Sigh, this is pissing me off how I keep doing this, but I'm going to have to side with Adam on this one. Even though it's something I strongly believe in, I am rather curious if everyone will attack me as strongly as Everescent and company have been attacking Adam, or if this reaction stems from the fact that everyone hates Adam. Now, I'm not going to go running around telling people who don't want to hear about my bodily functions, because I'm fully aware that most people don't want to hear about those sorts of things, and, at the moment, I really don't feel like discussing them anyway. But all the taboos in our societies do greatly annoy me. This is actually a rather recent discovery that I made. I just sort of stepped back and looked at myself and others, and I realized that we do a lot of silly things and have a lot of silly inhibitions for no apparent reason. We're too image conscious, too self-conscious, and embarrassed too easily. Girls feel the need to cover their faces in makeup because they don't think their natural face is attractive enough. The frequency of plastic surgery is on the rise. It's all just so stupid. That's pretty much all I have to say.

And, Everescent: when we "hippies" refer to "the man," we're referring to those in charge of society, not those who are downtrodden. At least get your terms right before you start the verbal bashing. ^_^

And just to prove that these are my own feelings, and I'm just suddenly Adam's protector: Adam, you acted damned stupid for harassing HLF, and I think trying to put Yoda in the original Star Wars movie is one of the dumbest ideas I've heard.

The end.
