Come on guys, this is silly. Yes, my family when I was a kid was doing well. It's wasn't upper crust, but we were comfortable. It sort of fell apart when my father took ill in my teen-aged years. I, currently at 53 years old, make approximately half of the median income of Californians and am living in an apartment. Plants know this, so if his rage is not feigned and just a game is either out of his mind or is just mad that his youth was so difficult while mine was so cushy. That was a long time ago. So while he was dumpster diving, I was getting bucked off of a pony that I got for Christmas. That doesn't make me a yuppie. It's not my fault that the loser was born on the wrong side of the track.

Actually I didn't know about the burning house bit ..... doesn't matter though because PMS is so unremittingly an asshole. For instance, on the radio thing, that was uber-yuppie-prickness, and a normal person would have said something like "Oops, sorry, didn't realize that" and that would be the end of it. But PMS sort of has this entitled assholery thing that goes down to the bone.

No wonder Monte left, it's not even the fly-through nutballs like Raph that are annoying, they're almost cute in a way, but the professional assholes like PMS that just stay and stay and stay....

I think this is what's going on:

I've actually made a conscious effort to be more mellow lately, but I think what has happened is it's sunk in that I have little to no financial means right now. In some cultures this may not matter a bit, but this is the US. In the US you are your wallet - you may not be your fucking khakis, but you ARE the wallet in their pocket.

So, those who believe most deeply in the "U are what U earn" religion are circling; theye smell blood.

And California school teachers make a fucking fortune.

Tell us PMS, do you whip the servants on Wednesday?

Fucktard.

You had a pony ? Well , well , well .....so the truth finally comes out . Here all this time I thought you were a working stiff like the rest of us , my hat's off to you PMS , you certainly had me fooled . Your bourgoius attitude of condescension and casual deception has finally been revealed . Enjoy the sunset from your clifftop retreat in Malibu tonight PMS ? Yeah.... I bet you did.

Sounds a little silly don't it Plants ?

I'd hire you on Tuesday. Just for the fun of it. But don't expect to be paid. Come on, you can't be that lame.
