Oh no. Now I have all these thoughts about peoples' cropped avatars and what we aren't seeing. Hoooo boy... I don't feel so good.

My avatar is cropped from a photo taken for the Illinois Department of Corrections handbook. I'm showing newbies the "hands up, pants down" stance they'll need for daily searches.

Just so you know.

I can't believe they could afford to get Laa-Laa to pose for the handbook. That's gotta be some serious cash!

Tinky Winky had volunteered to do it pro-bono in an attempt to buoy his reputation when his name was being soiled by the Reverend Falwell. He was planning to make a video with prisoners showing them how to have fun in the shower and stuff. But then his purse got stolen so he had to go to court.

Uh-ohhhhhhh!

Anyhoo Linus, you're a top chap and I not trying to start a fight wid ya...

Let's hug like women and head out for coco and schnapps.

When I was Straight Edge it meant no Booze, drugs -including coffee and smokes-, veganism, no sex with girlies that weren't a steady girlfriend... I guess things have loosened up.

The one thing I learnt while Straight Edge was a keen understanding why Straight Edge people are pissed off all the time.

Hey, agreed!

I don't know about that. I did some research on Straight Edge a while ago because I didn't know if I was Straight Edge or not. What I found out was that there is no SxE Pope or Governing Council to answer my question. The only things that pretty much everyone agreed on were: no drinking, no smoking, no "hard" drugs, and no going back. If you "used to be straight edge" you weren't really straight edge, you just thought you were. This is the meaning of "True till death." You can become straight edge, but you can't become not straight edge. Some consider this ridiculous, but I think it's perfectly reasonable. "Straight Edge" is not a well-defined term, and what definition it has comes from within its own community. If they wish to self-define that term in that way, I'm okay with it. The other things - caffeine, medicinal drugs, premarital sex, extra-relationship-al sex, veganism, devotion to hard core punk rock, the violent imposition of SxE beliefs and practices on others, and even vegetarianism - all seemed to be up for debate. I decided that I was "probably not" really Straight Edge. I might casually mention in conversation, if it comes up, that I'm straight edge, but if pressed, I will readily admit that I am Not Really.

I digressed again! Oh my!
