    762 days ago

    I had Birkenstocks in high school. I was that guy. And I was sure that those people on the other side of the political spectrum were trying to control my life. And then I went to Boulder and got rid of my Birkenstocks immediately, because everyone else had them and I realized that these people over here want to control my life too. I guess that defines my political philosophy. If anybody’s telling me what I should do, then you’ve got to really convince me that it’s worth doing.

    Here’s a good one. I’m not so much for anything as I am against most things. Something to think about. Is this reasonable? It brings to mind a cynical, pessimist, ‘hey kids! off my damn lawn!’ sort of attitude – an attitude that I embrace in a lot of ways – but one that at the same time I feel a little guilty embracing.
