<paulv> it's like "homosexuals will molest little kids" and I'm like "Brett's going to molest a little kid? Brett can hardly molest himself!"
<paulv> sometimes I can understand the other side's point. Like, I can understand why people think we should go invade Iraq. but I can't do that for this.
<matthew> paulv - don't be so closed minded. brett can surely learn to molest himself with pratice and the proper video tapes and audio self-help guides.
<paulv> matthew: well, yeah, but someone would have to tape his eyes open and stuff.

<matthew> If it goes as it normally does jrbl is obstinate and care free to the point that getting specific pickup and dropoff times is difficult.
<matthew> I suggest you call him and say; "shutup and tell me tot he minute what time you want to be picked up" when he answers, hangup. he'll get a kick out of it.
[Oct 2001]
[01:22] <@paulv> the length of this conversation is grossly out of proportion to the amount I care about it.
[07 Apr 2003]
<matthew> my cat loves me
<matthew> it's the bestest kitty in the whole wide world
[Sept 2001]
<matthew> you shouldn't live w/ people who you're seriously afraid are going to kill you.
<matthew> But I think you probably heard that somewhere. "Thing I learned in Kindergarten..."
