Teenage Werewolves Per Se

Reason #51 why the DMV (DC/Maryland/Virginia) is better than any other part of the US: Teenage Werewolves. Teen “wolf packs” are terrorizing loitering around San Antonio shopping malls and calling all sorts of attention to themselves. Totally unlike the been-there-done-that vampire fad started by Satan’s Bible (known on the New York Times Bestsellers list as Twilight), teenage werewolves wear wolf-like contact lenses, fake tails, chains, gothy lipstick, and (oh wait) fangs. Potato, potato?

Stephenie Meyer (who apparently has just as much difficult spelling the name Stephanie as she does writing a novel) is probably tenting her fingers like Mr. Burns and plotting the demise of all human beings born after 1989. Instead of growing in adult humans, these kids are desperately trying to transform in wolves in whatever way possible. The physical transformation is obviously almost complete with a pair of goth bondage pants. To me, nothing screams Benicio del Toro the Wolfman than some black studded pants from Hot Topic. However, like the douchey vampire kids in South Park, teenage werewolves must taste blood. DOG BLOOD!

These kids don’t need encouragement from child psychologists that got their diploma from the back of a cereal box, they need a harsh dose of reality. They are not exactly “fitting in” or “finding their identity.” They are playing with dark magic! We are at risk of the Hellmouth moving from Sunnydale to San Antonio. Sarah Michelle Gellar can’t save us this time, she’s too busy raising her kid not to be a douchey teenage werewolf! Our best plan of action is to remove funding from trivial pursuits (like putting a lid on the Gulf oil gusher) and focusing government efforts on putting an end to this madness.

Is Formspring Stupid?

While I am probably breaking the rules by asking a question off of formspring (since everyone knows you can only ask questions through this inane website), I think some finger-pointing is in order. For those of you who aren’t facebook friends with a herd of sheep, formspring is basically a website for people to anonymously ask other people questions. At this point you’re probably thinking… I don’t get it. Let me explain by example.

ideal candidates for formspring accounts

Meet Nina. Nina has little self-esteem and has broken many bridges in her life. Drama isn’t terribly uncommon (as she is in a sorority and is in college) and she’s had her fair share of breakups. Nina isn’t ugly or gorgeous, skinny or fat. Nina is a typical college female – the center of her own world, a speck of dust in the grand scheme of things.

nina the nobody

Since Nina lacks any ounce of maturity or self-knowledge, she cares deeply about what other people think of her. It is important to note that she doesn’t seem to care what her actual friends think of her (who would obviously just ask any questions to her face and/or already know the answers since they are friends with her). No, Nina wants to know what Susie Sorority (who is pissed off that her ex has a crush on Nina) thinks. In fact, when Susie “anonymously” calls Nina a fat whore, Nina take this to heart and allows it to consume her life. And so, Nina kills herself.

sheep + formspring = this

This actually happens. What “experts” (i.e. idiots with a BS in psychology or something) are calling “cyber-bullying” has gotten way out of hand through websites like myspace, facebook, and formspring. Honestly, though, putting yourself out there on any of these websites is inviting other weak sheep to gain enough confidence to confront you in ways they wouldn’t be able to face to face. This is obviously a recipe for disaster. Get a life, not a formspring.

On an unrelated side note, here is Margo’s formspring account. BAHHH!!!!!!
