Sir Posts-A-Lot Presents: The Greater Sin, Or, 4 Easy Steps To Freedom
For those of you already familiar with my Holy Doctrine, Arrogance Without Charisma is a slightly lesser crime than Being Perpetually Boring. There's a reward for your attention at the end of this song, but first you must let me lead you on ( A Little Journey, Or, Catt Has An Early Morning Nonsensical Ramble That She Will Most Likely Regret When She Reads It Later, Then She Might Possibly Delete It, Because It Is Embarassing And Stupid, And Filled With Grammatical Errors And Spelling Mistakes That She Was Too Wired/Tired To Notice When She First Posted It )

Apparently he's still being cranky and anti-social, but is just about to release a solo album. I can put some of his solo works on your CD if you'd like?
It's a hard-to-define quality, but some people can pull off arrogance (as being charming), and some cannot. An interesting pattern that i've noticed is that those least deserving of being arrogant (or a braggart), often are, whereas those who have Much to crow about are often more humble. But as said, difficult to accuractely pin, or define.

is he going to be doing more acoustic stuff, or with a live band?

Ooo - I don't have Skittish, and haven't seen it around (Soul Coughing never really broke Australia, so their/his stuff is kinda scarce). I'm not really sure what he's up to honey - but Internet research can plug that hole....i'll get on to it.

I simply drop from the hips, so I'l flopped forwards with locked legs, but everything else obeying gravity. Claim: my puppeteer has gone on a tea break. That my hair touches the floor when I do this helps.
People From The Planet Boring are a bit of a hazard at the Wav now and then, you see. Usually I can extract myself with The Illusion of Busy. I sometimes rescue others. Sometimes not so much.
The thing I find the most worrying is that PFTPB tend to think they are fun. "Wacky" and "crazy" and "I'm mad, me" are watch words. Fear them.
*whistles a happy tune*
Yeah.

Another excellent method! It is difficult to not appear rude, but it's dog -vs- dog in the cerebral junkyard, and the less-boring-dog MUST come out alive. Pubs are often full of the worst offenders ...and certainly one without hapless targets would gravitate towards the (almost rooted-to-the-spot) barstaff. God have mercy on your soul.

Dear God, yes! These must be universal concepts, because I feel exactly the same... those who describe themselves thus are usually the most monotonous criminals of the genre. You can see it especially on dating sites ('crazyvixen343', 'i'm_weird_me_lol'...). Never trust these people. They're hiding a severe lack of interesting under their paper-thin disguise.

They wear their personality.
This is why I don't EVER want to be involved in a hen night. They always seem to involve little purple glittery penises on springs as hair decorations, and t-shirts procaliming "Lusty Linda" and "Wendy the Wench".
I don't need a costume, I have a personality. It's inside, but it's there.

You just described to me a whole swag of horrors. I don't know if you guys get Kath and Kym over there? That's my sister, and she once took me to a Tupperware Party (I was weak, disoriented, defenceless...honest).
Hen's Night = Nightmares.
And agreed on the last point. (Please excuse me, i'm still a bit manic after only a few hours' sleep...)

I've found that this type of person belongs to a subset of 'human' beings that do not take advice/criticism to heart - instead fobbing it off as the other person's (your) problem/difference of opinion. Just as you could doubtfully convince Ben Affleck that he's a talentless fuck, and should stop producing movies and just get on with the suicide part already, you'd have a difficult time alerting such 'humans' to their own monotonous persona. They aren't very self aware, and have no fucking idea who YOU are, so I also doubt they have the capacity to evolve from inner and outer hints to introspection.
Returned laughter (or being affable) counters most sins - arrogance, aggression, sleaze. There is just no defence for it. Boredom, however, is a tough one to laugh at.
