You are a weenie-boy.  You are obviously uptight about getting old but that’s leave that out of it.  You are a turd-boy because you don’t know what you are talking about.  You are a dealer in second hand thoughts.  Your opinions consist of little bits of shit mixed in with your particular pathologies which lean towards pooch-boy and sort of overall leftwingness.  It’s really fucking disgusting.  And do you know what else?  It’s boring.  You’re the same kind of schwang as Michael Moore who in F911 created a movie not about George Bush but about himself and you do the same thing with your writing.  You are a socialist with a B.A. and a hatred for all things good.  You know nothing of music and you are incapable of originality.  If you lived in Europe you would live off government grants.  You are a penis.  Fuck off.
