goddamn the entitlement.
Apr. 8th, 2002 12:03 pmAttention white people.
The world does not revolve around you. And you probably know you're not supposed to think your way of seeing life is right or best (not that it necessarily stops you), but you should also know it is also not common or normal.
I think I need a baseball bat to more effectively bust up people's pedestals that they're standing on. And smash the blinders they wear. I'm also interested in kidnapping their high horses that they like to ride into other people's communities to help "save the day".
Now my brain is hurting along with my head.

I'm not white, okay. I'm <i>European</i> - Riiight.
Date: 2002-04-08 10:56 am (UTC)My whole weekend felt like it was all about entitlement.
Mine revolved around gender more than race, though.
My brother: "I just... I just don't get that whole transgender thing."
I schooled him as best I could. I think we made some headway. He's a bright guy.
Lesbian acquaintance: "It bugged me when K was all, 'what about the tranny boys.' She - excuse me, he - was all upset because my website has girl in the name. I mean, what's she freaking out about she needs to calm down."
um, yeah. Way to go, pronoun queen.
Anyway, I see your frustration and I raise you a - um - cookie?

That's so weird. That part of your post feels like it was extracted directly from my brain. Interesting. I expecially like the "high horse" comment. Marvelous.

What do you say?
