Over five years ago, I wrote an LJ entry provocatively titled "The Hate Comes First". The title came from an article that I quoted regarding the psychological phenomenon called "splitting." ( Shall we review? )
I just finished reading the thread you linked to. John (yj) is a very interesting guy, his background (that which I know of, from a number of convos) is absolutely fascinating (to me). I'm thinking that you and he have a lot more in common philosophically than not. (for example I think his original reaction about your Puritan comment is based on his atheism).
Oh crap, I think I just blew my welcome....I'm hopeless about talking about talking.
I just noticed there was much more discussion on t_p (I had gone over to check to see which "last line" I was talking about to make sure I was clear :D.
I will now go and read all that, I did notice you don't take crap from Lenny...good on you :D
And I know I don't act opposite, even at my advanced age if I am walking across a street and I notice a car wanting to make a right turn, I will actually jog to get out of the way, so they can turn before the light changes.
And the quotes were because it was a Bill Murrey line from Caddy Shack.
Haven't seen Caddy Shack. I know, I know, everyone has seen it. Everyone but me. There's a weird list of movies I have simply not gotten around to seeing, and that's one.

The discussion with YJ actually started here, where it got bizarre enough for me to re-hash this stuff from five years ago.
And I appreciate you commenting here, as long as you're not here to talk about talking. . . .
