17. That scene was hilarious
The rap song that went along with that scene: "Die, motherfucker, die, motherfucker, die!"

2. I generally start small...
Edited on Mon Jan-08-07 07:09 PM by Kutjara
...by grumbling at my toaster or looking a bit peeved with my weed whacker, then graduate to being really quite cross with washing machines in general. Before I know it, I've directed my ire at entire classes of equipment, so it is but a small step to a full-on rage against The Machine.

Then I usually take a short nap.

3. Perfect, but one modification if I could be so bold.
I'm going to change the last step to a long nap. Much better for me.

10. Excuse me, sir!
But I never gave you permission to sing my theme song.

I had visions, I was in them,
I was looking into the mirror
To see a little bit clearer
The rottenness and evil in me

Fingertips have memories,
I can't forget the curves of your body
And when I feel a bit naughty
I run it up the flagpole and see who salutes
(But no one ever does)

I'm not sick, but I'm not well
and I'm so hot 'cause I'm in hell

Been around the world and found
That only stupid people are breeding
The cretins cloning and feeding
And I don't even own a TV

Put me in the hospital for nerves
And then they had to commit me
You told them all I was crazy
They cut off my legs now I'm an amputee, Goddamn you

I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And it's a sin, to live so well

I wanna publish 'zines
And rage against machines
I wanna pierce my tongue
It doesn't hurt, it feels fine
The trivial sublime
I'd like to turn off time
And kill my mind
You kill my mind
Mind...

Paranoia, paranoia
Everybody's comin' to get me
Just say you never met me
I'm runnin' underground with the moles
Diggin' in holes
Hear the voices in my head
I swear to God it sounds like they're snoring
But if you're bored then you're boring
The agony and the irony, they're killing me, whoa!

I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And I'm so hot cause I'm in hell
I'm not sick, but I'm not well
And it's a sin to live this well

(One, two, three, four!)

13. Depends. If it's a small appliance, you can throw it our the window.
If it's something larger, you might consider hiring contractors to do it for you.
