New US Passport Requirements!Follow

WTF!? There's no way I could fill one of these out. My first job was at 13, and the place is closed now, run by an old guy who retired and is probably dead now. Most of my after-school and summer time jobs are closed, or the business has moved suburbs. Even the university department I worked for during student years was shut down after my time.

Most of those above have numbers and addresses I don't know any more, and I haven't kept the old address books. Same for my old places of residence. God knows what my mother can remember or has kept address books of. The years around my birth were very chaotic, she moved a lot. I've moved around a bit myself. If I was estranged from my mother, instead of my father, I doubt I could answer any of the "mother" section. As it is she might be able to dig around for a sixth of the information.

The hospital I was born in? Closed, demolished, and a very fine shopping centre and office buildings built on the prime city block. My mother might be able to remember the name of her gynecologist when she had me, but not anyone else. He'd be dead now. All she's told me about my birth was that the nurses were nasty, and forced her to have a shower when she was in agony and couldn't cope with it. Also, she had to fight them to get them to leave me in the room with her during her stay, because it was still the bad old days of mid-20th century medicine.

Any religious ceremony for my birth likely involved some pagan rite with lots of drugs and group sex.

On the up side, you're Australian, aren't you?

I don't think Moe really cares what the outside world thinks of Americans. He's been pretty clear about that, so even raising the point was useless.

You don't filter him out as well do you? You really shouldn't just filter out the opinions that differ from yours.

Heck no, just Gbaji.

Gbaji longwinded was one thing, Gbaji longwindedly incoherently illogical was another thing. Totally infuriating.

I actually appreciate Moe and Totem for being coherent and mildly intelligent about their non-Aripyanfar paradigms.

Moe's an ******* and proud of it. You're not going to get him to consider the views of others. Ari, I expected more from.

On the lake of contrary opinions, Ari is but an oiled duck.

I can, because I know you feel guilt.

They aren't humorless, their humor is just very efficient.

Sounds like they want to be able to deny Obama a passport.

This is an assumption that people make that really should be addressed. Being dismissive is not evidence that I don't consider the views of others. Being an @#%^ is not evidence that I don't consider the views of others. In fact, I consider the views of others very carefully in every decision that I make and every position that I take. It would be foolish of me to cavalierly dismiss the world view and experience of others. To do so would severely limit my ability to make clear, well thought out, effective decisions.

I have simply come to the realization that most of you mother f'uckers are dumber than a pet rock and have nothing to offer an intelligent, coherent conversation, and, as such, the weight given your points of view is quite a bit lower than you may like.

EDIT: F'uck me. A good self aggrandizing rant is ruined when key words are omitted to make the coup de grace read like it was typed by a 6 year old with Down's Syndrome.

Yes, I should have added the caveat of "on this forum".
