Just one quick bitch ...

[Trigger 11]

Ignorant people who don't know the difference between vaccines and antiviral drugs.

I am beginning to think most people are ignorant

All people are.  Nobody's omniscient.

Indeed! We had a blast deciphering this in a dorm room with some stoned future doctors. One of my favorite songs and lyrics:

"Ana Ng" by They Might Be Giants

Make a hole with a gun perpendicular
To the name of this town in a desktop globe
Exit wound in a foreign nation
Showing the home of the one this was written for

My apartment looks upside down from there
Water spirals the wrong way out the sink
And her voice is a backwards record
It's like a whirlpool, and it never ends

(Ann)
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow
Of each other's majestic presence
(Listen Ann)
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say
If there was a me for you

All alone at the '64 World's Fair
Eighty dolls yelling "Small girl after all"
Who was at the DuPont Pavilion?
Why was the bench still warm? Who had been there?

Or the time when the storm tangled up the wire
To the horn on the pole at the bus depot
And in back of the edge of hearing
These are the words that the voice was repeating:

(Ann)
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow
Of each other's majestic presence
(Listen Ann)
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say
If there was a me for you

When I was driving once I saw this painted on a bridge:
"I don't want the world, I just want your half"

They don't need me here and I know you're there
Where the world goes by like the humid air
And it sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks like a broken record
Everything sticks until it goes away
And the truth is we don't know anything

(Ann)
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow
Of each other's majestic presence
(Listen Ann)
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say
If there was a me for you

(Ann)
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow
Of each other's majestic presence
(Listen Ann)
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say
If there was a me for you

(Ann)
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow
Of each other's majestic presence
(Listen Ann)
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say
If there was a me for you

(Ann)
Ana Ng and I are getting old
And we still haven't walked in the glow
Of each other's majestic presence
(Listen Ann)
Listen Ana hear my words
They're the ones you would think I would say
If there was a me for you

I just pawned myself by not getting social humour.

Asked for a day of a few weeks ago. The answer was I could ask, as long as it was not for april 30 or may 1, because everyone wanted those days of. April 30 is a national holiday here. The answer made that I took it that I had to work on april 30.

So I told my kids I could not be doing fun things with them.

Waited today to get my stuff delivered, so I could start working.
At 1 pm it still was not there, that's the latest they are allowed to bring it.

And it dawned on me, my chef had made a joke about april 30.

Probably thinking I would know that, or take it for granted.

Well I didn't.

It sucks not to get social jokes like that.

Spend some time with the kids after that. But there was no chance anymore to go to a fleamarket or something like that with them. They start in the mornings. And they had been quite sad when they heard I had to work this day. 

They took it lightly when I told them after 1 pm that apparently I had the day off. They do understand that I do not understand jokes like that. They are not good at them either. I've got great kids.

Well, that was no national holiday today.

I did not watch tv or anything. Just made something of the day with my kids in the garden.

But some jerk thought it was a good idea to race his car into the crowds where the queen was today.

Got 5 people killed.

End of all partying.

Since partying here in this village is minimal, I did not notice. Everyone would be somewhere else, in bigger places, celebrating. And this place is as quiet as can be, always is on Queensday afternoons. But it seems to be as quiet as this everywhere.

Flags brought in or hanging half.

Day of national mourning.

You must ban cars. See how dangerous they are.

[TheoK]

It's the King's birthday here today, by the way, and it's Valborgsmässoafton. It's not a red day in the calendar, but people celebrate the "eve of spring" by lightning fires and students are singing in the cities. Tomorrow is May 1th. That's a red day in the Swedish calendar since over 100 years.

And no way a gun could have stopped it.

No, not in this case.

The man used his car as a high velocity weapon. Full speed racing through the crowds, to bypass security I guess. Thus getting access to a secluded piece of road where a kind of parade was going on. All casualties are audience, that he overran full speed from the back.

No car could have stopped him, unless killing even more of the audience.

What a fucking dickhead! People trying to enjoy themselves and get attacked by a Psycho POS. Hang the mf  .

Kind of not happy with iTunes. Still haven't let me know one way or the other if I can get some of my downloads back. Amazon.com gave me access to all of my downloads dating back to 10 January 2009. I only re-downloaded the actual tracks that went missing. In some cases, I am only missing the digital booklets or magazines from iTunes. Worst part is that Depeche Mode, Pet Shop Boys, and Morrissey were being downloaded when the crash occurred. I lost almost everything from Depeche Mode and Pet Shop Boys, a well as four tracks from Morrissey. I should at least get these downloads reset. For fuck's sake, I never had the chance to save them or sync them to my iPod. I purchased the iTunes Pass for Depeche Mode, so I could get access to all of the remixes and whatnot, since I would seek them out anyway. Thing expired today PST. In other words, about 90 minutes from now!

Here is iTunes bullshit response to each and every one of my requests to gain access to the songs/albums I lost while downloading last week:

Dear Darryl,

Your request for a refund for "Insert Song Title or Album Name" was carefully considered; however, according to the iTunes Store Terms of Sale, all purchases made on the iTunes Store are ineligible for refund. This policy matches Apple's refund policies and provides protection for copyrighted materials.

You can review the iTunes Store Terms of Sale for more information:

I don't want a fucking refund. I want access to the songs and albums I paid to have access rights to. Barring iTunes having exclusive, must-have content, I am done with them.

I'll be damned! Someone higher up gave me the Wil Wheaton treatment and reallocated my entire library. The problem is, it was over 300 items and it is taking forever to download. I only needed two full albums, a partial album, some digital booklets, one episode of Star Wars : The Clone Wars, and 20-30 random songs, which I actually have been able to find already. I also found the missing episode of Star Wars : The Clone Wars. So all I really needed was the three albums that I was downloading that night.

Pre-rant:

I ended up replacing the front disc brakes and windshield wipers on my car in preparation of getting it inspected in the morning. Font and rear brakes are good, windshield wipers are good, tires have less than 5k miles on them, no cracks in windshield, no fuel leaks, and so on. I bet those bastardos try to come up with something to not pass my car and try to get me to pay them to fix it. I then always tell them to fail the car and I will do it myself and make you reinspect it for a couple of bucks the next day. Mechanics can be so corrupt.

Oh...and to the Celtics for blowing a third game in their series with the Bulls. They could've won all six games by now, but will have to go to a game seven Saturday. There goes my Saturday. I think the Bruins are already playing Saturday against the Hartford Whalers...I mean Carolina Hurricanes. Damn it al to hell! The Celtics better fucking win!!!!!!!!!

You see: with better access to guns, he could have gotten a rifle and shot directly at the royal family, who probably were his presumpted victims. Now a lot of innocent bystanders were killed for nothing. No innocent bystander was ever shot when someone murdered or trying to murder US presidents.

It's BRAVE to kill, especially if you kill mainstream politicians, cops, judges, high officials etc.
