First interesting bit of news I’d like to discuss: In Britain people are getting “de-baptized.” I find this actually sort of humorous. I understand that some people don’t believe in God anymore, but I’m unsure as to why it’s a huge deal if you were baptized as a kid. Most people would understand. But what gets me is this:
Michael Evans, 66, branded baptising children as “a form of child abuse” — and said that when he complained to the church where he was christened he was told to contact the European Court of Human Rights.
How, in any way, is sharing your faith with your children child abuse? Yes, we get it, you don’t go to church anymore, but how has this scarred you for life? Now I’m personally against child baptism, but that’s beside the point. This just trivializes actual abuse in a lame attempt to complain about what they wish hadn’t happened to them. Stuff you don’t like happens all the time. It’s called life, not abuse.

Popcrunch posted a list of creepy TV characters, which in retrospect I agree with (at least for the shows I watched). Although at the time I watched these shows, these were the characters I liked. Except the last one. He was always creepy to me.

And now on to things about me.
I want these. I can’t see paying $100+ for a pair of shoes, but I want them so hard it sort of hurts my heart.
I am still addicted to This Is Why You’re Fat, but I think we have a winner here.
I went to California last week, and posted some pictures to my new Flickr account. I’ll be posting some photos of the ocean within the next few days.
Also, comments make me a very happy person. A happy person indeed.
