The Weird Society Bill of Rights

We the Weird hereby declare that we have certain rights, and among these are the following:

I. The right not to fit into society's narrow mold of what anyone 'should' be, girl, boy, teen, adult, black, white, yellow, red, purple, or whatever.

2. The right to alternate between roman and arabic numerals in our official documents.

III. The right to congregate on and off the internet without people of the so-called "normal" variety disturbing us and annoying us because they do not like what we are.

IV. The right to scream and throw things at the TV when there is an exciting, season-ending cliffhanger.

5. The right to update these at a later time (whenever the President feels like it.)
