Me? Speech?

I can hardly string two words together in front of a crowd, I am not doing any speeches.
I would've put this in the philosophy thread except that it's dealing with biology far more than it's dealing with philosophy. The "human-animal" thing is just a subnote. We all know what divides humans from the rest of the animal kingdom; reasoning and intellect, as Raphiel put it. I'm saying that which divides us from the animal kingdom is also what makes the whole "rape is natural" argument when it comes to human behavior a load of shit. It may be sociological, but a natural impulse to commit rape? Especially with the ways rape is often committed? Rapists are a particularly sinister and disgusting lot of humanity; "natural" impulse really, REALLY does not seem to be what drives people like that, it's something usually far deeper-seated. Emotional trauma, or social status/pressure, for example.

Nah, drugs are good, mm'kay.
The two are really not the same at all. You aren't making someone suffer by simply taking drugs.
Hey, I'm just doing what Mr. Mackey tells me not to do!
I also can't say fuck. I gotta say fudge. :[
I dunno how the rest of the song went...
