Folks, it's no secret
that I'm a skittish bloke. I feel no shame in admitting this. It
is what keeps me alive in the face of my overwhelming lack of common
sense. A generalized fear of everything around me is my Yin. The
complete absence of good judgement is my Yang.
Those around me see this
dichotomy as a frustrating character flaw. I see it as the source
of quirky charm.
As a rule, I'm generally
mistrustful and somewhat nervous about everything I come in contact
with. Some things, however, scare me in a special kind of way. You
know, it's that deep seated fear that leaves your stomach rolling
and your anus clenched tighter than…than…well, really, what's tighter
than a clenched anus?
It's these things that
I strongly believe are a danger to us all. Some are obvious. Some
are obscure. All have been carefully distilled through years of
abstract paranoia.
Below, is a complete
list of these frightful things. Find in it Wisdom. Be fairly warned.
Use it as you see fit. And keep this crap the hell away from me.
