SOPA is a big fucking boulder on a small fucking cliff.

Christmas with the ‘010ers tonight, and of course Flash. Makes me miss the everloving shit out of them, and all those crazy nights at stock (note the cowboy hat and the pigtails. Costume night=class), and road trips to nowhere, and spray painting the town, and throwing tv’s off bridges (eh-hem, what?), and trying to get Emma to stopmakingoutwithRobalreadyfortheloveofJesus, and pissing off Kevin, and not having the time to think about life, and
fuck i miss them.
