we have developed, shall we say, alternatives to understanding. in a collective sense, of course. superficiality. check. ignorance. check. skewed worldviews. never kept in check. nevertheless, check. i find each of these necessary in attempting to deal with the relentless task of coping with you. it isn't that i don't know any better. it is merely that i know so much more than you. and for this, i never intended to be forgiven. unless you're in to that sort of thing.
today i won hundreds of dollars because of a football game that i did not play in. today mtv ran a documentary about the difficulties of paying 600 a month in rent. it's not that i wished that those people watched more football, because the solution must be more complex than that. complexity breeds the results that the most capable among us find useful. the fact that i aligned myself with a sports team from the country's capitol has little to do with that.
it is now that time of the night where i head to a bar with no diluted rum, no specks, and the high probability of being admired. the details fold themselves around such things.
