Seriously, I think there may be a media report later on explaining how I died of boredom today.

I'm tired. I'm cranky. I have a blister on my left heel. My stomach is upset.

I'm slowly wending my way through a dense manual and my heart's just not in it.

I've also spent my morning reading some treatise by some dumb man who wants public affirmation for his desire to screw around on his wife, the inanest interview of Cynthia Nixon on being a lesbian, a creepy article on parties for father's to celebrate their daughter's purity (where withholding your body to remain chaste = love) and slams today's sexually permissive environment and pop culture (where promoting yourself as a sex object = love) because making up your own mind to do what you want with your body for your own reasons is apparently too obscure a notion.

And Linda Holmes hasn't delivered her final commentary on Survivor yet, and I'm twitching to read it.

On the hilarious side though, there's this accompaniment to the recent spate of oceanic formalwear.

I want an iced chai, but I'm too apathetic to march myself outside to get it.

Plus it's drizzling, dammit.

And and and... everything is poop today.

MEH.

I've read about the purity balls thing before -- which, ick to the million billionth power, and which I COULD GO ON AT LENGTH ABOUT but I won't because my head gets all 'splodey -- and knew that NYT article was making rounds, but thanks to that post on Feministing. Did you read the comments? This one was pricesless:

That is a fucking awesome comment. I think I'm in love with her friend who said:

"I find gum with experience is a better chew!"

inorite? Like, how much do you want to give that girl fifty billion imaginary dollars for being so quick with a fucking BRILLIANT comeback and calling that guy out on being a creepy fascist jerk preaching the patriarchal bullshit?? WOMEN FUCKING RULE YOU MISOGYNISTIC GASBAGS.

Also? "I find gum with experience is a better chew!" would make an AWESOME t-shirt. Or, OR! AN LJ ICON OH MAN.

DAMMIT NOW I NEED A PAID ACCOUNT SO I HAVE ROOM FOR "WOMEN FUCKING RULE" TYPE OF ICONS. And also "When religion ruled the world they called it the Dark Ages" type of icons.

In other news, purity balls = some scary-ass shit, yo.

And, dude, I totally agree--very scary shit!
