You Want A Reason To Be Sad And Wear Black Makeup? Try The Gulag, Kid.

Russia is on the verge of criminalizing emo. All emo kids in Russia will now face the heavy hand of the country's notoriously harsh justice system.

Clearly I've misjudged this Putin chap. Here is a statesman for the world to emulate.

Did you know of the anti-emo riots in Mexico?

I'm having a pout right now, in honor of emo kids across the world.

I had seen those stories Eduardo, but hadn't read about them in detail. You understand that my hatred of emo goes deeper than any ordinary prejudice like homophobia, of course.

How ya been pal? Long time no see.

Obviously, my hate for emo is not about the gheyity either. It is sweet hate, though.

I've been good! I forgot about RSS feeds and how I can add them to google reader, and now I have popehat at work. Way! It's good readin'.
