98. My give a shit meter is now broken
Sun Mar 16, 2014, 06:22 PM
Mar 2014

It is lodged so firmly past "not at all" that I don't know what to do with it. I shook it a few times, but no, it's still stuck way past "don't give a shit".

Nothing gives me more joy than to see those who are so absolutely sure what their makers intend than those that meet him for themselves and find out they are doomed.
