Where the hell is my $113,000?
The most productive members of society have it.  Sorry.  :(

They won't let me be productive.

"They" in this case being you many negative moral, mental, and emotional traits.

I reject your attempt to set up a circle of judgment.

I think the "they", in this case is the bar association.  They don't let just anyone practice law.  At least in this country.  You know, I tried to warn Ide about this when he said he was going to law school.  I said, "Ide, you aren't going to be a lawyer.  They have laws against things like that".  And he respond "Fuck you, you goddamn psycho".  See, if had listened to me, he good be doing something useful.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

That's not true.  I'd have said "God damned."  I question the authenticity of your story.

Nope.

In any event, I'm not prohibited by any law from bar membership.  I chose not to join the SC Bar, because I don't want to live here anymore, and because I soured on the prospect of attorney practice, although at some point, somewhere else, I may seek bar admission.  You don't remember me telling you that?  Because that wasn't three years ago, that was last week.

Being that you've been applying for Federal jobs, obviously you have no serious intention of being productive.  :P

I've heard you wait tables beautifully.  You could go back to that, stick with your strengths.

How come hispanics make more than blacks when blacks have been living in the States forever while hispanics are recent inmigrants largely descriminated upon, including by blacks?

How come you could be naturalized as an American citizen and still be ignorant enough to think Hispanics in the US are just "recent immigrants?"
