OK. I’ve had it. I have becomes so totally misanthropic, that I’ve decided to invoke the Black Arts to avenge myself on all Mankind. FOOLS! I’LL SHOW THEM ALL!!! BWA-HA-HA-HA-HA! So. TAKE THIS---- May you come in Second Place in a Klingon Karoke Contest. May Tammy Fae Baker get the Uncontrollable Hots for you. May Guinea Worms infesting your nether regions seem like an improvement in your life. Post your own curses here! ---

For some reason, I’m reminded of any Gary Larson cartoon dealing with Hell. “Wow, even the coffee is cold! They thought of _everything_!” “Welcome to heaven, here’s your harp.” vs. “Welcome to hell, here’s your accordion.” ---

That’s funny, I was reminded of a different Far Side. Three archeologists are gathered an open sarcophagus, and the mummy says, “Let’s see, a curse for you, a curse for you, and a curse for you.” May your toilet paper rip while you wipe, leaving you with a) crap under your nails and b) little balls of dirty TP tangled in your nether hairs. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Bosda Di’Chi of Tricor \* > May you never get laid again by anybody except Monica Lewinsky or Dr. Laura. Ya know, that’d probably be more sex then I’m getting right now anyway. May you be served undercooked airline food. May the effects in the next action movie you see not be very special. May you inadequately wipe and get an itchy ass. ---

Gaelic? Oooooh, Celtic curses…_grins evilly_ But seriously, the three worst curses I know: May you have to take an extended car ride with my mother…with her driving, no less. May your every dream come true. And my mother’s personal favorite: May you someday have beautiful children…AND MAY THEY ACT JUST LIKE YOU!!! (This one however, is well known to be the most EFFECTIVE curse ever uttered…don’t we, Moms?) ---

May the love of your life always be “just good friends” with you, and fall deeply in love with some unworthy son of a bitch who will make her life hell but she will love him only more for it.
