Personally, me and my children can't stand them. And that awful Grinch film with Jim Carrey is beyond hideous.
The Jim Carrey Grinch film is awful, but the original Grinch film narrated by Boris Karloff is a delight

As I said before...not a delight to me. I'm sorry.

Looking back at your list you're like the anti-me.

You're not a 9/11 Truther are you? That would make me very upset. 

I am not into overly specific Wikipedia articles. Stop wasting your life, Wikinerds!

Turn to the left.  Beep beep.

I'm wondering if the "not" page outpacing the other one says something about us. Tongue

Are we just cynical or something?

Wow, a conservative sociopath with a head full of conspiracy theories. But I like a little danger and you're not into dreadlocks, incense or emoticons so I might have a crush on you after all.

I"m about the furthest you can get from a conservative. Conservatives hate Anarchists more than Communists. I don't think I believe in any conspiracy theories either.

As you customised my list, kept the stuff you kept and called yourself the anti me, how could I not assume you weren't portraiting yourself as a gun right activist/global warning sceptic and truther who enjoyed massproduced crap, anarchy and marihuana? It reminded me of a Ted Kaczynski kind of conservative.

9/11 truther does not imply conspiracy theorist. But yes I am a gun activist, global warming skeptic, who enjoys marijuana, mass produced crap. I'm also an anarchist which is like a conservative's anti-matter.

A truther might not think of him-or herself as a conspiracy theorist, but everyone else thinks of you as one. Same goes for the "global warming scepisism". I've also met plenty of Marihuanasmoking conspiracy theorists, so it kind of makes sense. Nobody outside the US understands your gun right activism, and I've always associated it with your countries conservatives. But you seem to be a  more a complex fella who cherrypicks your extremes from the worst of both worlds. Where I live hardly no one ever gets killed, and we've never had a high school massacre. Because we don't have all these weapons lying around. Simple as that.

I have very little intrerest in the three first points, but the two last ones are pretty important. Its comforting to know that you're a very old man, as most gunswinging environmental sceptics are.

You are not nearly as comforted as I am.
In my lifetime I have seen each generation go a little farther downhill and I see no end to the decline.
When the entire system crashes, you and others like you will have to deal with the mess.
