^ This is refreshing to hear, music phantom. I wish more people in the military would acknowledge they kill innocent people. I hate how the military rationalizes away such atrocities as somehow acceptable.

My tiny confession: in real life I call people idiots fairly frequently when I'm incensed by some idiotic thing I feel they do.

For example, when I see people going by at 75 mph on motorcycles and instead of helmets they are simply wearing bandanas on their heads, I might say, "Oh, look...they have on bandanas to try to catch their brains when they splatter all over the pavement after an accident! (Pause) Are these people IDIOTS?!?"

Then, if my child is listening, I say, "I'm sorry. I shouldn't call them idiots. No one is a complete idiot. It is just that this particular behavior they are doing is stupid."

But I really think they *are* idiots, and the malicious side of me half hopes their brains DO splatter on the ground.
