And yet you create (presumably) horrific sound effects in video games?

Actually, now that I think about it, you might just be perfect for that as you could probably imagine much more horrific noises than a more aggressive individual could. I often think that people wouldn't behave like such fucks if they had a clue about what blood, guts, gore and pain were really all about.


That's the funny thing, I have no problem with blood and guts, I was a VERY clumsy child. They knew me by name at the local minor emergency clinic. It's the anger associated with the fight that I can't deal with.

But wait! Last night I actually remembered one time I (sorta kinda) told a guy off. I was maybe 16 or 17, and my period was late. Rather than involve my boyfriend at this point, I went with my best friend to the local Walgreens to buy a pregnancy test.

As we approached the counter, the clerk, who was in his early twenties, saw what I was purchasing and audibly snickered. I said quite loudly, "I'm glad you think it's funny that my stepfather raped me, shithead. You ought to be fired," looking pointedly at his manager. Then I stalked out looking like I was going to cry.

We managed to get the car doors shut before we cracked up laughing. My friend was unable to start the car for several minutes. I never did see that clerk again.
