Wow!!  Heh!!  OMG!!  So for the next week...I'm going to be sharing some of my favorite past entries...and basically giving you directors commentary.  Think of it as a lowbudget dvd special feature...



For a little while I had this idea...What if you could write a letter to those people/ideas that really just irked you?  What would you say?  Would you be nice and diplomatic or just plain "in your face"?  I only wrote a few of these, and as I sit here typing this, I can't remember why.  Who knows, I maybe one day I'll add to the few of these that exist.

This one I think came across just scathing enough to make a point.  It's actually one of my favorites because this is the first thing I ever wrote that got a comment from someone whom I didn't know.  I really felt a sense of accomplishment that day.  Personally, I believe I was just in a bad mood, and was just sick of dealing with stupid ignorance.  I mean I can think of a hundred reasons to hate someone, that doesn't involve race. color. creed, or orientation.  I mean, even "He looked at me funny." is a better excuse.  So here you go...From the very short lived "LETTERS TO ONAUGH" period, I give you...


Dear Closed Minded People,

How are you doing today?

I'm feeling a bit of spit and vinegar towards you today.

I saw a shirt that truly pissed me off and well that led me to this little outburst. The shirt said "Straight Pride" on the front and "God made Adam and Eve, not Adam on Steve on the back. This shirt just made me realize how simple minded some of you are...no wait, I mean it made me realize what simple minded mother fuckers some of you are.

Gay, Bi or Lesbian, they are still people with real voices and ideas. They didn't ask you to join them in their lives, but you make sure you try to drag them down anyway.

What they do is not a matter or concern for you.

You are just a drop of piss in the toilet bowl of your own existence.

They like most of us don't care what your opinion is. They like most of don't want to hear your opinion.

So stop trying to force it down my throat. I can form my own opinions. I'm special like that. I like to make my own opinions. I usually use things like facts to help but I'm really weird like that.

I don't need you to bring a higher power into a debate over what is right or wrong. The Bible gave us two simple rules...Love God, and Love each other because in doing so, you love God. I've read the Bible, a few times. Never does it say, tear your fellow man down. Nor does it say beat them up in my name. Again, and just to reitterate, Love God, and Love each other because in doing so, you love God.

Here are a couple of rules that are evident in the bible...

Turn the other cheek...sound familiar?

Love thy brother as you would thy self...any bells ringing?

I mean we have all heard the saying ignorance is bliss right? But let's all be honest, it's only blissful when the ignorant leave.

So to all you close minded afterbirths, whose conception was just because the semen leaked after an anal encounter, I have this last statement.

Let it go.

The only true waste of the gene pool, is not the little gay couple having a dinner, but the waste that won't leave them alone.

Get over it.

You really aren't that special.

Sincerely,
Me
