...when you scoff at people who celebrate July 4th because they aren't as dedicated to understanding what the meaning of it is as you/us.
...when you think the tea party should be out there destroying corporate property and then telling the government to STAY THE FUCK OUT OF IT or ELSE.
=P
Eating Propaganda
What do you mean i don't care how your day was?!
When you know more about the machinations of constitutions than their proponents...
... when your democratic and republican family members send you text messages that they're praying for you after simply arguing that their beloved US is not a free country.
... when you want to bash your f*#ckin' head in when you hear co-workers bitching about the outcome of the Casey Anthony trial, but still defend the state monopoly court system when confronted with an alternative.
... when you argue with your General Manager about the morality of NOT making pornography/prostitution illegal... I hope I have a job on Monday. Damn you, Crown & Coke!!!!
...when you say no to alcohol a saturday night, because you have planned to read a Murray Rothbard book the forthcoming morning, and you don't want to spoil that experience with a hangover.
My friends never understand this.
... when you know Karl Marx better and are better read in Marxism than the Marxists.
This is funny since I am now working my way through the three volumes of Capital. It is doing funny things to my anarcho-capitalist head.
... when someone you aren't very close with at your job tries to make small talk with you about the "debt ceiling debates" going on in Congress now, and you want to respond with "I don't think there is moral justification for Congress taxing individuals, or on borrowing money on behalf of individuals," but instead you say "Oh yea, that's some story. Wonder how it's going to turn out."
this one just happened this morning
Giant_Joe:When you use terms like "civilized" and "uncivilized" instead of "private" and "public" That's a really effective one. You're welcome. :p

Freedom has always been the only route to progress.
When you feel you're having an aneurysm everytime you visit the community supported agriculture pick up and see that 99% of the morons there are socialists.
When a little part of you feels like a sell out every time you leave the driveway.
When frustrated coworkers ask "What kind of tax would be fair?"..... And you say "none." with a straight face.
. . . when you can't help but argue with clueless neo-cons on Facebook and you end up getting banned from their page.
^ This happened to me today.
When you make conservatives look like communists and liberals look like fascists.
Daniel Muffinburg: Sphairon: ... when you admit that despite your success in The Settlers, central planning does not work. ... when you play Civilization IV: Colonization without attempting to conquer any other civilization, and by accepting the tax increases by the crown but without ever actually paying the taxes, and by happily paying the Indians for their land.

... when you can't wait until Civ V: Colonization comes out.
To paraphrase Marc Faber: We're all doomed, but that doesn't mean that we can't make money in the process. Rabbi Lapin: "Let's make bricks!" Stephan Kinsella: "Say you and I both want to make a German chocolate cake."
. . . when your iPod is full of econ lectures from the Mises Institute.
... when you feel at home with people that want to be left alone. :)
...you respond to FB comments with philosophical/political outrage.
...when your central objective in life becomes converting people to volountaryism, preferably anarcho-capitalism
this is manifested
...when you spend tens of hours writing a 140 page (cambria 12 size!) masterpiece work in openoffice (open source openoffice NOT IP-bs Word by M$ patent trolling inc) which starts out with an ordinary IM conversation between two guys discussing the art (some science in it) of picking up women but who then seamlessly and at the time of reading makes seemingly logical transitions (Zeitgeist style where using symbols is key - which when looked back on objectively you can't really figure out how the dots are connected but due to your emotions you ignore it) into other concepts. The concepts as well as the narrative keeps evolving and fusing together and before you know it the main character is a godlike alien coming to earth in the form of this conversation (or is it a musical? or karaoke? or song? or rap? it's hard to define since the communication consist of pictures, lyrics, youtubevideos etc!)speaking directly to you and the other audience (the whole world) like a messia that converts everyone to volountaryism.
....when you then hesitate to release the work due to perfectionisthabits (which is really just an procrastination excuse and a perfect [yes pun intenden] excuse not to get anything finished). It has to be perfect and superclear as to allow for no misinterpration in the work that is designed and supposed to be become the bible 2.0. Wars are won by psy-ops!
...when you then realize you've essentially become a consitutionalist with the constitutionalist's leap of faith in a documents supreme power and it's ability to limit the state/mans actions. Fml. Question how you could forget that there's as many interpretations of the consitution/the bible as individuals reading it (heck even more interpratations than individuals since the individuals keeps chaning their mind.... especially and most importantly the supreme court judges)?
... when you put that work on hold and instead start designing your own conspiracy theory (currently 20 pages) geared towards minarchist libertarians which staunchly affirms and ”prooves” that libertarian minarchism is just another (state)ism propagated by globalist NWO reptilians (judge napolitano), funded by billionaire brothers Kochs (which are of course in on the NWO globalist one world government agenda as well - all billionaires are), and then lead them to converto to anarcho-capitalism - remember wars are won by psy-ops!
... When everyone you get into any non-superficial discussion with ends up thinking you are too radical.
The Late Andrew Ryan:When you flip shit at the huge disadvantage of using free market as your economy and the huge advantages of using planned economy in the little known but incredibly awesome game Sid Miere's Alpha Centauri
Stuff like this is why I could never enjoy Civilization and its derivatives. Gah. So annoying. They get all the economics so vastly wrong that it's angering.
Beefheart: ... you prefer the Articles of Confederation.
... you prefer the Articles of Confederation.
Good one! Haha! They are due for a historical rehabilitation.
