Well, since I thought my life was on TV like a soap, anyone 'happening' in my life was 
part of the soap too, a fellow victim. Friends, family, anyone passing me on the street, 
anyone I saw, they all were 'actors' too, they weren't watching, 'the others' were 
watching. So I wasn't afraid of my parents or teachers finding out about my 
wrongdoings, and I could, er, 'borrow' a friend's toy without fear of him finding out, but 
THEY had seen what I'd done and would make me feel ashamed.

*sigh* Who needs psychotherapy when you have a mailing list?

Elkins and other victims: do you too feel a dee-rooted despise for TV shows like Big 
Brother, Survivor, and the like? All kinds of 'reality TV'? I do hate them with all my 
heart. Go figure.

*evil laughter* Hahahahaa, I've got EXPERIENCE with these things, I know where 
people will look for the cameras! You won't find them ever.

Incidentally, Elkins, I've got a nice close-up of you picking your nose when you 
thought nobody was looking. Want a screenshot? ^_~
