Next time I post a dating or woman peeve here, somebody slap me.

I just read back the one from earlier today and realized how lame it was.

Peeve:  Went to see Dracula tonight and didn't get to.  JEE-ZUS!  It's
        getting to be a quest!  Tonight, I got there too late to see
        the last show.  So we saw Glen Gary Glenross.  Funny and full
        of dark humor.  Jack Lemmon, Al Pacino, the guy from The Right
        Stuff, and some others.  Not Dracula, but good enough.

Peeve2: Remember my check with the torn-off bottom?  No luck getting it
        cashed.  Now I must wade through countless layers of bureaucracy
        to get a replacement.  If I'm lucky, it'll be before the Spring
        Thaw.  Bastards.

Property ownership is a myth.  You think you bought a house and/or some
land?  No.  You just bought the right to rent it from the gubmint.  If and
when you stop paying their rent (read: TAXES) on it, they will forcibly
separate it from you.

Not just people, but questions, too:

Q: Why on earth would there be any need for an faq on alt.peeves?

A: Because some people who frequent the group think quite highly of
themselves and want to embed themselves in the cique they perceive to
exist.  By constructing an faq, stroking the people they look up to
and damning the people they loath, they can forget that fact they have
no "friends" unless they're reading news.

Q: Who is the intended audience of an faq?

A: The intended audience is the writer and those who fancy themselves
in the clique with the writer.  It's a vehicle to quell the
insecurities of those who feel they don't belong unless they have
their tongues firmly jammed up the bungholes of their betters.

Q: Well then, are you saying the addle-minded faq writers do so just
to see their name in print and gain allies?

A: Exactly.

yawn. the only difference between a good flame and a crappy post is 
perception I have found. Somehow, you have inexplicably become popular on
alt.peeves, and thus, your articles are perceived as witty and intelligent.

   Well, honey, if it's all in perception & most people perceive my posts
   as witty and intelligent and EVERYONE perceives your posts as insipid,
   banal and trite, doesn't that tell you something?

hehe. Amazing innit? Mortgage rates have come down from 16% to 8.5% and
house prices are now falling faster than they ever have. 

The guvmint has ploughed in 3/4 billion of *our* loot to buy 20,000
reposessed properties off the market. If they gave me a slice of that
loot then *I'd* buy one. It'd be just as sensible.

This apparently is going to save the housing market despite the fact
that 80,000 properties are reposessed every year and there are already
250,000 empty houses waiting to be sold (about equivalent to one years
supply of first time buyers).

The guvmint, despite spectacular failure in bucking markets a mere two
months ago, has yet to acquire a clue.

On the other hand, when they get around to simply bribing first time
buyers with mortgage tax relief on 100,000 Pounds and twenty grand in
hand if we'll only *please* buy a house, I'll be there with my clammy
paw out. I've already decided that it's entire;y consistent with my
philosophy to regard this as the guvmint simply surrendering some of the
loot it has already extorted from me :-)

Maybe I'll even buy Jeremy's flat if he's still trying to sell it :-)

Of course, I'll underbid. It's mandatory in today's market after all ;-)

Actually it's a bit more formal than that. Perhaps Matthew studied this
more extensively, but I seem to remember it going something like:

A. Socrates is a man
B. All men are rapist pig-dogs
Therefore
C. Socrates is a rapist pig-dog.

It's important to remember that as a man, you will be wrong. As someone
at a scary meeting once said, "All men have the capacity to rape, and
that makes them unworthy of our trust."

I fuckin' hate that argument. "But I wouldn't rape anyone," you try to
protest, "Hell, I couldn't even get it up if she weren't having a good
time."

"Doesn't matter," they'll retort. "You grew up knowing that the potential
was there, and it's poisoned your outlook. Besides, you probably interpret
'no' as 'yes'."
