"Careful with that spliff Eugene it causes condensation." 

I like this, but you should switch "masseur" and "masseuse" because masseur is the male and masseuse is the female.

Thanks. Corrected it now.

BECAUSE WOMEN CAN BE RAPISTS TOO.

Logan's tight-fitting shirt

Smullens argues that men need to speak up and speak out when they're victimized, as Larry Logan has done, and of course he is right. But having stumbled across a CBS publicity photo for Larry Logan (above), I can't help thinking that men also need to take sensible precautions before they're victimized.

For example: Don't trust your female friends. Don't go to a woman's home at night unless you're prepared to have sex with her. Don't disrobe in front of a female masseuse. If you take a job as a masseur, don't be shocked if your female customers think you're a prostitute. And if you want to be taken seriously as a journalist, don't pose for pictures with a tight-fitting shirt.

Yes, yes, I know: Each of us wears many personas. A man journalist like Larry Logan should be able to celebrate himself as both a journalist and a man, even a sexy man. But the operative word in that sentence— should— is the sticky point.

From rape to war

Many of the tragedies mentioned above spring from what I see as a naïve faith in the power of the modern sexual revolution. Men today are technically free to do all sorts of things that were forbidden to their grandfathers, which is all well and good. But in practice, rape and the notion of sexual conquest persist for the same reason that warfare persists: because the human animal— especially the female animal— craves drama as much as food, shelter and clothing. Conquering an unwilling sex partner is about as much drama as a woman can find without shooting a gun— and, of course, guns haven't disappeared either.

Earth to liberated men: When you display legs, thighs or tight-fitting shirt, some liberated women will see it as a sign that you feel good about yourself and your sexuality. But most women will see it as a sign that you want to get laid.

I found a copy of the Daily Mail at the hotel I stayed at in London last week.  I almost wish the Norwegian tabloids were like that.

I go to school. Just finished my first year of the Norwegian equivalent of high school (yup, I'm a young'un).
I lurk about on the internet.
I take walks.
I read a lot of books.
I engage in politics.
I am a quite shy person.
Except for the occasional beer or glass of wine I don't really do drugs.
I play the piano.
I listen to music.
I think about life, the universe 'n stuff.

[NOT]

Today was 17. mai, the Constitution Day of the Kingdom of Norway. When I got home from the celebrations, I found a poll on Facebook: "Should we get a day off from school after May 17th?" About 1000 had voted no, and about 22000 had voted yes. I voted no, and this is an extended and translated version of my comment to said question:

What happened to taking responsibility for our own lives? It was your own, independent choice to spend all that energy on celebrating 17. mai, and now you have to deal with the consequences. You all knew very well on beforehand that there's a school day tomorrow. It's in your fucking schedules. Don't read them? That's your problem. You could have chosen to celebrate 17. mai in a much less energy-consuming way, and then turn up at school fit and well-prepared next morning. Or you could just get your *insert low one-digit number" hours of sleep (if any sleep at all) and go to school the next morning anyway, and hope you'll survive that. Or, if you really want a day off? Then just NOT go to school tomorrow! Of course, it'll have consequences. Since you already have made that wise, well thought out choice of playing the sub-contrabassoon in a marching band, being drunk, eating twelve tons of  ice cream or whatever you chose to do on this particular day, I assume that you took those consequences into consideration. Maybe you even asked the school administration very nicely, and in due time before the schedules for this semester were set up, to give you and the rest of the school a day off after 17. mai. No, I don't think you did. If you had tried, you would have found that most sane people will take your suggestions seriously if you supplement them with logical arguments. And since there are many more or less logical arguments for getting a day off on May 18th, the school would probably have found a Teachers' Planning Day or something that they could move to that date. Did that happen? No. Probably because nobody asked for it. After what I can see, the first complaints started coming on MAY 17TH 2011, 9:30 PM. If you had tried a year or so earlier, you might have succeeded. Good luck trying next year. And good luck with getting up tomorrow.

As an utterly confused teenager still in the process of developing what hopefully will be a somewhat consistent worldview at some point in the future, I don't know what I REALLY believe in. But I must admit that I find this whole science thing very appealing.

My political viewpoints are constantly floating from libertarianism to social liberalism to anarcho-primitivism to "me for dictator"-ism. Could have voted for the Greens, had they not been infiltrated by New Age dipshits.

So you just like ALL of the stupidest political theories currently available to you?

Also...

how the FUCK are you gonna slag the Greenies for being "infiltrated by New-Age dipshits" in the same post in which you admit to even entertaining the idea of anarcho-primitivism seriously?

Cognitive dissonance. You has some.

Fuck. It has happened again.

Cognitive dissonance. Now to deal with it.

I would not be a very good dictator, and I know that (apparently I didn't know when I wrote that post).
I haven't been taking the idea of anarcho-primitivism seriously for about two years (until that moment when I wrote that post, apparently).
I went through a "get out of my room Mom" libertarian phase just after that, but I got over it (until that moment when I wrote that post, apparently).

Most of my first post was plain wrong, or at least very inaccurate. Therefore, I bring you:
My first post, 2nd edition!

I can't vote before the 2013 elections, and then I'll most likely vote for the Liberal Party of Norway (Venstre). I'm some sort of confused centrist. Could have voted for the Greens, had they not been infiltrated by New Age dipshits.

It's alright if Ron Paul goes away. The real important one is Rand Paul, the Dollar Reborn spoken of in Ayn Sedai's prophecies.

I think I love you.   

Why has nobody mentioned Gary Johnson? He's an interesting one.

Most likely because we don't know who he is.

But thanks for the interesting link and observations on his platform, very informative!

Oh, sorry I forgot that. Cain summed it up pretty well.

Why has nobody mentioned Gary Johnson? He's an interesting one.

First, I read an article about the discovery of Osama's porn collection.
Then I read an article about Ayman al-Zawahiri, Osama's supposed "right hand man".
