This woman today brought 8 buggies filled with groceries. When I
asked her why she needed so much food, she said, "I want to be ready
for the war."
I said, "what war?" Maybe she knows something I don't, who knows?
"The war that will start with the Y2K!"
Oddly she had bought only one pack of toilet paper.

1. Editorial
By CoN Staff
ISSUE 2 ALREADY pollutes our minds and stands as a milepost of time
flying by us. Just a few more days and we'll be already in February
wondering where the days went.
Welcome to yet another issue of CoN. This issue is substantially
long, and dedicated to washrooms and the like. We pray you will be
pleased by it.
Our first e-mail arrives from Paul Cobbs:
> Okay, how's this (remember, I'm an engineer and not a writer
> for a REASON)?
>
> You know, I've been wondering. The good folks at Capital of
> Nasty are always carping on us to contribute, or just send
> email with our reactions to their publication. And do we? No.
> Why not? Why is it always take, take, take? Why can't we ever
> give? My guess is that nobody bothers to read the stuff. We all
> just get the issue and throw it in the trash. Why don't we
> unsubscribe? I guess we just like throwing unread mail in our
> trash cans.
> Maybe it's some sort of a wicked pleasure. We think to ourselves,
> "Heh, they want me to read this, but I'm not GOING to. I'll show
> them." Man, if that's our attitude, it must suck to be the
> contributors and editors. Maybe someday I'll actually read one of
> these things, and then maybe I'll have something to say and I can
> contribute. That would sure suprise them. I can hear it now:
> "What! a reader that actually READS this stuff?"
I THANK those that don't read CoN and don't bother unsubscribing, for
protecting my fragile ego with these high numbers.
Motie2 was devastated:
> NO AWARD THIS WEEK? I'M DEVASTATED.
Unfortunately, I only noticed I had missed a testicle after the issue
was sent. I guess it is useless to go through it a few times, if when
I send it out, it contains more errors than before.
And lastly, I'll leave you with a tale from Garrett Winters, who not
only has a Y2K compatible car, but also brought some shine to my life
by telling me that he read "The Last Dinosaur".
> Greetings
> long time reader first time responder ( usually because it is
> sometimes a few weeks after publication that I get to read, so that
> is why I probably didn't respond to the survey) and I thought I
> would at least get your readership into double figures :)
> The thing that gets me writing is the above piece about the size of
> WA in Australia, which though I never did see first hand I did get
> a feel of what it must be like after a trip up the center of Oz from
> Melbourne about 13 years ago. Myself and two mates ( all around 18
> or 19) decided to drive from Melbourne to Adelaide, Alice Springs

> south and home.
> In total I think we drove 14000 km in 7 full days of driving

> I have ever seen. Imagine Ayers Rock sitting out in the middle of

> I will always remember it ( including our unfortunate detention in

Our next issue of CoN will deal with Phylosophy. Until then, enjoy
this issue which, just for the record, is almost as long as "The Last
Dinosaur".

2. Public Washrooms.
By IMPROV
I've always had an aversion to bathroom humour, not excessive
swearing... but jokes that appeal to the lowest common denominator...
you know: farting... unnatural body secretions... shit... piss...
menstrual flow (my apologies to YM Magazine, but.. [I think it's
called] "say anything" is the furthest thing from entertainment I've
ever encountered)... snot... and so on and so forth.
But I guess this whole issue is bathroom humour... assuming there are
some strange people who find this humorous.
I'm sure that the other articles will talk about doing weird things in
the wonderful public porcelain world, everything from merely using
them to fornicating in them will no doubt be covered. And
inevitably, the subject of the uncleanness of them will be examined
closely... but I will give you a truly in depth look into this deep
realm... for I was once a maintenance worker... Yes I was a JANITOR!!!
(insert horn fan fare:"Buhmp Buhmp Buh Benhhhh" )
I cleaned public washrooms in a mall for almost four years. And did I
ever learn to respect and appreciate many things. But more
importantly I learned to hate every single person on this God forsaken
shit hole we call earth!!
We'll start with the men's room: (if memory serves me right) 4
urinals, 3 stalls, and 4 sinks. Thank whatever-you-may-be-praising-
at-time-of-publication for air dryers!
By the way those guys who take the time to scratch off every other
word on the air dryer so it reads: Shake it, rub knob gently... are
really really funny! Although if you need instructions to operate a
hand dryer, you might want to empty your drool cup first.
Back to the cleaning... we used this foaming cleaner called `Kilbac'.
Whenever you applied to a surface it would foam up, you'd leave it for
a minute and then wipe it clean. The more bacteria, the more it
foamed. Let's just say when I covered those toilet seats, it looked
like I could cross country ski across the room. But over all, the
men's room wasn't that bad... compared to the women's washroom, it was
paradise!
Women call us pigs... us being men of course... they call us dogs...
the dogs I can understand because there are a few men who do sleep
around much like dogs. BUT the whole pig thing annoys me. Gentlemen,
the next time your significant other, sister, mother or female
companion calls you a pig... take them to the nearest mall or even a
bar, and make them spend some quality time in that filth they call a
restroom. My god it's disgusting.
I now know why women go to the washroom in pairs, it's so one of them
can defecate on the floor, while the other stands guard. It's no fun
being a vandal all by yourself, don't ya know?
I won't even go into detail what I've seen... okay just a little...
shit on the seats, shit under the seats... shit on the wall, and I'm
not talkin' a little dab, I'm talking some freak wiped their ass on
the tiled wall!!
Now maybe on some web site out there that's a big hit but not to this
guy... And of course feminine protection thrown, left and stuck to
many places that clearly had no menstrual cycle. I don't think a
mirror has its period... but someone else had one and thought the
mirror was missing out.
So please ladies, next time you're in a public washroom don't do
anything rash... no matter how much you hate men... oh yeah, and guys
lift the freakin' seat.

3. Gretchen's Rhapsody
(Random Reminisces of Gretchen's Gourmet Grille)
By Jason MacIsaac
Gretchen had a box for comment cards. You know the drill. Did you
get efficient service? Was your food nice and hot? Was your food
nice and hot even though you ordered ice cream? Did the server have
sex with your spouse in the washroom? How was it?
I know what you're thinking. Nobody ever filled them out, right?
Wrong. Lots of people filled them out, and the majority of them even
had useful criticism on them. Because of this, we stopped putting
them on tables.
When we did have them though, I used to write them out and stuff them
into the comments box. Instead of any commentary about the restaurant
though, I would talk about how I really enjoyed the poems of W.B.
Yeats and compare them to Tennyson (once my friend who was an engineer
put a complex math formula on one). Sometimes I would just write pure
psychedelia. Stuff like "The Pink Aardvark tells me stories. I like
the Pink Aardvark. The Green Elf pinches my toes. I don't like the
green elf." I rarely signed these things. I didn't have to. One of
the managers once came up to me and asked "Jason, why do you waste
time by writing these things?" To which I said defensively "Good
literature is never a waste of time! Savages."
Once, I wrote an entire song, but not on a comment card. A little
background:
Being a diner, Gretchen's had a jukebox. One of the songs on this
jukebox was Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen. I used to like that song.
Naturally, working their night after night, you heard a lot of songs
on the jukebox over and over again. Servers would groan when they
realized a song they liked was on the jukebox, because by the end of
the shift they would hate it, having heard it 2000 times.
But there was an additional complex. Bohemian Rhapsody was added to
the jukebox in 1992.
Shortly after the movie Wayne's World came out.
Oh yeah.
Every bloody teenbopper in the place just had to recreate the scene in
the movie where Wayne and his pals head bang along to that song.
By the way, I have notarised court documents that prove that I was
listening to Queen in 1984, the year Highlander came out (Ah, Who
Wants to Live Forever, One Year of Love). So those albums in my music
collection are from a band wagon I jumped onto long ago, all right?
I digress.
One night, after hearing that song for the 6 billionth time, I
snapped, and I wrote my own version of the lyrics. I typed it up on
my handy Atari 520 ST (oh Atari, where did we go so wrong?) and put it
in the comments box. It was discovered later that night, after the
restaurant was closed. The staff read it, then went over to the
jukebox, selected Bohemian Rhapsody, and began to sing along to my
lyrics.
Here they are.
Gretchen's Rhapsody
Sung to the tune of Bohemian Rhapsody by Freddy Mercury. Copyright
1975 by whoever owns the rights to Queen songs now (it ain't me).
Is it close yet?
No it's just 7:30
Caught in a cheap section
No 15% for me
Open your wallets
Get out some cash and tip me...
Tip me.
I'm just a poor server (poor server)
I get no sympathy
But I am overworked, underpaid
Overtired, underfed
I don't care if there's a moth in your salad,
It doesn't really matter to me
To me.
Sandy,
Just killed a customer,
Put a gun against his head,
Pulled the trigger now he's dead
Sandy
My shift had just begun,
But already I've gone and blown someone away
Sandy
Didn't mean to piss you off,
If I'm not back again this time tomorrow,
I'll be in bed, be in bed,
Because sleep really matters...
It was real late
We were almost closed
Sat a table of fifteen
In my section that was clean
Piss off everybody
My section's closed.
Gotta leave you losers behind and get some sleep
Sandy, ooo-ooo
I don't wanna work
Sometimes wish I'd never been started at all
(Passionate yet morose guitar solo)
I see a little rugrat in Chicago Bulls' hat
Scaramouch, scaramouch, will you do the Fandango?
THE FOUNTAINEER WON'T LISTEN AND THE BUSSER'S DISAPPEARED!
Gallileo, Gallileo,
Gallileo, Gallileo
Gallileo figaro
Magnifico!-
I'm just a poor server, nobody tips me
He's just a poor server with a cheap section
Spare him his sanity, cut him, be free!
Easy come easy go, will you kids go home
Fuck you! Will not go home (Go home!)
Fuck you! Will not go home (Go home!)
Fuck you! Will not go home (Go home!)
Fuck you! Will not go home (Go home!)
No, no, no, no, no, no, no
Mama mia mama mia, mama mia go home
Table 120 left a five cent tip for me, for me, FOR ME
(Head bashin' guitar solo)
So you think you can sit in my section
And spit in my eye?
So you think you can order nothing
But Pepsi and french fries?
Whoaaa mallrat
Can't do this to me mallrat
Why don't you get out, why don't you get out
Why don't you get the fuck out of here?
Nothing really matters,
The only exception I can see
My paycheque really matters,
My paycheque really matters
To me.
Anyway the wind blows...

4. Random tales from the Restrooms
by Leandro Asnaghi-Nicastro
I think my fascination for public washrooms started one night when we
were all eating at Gretchen's Gourmet Grille. I didn't know Jason
then, but who knows, maybe he was the guy who served us and spit in my
food when I answered, "Yes," to his "fries or salad with that?" He
must've thought, "What a funny guy!" as he aimed at the coke I
ordered.
Being a good little boy, before eating, I went to wash my hands in
Gretchen's washroom. Now, washrooms are like a woman's new hair-do.
Your girlfriend just spent 5 hours at the hairdresser's, got some
fancy hair-style, curls, a cut and the rest, and comes back home, but
doesn't say anything. She expects you to notice and gets mad if you
don't. It's like a clean washroom. You enter, you use it, and you
leave. You don't notice it's clean. You expect it to look clean,
much like your girlfriend's hair: it looks good. So, if it looks
good, you don't sit there and examine it. Nothing particularly
outrageous was able to strike me in that limited nanosecond I glanced
at her and acknowledged her presence, much like a clean washroom.
But Gretechen's washrooms were not just dirty. They were beyond the
definition of "incredibly filthy". The walls might've been painted at
one time, but they were a heterogeneous shade of gray. The sinks had
adopted their own livery from a faded creamy white to streaks of
yellow-reddish rust. The faucets had lost their chrome, and the less
said about the urinals, the better. I'll just say that Gretchen's
toilets probably didn't even know what Javex was.
It's a shame that the English language, for as beautiful as is, lacks
some colourful definitions I have learned over-seas, in Rome to be
exact. You see, in Roman dialect, there are two definitions for
washroom. One is BAGNO. Literally it means "bath". It is usually
used for washrooms which follow a certain standard of hygiene and are
usable without the risk of getting fifteen randomly placed diseases,
just because you touched the tap. The other definition is CESSO
(pronounced something like "CHESS-OH!"). Cesso too stands for
"bathroom", but it is used to warn a user about to use the facilities,
from one that has just arrived from them, in what state they are.
When you are informed that "It's a CESSO", you know it's not going to
be pretty.
I think that if I had ever needed a standard for which to judge all
CESSOs I had finally found one. Not even the toilet in Trainspotting
looked this bad.
The worse part is that the two people in front of me who finished
relieving themselves of their bladder expansion, just went out without
washing their hands. I sat there looking at the door. It's amazing--
and it's not just Gretchen's--how you have to push a washroom's door
to get in, which you can do, say, with your foot. But you have to
pull on the handle, the same handle touched by zillions of guys who
didn't wash their hands, to get out.
At this point you can either look for some toilet paper to help you in
the difficult task or, since usually there is never toilet paper in
places such as this, to wait patiently for someone to come in.
Not too long ago it was my friend, our respective girlfriends, and me,
all sitting at this restaurant after watching some movie. My friend's
girlfriend looked at mine and said, "I'm going to the washroom, want
to come with me?" and off they went. They didn't reappear but 20
minutes later giggling together like old friends (they had known each
other less than 3 hours, if you count the time spent in the movie
theatre).
What the hell did they do in that washroom? Women seem to use
restrooms as social lounges. Men in a restroom will never speak a
word to each other. "Dan, I'm going to the washroom to take a leak.
Interested in joining me?" will never happen. I go and I come back in
the span of maybe 5 minutes. We go in, pull the zipper down, stare
straight ahead, observing with minuscule and painful detail all the
grooves that hold those tiny little tiles against the walls, pull the
zipper back up, ouch, leave.
In school washrooms were lotsa fun. Beside a large variety of phone
numbers I could collect of easy girls, it seemed much like some
propaganda room during the second world war: this gang will kick that
gang's ass, so and so is a clown, comments on professors, or that the
washroom belonged to the Beanery Gang. What gang in their right mind
would want a school washroom as part of their territory? And of
course, how can we forget all the drawings of naked women in the
stall's walls? Actually, drawing refers to something remotely
artistic. Sometimes it took a good five minutes to figure out that
the scribble in front of me was that of a headless woman, with no feet
or hands, but a giant vagina and breasts. Whatever turns you on, I
guess.
But the thing that really got to me was the hand-written scribble
above the urinal: "Don't look here, the joke is in your hand". And
since this funny clown didn't want to give a chance to anyone, he
wrote it on every urinal and every toilet of every washroom of every
floor. I wonder if his bladder exploded after a while...
-------------------------------------------
5. Restroom Etiquette
submitted by Carl Ma a long long time ago.
Men should ace this test ... women may have a little difficulty.
There IS a code of Restroom Etiquette" that MUST be followed.
===============================================
The following is the urinal configuration in a sample men's room.
An X above the number will indicate "in use."
(Sample):
| | | x | | | x | (Indicates that urinals 3 and 6
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | are occupied.)
-------------------------
You are to identify correctly, based on urinal etiquette, at which
stall you are to stand. Good luck!
--------------------
Easy Section
--------------------
1.)
| | x | | x | | | (Urinals 2 and 4 occupied.)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------
Your choice: ___
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 6
It's the ONLY one to go to and every guy instinctively knows this.
===============================================
2.)
| x | | | | | | (Urinal 1 occupied.)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------
Your choice: ___
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 6
Stall 5 is acceptable, but you run a greater risk of being next to
someone who arrives later.
===============================================
-------------------------
Kind of tricky Section:
-------------------------
3.)
| | | | | | | (empty)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
--------------------------
Your choice: __
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 1 or 6
You are tacitly saying, "I don't want anyone next to me."
===============================================
4.)
| | x | | x | | x | (2, 4 and 6 occupied)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------
Your choice: ___
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 1
You're stuck being next to at least ONE guy, so you minimize the
impact and get a wall on your left. NEVER go between TWO guys if you
can help it. Exceptions to this are stadium restrooms where the herd
thunders in.
===============================================
-----------------------------------------------
Subtle, tricky, but important to know Section
-----------------------------------------------
5.)
| | x | | | x | x | (2, 5 and 6 occupied)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------
Your choice: __
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: 4
Believe it or not, 1 and 3 "couples" you with the guy in stall 2. And
we wouldn't want THAT now, would we?
This differs from question 4 in such a subtle way that the nuances
cannot be explained. Suffice to say, only we men would understand!
===============================================
-----------------------------
VERY tricky indeed Section
-----------------------------
6.)
| x | x | | | x | x | (1, 2, 5 and 6 occupied)
| 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 |
-------------------------
Your choice: ___
-----------------------------------------------------------------
Correct answer: NONE!
You go to the mirror and pretend to comb your hair or straighten a tie
until the urinals "open up" a bit more. If you have to go REAL, REAL
BAD, for god's sake! ... use a doored stall.
===============================================
Other parts of the Unwritten Code of the Urinals:
-- NO Talking, unless it's a good friend... but even then, keep it
terse and unemotional. This ain't no clubhouse.
-- I don't think I need to tell you, absolutely NO touching of anyone
other than yourself. A touch of another's elbow is of the highest
offence.
-- NO Singing. Period.
-- Glances are for purposes of acknowledgement only..."Yeah, I see you
there. I will not look again".

6. Prince of Egypt
by Jason MacIsaac and Leandro Asnaghi-Nicastro
So the movie starts. I think. It's hard to say at this point in
time, as I think the movie started twice halfway, but maybe it's just
me who got confused. Or was that Moses' dream? Isn't it amazing
though? I mean, these guys didn't need the horoscope on the paper to
figure out their day. They just passed out in some room that had some
significance and BOOM, there lies the truth. I wonder why I keep
dreaming of naked Chipmunks.
Yeah, and at one point the artwork attacked Moses. After awhile, it
began attacking me and Leandro. But after we threatened them with
movie nachos, they ran away.
The President of the American Dental Association gave the artwork a
stern talking to, and then advised us both to invest in oil stocks.
Then he grew wings and flew away. If I had any money, I would have
taken his advice. Now that I think about it, it's quite weird that he
flew away? I mean, he would have had to use the theatre doors anyway,
so why didn't he just walk?
I guess the movie was trying to find it's last grip on the kids in the
theatre. Cute looking camels, anally sodomized goats and the rest, it
all looked as if it was some loveable cuddlable child movie. But
there were no kids anywhere to be seen (I didn't hear anyone cry) and
the rest of us were sitting there, with a look on our faces that
spelled "I am not doing that stuff again". No. I think that was
before that. I think I thought "I can't believe it I spent .. shit,
how much did I spend? I don't remember. Well, half of usual than I
would spend, since today is Poverty Tuesday."
It is astonishing to see how Moses realizes he's not Egyptian. One
look in the mirror could've done it for me. But apparentely, no
matter how much curly hair he has on his face, how little he resembles
his parents, or perhaps even the fact that he is the only kid not
wearing any make up or with the typical Egyptian style hair-do, it
takes some vagabond strange woman on the street to point it out to
him. Talk about brilliance.
I remember quite clearly that Jeff Goldblum was in this movie, but
didn't get eaten by a velicoraptor. I consider this to be a failing
of the movie. In fact, I think all movies that don't show Jeff
Goldblum getting eaten by dinosaurs have failings.
The Powers of God are shown through this entire movie. Some girl
dressed in blue, with a look in her eyes that could mean trouble for
anyone's happy sacks, quickly appears and disappears in the movie,
though nobody is sure why she's there. Everyone is laughing. My head
is hardly able to keep track of the frames. I knew though that the
girl would hold some significant part in Moses' life, but it occurred
to me only later, when the movie was over. Somehow though, they think
it's good to abuse a girl and attempt to have sex with her, as it will
ensure you, later on in life, a cool bath and of course, sex.
Special mention must go to the songs. The Pharaoh's advisers do a
song called "You're Playing With the Big Boys Now" in celebration of
the Egyptian Gods. Exorcist star Linda Blair tap-dances to "Lullaby
of Broadway." At one point, lots of children begin singing in Hebrew.
A goat begins reciting the opening act of Richard the Third while a
man slaps himself with a sea bass. I may have imagined some of this,
but I can't remember which parts.
The Pharaoh had three advisers, with the voices of Steve Martin,
Martin Short, and Edward Melnish. It is strange they were able to do
this, because I just made that last name up.
"So" he says "you are like, you know, God?" and the burning bush--or
something--starts having a major fit over Moses. Jesus Christ, relax!
Okay, so you are God, but don't you think someone would be a little
sceptical if a burning bush started talking to them and making wave
effects on the sand? I would. Then again, I'd probably think I'm
making it up, like, I am not really here watching this.
At one point Leandro melted into the screen. Exodus, Chapter 3, verse
6-10, I think.
"BEHOLD...the power of God..."
Moses raises the staff while the crowd watches in mystified silence.
Suddenly, Moses slams a clip in the staff, and starts gunning
everybody down.
And then they parted the Red Sea. Big deal. I did that on my way
over here. Twice. And I didn't even have a staff. Honest.
They took a few liberties with the story. I don't recall the bible
making any mention of the Teletubbies.
When the movie ended, the penguin told us to (I did mention the
penguin before, didn't I) watch our step as we left the theatre.
Apparently they had a problem with people accidentally walking up the
walls. The penguin said he hated that, because it was a real bitch
cleaning the footprints off the ceiling.

7. The Golden Globes (and who's going to Hell follow-up)
by Jeff Wright
Well, I don't watch much tv so I won't comment on any of the tv
awards. How's that?
The Good (this is not a comment following the rhetorical question
above, it is a heading)
-Jack Nicholson's drunken stupor:
How damn funny was it to watch a drunk Jack react to the clips
from his films?
The best was watching him make scary faces during the Shining
clip.
Plus, his speech with misused words, and goofy faces was a riot.
Probably the highlight of the show.
(Before we go onto the next one, who else thinks Tom Hanks was tanked
too?)
-Sean Connery announcing the last award of the night.
Does it get much sweeter?
A perfect closer. They should have Connery present every award
at a show one year.
-Angelina Joli.
I spoke to soon above. It does get much sweeter, in the form of
Miss Joli.
Who didn't get that "YES! She can still be mine!" feeling when
she said that the guy she was hugging and kissing was her brother?
WHO? Except maybe guys who are a bit smarter than me and know to be
afraid of John Voight.
-Hearing Philip Glass speak.
Nuff said.
The Bad (Heading #2)
-Antonio being robbed for Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy.
I haven't seen Zorro, but Antonio RULES!!!!!!!!!!
(hehehe)
-Lack (or shortage) of nominations for Happiness, Your Friends And
Neighbors, and American History X.
Three of the best films of the year almost completely snuffed
other than Happiness' screenplay nomination.
Ed Norton better not be forgotten at the Oscars cuz he deserves
that Best Actor statue.
And where was Jason Patric's nomination? Ah, forget it I could
go on and on about what deserves nominations from these films, so I
won't.
-Jim Carrey winning Best Actor in a Drama.
I haven't seen Gods And Monsters yet, but I'm going to today.
From what I've heard Ian McKellan was a shoo in, but then again Ed
Norton wasn't nominated.
I would have preferred any one of the other actors to have won.
Carrey's performance is good, but that's it. It's nowhere close to
award worthiness (so it's not a word, sue me).
-Ed Harris winning Best Supporting Actor in a Drama, and connected,
Billy Bob Thornton being robbed of that very same award.
BBT is absolutely fantastic in A Simple Plan and to not give him
the award is just plain stupid. Especially by giving it to Ed Harris
who is in the same boat as Carrey as far as how good his performance
was.
THE END OF GOLDEN GLOBES PIECE
START OF WHO'S GOING TO HELL PIECE
Hey y'all. Not many of you responded to my little
questionnaire. But those of you who did (save one person) are going
to be fine just as long as you continue your streaks of not killing,
raping, or diddling any kids. Congratulations!!!
Now onto the one reader of CoN who's going to Hell.
Mr. Stiff.
Sadly you are going to Hell when you die.
Here are Mr. Stiff's answers followed by my responses to
them(parts of my replies may not make sense since some of them contain
or are based on personal knowledge of Mr. Stiff. For that I
appologize):
1. i fucked your mom, so i guess that makes me hetrosexual. well it
probably makes me the term the use for people who fuck animals, beasty
whatever
Well isn't that pleasant? If this is your attempt at getting
back at me for whatever I did to your mother, then I'm sorry. To tell
you the truth, I don't even remember it; it was so long ago.
If you would like for us to meet somewhere and discuss this,
then by all means call me. It's on your mom's speed dial.
As far as my mother being an animal, well that's just not nice.
I let my mother read your e-mail and she's told me that she had sex
with you once. I was upset, but she assured me that because of this
message, you and her are over. She also made some comment about small
genitals, as I was leaving (I didn't catch it though).
2. white, the way it should be.
White? Yes, but I was asking what racial background you have.
White is not a race. Since I know you Mr. Stiff, you and I both know
that you're of Jewish decent.
No this isn't why you're going to Hell. Your racist statement
of "the way it should be" though did get you a couple of going to Hell
points.
3. i killed you brothers and sisters. now for the rest of your
family. and i rapped your sister, but hell, we all know she
deserved it. well that's what your dad told me.
I have no brothers, only a sister. Therefore I think you may
have confused my family with yours (not sure if your brother is a
brother or a sister). Raping your brother isn't really something you
should be proud of, nor should you out your father by telling the
world that he's done the same.
Oh, just so you know. Having sex with your brother is what's
sending you to Hell. That and that other thing. You know what I'm
talking about.
