That is the problem..I see WAY too much of the worst of
humanity..everyday..I get to wade in up to my knees in the filth of
our society..and I'll be darned if I am going to involve that drek in
my relaxation time..Don't get me wrong..It isn't like I would only
allow some sort of tulip eatin' see the world through rose colored
glasses type of character in a game I run..it is quite simply that
depravity and those things that I limit have no place in my
recreational time..
And there are quite simply some things that it is much better that a
person not be prepared for.. they will be better off in the long
run..

hmm..I don't see 2 points..But that is alright..Just because
something is make believe doesn't mean the concept of it should not
bother you.. truthfuly if depravity in whatever form it takes
[real or imaginary] does not bother a person..I don't want to spend
my free time hanging out with that person..because it is that person
that need to find professional help..

You'll get over it..
