Rainman is too benevolent. Having endured it myself for 17 years, I'm gonna go with "creepy." > I think the contempt she has for what she calls the Mr. > Wonderful persona is her aversion to genuinely showing > up authentically without all bravado and bullshittery > of having to maintain her self-imagined superiority, > her much touted higher ethical standards and need to > "win" casual discussions. Bingo. I think Judy primarily runs on JealousyOS. She honestly doesn't *understand* how people can just be themselves and get others to like them or appreciate their creative endeavors without constantly trying to micromanage their image. Personally I think that a lot of this has to do with the fact that she hasn't ever been able to *be* creative, and thus has never experienced what it's like to just stand back and allow one's writing or one's music to say it all for them, with no further comment or spin. But what- ever the cause, I think you're correct. > She does not believe she is one of the bozos on this bus. Very definitely. And isn't it fascinating that one of her most common memes is that she's stalking the people she stalks because *they* present themselves as superior? I don't think I'm alone here in suggest- ing that you never have; your equanimity and your *lack* of superiority are among your most admirable qualities. And her reaction to this is to try to spin *herself* as more moral and more ethical and more honest than you are? Does not compute. Bzzzzt. I'm replying only because, as I suggested earlier, a sane person would have accepted your brushoff as the major dumpage it was, and walked away. Clearly she is not going to be able to do this, and IMO will spend pretty much the remainder of her posts this week trying her best to lure you back into a head-to-head battle with her. You can go there if you want, but just as you said about her, I think you have more important things to say than that. YOU have the ability to Just Say No, and allow her to obsess all by herself.
