Kablammo!

In honor of me doing some of the last procrastinating I’ll ever do at Cooper, it’s time, once again, for an idiotlist.

• “It is implicit in the US administration’s position that anyone who does not agree that all of history has been moving towards a glorious pinnacle expressed in the US political, ideological and economic system has ‘rejected modernity’; that it is America’s mission to civilise and to punish.”
• Remind me to continue to refrain from calling people ‘old tarts‘ in my email correspondence.
• “It was wrong because it violated the very values and rule of law for which America was supposedly fighting, and soon produced evidence of double standards… It has been disastrous for America’s reputation because of that hypocrisy but also because it has become a symbol of a ‘we’ll decide’ arrogance.”
• Thanks a lot for running this article, New York Times. I hope you’re happy I couldn’t attend because your article singlehandedly pushed the demand for this event to the level of ‘preposterous’. Bastards, now I’ll never get to see Sam Waterston reciting Lincoln.
• Not only can Peeter Kopvillem write a damn good song, he can write a damn good essay as well.

Yeah.
