Hive For The Holidays!

[Angel Tarragon]

No, it's a psychological technique. By calling a male by an obviously female name, I am implying that he is in fact a woman. And due to the pervasive effects of our culture's dismissal and marginalization of women over the past 6,000 years or so, I am attributing to him the qualities of being weak and incapable of dealing with such things as warm weather. By removing his gender identity, I have in turn questioned his very worth. Thus, I invite him to "man up", i.e. reclaim his own identity, but only by conforming to my world view. I.e., the warm weather is quite pleasant, and only by agreeing with me, can he truly return to any value in my eyes.

Whoa. Thats seriously twisted.

Me, I'd say "Pfft, Whatever." and walk away without a care.

"Hate leads to suffering..."

Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory my chains are broken.
The force shall free me.

Lost you we had to the dark side... yes.

Johnny Cash - A Boy Named Sue

One of my favourite songs too. I have one old vinyl album that has a "Bleep" on it during this song

I mean seriously! There's gotta be something strange about censoring music albums...

 

[Relique du Madde]

That still happens today... At wall mart they used to sell censored (for air play) albums where the vocal track cuts out.

Wow... I had no idea. This particular album is the only one I've EVER heard with a "Bleep". You know, it's the "Son-of-a-B..." line that was bleeped out.
