Jul. 20th, 2007 05:57 amHmm... Will probably meet with my Straight One tomorrow, and am now wondering if I'll be able to keep my mouth shut about the way I'm still disappointed in her.
Should probably think about this more.
I wonder if my withdrawing from the so called 'normal' stuff, whether lifestyle or people, is because of I'm so tired of being disappointed. It's easier to deal with other weirdoes, because most of us at least try to think about things instead of just repeating crap they're fed somewhere.
Not to say that online people don't disappoint me with their crap. There are just certain areas in which the disappointment hits hard, and being prejudiced over someone because of their sexual orientation and/or religion are my top two.
For the record, I did not punch her in the face when she said she hoped her unborn kid wasn't gay because, and I quote, 'it's weird and unnatural and like OMG men buttfucking each other is just nasty'. I didn't even call her an idiot, mostly because I was too shocked to really say anything.
Maybe I'm just thinking about this too hard.

I know what you mean; however, I've been wondering if I'm becoming less tolerant of the so-called normal people. The more I spend time with so-called freaks, the less easy it is for me to interact with people living in the bubble. It has been quite a revelation at this age to realise how little I've been myself in these past years, always keeping my mouth shut when something controversial has come up. Well, not always ;)
And yeah, your Straight One is remarkably thick-headed and downright rude. *pats you*

Date: 2007-07-20 09:59 pm (UTC)I don't want people to change their opinion to match mine, but please gods just have the most idiotic stop ranting all the time!
No one's 100% themselves with others all the time, but even though I keep some stuff hidden, I have absolutely no patience for idiots, so I usually at least tell them to STFU and keep their opinions to themselves when I'm around. Then again I work in an environment where discussion is encouraged and people are open to different ideas. You don't.
At least my Straight One looked chastised when I reminded her of her words and said that I'm so glad she thinks gay/bi people like me are despicable. :D

But nah... She's not that bad. It's nice to have some kind of a connection to your roots, and she's kind of like the cousins and other family I have but don't like to be in touch with.... Er... I mean she's like a relative you see now and then 'cause she's been a part of my life for 28 years even though we don't really live on the same planet.
