  • Uncyclopedia Rules!

    I especially like the entry on Harry Potter. It actually makes sense (for History ppl)!

    Much discussion has exposed JK Rowling as an obvious Marxist, attempting to pollute the minds of our youth with Communist propaganda. The "pure-blood" Slytherins represent the aristocracy, who believe that "magic" (i.e. capital) should be in the hands of a privileged elite. The "clever" Ravenclaws represent the bourgeoisie, who collude with the aristocracy in the suppression of the petty-bourgeois Hufflepuffs and the proletarian house-elves. The brave Gryffindors (who wear red Quidditch robes) and Dumbledore's Army represent the Red Army, the true army of the proletariat.

    Dumbledore, with his voluminous white beard, obviously stands for Karl Marx, while Harry Potter's glasses and untidy black hair make him identical to Leon Trotsky. Harry's lightning-bolt scar is in reference to the fatal head wound inflicted on Trotsky by Ramón Mercader with an ice pick. Harry survives this attack, just as the Totskyist ideal has survived in Rowling's twisted Commie mind. The above is all true.

    Back to wasting time.

  • Waiting

    No one updates their Xangas anymore, thanks to Facebook.  I can't seem to abandon this place because a large part of my IB/Pre-IB memories are stored here.  Where did all the good times go?

    Everyone's making their ways back from camp/summer programs/tours/internships and heading into college-prep gear.  I would too, if those damn libraries would give me my books.  I have one week to do my extended essay, then two weeks of work.  This feels like such a pointless and anxious summer.

    Oh whatever, I don't feel like blogging now, too depressing.

    It's only the calm before the storm.
