a point of clarity
Apr. 10th, 2006 10:08 amIf you're a misanthrope, please unfriend me. Really. I'll return the favour as soon as I clue in.
I don't expect/need you to be chipper or obsequious, but if you can't ever find a good thing to say about anyone--except, of course, how clever and funny you are--we're not on the same page. Anymore. Thank Gawd.
I agree many things in life are unfair. I've experienced more than my share. But I know that being unwell, single, poor, a Democrat--none of these circumstances necessitate having the personality of barbed wire. Chances on the folks here egging you on are similarly attired
If you're working away from perennial snarkiness, or even just trying to be a bit less snarky, stick around. I'm all about folks trying to be better people. I am too. And sometimes the stuff on your plate will make a rant appropriate, even healthy. Me too.
But the relentless "edgy" digs, cheap shots, and venial "oooh, I am soooo clever because I see that person z is sooo not clever" postings? Their sum total contribution to making the world a better place is -1.
Sincerely,
