WHY DID GOD MAKE MEN BEFORE WOMEN?&lt;br /&gt;          (you need a rough draft before you make a final copy)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.

&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;she might become a victim of other perverts or become a pervert herself (like her mom and dad) - as much as i abhor the social order, during these situations, when i get to hear this kind of sick shit has happened to somebody, i get to think about the women who are close (and will become close) to me...and i, for  a moment, close my eyes and breathe a sigh of thanks that this kind of bestial act has not happened to them and i draw a deeper breath and hopefully mutters that this will never, ever happen to them - or to anyone, woman or man..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this kind of act actually brings you back to the practicability that  the social norms offer - it gives you a kind of stability, a kind of order...you get to ask that, amidst the social norms, why does such act still exist...and you get to imagine what if there were no social norms and such an act  (along with other equally heinous acts) are normally accepted in society?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, maybe we would squirm and find it disgusting...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but then again, this is what social norms did - it made some acts heinous and unacceptable...so we were all conditioned to think that such acts are also heinous and acceptable...but if we were brought up with an idea that everything is normal, then it wouldn't be too bad i think...&lt;br /&gt;but still, we are living in this normalized society so anybody who was kind enough to finish this article would still think - man, no matter how you philosophize or psychologize  it, it's still fucking disgusting...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;damn, fuck social norms...and fuck that asshole!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6559609531132783911-3600912626828689564?l=incomatose.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://incomatose.blogspot.com/feeds/3600912626828689564/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6559609531132783911&amp;postID=3600912626828689564' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6559609531132783911/posts/default/3600912626828689564'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6559609531132783911/posts/default/3600912626828689564'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://incomatose.blogspot.com/2008/04/double-edged-social-norms.html' title='the double edged social norms'/><author><name>blacklips_whitefly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06252664009369612050</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R-DTGLtSzpI/AAAAAAAAAIU/MW40KVTYdvQ/S220/pregnant+2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559609531132783911.post-4508209940699546921</id><published>2008-04-28T01:27:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-29T02:33:26.152-07:00</updated><title type='text'>she's 23, she's pretty and she's a man....</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;object width="300" height="80"&gt;&lt;param name="movie" value="http://media.imeem.com/m/VIrF7g-Kmf/aus=false/"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;param name="wmode" value="transparent"&gt;&lt;/param&gt;&lt;embed src="http://media.imeem.com/m/VIrF7g-Kmf/aus=false/" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="300" height="110" wmode="transparent"&gt;&lt;/embed&gt;&lt;/object&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of the most difficult things to bear while growing up is being constantly reminded that your parents did not have a lot time to think about precision while they were making you - i mean, they could have at least tried to make you nose a little bit tinier or your lips fuller or your skin whiter...but no...they can't do it and even if they could, they wouldn't have time to think about such things while being caught in the realm of ecstasy or problematizing how to get there...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay moving on, we tried to forgive our parents and constantly reminded ourselves with the cliche, beauty is skin deep (shyt!) - even if we really did not and still do not believe such thing...we tried to do good in other stuffs and contented ourselves with what we have and of course tried to look at the mirror the least possible times - only when somebody comments how nice (only nice, never beautiful or pretty!) your hair looks like, or that your lips are red and so on and so forth...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, you sometimes forget about that already and you get to love a normal life -

i didn't go to the church ceremony anymore) and ended up discussing a classmates' finale of her disastrous marriage - an annulment - more of an impending finale really because she hasn't gone through the whole process yet...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but as we have gone on our separate ways, i at the back of a taxi with my tummy due in two months, and my classmates in their respective houses or taxis (those who had gone home the same time that i did), as anybody would do on that occasion, i could not help myself from falling asleep. it was already 3 am and i had a long day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that night, we talked about everything we could think of - especially how the theories we learned in college, theories that we were so definite of, have become less and less probable and more complicated.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;we imagine how we used feminism, post-structuralism, structuralism, marxism, and all the other isms to explain almost everything that we believe in. oh, that night, i could again the fiery and intoxicating blissfulness of idealism. our ideas were so raw, so innocent and hopelessly, for my case, stupid.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the lives that we lived then were so different from what we have now - of course, we are not students anymore. but aside from that, new ties were made, new fuck bodies are being continuously discovered, new lives were given to, allegiance to different theories have changed, new norms that have been broken and followed and all of the thinkable and unthinkable that could ever happen to us.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br /&gt;oh, i wish i could write what has happened to our lives - each of our lives - for me to trace the change and see how much of these changes have done us good or bad. but i couldn't. i have secluded myself from that i hardly know what they were like in college and i do not have any idea how they are living their lives now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but still i kept on nodding every time they talk about the changes that we have all undergone. i kept on muttering weird. i can't count anymore how many times i had said the word weird that night - seeing one of our classmates getting married and entering the homicidal word of the domesticated life, hearing one of our classmates recounting every painful detail of her bitter marriage, seeing myself having a baby months from now and worrying about the expenses, finally getting the confirmation straight from a classmate who has finally come out of the closet....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;weird because at the end of it all, when i look back, i really do not know who they are and who they were. and if i think of being nostalgic, to explain that what i felt that night and while i am writing this entry. but nostalgia is rooted from something that you have been acquainted to or you have experienced sometime in the past - and what i have now and that night was just the present...so there is nothing to be nostalgic about...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6559609531132783911-2349066636905040306?l=incomatose.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://incomatose.blogspot.com/feeds/2349066636905040306/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6559609531132783911&amp;postID=2349066636905040306' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6559609531132783911/posts/default/2349066636905040306'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6559609531132783911/posts/default/2349066636905040306'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://incomatose.blogspot.com/2008/04/while-we-were-already-enjoying-more.html' title='a nostalgic experience which is quite not'/><author><name>blacklips_whitefly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06252664009369612050</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R-DTGLtSzpI/AAAAAAAAAIU/MW40KVTYdvQ/S220/pregnant+2.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559609531132783911.post-6229013922927284211</id><published>2008-04-22T22:05:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-28T02:17:28.028-07:00</updated><title type='text'>h.l mencken</title><content type='html'>&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/SA7EVwjwMyI/AAAAAAAAAPg/egeBjQhPpSc/s1600-h/H_l_mencken.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/SA7EVwjwMyI/AAAAAAAAAPg/egeBjQhPpSc/s200/H_l_mencken.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192303298495918882" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;HE LOOKS LIKE PAULO CONTIS hehehehehe!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(153, 153, 255);font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;" class="body"&gt;It is inaccurate to say that I hate everything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am strongly in favor of common sense, common honesty, and common decency.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This makes me forever ineligible for public office.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"&gt;you are going to love and hate this guy...remember that guy you once had the (un)fateful chance of getting acquainted with?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you know, that witty guy who made you laugh and at the same time grunt?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that guy who is never pleased by anything except for his cynicism?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, he's that guy...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;too bad he's dead -

I think I hold the banner of those who have been trampled upon by the bias concept of this genitalia-ruled society. Yet, I have been a hypocrite. I have become my own monster - my disappointment mirrors my views of my own sex. I am not worthy to be called a woman. For even as I bear you now and celebrate womanhood in its peak, I have shunned the idea that we, in your future life, are the same.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;font-size:130%;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;my sister had already given birth to a baby boy... so have a close friend of mine...also my officemate...all of them have baby boys now...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so, when my boyfriend and i went to have an ultrasound of our baby, both of us were also hoping to have our own son...so when the doctor announced that it was a girl both of us were pretty shaken...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i realized, as much as woman-oriented as i am, i was also actually hoping for a boy. i was thinking (half consciously and half-unconsciously) that raising a boy would be easier and boys have easier lives than girls...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i know i know i know...it's a slap to my feminist nature...but what can i do...it is the parental instinct that is already talking here...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, anyway, here it is...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i can hardly make out what the picture looks like but hell, a pic is a pic is a pic - well, for this case, an ultrasound is an ultrasound is an ultrasound...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;welcome baby...i am not disappointed that you are a girl...i'm just scared...for you and for me...i may not become the best model for you...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/SA7ehQjwMzI/AAAAAAAAAPo/ppz4Dm1hqdo/s1600-h/ultrasound+result+%282%29.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/SA7ehQjwMzI/AAAAAAAAAPo/ppz4Dm1hqdo/s200/ultrasound+result+%282%29.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192332083366736690" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6559609531132783911-7606310297059627194?l=incomatose.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://incomatose.blogspot.com/feeds/7606310297059627194/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=6559609531132783911&amp;postID=7606310297059627194' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6559609531132783911/posts/default/7606310297059627194'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/6559609531132783911/posts/default/7606310297059627194'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://incomatose.blogspot.com/2008/04/glimpse-of-riuu.html' title='a glimpse of riuu'/><author><name>blacklips_whitefly</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/06252664009369612050</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://bp0.blogger.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R-DTGLtSzpI/AAAAAAAAAIU/MW40KVTYdvQ/S220/pregnant+2.jpg'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/SA7ehQjwMzI/AAAAAAAAAPo/ppz4Dm1hqdo/s72-c/ultrasound+result+%282%29.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6559609531132783911.post-3428467181979263491</id><published>2008-04-09T23:54:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-04-10T03:04:23.106-07:00</updated><title type='text'>unbelievable?

This also covers questions like "Do I look fat.." and anything beginning with, "Why do you always". &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;B&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Bitch. Nothing else needs be said.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Cunt. See Bitch.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;D&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Douche Bag. Hanging one in your bathroom is the female equivalent of pissing to mark territory. Take it, fill it with Gin and hang it by your TV chair. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;E&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Estrogen. It does not mix well with testosterone. It has a tendency to dilute it and then complain when it's done its job. Another paper is being devoted to this particular topic. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;F&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Fucking. Forbidden Use of Carnal Knowledge. You can Fuck, be Fucked, get Fucked and Fuck up. Something can be Fucking great or Fucking miserable. Example: She was a great Fuck! It was Fucking wonderful till I Fucked it up by getting Fucking married. Boy, was I Fucked then. F also stands for foreplay. Get in a 69 position and let her suck on your dick. This gives you an opportunity to examine her vagina and amuse yourself or see if you need an excuse to nibble on her fingers. See Vagina &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;G&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Gynecologist. Sure he can stick anything up there he wants, but let you pull out the candles, ice cubes and anal beads and all hell breaks loose. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;H&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Hell. What she turned your life into and what broke loose when you pulled out the candles, ice cubes and anal beads.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;I&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Indigo Girls. These dykes are responsible for women thinking their clitorises are actually dicks and that ovaries are a legitimate substitute for balls. Right. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;J&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Jewelry. Sort of like tokens to pass through the tunnel.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;K&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Kiss. An intoxicating transfer of pheromones designed to weaken your defenses and cause you to enter into a condition called "Being in Love". &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;L&lt;/span&gt; is for Love. Love is that strange phenomena that causes a man think that one piece of tail is somehow better than all the rest. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;M&lt;/span&gt; is for Marriage. An institution where everything you ever had, have now and ever will have becomes hers.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;N&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Nookie. Sure, it's the preferred choice, but really now, won't just about anything do in a pinch?   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;O&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Ovaries. Producers of estrogen. The cause of all your grief, but take em away and she grows a finer beard than you.   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;P&lt;/span&gt; is for Period. Never trust anything that bleeds for a week and doesn't die!   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Q&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Quicky. Women love these especially during halftime shows, while they are putting on their make up, in elevators, while making dinner and changing babies. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;R&lt;/span&gt; is for Rules. Women somehow seem to think that they make them. LOL   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;S&lt;/span&gt; is for Sex. Remember that? It's what you had before you got married or "involved in a relationship".   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;T&lt;/span&gt; is for Tits. Size doesn't matter. Shape does. Remember, that firm pair of A's with the nipples like pencil erasers are still going to look fine 20 years down the road. Those double DD's are going to be hanging lower that the waistband of her pink, spandex toreador pants. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;U &lt;/span&gt;is for Underwear. See "The Panty Theory"; the first appearance of a girdle in the house marks the beginning of a long road downhill. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;V&lt;/span&gt; is for Vagina. "Nothing can be finer than to be in a vagina in the morning.." Every girl's got one. The criterion for judging the beauty of the female genitalia is rather low. A small, high placed clitoris has less inner labia and thus, isn't as nasty looking and has less area for bacteria and potential yeast infection. The down side is that it doesn't get much stimulation during inter course so she may attempt to use her finger on it. If she has a nail on that finger, chew it off during *foreplay. A big clit has lots of extra skin and is fun to pull and make "funny faces" with. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;W&lt;/span&gt; is for "Which?". "Which dress should I wear?", "Which shoes make me look fat?". You remember, those phrases that made you dump the bitch in the first place. &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;font-size:130%;" &gt;X&lt;/span&gt; is for X-Rated. None of the girls you normally meet will ever do any of the things you see in these movies. Live with it. However, they are available to rent for about $100 per hour. Before you disregard the option, take this simple test. Add up all the costs of being in a relationship. Put a $$$ amount on it. Cabs, dinner, movies, flowers, gifts, etc. Don't forget to charge for your own valuable time not getting laid or spent listening to stories about her relatives and every detail about the latest trip to the shoe store. This will produce a "Cost of Relationship" figure. Average out the quality of your sex life and give it a number value from 1 to 10 with 1 being sex with a corpse and 10 being the best fuck of your life. Add a 0 (zero) to the right of the number and a $ to the left. Multiply that by the number of times you got laid. This will give you a "Cost of Sex" figure. Subtract that figure (yes it will be lower) from the "Cost of Relationship" figure. Do the math. This final figure is what you could be using to have the best sex of your life, every time minus of course, the "Cost of Condoms" adjustment, should you decide to add the totals together and invest in a 'Hooker Fund". &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Y&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Y, as in "Eat at the Y".   &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;Z&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is for Zoo. A place where animals, meant to run free, are caged and denied their natural right to eat what they want, shit where they want, go where they want and fuck when and who they want.

It was one of the mortal sins in that course.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:12;" &gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: right; font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(51, 0, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic; font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 0, 51);font-size:85%;" &gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;Will i alone be left to tell the story of our past -&lt;br /&gt;destined to be numbered with old tales of painful loves?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-family: trebuchet ms; color: rgb(51, 0, 51);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:85%;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt; font-family: trebuchet ms;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style=";font-size:12;" &gt;she chose a Japanese poem.

tried to put some sense into him..&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;ME: &lt;/span&gt;"Excuse me, Teacher @#*&amp;amp;#$, what were you thinking when you chose that picture as your desktop background?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;THE #$#@: &lt;/span&gt;"Oh, you mean the fairy?"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;NOTE: if you were so innocent then why do you already know i was talking about that god damned fairy?!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;ME:&lt;/span&gt;Yes&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;THE &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#$#@:&lt;/span&gt; It was for a friend. i downloaded it for him.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ANOTHER NOTE: Do you need to post it as a desktop background after downloading it if you just intended to give it to a friend?!!!! What were you doing? Trying it out to see if it looks fucking good?!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;THE &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#$#@: &lt;/span&gt;Yeah, yeah I should change it.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To add insult to injury, he called me and asked...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;T&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;HE &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;#$#@:&lt;/span&gt; Was this the picture that you saw, heek, heek (snicker)?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(by that time he already changed the picture into this green, stupid-looking dinosaur)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i do not know what he was thinking about the situation and what he took me for but he should be thankful for the language barrier...&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/6559609531132783911-235550275107908791?l=incomatose.blogspot.com'

(so much for logical reasoning! bwahahahahaha!)&lt;the&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, they think the ending doesn't justify the hardships and struggles of the characters...that the character was not supposed to do what he did in the ending... ( i am no spoiler )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;i think most of these people missed the idea between movies and our INTELLIGENCE to decipher what a certain movie really means...&lt;/the&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;the&gt;&lt;/the&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R_SXMcKISLI/AAAAAAAAAKQ/gNdsvJXktk4/s1600-h/the+mist+3.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R_SXMcKISLI/AAAAAAAAAKQ/gNdsvJXktk4/s200/the+mist+3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184935310983186610" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;the&gt;not because it was a stephen king piece, it doesn't mean that it has to be just all about suspense...the movie is beyond that..if you insist that it isn't, then you just might as well shut up... there is no sense wasting time listening to (or reading) other people's ideas if in the first place those ideas were made by people whose means of understanding do not go beyond the superficial packaging of a story, may it be in written or movie form...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the story, if you haven't noticed, is not all about the mist and the monsters it brought...though they brought upon the happenings in the story, the movie did not really talk about the what's, the why's and the how's of the mist...it was all about what the mist did to the people...this, in turn, makes the movie a movie talking about HUMANS and the "HUMANESS" of these creatures, how the people reacted to the mist and what it brought...how these characters reacted to a certain stimuli differently...the ending is the most probable thing that could happen if any man, i mean any and that includes you, is faced with that kind of situation...and that includes all of the things that happened in the film…even the religious fiasco…the movie doesn't talk about your fictional characters who survived zombie or mutated creature attacks…the movie was all about HUMANS, real people reacting to a certain situation…&lt;/the&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R_SXMcKISMI/AAAAAAAAAKY/rQIph9OPIs4/s1600-h/images.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_wJdyhBU6Ovs/R_SXMcKISMI/AAAAAAAAAKY/rQIph9OPIs4/s200/images.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5184935310983186626" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;well, that’s it.
