I take offense at you Steve for thinking that Price is being serious.

But then again... If you serious, Price, I take offense at you being serious.

And I take offense at Brian for deliberately provoking me with a 
"Probability Sucks" background.

And I take offense at the BOB(t-blah) for posting such crap in the first 
place.  Give it up.  PC humor is generally not funny anymore, especially 
since the real thing is the funniest you're ever gonna get.  Did you copy 
that out of "Politically Correct Fairy Tales"? Because if you did, I take 
offense at your breaking the copyright law.  I take offense at the fact 
that you did not instead post something from "The Stinky Cheese Man".  
Now THAT'S a classic.  I like "The Really Ugly Duckling" (because I'm in 
a bitchy mood today I'll tell you how it ends -- the Really Ugly Duckling 
grows up to be a Really Ugly Duck.  The End.)

And since I feel left out, because I'm not taking offense at myself, I 
feel like writing that Of COURSE I'd love my parents less if there was no 
"link".  Blood is thicker than water.  And tastier too.  And more 
chock-full of nutrients.  All more's the reason to drop adopted parents 
like a hot potato and go searching for the birth parents who obviously 
didn't want me.  For of course there is a "biological parent love gene" 
that makes us love our biological parents (though I haven't figured out 
whether this includes a surrogate mother) and does not apply to anyone 
else, no matter how much love they've given nor how long they've raised 
one.  Yes, humans are no more than slaves to their genetic structure and 
all traits are built in.  So sorry, ugly people -- no matter what surgery 
you try, you'll still be ugly deep down inside.  And since all 
non-christians are going to burn in the hell-fires, we'd better put 
prayer in the school where our moral majority can win over the little 
heathen buggers.  

Hmm. I think that was enough.
I take offense at myself for writing such bullshit.


Now I feel better.  I'm lost without someone or something to take offense at.
