I think that A Clockwork Orange being banned in the UK until the 21st century counts for a bit of controversy. But I'm biased, since I love the darned thing.

I understand it's happy for others, but why kick a puddle when you can kick a person?
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Which church? Unitarian, by any chance?
Heh, no, but a very liberal church.
I mean, my mother was the youth group leader, and actually brought in porn to our discussion of it.

Good. The lights have stopped flickering. Perhaps I will be able to concentrate on writing this damned query. I can't believe I left the jack field out of it! Can you?
Hardly.

Hee. I love the last one of Tom's. The second to last freaks me out. The third one is very nice, though.
