**vibrotronica** ’s brush with shittyness:

My estranged, bastard asshole father was golfing buddies with John Anderson of “Swingin’” fame. I hated that song before I found out about my sperm donor’s association with the person responsible for it. After I found out about it, my hatred burned with the light of a thousand other people’s hatreds that burned with the light of a thousand suns.

So sorry **vibrotronica** to call back up bad thoughts. I’ll hate him for you too if you’d like so you can add another thousand suns. Actually, I’m pretty darn hateful so you might even tack on another 7 thou if you catch me at a bad time.

Your mother is my lover  
And she has been since the spring  
I can’t believe it started  
When she squeezed my ding-a-ling  
Just a swingin’…
