The second and third ones were ok. But the fourth one, when she birthed that vampire baby... omg it couldn't end soon enough.

They've never seen Shrek, but that's another discussion.

A nice choi...<i>Methinks such people project too much</i><br /><br />A nice choice of words. :) <br /><br />That pretty much sums it up, yeah. People project how they are on everyone else. So you have to wonder just how moral are the "devout" who insist that if they didn't believe, they'd be out doing horrible things.Philosophidianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06313942468242988568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8737957238409297404.post-60159942537640105382011-04-07T23:13:08.395-04:002011-04-07T23:13:08.395-04:00"atheists!

To wit: "I don't care for that genre." <br /><br />For instance, I've tried to read steampunk, and for the <i>most</i> part, I just don't particularly care for it.
