Jul. 29th, 2004 07:01 pmone day, the amount of ignorance in the world is actually going to make me have some kind of nervous breakdown. some quotations from a messageboard i've just been browsing:
It would be easier if [homosexuality] were natural.
If doctors could see the chemical inbalance while the baby is still a fetus, it should be aborted. I'm Atheist and I loathe homosexuals.
***
Everyone is heterosexual. Some of you may have a homosexual problem. But you are still a heterosexual. 'Homosexual' is simply a description of a psychological disorder, prompted by an inner sense of emptiness. This by the way, is non-religious, non-political information. This is scientific information.

want to know the freakiest thing that's happened to me all month?
i've been working with this girl at the kids' holiday camp, we've been getting on really well, we were planning to go shopping together, stuff like that. today we were talking about ex-leaders from the camp, and we started to talk about a guy called ed.
me: 'i remember him! there was a running joke about how he looked like a camel!'
her: 'oh my god! yes! my sister even made a camel in arts & crafts, & gave it to him!'
me: '...what was your sister's name?'
it begins to dawn on me that i remember this episode. specifically, i remember two sisters who spent a week hanging around with l.b. and myself at this holiday camp. in 1999. i remember taking their address down, but losing it, and ending up never contacting them again. i begin to realise that i have spent the last 2-and-a-half weeks working with the elder of these sisters.
i am still a little shaken by the absolute ridiculousness of it all.
god bless the arbitrary universe of wilde and the existentialists!
(i am aware of the inherent surreality of this statement. actually, i rather like it.)
