Does the snotty email I sent to Gateway make me one of those people? I don't want to be one of them, but damnit I can't stand hearing the word kidney come out of that dumb bitch's mouth everytime there's a break in programming. It's annoying. She should say "I shouldn't have to sell babies" or "stem cells" or "immigrants". Those would be funny and not annoying. Oh, but if she said stem cells, people would be offended... what people? People who are offended by stem cell research are probably also offended by organ donation, and vaccinations and Flinstones vitamins and science in general because they are freakish, archaic religous weirdos I want to kick.

I'm a little more frustrated than I had realized. All this technology and all this medicine and yet Bob and I are still crazy, Bryan still has to have a machine clean his blood and Jessica can't buy a pancreas at WalGreen's and I don't understand why.

Fat girls can get vaccuumed and myopic eyes get blasted with lasers and my little brother's acne was cleared up with a pill but real sickness just winds through my life, wreaking havoc and making people I love suffer and I hate it. Damnit.
