I love neo-hippies. They're cute and cuddly.

All I ever wanted was to be a hippie: I was too young for the first round and now I'm too old for the second round.

Freakin' 80s.

You're an honorary hippie, infinite monkey. Peace!

"You do realize that *everyone* is dependent of the hands of others, correct? Being self-employed does not rid of this."

I shop at the grocery not because I must, but only 'cause it's convenient.

That I use conveniences is not synonymous with being 'dependent' on them.

And: I didn't say I was 'self-employed' (as in, I work for myself but still rely on the community to live); I said 'I self-employ'...I employ (use) myself (in making a living, providing for myself, taking care of 'me', etc.).

I'm ready for the Zombie Apocalypse or anything else coming down the pike, including the (unlikely) possibility 'occupancy' might actually result in 'communitarian heaven' (heaven with a politburo)...

I know I'll survive the zombie apocalypse. I've said before I have a comedy routine all ready. I'll have the zombies rolling around and laughing so hard, they'll make me their queen.

edit: actually, only 19 more days until the aliens take me home.

"Everyone likes to think they are ready for the Zombie Apocalypse..."

Insofar as I can tell: no one thinks they'll survive...they'd like to, would like a miracle to sweep 'em up and bed them and feed them chocolates (like any good utopian), but none believe they'll actually survive.

#

"...99.99% of the population will succumb."

Of course! Absolutely!

#

"What makes you think you are so special that you'll be part of the 0.01%?"

'Cause I'm 'me'...

#

"And why would you want to be?"

Living/autonomy in Hell is preferable to the calm of the grave.

##

"I know I'll survive the zombie apocalypse..."

Yes, you will.

"actually, only 19 more days until the aliens take me home."

Well, now you're just being silly...

Which is more likely, aliens or zombies?
