I hate memes

But I'll let this one ride, if for no other reason than I glommed it off one of my favourite people.

My journal is called _____ because _____.
My subtitle is _____ because _____.
My friends page is called _____ because _____.
My username is ____ because _____.
My default userpic is _____ because_____.


My journal is called "Yeah yeah. That Waider." because it seems like an appropriate answer to the obvious question. My subtitle is blank because to be honest I'd no idea you could set one. My friends page is called "They're Not Friends, Just People Who Can't Get Away From Me" because some days it feels like the truth. My username is waider because Motorola gave it to me in 1992 and I've become rather attached to it. My default userpic is Southpark-Waider because it's a reasonably recognisable rendition of me without being an actual photo.

I can't help feeling...

...that certain people (myself included, from time to time) fear that things will settle down in Iraq, because then You-Know-Who will be unbearably smug and trumpet the success of the methods used.

And that's just not going to be fun.

amen to that, brother

"The problem is that the Irish consumer still has low expectations. Because we came from such a poor, low base the Irish think that what they get is good enough. They do not like to complain and as a result the standard of service in many parts of the economy is low." (link)

Wow, so it's not just me being ranty.
