(that's the one with the flat-screen, full cable, 'puters, sodas, and whatnot that the Unwashed Masses cannot enter)
So I am in our break room at Job 2.71828182846, and a group of us are watching all the protests about all the ridiculous same-sex marriage shit. I say ridiculous because WHO IN THE FUCK CARES (in a governmental/legislative sense) WHO YOU HAVE SEX WITH OR MARRY (provided they may reasonably consent). Butsoanyway. We're watching this on teh cebbles and one of our little group (which includes a couple gays and one lesbian) start talking about a similar protest that's coming right here to Happy Valley this weekend-ish.
Because I am surrounded by friends, I raise my fist and shout, 'STONEWALL! STONEWALL! YEAH!!' because I'm a funny girl like that.
I get blank stares.
'Stonewall, Stonewall, ' says our lesbian, 'I don't get it; what's Stonewall?'
'Gott in himmel,' I reply, 'what's Stonewall? Do you kiss girls with that mouth?'
Sigh. Please. Chirrin. Read. I heard once somewhere that it's fundamental. Srsly. I also heard this thing about being doomed to repeat history, but I forget just how it goes...
