because not everyone understands my sense of humor

(... which is, by the way, totally okay), and also because Mike seems to think that there are people out there that may have interpreted my Arianne-Nation gag at the top of my page as the actual 'aryan nation' (which, may I point out, is spelled completely different), I have slightly tweaked said gag at the top of my page. I direct you to take a look.

Yeah. It's just not as funny. But, opposed to the wandering stranger getting the wrong impression of Arianne of Yakima as a bigoted racist, maybe this is the better way to go. It seems, for me anyway, going subtle just makes everyone happier.

Or acting clueless. That works too. And if you happen to be blond as well as female, it seems if you act like you didn't know that you're actually supposed to seek permission for most beyond the ordinary activities (such as picking the flowers at the state park. Just an example), or, say, switching lanes while driving your car.... to cut to the chase, it's like my mom's always said. 'it's easier to ask forgiveness than it is to ask permission.' Lot more efficient too.

Did I mention my mom is also blonde? We just don't get enough credit for everything we get done while everyone else seems to deem it necessary to wait around to get permission.

What other reason do they put those big lanes directly in front of the school entrance for? The buses only use them twice a day anyway.

Also.... is Yahoo Answers your Questions messing with me, or are fingernails really just made of dead skin cells? Because, honestly, it's got to be more complicated than that.

Right?
