pride_of_erin* Can somebody please tell me what the html for bullet points is? These asterisks look shitty. And I can't find it in FAQs.
* Hey, I changed my layout again. It's completely uninteresting. I gotta find a good pic for my background.
* So yeah, I had no idea that Dean Winters once guest-starred on Sex and the City. Pretty Sister rented the 2nd season, and when he came on screen we both let out a long, high-pitched squealy gasp - "That's Ryan!" And the weird thing is, I've seen that ep before and had no idea it was him. And now I get the inside joke of him mentioning Sex and the City on Oz.
* Man, there are some freaks on LJ - how up yourself do you have to be to fill your user info with a billion pics of yourself striking Paris Hilton slut poses, including a colour bar of yourself? And trust me, she was nowhere near cute enough to be that much of a camera whore.
* I'm hungry and Irritating Sister is dominating the kitchen, so I can't get food. Grrr.
* I read that some guy in Sweden donated sperm to a lesbian couple, and forfeited all his parenting rights to the resulting children, but now that the couple's broken up, he's the one who has to pay child support. That is fucked up and wrong.
* Bloody hell, I am BORED. I actually want Bitchy Sister to come home from work, because at least then I'll have someone to have an interesting conversation with.
* I stumbled upon this 101 Reasons For Having Children site - it's complete crock of shit. Even ignoring the fact that it was written by hyper-breeding psycho fundies, it's still bullshit, and I know this because I have 9 siblings and am therefore a pretty good judge of the results of mass-breeding. For instance:
Babies teach the older children so much about caring for little ones, being kind, protective, and unselfish.
Uh, no - sorry to burst your bubble Good Christians everywhere, but the only thing you learn from younger siblings is how to smack the hell out of them when they mess with your shit, and to resent them for taking up so much of your mother's time.
My children think I'm beautiful no matter how I look.
You think? I'm perfectly aware of when my mother looks like shit. And I'm ususally more than happy to share that information with her.
The more children we have, the more they entertain one another.
Yeah, that's true. Just change 'entertain' to 'hate'. Or 'resent'. Or 'annoy'. Or 'hit'. Or 'verbally abuse'.
You have your own cheering squad in whatever you do.
No, you have your own personal jury set to condemn you.
The more children we have, the more impact we have upon the world.
Yes, the more resources we use, the more garbage we create, the more welfare money we take off tax-payers, etc.
There is no occupation more rewarding than motherhood.
I'll be sure to tell that to the doctors who save lives, the charity workers who help those in need, and the teachers who prepare the next generation for running the world. I'll also tell that to the mothers who abuse and abandon their children - apparently, they didn't get the memo.
We want our children to have the riches of many relationships with brothers and sisters. When we are no longer living, our children will have each other for encouragement, fellowship and a sense of family.
We will? I'd better tell that to the brother and sister I haven't seen in 3 years, and the sister who never calls 'cause she's too busy with her own kids.
Large families are FUN! And we love having fun.
No! They're NOT! They're really, really not :o)
In a large family, the children and teenagers don't want to go out to find entertainment because they are lonely and bored - there is already fun and entertainment at home.
Are you fucking kidding? Getting away from from bratty younger siblings and stressed-out, shitty parents is the only thing they want to do.
Younger children teach the older children how to be helpers. By the time the are old enough to be married and have children of their own, they'll be prepared for raising them.
Uh, no - older children are expected to be slave labour. And they resent it. And they end up not wanting any kids of their own because of it.
Our children have taught me the value of relationships and the shallowness of the world's value system.
Considering my mother has popped out some of the most shallow people I know, I'm pretty sure this isn't true for her.
Parenthood is not confining, but enlarging.
Tell this to my mother, who I haven't seen in four days and the last thing she screamed at me was, "I'm not just a mother! I'm a person too!" Whatever - I'm not the one who held a gun to your head and told you to install a revolving door on your uterus.
Babies are future dish washers!
And again with the slave labour.
Babies are a lot more entertaining than TV.
Then why would I rather watch TV than my nephew?
The more children we have, the more we will be blessed when we are older. Instead of being lonely, we will have many children and grandchildren around to entertain us, bless us and care for us.
No we won't. We'll expect you look after our kids for us so we don't have to pay a baby-sitter, and then when you get too old for that we'll throw you in a home. Just like you did with your parents.
This quizz is very true

You're Colombia!
You do a lot of drugs, and these have kind of distorted your view of
reality, to the point that everyone looks like an enemy. You keep trying to restore
order over your schizophrenic world view, but you don't even know which goal is your own
and which is someone else's. You're pretty sure someone needs to be punished for all
this, but who that is changes all the time. Things would be a lot better for you if
you switched to coffee, or even to decaf, but all this money would be hard to give up.

Date: 2006-01-05 05:38 pm (UTC)Wanna hold hands with me on this one, Erin? We can go be "Avoidant" together!...
The nice (or should I say "sane") thing is that you've got a pretty cool personality disorder graphic score, so to speak: moderate borderline, low antisocial. The funny part is how you've managed to score high on histrionic/narcissistic (they're kind of go together anyway) and also on avoidant! That's one hell of a mix, if you ask me.
The coolest part is you got to be Colombia. I was India. Nothing that interesting about the biggest democracy in the world compared to Coca Country, yeah!

Date: 2006-01-06 12:11 am (UTC)Being avoidant together? Doesn't that kind of defeat the purpose? LOL.
And what's even better than not being able to talk to strangers, is not being able to ask them questions about something you need to know, because you don't want to sound stupid. Then later, when you have no idea what to do, you kick yourself for it and look even more stupid. Yay!
Take my hand - let's go skipping togehter! *giggle*
And yeah, I love how I'm narcissistic and ashamed of myself at the same time. Maybe, I should be glad I'm fat and ugly - if I was thin and pretty, I'd probably be the shallowest, most conceited bitch on the planet.
