Look, I don't mind you guys having a good laugh at my stupidity, boorishness, arrogance, or god knows what other flaws that somehow are all coming into lurid evidence in this particular forum for some reason. But I've been posting things on internet forums for over 15 years now and I guess all these other forums have been humoring me into the self-flattering illusion that they actually enjoy the stuff I post.
I don't know. I'm guessing that I'm really not as offensive or annoying as you're pretenting I am. I mean I'm not hateful or mean or vicious or critical or insulting or covert. I work up these little essays, it's a hobby of sorts, I've been doing it for many years. Sometimes they bomb, but often people enjoy them. On occasion they start discussions, but not always. I don't know, it can't be all that awful because folks rarely complain. I sometimes get nuked, but most often it seems to be a pleasant experience all around. Right now in fact I have another short essay I finished and already started to post in places. But I'm hesistant to post it here because it seems you're going to roll your eyes even before reading it. Maybe you're all unusually advanced in comparison to most, where most others find new ideas in my stuff where perhaps it would be virtually impossible for me to come up with anything you've long thought about and are already long sick of. I'm obviously babbling and have no point to make or argument to sell. But I always figure when relations are awkward any expression is better than stone silence. I'm stopping simply because I don't know where else to go with this or what else to say. I'm not upset or hurt or junk like that. I'm just flailing wildly on the notion maybe I'll discover something that will enable a more fortunate presence. And I've signed everything Much Love for 15 years. Too gooey?
