Giving White People a Bad Name

So ok, I was at the premeire for "Over the Hedge" last night. I liked it! Not the best movie you'll see this year, but a good time none the less. I love Hammy.

Now, the area the theater was in is predominantly Hispanic, and the premier was sponsered by a Spanish-language radio station, so when the giveaways started, I wasn't surprised that the lady was conducting it in Spanish. This didn't stop other rude fucks in the audience from yelling self-righteously, "SPEAK ENGLISH!". After 3 or 4 different shouts, the poor lady was looking uncomfortable and glancing sideways at her boss, who was starting to look pissed (he was a white guy, too) -- so I yelled, "SPEAK FRENCH!" To my utter shock, the stupid shouts stopped.

The things that were given away in Spanish were books, magazines, posters ... printed in Spanish. After those were gone, they gave away the printed-in-English stuff away in English. I hope the O'Reilly fans felt stupid. Probably not, but I can dream.

This made me feel a lot better; when I first got there, I didn't feel so good. My ex, Jeff (aka "Snake") was there. That's not the bad part ... the screwy thing was seeing who his new wife is. He's now marryed to Beth -- the same Beth that Vincent's dad, Mark, was married to!! At first it was funny; I told my friend, "We have to warn Tom that he's next!" But then I thought about it ... she's marryin' all the guys that wouldn't marry me! Bitch! I've often wondered what makes me inherently un-marriable, but my sadness can morph into anger, now that it has a focus. Unfair? Yes. I don't care. "Well, that's not very Libra of you, Shirley." Perhaps you're forgetting my Scorpio Ascendent.

I once read that your Sun sign was the self that you show to people, and your Ascendent was who you are on the inside. That fits here; I would never go around talking shit about Beth for her man choices, but I have no problem thinking nasty, petty things in my own mind.

However, as penance, I make myself watch this:
