Sectarian Violence Has To Stop


Every net feed I see, every headline I read, every teaser I hear...it's all about Sectarian Violence. Frankly, I'm sick of it. In this day and age, there is no reason in the world for sectarian violence. I like my cup of coffee just as hot as the next guy, but I'm not going to hit the poor girl if it doesn't burn my tongue. Just the other day my shirts came back from the cleaners heavily starched instead of lightly. Now from what I'm hearing in the news, this would have been the perfect time to just drop her with a godd, stiff right cross - but I want to be part of the solution, not part of the problem. Instead, I just made her take the shirts home to do them herself. She will learn. They are trainable. There is no need for violence. A friend of mine, a not so bright one at that, was trying to explain to me how every war that was ever fought is based on sectarian violence. I nodded my head and agreed with him, but c'mon. What, they had sectaries back in the day when Hannibal crossed the Alps? "Listen honey, I said 10,000 POUNDS of peanuts...POUNDS!". Give me a break. Oh, and I suppose William Wallace used one for what, to buy face paint and schedule orthodontic procedures for his band of freedom fighters? This guy probably doesn't even know the typewriter wasn't invented until 1829. Besides that, from what I hear, they prefer to be called Administrative Assistants these days. So, from this day forward, I ask that all Administrative Assistant Violence be stopped. With your help, we can rid the world of this ugly behavior.
