024- RELIGIOUS OBSERVANCES ARE FOR SQUARES (LIKE PANTS)

[uberboned]

Three points.

(1. I'm not an idiot. I know what this week is. By all means, have a Southern Baptist-style potluck supper for all I care. I'm not gonna be the little archangel that rained on your religious parade.

(2. In case you're all worried, no, I don't celebrate April Fool's Day. I'm a little more professional than that, thanks. Although, given the sheer number of dick moves people pull on that day, it's my busiest time of the year. ...That and Thanksgiving. I'm not sure why.

Anyway.

(3. I'm dragging Irene into the CES tomorrow. We'll be gone... Oh, a good three or four days. Maybe. If you need anything.... Y'know what? Just don't need anything.

That's not why I did it. It really isn't.

I'm just pointing out to the Marquis and anyone else who might think I'm sitting here on my little angel pedestal being huffy and offended that I got nixed by the Christians that I could care less. The fact that people think I oughta be offended bugs me more than anything.

Oh, right. Fair enough. I still didn't exactly do it to 'nix' you, but if you're not bothered... alright.

Trust me, Howie. It takes a lot to bother me.

Thanksgiving?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

American holiday, promoting gluttony and arguments on the front lawn. Real classy.

[inhumandog.livejournal.com]

It seems that way. That makes no sense. Why have a holiday to celebrate a sin?

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

In the eyes of a cynical son of a bitch like me, every major American holiday celebrates a sin. Christmas? Greed. Valentine's Day? Lust. Fourth of July? Wrath.

DON'T TELL ME YOU DIDN'T EXPECT HER ALL UP IN HERE

[thatlibbychick.livejournal.com]

I wouldn't call gluttony a true sin, regardless of what the bible might say...

So you are aware, sir, you may encounter another camping party in the CES whilst you are there.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Oh, Irene'll love that. People much more capable than she is out in the fake blue yonder with her.

Though I must warn you, the purpose of this other party's camping trip is escapism.

I imagine it best to keep a healthy distance, rather than approach?

Don't worry, Mrs. S, this is a learning experience for my inmate. I'm not poking any bears but the one I'm with.

THUNDERSTRUCK. not a word that applies to irene often.

[always-thewoman.livejournal.com]

...Three days?

ENJOY, IRENE.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Yep! Not much of a camping trip if you don't make it last.

GDU GABE.

[always-thewoman.livejournal.com]

I could do with 'not much of a camping trip'. Or 'no camping trip at all', really.

Melodramatic and obviously insincere response.

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

You're LEAVING ME?!

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

Only for a few days! Actually, this whole thing is kinda your fault. You got me thinkin' I don't spend nearly enough time with my inmate.

[yousethimfree.livejournal.com]

Oh.

Carry on.

HOW COULD YOU DO THIS TO HER BIFFLE.

[sonotahunter.livejournal.com]

...You're a barbarian.

READ THE JOURNAL NAME, BABY.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

I'm taking her camping. It's not like I'm taking her out back and shooting her.

IT SHOULD READ "PAIN PISSES OFF PEOPLE WITH HOLY OIL" BUT THAT'S TOO LONG.

[sonotahunter.livejournal.com]

No, common imagery associated with barbarism would suggest you'll club her instead.

[hulk]

Have a nice camping trip. Sounds like a nice way to get away from the general, you know. Crazy around here.

[painhumbles.livejournal.com]

I don't think nice is gonna cover it, considering I'm gonna have Irene bitchin' in my ear the whole time.

[hulk]

...Well, maybe not all the time. I mean, she'll have to stop to breathe, right?

[...Good lord, was that an attempt at a joke? I think it was. :O]
