So, the month has rolled and it's time to choose the next monthly topic. But first, here's the one you guys [Poll #1758693](Feel free to suggest more).

Forecast calls for a chance of tomfoolery followed by a torrential shitstorm. Bring your pets in.

With abortion and sex crimes as part of the monthly topic? Hell yeah.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

Like it hasn't been the yearly topic, EH?

[blue-mangos.livejournal.com]

Yeah, but now it's officially sanctioned. And why do people keep looking at me, I've never done an abortion post. Sex crimes, yes, but I have my limits when it comes to causing wank.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

People run away from official things, mark my word. Actually that's a possible tactic, I'm so stupid for not having thought of it earlier! ;-)

[blue-mangos.livejournal.com]

*fingers crossed* I am burnt out on those topics. I might do something on prostitution though.

[raichu100.livejournal.com]

That would be really interesting. And it's kind of what I was thinking too. I'm surprised tbh considering how much upset there's been that we've been talking so much about some of these topics.

[blue-mangos.livejournal.com]

I'm halfway through writing it, it should be up within an hour! And people are always going to complain no matter what, don't ever let that be a consideration on a topic you wish to post about.

[raichu100.livejournal.com]

Oh, good! I look forward to reading it. (I have no idea where you stand on this issue, so no idea what this post will look like...should be interesting!)

And yeah, I'm not saying it's influenced any posts I might have made, just thought it was weird that that was voted the monthly topic - surprising considering that a lot of people seem to really not want to talk about some of this shit.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

I suspect they do want to talk about it, but not in the way they're used to seeing people talk about it - i.e. with flaming.

[raichu100.livejournal.com]

What kind of flaming are you talking about? I haven't dealt with a whole lot, except from one or two really extreme people.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

Yes, that kind of flaming.

[raichu100.livejournal.com]

Well, you might be right about that. Too bad there's no way to make a post and use a magic spell to block all flaming that might result...

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

That would be the most awesomestest LJ feature evAR.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

I need an iron umbrella (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bulgarian_umbrella).

[kinvore.livejournal.com]

want.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

I could arrange something. Will call the Secret Services.

[kinvore.livejournal.com]

Hell, I can get you a toe by 3 o'clock this afternoon... with nail polish. These fucking amateurs...

I'm just gonna come out and say it right off the bat, Richard Dawkins does not exist.

[kinvore.livejournal.com]

Shun the nonbeliever! Shuuuuuuuuuuuuuun-nah!

[a-new-machine.livejournal.com]

But you believe in a whole bunch of other authors! So why do you stop at this one?!

[anfalicious.livejournal.com]

He is a plant by the Catholic church to discredit science.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

Let's just assume that he's the voice of the Almighty!

[pastorlenny.livejournal.com]

"Richard Dawkins" is a social construct.

[anfalicious.livejournal.com]

Absolutely. He is a myth created to make Atheists feel like they actually have an argument :)

[dwer.livejournal.com]

no no no, if Richard Dawkins didn't exist, we'd have to create him.

[htpcl.livejournal.com]

Y...you mean...through genetic engineering, right?

[dwer.livejournal.com]

sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.
