This is a bit of navel gazing. Anyone who knows me out here in 3D land knows I'm prone to that particular brand of self - absorbtion. Now, thanks to dKos I have a broader forum in which to be pretentious.
Ain't technology grand?
This evening, once again I am slacking from my workload to ponder a silly, semi-serious subject.
I find myself "cursing" around here, much more than in my normal speech. Why is that?
Is it because dKos has a way of bringing out strong feelings? Do I care that passionately about the various issues? Or is it just some of the Arrogant grad-school types (you know who you are) around here that just bug the shit out of me?
I know, in order to get one's comments or diaries read it's very tempting to use "colorful" language. It does lend a certain "I'm serious mother-fucker" tone to things. I try to avoid "sexist" profanity - but sometimes it's just too tempting. I really think the Dems are perceived as a bunch of pussies. I've said that in comments, some have taken offense, but I just love the sound of it.
Besides, no one seemed annoyed when in the same day two different female Kosmopolitans referred to republican's as dickweeds. In my defense I have never used the "C" word - talk about getting a rise out of people! The only thing likely to piss people off more around here is to mention Israel or Ayn Rand. Hey how 'bout all three!
I wonder what Ayn Rand would think of Israel if she were alive today, silly cunt!
I am deeply sorry, I could not resist. Hey, can you troll rate a diary?
