Thats "blaspheme"<br />

"The" sexual activeness, or just sexual activeness in general? Youre not a<br />

native english speaker, are you?<br />

If your’re getting to <strong>the</strong> point of writing anti-choice haiku, maybe you should<br />

take two valium and rest for a while. Or maybe thorazine. You’ve probably<br />

Thorazine, haven’t you, Marlon? The distortion of affect in your post<br />

is a giveaway. If anyone doesn’t see what Im talking about, mail me and I’ll<br />

try to explain.<br />

How on earth you got an account at MIT, I can’t imagine. You certainly dont<br />

<strong>the</strong>re. Are you really a person, or just a program that spews out<br />

half-baked schizoid phrases? I’ll bet that you hear voices on a regular basis,<br />

and/or believe your actions and thoughts are being observed. Interesting.<br />

Weird, but interesting. Should have kept that mouth away from that LSD.<br />
