Fuck 'you'. Fuck 'me'. Fuck All and Nothing at all. some phantoms act upset. they think they are protesting. some 'want' to 'jump up and down'. in anger. ha ha! silly little piffling poopsies. just what 'words' do they believe, or believe 'themselves' to be? like numb numskulls who sacrifice their only being(the body) to save some jewels left inside a burning house, the will jump up to defend 'themselves', against all odds...for absolutely no good reason at all. it's actually the funniest damn thing. what words can get 'you' to jump up in anger and 'self-defence'? the baba knows he's not a 'word'. bobji could care less what words are slung. but it's interesting stuff to watch. and 99.99999% of the 'time' it all provides the best sport and only 'real' game there is.
