zali dear. I know you’re sound asleep, and you’ll omly get to read this when you’re awake. but baby, happy 5th monthsary to us. I’m sorry for what happened earlier this afternoon. I was throwing my temper and tantrums around, just because I couldn’t get th attention I wanted from you. dear dear, see. I told you we’ll make it somehow, didn’t I. even though it was hard, but it always occur to me that if it wasn’t for all th shits we went through, we wouldn’t have made it here. you still mean that much to me, ever since that very first day I gave my heart to you. I have loved you a whole lot more since then, never less. and I never will let you go. I promise to never walk out on you again, keep that in mind alright. sweet dreams.

The one thing that is always lost on these whiners is that it is our own stupid pussy sensitivity that causes it, nothing else. in other countries, a large part of the security screening is done through profiling. in some middle eastern countries, they do extensive screening and implement real security measures. if you look and act like a terrorist, you get pulled aside. if you match the profile of a terrorist based on historical terrorist activity, you get extra attention. this ‘random’ screening that the US implements where the most innocent (looking) get screened with the most guilty (looking) to present some illusion of randomness is hiding the fact that some profiling goes on. that is why we see nuns get extra screening right next to a young middle eastern male travelling with no bags of any kind. hey America, wake hte fuck up and quit being a pussy. so you get profiled, get over it. it’s a far better and more successful method for protecting us. it isn’t full proof by any means, but it will alleviate a lot of the hassle we endure. until you are willing to clean your sandy vagina and quit whining, you get to deal with the’ no profiling’ crap. remember, stereotypes (and profiling) save a lot of time. they exist because they are based on a pattern, some fact, some perception. while not perfect, it sure beats the system we’re using.
