Madame Bovary or better yet a poetry collection of someone like Emily Dickinson or Maxine Kumin or Sylvia Plath or Pablo Neruda or other poets that no one knows. Or a book about dreaming or something shamanic. Or The Red Tent or Clan of the Cave Bear. Or maybe some fantasy Charles de Lint type stuff.
Dude, they probably misunderstood it! I think some might have read it wrong and thought it sounded too cocky or something
Thanks, Did you understand it? I think you have gotten to know me well enough that you got it immediately.
I think so (no guarantees!) But I already thought when i read it the first time that it lends itself really good for misinterpretation. Some people get pissed off if they see something that looks like it could be both really honest and self proclaimed expertise (even or maybe especially when you tried to put it a little humorously) You see I'm analyzing on the move. Happily my assignment isn't over neither yet!
I can see how it could possibly be misconstrued as such, but if looked at in it's entirety, I am admitting that I have become a bit of an asshole around here, more so than usual, and that it was time for some personal reassessment. Fuck it, maybe I'm just a one of those "See Spot Run" books for kinders.
So you're not going to try to be less of an asshole anymore because people misinterpreted a post of you of which you acknowledge it could be minsinterpreted? :biggrin: jk!
Oh I try, I try all the time, but have you seen some of the shit posted around here lately? It's hard I tell ya, It's hard........
I feel it is much more gratifying to adress that shit without being an asshole. Well, I'm sure some people think of me as such because I adress their shit but I know I could be much much worse. The bigger you give in to being an asshole (and you are not nearly the largest on here, pretty noxious gasses though ) the less constructive you will be.
"so long and thanks for all the fish" (third book in the hitchiker's guide trillogy by douglas adams) although i'm not a dolphin. but the title ought to work for large green cats from a small green planet in a distant galaxy too.
