Re: A general apology
Oh, do get over yourself.
This is the internet. It's not real.

There is no reality
I am hooked up to a machine, The Matrix has me. I took the white pill by mistake, instead of the red or blue pills. Now I'm stuck here with the hallucinations The Matrix feeds me. Everyone else is either a computer program, or a real person like me stuck in The Matrix. Bush and Kerry are computer programs and represent the same 40 Wall Street corporations. Bush was allowed to become President because 2/3rds of US citizens did not vote, and we got penalized when people got confused in Florida.
Life is really one big soap opera, when your ratings drop below a certain level, you die. I've been lucky enough that my sufferings raised my ratings to a point that my life was spared.
Everything in this post is a lie, including this sentence.
