Hello, and good whatever time it is over there. I don't really have much to say, however I still feel that I have some sort of obligation to write something, seeing as I haven't for a while. So, let us see what I can waste time with. Ah... Here's a thought: anything you can possibly do will offend someone. I'm serious. If you say that everyone deserves basic rights, it will offend someone. If you say murder is wrong, it will offend someone. I generally try to keep my offending within reason, but that's another problem: everyone has there own opinion of what is reasonable. Which pisses me off, seeing as we have (here, at least) many rules in places and even laws which make reference to that which is reasonable. For example, Minnesota's basic speed law: you may drive no faster than is reasonable for existing conditions. Then again, if this site is to be trusted, then we technically also prohibit oral sex, bathtubs without feet, and nude sleeping. But at any rate, the basic speed law makes no clear distinction as to what is being made illegal. Well, I guess this is what happens when you have the most popular, rather than qualified, write laws (but then, they're so much easier to find...). I guess it's also since I live in the Bible Belt's matching earring. Well, I guess I'll leave you with that thought. Fare thee well.
