Lessons learned and suspicions confirmed from a day in the CE boards:
. Just because someone uses your name doesn't mean they're quoting you.
. One of many inefficient ways to get people to see your point of view is to piss in their faces.
. Quoting a dictionary rarely wins an argument.
Ah, well. Things are as they are.
...
Hunh. I think I posted this more to remind myself of the kind of person I've been in the past than for any other reason. Having other people mirror how I used to be is a way of keeping myself in check. And effective, most likely.
Still, it's good to know that there are some actions out there that I can vent about. I have stockpiles of anger that I haven't put on the rolls... and at the moment they're paired with a decided lack of expressive embiodiments. Venues, yes. But embodiments, no.
The image of McQueen popped into my head while writing that: the Angriest Angel episode of S:AAB.
"I believe in asking myself, then answering: who am I?"
I suppose that it's in relation to these things that I find myself able to ask that question. At times I get glimmers of the answer.
It's in peaceful conversation that the glimmers fade and the answer reveals itself as incomplete.

kamille:
i am adding you because you are one of the few the people on the CE boards that consistently enriches the discussion with an informed view.
kamille:
thanks for the suggestion. i'll definitely rent that sometime... i'll just have to watch it without my b/f, because it doesn't sound like something he wouldget into (what with the nudity and that, he's pretty delicate about that kind of thing)
