1. Anyone else ever feel like taking someone's side JUST because their friends won't shut up about how much they hate them (without, like, serious "oh my god they raped a dog/killed a baby/said 'faggot'" justifications

I had half of a Patrick O'Brian audiobook and I remember enjoying it! :)

RAH.

and I rabbit on (when I actually post) about PCC meetings and school governors and taking children to orchestra ;-)

This was just a rash of I AM TAKING THIS COURSE, AND THIS OTHER THING, AND THEN I WILL HELP SOME STARVING ORPHANS. Which is enormously annoying because I am all about the self-gratification and I want to see more posts of unbridled self-indulgence like TODAY I ATE ALL THE FOOD, WATCHED TRASHY TELEVISION, GOT DRUNK AND HAD A WANK IN SOME COCAINE.

I regularly enjoy irritating people by defending people that they hate, especially if they have actual serious justifications.

It makes me feel better because I regularly desire to bash people's heads together and go 'those people over there? they are people. celebrities? people. murderers? people. the guys who overtook you in their loudmobile? people.' and I feel I don't do it enough.

ALSO, HELLO, I'M MIDDLE CLASS, LET ME TELL YOU ABOUT MY MIDDLE CLASS GUILT AND MY MIDDLE CLASS 'I'M SURE EVERYONE IS OKAY REALLY' BECAUSE NOBODY HAS EVER HURT ME REALLY BADLY BECAUSE, Y'KNOW, I'M MIDDLE-CLASS ;)

It is a valuable thing to remind people of, and the more BAD PERSON the people, the more they need reminding. Even if people aren't OKAY REALLY, they're still people. Magical!

2. Um, yeah, a big chunk of that is me.

3. I didn't know he had a tiny dog! Cute!

5. So now would be a good time to send you hammers?

7. I want cake! Also, assorted sensible stuff about how forcing yourself to go hungry is not good for you, and in the long run, doesn't even make you thinner.

[apiphile]

IDK if he has it any more, but I distinctly remember TINY DOG being something Aman mentioned.

7. It is not to do with thinness (I'm not totally delusional), I just find that when I'm hungry all I can concentrate on is how badly I want to eat, which is a marked improvement on the rest of the time at the moment, when all I can think about is RAGE EVERYTHING IS WRONG EVERYONE HATES ME AND WANTS ME TO DIE I SHOULD KILL THEM ALL LET ME WRITE A FIVE MILLION WORD ESSAY ABOUT ALL THE ANNOYING THINGS IN THE WORLD INSIDE MY HEAD AND THEN IMAGINE ALL THE SHITTY RESPONSES AND GET ANGRY WITH THEM. Hunger is a good distraction.

That is the single best thing I have learned since the day the one Vietnamese teacher decided we needed to know how to say "poison" and "torture".

That sucks that your brain is being like that at the moment. Just remember that food has an important "not dying" role, okay?

[apiphile]

Sir yes sir!

1. Yes, because I am a cunt... rary motherfucker.

6. I bet there'd be good audiobooks, it just seems like the kind of thing that lends itself to that? I sort of regret not reading more. Except then I remember the point I stopped at was theee... forth book? I think, and the one after that is the one in which Stephen gets married and I was like "but he's already married to Jack" and gave up (though uh I have read a random one in the middle of the series and they are still equally married so clearly his other marriage works too).

Weirdly I had it in my head that you read them alllllll. I can't even remember where I got up to, which is not at all helpful.
