[The STE]

I got a (promptly deleted) e-mail from some idiot saying it's "Self Injury Awareness" day. I didn't read the whole thing, since my brain cells were fighting for their lives making me delete it, but from the gist of it, it's a day where all these smelly emo hippies can go on their Sad Teens With Problems Nobody Gives A Shit About message boards and their livejournals and myspace and whatever weblog thing that's popular with the angsty teenage types, and post about how people should spread da word about how it's Self-Injury Awareness day. Then they can pat themselves on the back and delude themselves into thinking they're actually doing something and that this shit will actually solve some sort of problem. I was going to copy all the e-mail addresses she sent this e-mail to and send them all a message saying that having "awareness days" about something is what people do when they're too fucking stupid to think of any REAL solutions to anything and how they should go jerk off to their podcasts of Live 8 or something, but I'm far too lazy. Plus, I deleted the e-mail already.
