Insult to Injury

Thanks, mum. Way to help my depression.

Childhood Fear Confession

Ever since childhood, I've had an rather strange love-hate relationship with robots.
When I was little there was this HUGE or so it seemed at the time robot that was the mascot of the city recycling program. It creeped me out and naturally I cried, screamed and did every childish thing to get the fuck out of there.
These days...
WALL-E is a little cutie pie. I can't imagine anyone not loving him
I'm a fan of NBC's 2008 version of "Knight Rider": KITT (aka the awesomely...awesome transforming Mustang) rocks my world. Frankly, I want KITT. Or even one of the crazy little yellow helper-bots (Lisa, Katie and Hank)
KARR (KITT's predecessor) however...



...Scares the shit out of me.


So I guess you never leave your seemingly irrational childhood fears behind.

Hang your head in shame, world!

I saw this posted on Cute With Chris. It really hit home. Probably my biggest dislike about modern politics is the way no one seems to make an effort to understand or be tolerant of differences. In policy, obviously, differences are embraced; in reality...not so much.
I am reminded of a song...
What's so funny 'bout peace, love and understanding?

Seriously. If a dog and an elephant can do, why not people too?
