No, no, Charles. That's not America you see around you. That's your ass. You've gotten your head stuck up there again.

Americans are out here, in the fresh air.

“I sound my barbaric yawp over the rooftops of the world.” —Walt Whitman

If the opposite is happening in the other world, how would the same situations keep arising? I get a job at a Daycare, so opposite me doesn't get a job at a Daycare. Daycare me saves a a pilot's life at the grocery (killer peas), so non-Daycare me doesn't save a life? Or takes a life? Would the life taken be related to the life saved in the other world? If not, how can all these opposite reactions possibly stay related? The pilot I save in Daycare world goes out and crashes an airliner into the ocean, but this never happens in non-Daycare world because I wasn't there to save the pilot's life, yet the opposite is supposed to happen to everyone on the plane? And so on? Cool idea, but it seems like it might start to get exponentially confusing...

You say that to all the girls you find under the mistletoe? Mr. Flapper!

I've never seen Lambs. I was always afraid it would scare me. NOW I AM SURE.

A geography text book. I find the writing a little tedious. The plot a little humid.

Gone with the Wind in thirty seconds, with bunnies.

Ignorance.

Evidence.

geostrophic (It really is the first word that comes to mind! I'm learning about how to read the sky for weather, ha ha.)

I've not read Ayn Rand's work thoroughly yet, though I've had it strongly recommended to me by a person I respect who is able to suggest reading which offers a viewpoint that opposes my own without also calling me a man- hater. (She is also a feminist.) The excerpts I have read of Rand's work frankly repulse me. I agree so far with very little that she argues.

However, I just read her theory on the anti- conceptual and must thank you: now I see what your issue is. Friend, that concept fully describes you.

I'm not sure where you got the idea that I consider men mean? You seem to fixate on this issue whenever you speak to me, which makes me wonder if, as with the anti- conceptual remark, you are projecting. I love men. As do many feminists. My issue is with pigs.

I also voiced no issue with logic, beyond suggesting that you seem to lack it. I spy another red herring. You seem fully unable to focus.

I will be bowing out of this conversation now, though I can only assume bait is forthcoming. As I said, I consider speaking to a person of your mentality a waste of my time.

Thanks for the book rec. It's been on my list.
