perfidy

He must also be disgusted by other revolutionary hippies like Jefferson and Washington. And English judges who don those crazy hippy wigs.

Jebus, how can men be so obssessed with other men's hair? I mean, non-gay men?

Now that is funny. Hey, howabout all those hippie freak kings stomping ass all over Europe and the middle east over the past buncha millenia. Pansies. And the Vikings? I guess they were girlyboys, too.

On a serious note, should I ever attempt the Great American Novella, I will surely plagiarize one of the chapter subheads for my opening line:

Absalom was both rebellious and long haired.

Beats the fuck out of "Call me Ishmael."

GP, you almost made me fall out of my chair. It does indeed.

B:

I read Hyles' screed, and I'm now done reading for the night, for a simple reason: I want to be able to honestly say that was the stupidest waste of typing I've seen all day.

I seldom yield to biblical verse as an argument-ender, but jeebus! If he's gonna quote scripture to make a point, it'd be sweet if, somewhere short of a drunken stupor, I could make a connection between the quote and his point.

Oh, wait - is this guy from the Landover Baptist Church?

Hyles didn't have the slick website design of the Landover Baptist Church. Which leads me to believe that it's real. There seems to be a correlation between battiness and total lack of aesthetic sense. Almost as if the purity of their convictions forbids them from prettying up their message. "This is the truth, damnit, and it doesn't need sissified window dressing." Sincerity is deemed sufficient. Thank god the Catholics never thought that way, or we would be minus myriad masterworks of painting, sculpture and architecture.
