58. Now that is some truth

Feb 2015

And it happens all too often. It seems, if you write, "I don't like okra", some of the folks who can somehow stomach that particular unpopular vegetation without throwing up at just the thought will respond with, "You are an evil, vile, depraved example of the worst in the vegetable eating segment of humanity and you deserve nothing but contempt. How dare you express a counter opinion you awful okra-hating monster. You should leave this forum, leave this site, delete your profile, sterilize your children and just fucking die. Who's with me?"

Cue the vampire sheep.
