Oh, yay, another thread bitching about me!

Seriously, infamy is cool, but the joke ceased to be funny the FIRST time you wandered over to my journal. Do you really want to be the second person I ban? Third, if you count the guy I unbanned the same day just because?

Anyway, now I am forced to ponder the question: If you don't like my repetitive posts (and I never claimed to have a varied subject matter), why are you reading my blog often enough to know that I stick to the same few subjects (politics, autism, linguistics, school/family, and interesting NY-related news, mostly) all the time?

Since that question is very detailled, I'll ask a more general one:

If you don't like me, why are you reading the blog?

Most interesting answer gets a cookie!

Not sure if it'll be the most interesting, but I bet they're just trying to find something to flame you about OR just reading because they really DO have "nothing better to do".

I read because I like you and you inform me of things you know more about than I do.

Same here, deal? :-)

They secretly love you but you don't show their affections back! So they think that if they post anonymous comments about you that say you suck and annoy you enough you will confide your sadness in them. Then you two will grow close and fall in love!


... Alright, I'll stop being wacky now. Hopefully that was amusing enough :)

Ack!

Well, I'm sorry if my attempt at humor totally flopped and/or made you upset or something similar.

They can't look away! They are captivated by your autism!

It has a hole in its neck. It's a crop of a picture of a well beaten electrocuted feral ferret.

I'm having a hard time seeing a ferret in that... ::makes sure her two are safe in their hammocks.::

And California thinks my critters will eat their chickens! Blah. They look nothing like ferals.

We need you on our side

"As Weishaupt lived under the tyranny of a despot and priests, he knew that caution was necessary even in spreading information, and the principles of pure morality. This has given an air of mystery to his views, was the foundation of his banishment.... If Weishaupt had written here, where no secrecy is necessary in our endeavors to render men wise and virtuous, he would not have thought of any secret machinery for that purpose."

Thomas Jefferson, Autist


It seems a movie cliche, but it has its roots in the truth. Those powers we see in the "illuminated" are often discovered first through anger and rage. This is why so many autists have "paranormal" abilities, like the kind Donna Williams describes in her biographies. The meltdowns unlock the powers. What we are trying to do is to create a situation of stress so that our agents can observe your potential. We are also exploring your political and behavioral self-reporting.

Because our plan to "annoy you into telekinesis" isn't working, we're going to come clean. We need you, Connie. The Age of Light is upon us. We have hidden in the shadows for over two-hundred years, waiting for the time to be right. You think this recent increase in autism is accidental? Better reporting? People jumping onto a "sexy" diagnosis? No, it's careful planning. Our ultimate goal is to create a breed of Philosopher-Kings.

I know it sounds crazy, but you have to trust me on this one. Our seers predict that you have vast potential. If our enemies get to you first, it could be too late. That's why I'm telling you this now.
