triumph of Life. How about The Triumph of Red Pigmentation In The Cheeks Of Whoever Watches This Documentary In a Co-Ed Class?
Nick-whatever made a nicely satirical comment in ECA that I have to record in here for future notice:
Mr. Roberts: A stock share is something that you pay the company loads of money for, so that you are able to vote in its major decisions.
Nick: (laughs) Sounds just like America.
Of course, this is also the guy who thinks that he looks "damned sexy" in a suit. So maybe I'll just erase his name in the future..
