There are a couple of GTs and at least one ID on my f-list. Where are my ATs at?

EDIT THE MILLIONTH: oh, for fuck's sake, this button thingum hates me. I IS ANALYTICAL THINKER.

This test seems very generalized, to me. And yet I got a fairly accurate result, all the same. *shrug*

Uggh, you guys... it's the fourteenth day and it's getting worse again. I'm getting insane hormonal cravings, as if I were pregnant. I NEVER WANTED ANY PART OF THIS. I could seriously kill my hormones right now.

I went for a very lame walk around Point Isabel and didn't even make it all the way around most of the track. Two weeks ago I could do an hour on the Seaview Trail, which is god-knows-how-long and almost all uphill. I didn't reach the end, but still. Can I be more of a wuss? Please? That'd be awesome. //sarcasm

Dinner was interesting: my brother and I went to Picante together, while my parents stayed at home. I'm not entirely sure why they did that, but we had fun laughing at the family of six next to us. The smallest child kept trying to build something with her chips and every time they fell her dad would go "STOP PLAYING WITH YOUR FOOD, LILY!" in a booming voice, which startled me at least three times.

Also, on a random Harry Potter geek tangent, there was a dog at Point Isabel named Lady Rowena. I managed to resist the urge to ask "Rowena Ravenclaw?" but only barely.

I think I've gone from OMG EVERYTHING IS SRS BZNS CRY MOAR to HAHAHAHAA I'M SO HIGH EXCEPT NOT RLY LOLZ. Which is far more fun, but almost less conducive to dealing with actual shit, so that's getting put off for another day. Can you tell I had fun tagging this post?

EDIT THE MILLIONTH AND ONE: y helo thar, huge fucking arachnid right next to my face.

SDLFKJLSGDFLHGFDKJHJSD I AM SO SICK OF HAVING TO AVOID MY F-LIST TO PREVENT GETTING SPOILED.

STOP IT WITH THE SPOILERY ICONS AND THE PUTTING REACTIONS OUTSIDE OF LJ-CUTS, F-LIST. PLEASE. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

IF YOU DON'T KNOW HOW TO USE AN LJ-CUT, LEARN.

I JUST SPENT A LOT OF TIME WAITING FOR THE FINALE AND GETTING ALMOST SPOILED AND I AM NOTNOTNOT HAPPY. AT ALL. NO, THAT IS NOT A SPOILER, I'M UNHAPPY WITH THE SPOILERS.

I AM SO FUCKING TEMPTED TO CUT EVERYONE WITH THE BAD SPOILERS AND FILTER THE ONES THAT AREN'T QUITE AS BAD. IF I CUT YOU FROM MY F-LIST, THAT IS WHY.

JUST LEARN SOME FUCKING MANNERS AND BE COURTEOUS ENOUGH NOT TO RUIN IT FOR EVERYONE ELSE. *STABS THINGS*


on a side note, i have downloaded the finale and am watching it for the second time tonight. if you want to talk to me about it i am on AIM/Y!M/MSN NVM, forget it, I'm exhausted and pissy and you probably want to talk to me about as much as I want to stay awake.

Just in case... THERE MAY BE SPOILERS FOR 3x16 IN THE COMMENTS. That's how you do it, bitches.

This came up in loyal_badger and I'm trying very, very hard not to get too steamed up about it, because I never want to cause drama and wank among those lovely people. But really, it surprises me that even in fair places like Hufflepuff, you still hear statistics about how many gay people exist in the world.

I've heard one in every ten people are gay, and now I've heard one in twenty, too. This is something that always makes me go off on a rant, whether it's a judgment on how many gay couples should be in a fic or how many gay characters there can be in an RPG.

Yes, of course you have a right to your opinion. But I also have a right to tell you when I think your opinion is flawed and defend all the people you are labeling statistics, especially because this is only one of my BIGGEST PET PEEVES EVER.

I'm trying not to get hot under the collar about it, you guys, I'm trying so hard. This is not about any of the Hufflepuffs; in fact, they were very kind about debating with me when I brought it up, which I appreciate. It simply annoys me that such heterocentric statistics are so universally accepted that it doesn't even occur to nice, fair people like that that they might end up offending someone. I'm personally a little bit offended to be considered a statistic by so much of the world, and (righteously, I think) annoyed on the behalf of the people that can't speak up for themselves about it.

And no, I am not putting this under a cut, or even locking it. THIS IS IMPORTANT TO ME, K. DEAL WITH IT.

Statistics about sexuality are STATISTICALLY FLAWED. It is not possible to put a number on how many gay people there are, not when homosexuality is taboo and closeted, because you can hardly expect people being surveyed about their sexuality to answer honestly. Even people that are out and proud are bound to be suspicious of a random surveyor wanting to know what their sexuality is, and can you blame them? THERE ARE FAR TOO MANY PEOPLE IN THIS WORLD THAT WOULD SEVERELY HURT THEM OR AT LEAST HATE THEM FOR ADMITTING IT.

Any surveys that require humans to answer questions are statistically flawed by design alone, because people LIE. A lot. When the survey is about a social stigma like being GAY, those statistics will be even further off and even less significant.

Just... think about that next time you try to assign statistics to any "minority", ok? All I want is for people to realize what their words can do and not use them without understanding the consequences.

Sorry for the foaming at the mouth rant. I'm cooling off now that it's off my chest, I swear. >.>
