People,

So, last night I was sitting around with Brendo Frendo, Ladyfriend Sarah and Supermaura. BF and I came over to LS and SM's apartment to catch the season finale of the Sopranos, but got there early and ended up catching about a half hour of the Tony's.

I hate musical theater. Hate it. Hate hate hate hate it. I mean, I really don't like it. So, during one of the performances I made a nasty pained face.

Ladyfriend Sarah: Are you OK?
Me: No
LS: What's wrong?
Me: I think this woman has reached into my rectum and stolen one of my turds.
LS: You're an asshole. You're just showing off and ruining it for people like me and Maura who actually like this stuff

And of course she was right. I was exhibiting one of my least favorite behaviors in the world - the "I can't let anyone else believe anything I don't believe in without being horribly condescending and hateful about it" behavior.

I mean, this was a relatively mild case of ICLAEBAIDBIWBHCAHAI, but I was thinking about it this morning on my ride in after I saw the example of ICLAEBAIDBIWBHCAHAI I hate the most - the Darwin fish.

For those of you unfamiliar with the Darwin fish, here's how it works: some Christians put these metal fish decals on their cars to celebrate their faith with a symbol of one of Jesus's works. I have no problem with this. It's like someone wearing a Good Charlotte t-shirt. I believe Good Charlotte is terrible, just like I believe Jesus didn't die for my sins, but if it floats your boat and doesn't hurt me or my peeps then more power to you.

Anyway, a few years ago another decal started appearing. This one featured the same fish, but inside was written "Darwin". Now, I believe Darwin was on to something with that evolution stuff, but I hate the Darwin fish. I mean, how much of an asshole do you have to be to put that on your car? The only possible meaning of the Darwin fish is "hey christians, you guys are really really stupid, way stupider than me. How can you be so stupid, stupid dick?" It's an incredibly rude gesture and I feel embarassed every time I see one.

Anyway, I'm no poster boy for tolerance, but isn't life hard enough without rubbing each other's noses in shit all the time? In a word, dag.
