This is... well, I will let you be the judges of this. It stars a very powerful stereotype.

Translation:
While Mie is waiting, she grabs an "Abekatte" hard candy from "Nørregade".
She feels the taste of liquorice, chili and sweetness bloom in her mouth and acidentally smiles a bit.
"FUCK!" she thinks. "I hope no one saw that!"
She crunches it so she can return to her black outlook on life as fast as possible.
The taste explodes. "FUCK!" she thinks. "Now I am smiling again! FUCK! It is so annoying to be happy! ... but it's also a bit nice."

So.. about last night.

I got to bed about 1.30am, and felt that something wasn't quite right. When I rolled over, I saw that the door to my bedroom was open slightly.. I always close it before sleeping. I guessed that I had just forgotten to close it, and as I was about to get out of bed to close it I remembered distinctly that I *had* actually closed the door before going to bed.

That's when I realised that Samara (from The Ring) was, in fact, under my bed...

I post about it on Facebook and receive (what I now see as amusing and cute, but SO wasn't helpful at the time) a message from Jonathan telling me that he's under my bed and I'm ok because Samara isn't there with him.. and that he's sorry for leaving the door open, but he had to go and pee..

I messaged Ulf and asked him to tell me that there wasn't anything under my bed. He messaged back with "I could tell you that, but really, I can't know. I'm afraid you'll have to look."

I was about to hold my phone under the bed and take a picture to send to him.. but that would be the perfect plot to a horror story - girl sends picture and receives the reply "GET OUT OF THE HOUSE NOW!", thinks that boy is joking and checks the picture she sent... just as the picture loads on her phone, Samara's hand strikes out and grabs her wrist, dragging her into the darkness under the bed..

No.. I'm not going to take a picture to send. I'm not going to be *that* girl.

After about an hour of arguing with myself I realise that Ulf is right. I have to look.. so, I lean over the edge of the bed and peer underneath... TO SEE A PAIR OF EYES PEERING BACK AT ME!!

Fucking cat..

...cue acute anxiety attack.

I woke up last night during my sleep with severe pain in my face - I had no idea why.
Turns out I had pulled on the charger cable of my phone, pulled my phone off the windowsill and managed to hit myself on my cheekbone. Not my cheek. My bloody cheekbone. Ow.

TR - I'm ok, thank you. I told Ulf that I was going to mail him the cat.. he said he's refusing to pick it up at the post office. :|

Are you ok? How is your cheek?

I understand him all too well - I wouldn't want to pick up a demon cat either.
My cheek is sore with a lovely pink mark on it. Damned phone xD Thanks for asking :3
Hey, speaking of that girl from The Ring...

The Who Needs Feminism tumblr is full of posts. While a mouse hover over "Where We Stand" says "COMING SOON!"

Pretty much a summation of Western Feminism, its taking a stand, for everything, for vaginas. Rationality.. "COMING SOON!"

Because they haven't explained yet that they don't want to have an "official" feminism that might be exclusionary but allow feminist to define their movements as they see fit, since the category of "woman" is so broad and deals with intersections of class, race, ability, religion, genderfluidity and sexuality.

Because it couldn't be that "Where We Stand" might be highlighting the impact of the Who Needs Feminism campaign itself and needs time since its a very new project.

Please critique "Western Feminism" as if it exists as a singularity more, dude. We womenfolk need mansplaination.

Allowing anyone to define their movement as a means for special legal privileges and male shaming.

Like a woman needs time before she plans a surprise divorce to steal away a man's kids, money, and with a higher likelihood for suicide post-divorce-- his sanity. How egalitarian.

Oh, I won't stop with just Western Feminism. I'm like a modern asshole dandy, and if I make enough witty, spot-on generalizations I figure I can raise Oscar Wilde from the dead. Also, last year you told me to fuck off. I've never made a personal attack on you, probably because I respect your gender more than you respect mine.

Dude they need feminism because their sense of self-worth is apparently challenged by an 8 year old at a race. Have some freaking compassion you damn patriarch

Fellas, bottle that shit and send it to me. I'm telling you, it's delicious. I tried my own, but they don't work. Maybe later we can exchange survivor stories and drink each other's tears?

I sliced my knee open at work.. when I got home it was still bleeding and the wound was gaping, so instead of spending hours sitting in an ED I sutured it myself.

...like a boss.
