apollinavJust a short kvetching if you don't mind.
Dear Assholes,
Yes, you know who you are. If you don't, please allow me to elaborate. At a children's/family event please note that it is bad form to push five year olds and intimidate children. (That goes for you Slags too) Yes, I realize the sniveling ankle-biters are mighty annoying, but acting their age is wholly inappropriate.
Today I attended the Krewe of Gemini Mardi Gras parade in Shreveport, Louisiana. It's a Family-oriented event. While open drinking containers are permitted, flashing boobies for prezzies is not. It creates an interesting environment where Girl Scout troops line up next to old chain smoking hussies in tight shirts as they both scramble for the same 1cent set of beads. Note to adults: Don't scream at the Girl Scouts. EVER. Don't cackle when you grab the beads out of their hands. Don't pull and or tug on small tots to get closer to the parade floats.
It's unacceptable. And it's a damn good thing I'm unarmed and unwilling to go to jail, because the buttstock of my M-16 can do some serious damage to caked on makeup.
And if you think I'm exaggerating, you should have seen the displays.
I need a margarita.

Date: 23 February 2009 01:14 am (UTC)I just finished my first Dramione fic for the HP_Spring_Fling and I had to cut it at 10,500 words though it could have easily gone on to 20,000. The funny thing was I kept feeling like somehow I had cheated on SS by writing the pairing. Odd that.
