You know what I'm really sick of? People who like to inform me that it's my "duty" to vote. Come again?
Listen: If you want to vote, go fucking vote and leave me alone. If voting's your thing then by all means get to it. But don't adopt this cloying, more-patriotic-than-thou pretense that you're somehow a more informed, responsible person because of it, because it doesn't wash.
I'm a creative person. I like making things and seeing how they fare in this strange, buzzing construct we like to think of as the "real world." So I take real offense when one of these vacuous drones assumes that because I don't vote then I've basically forfeited the right to be taken seriously.
"I voted today!" Rah, rah, rah! Good for you. Now go back home and watch TV, you pretentious fuck.
