Inspired after watching "Bridge to Teribithia" and listening to my husband explain how "Everyone has to die when it's their time" or some other such nonsense:

And maybe, just maybe, the lesson you need to learn has to do with dealing with difficult people. And I'll give you that, I'm a pain in the ass. I take no quarter because I'll settle for nothing less than tolerance.
Tolerance of others.
What a concept.
So, maybe, just maybe, I'll die when you stop wanting me to.
Weirding people out since 2006.
