the poetry of madness

meta-critical

let me define, to avoid any frivolous digressions.  I'm against unsolicited criticism.  I don't believe criticisms should be volunteered to someone who has merely dared to express themself.   Critical analysis is for learning, not for knocking someone  over the head.

Being smart comes with responsibility.  Sarcasm is usually a way of saying "Hey, stupid."  Smart people can be bullies with far more cruelty than the stupidest muscle dude.  Words can never hurt me, my ass.

I didn't make him for you.

Another day of Texas sun.  My flowers love it, as long as they get plenty of water.  Me, too.  Once upon a time, I had a swimming pool with a hot tub and a sauna.  Then one day, they were annexed by the eX.  If you don't see the divorce coming, you can lose lots fast.  Denial is a weak approach, both tactically and strategically.

I miss my pool.

i tend to be sarcastic and cynical (my school of philosophy)
people just don't understand and take everything TOO personal.

people don't understand sarcasm, typically, because they aren't that quick - when they realize that you were communicating on a different level, they know you just called them stupid

friends often tease each other with insults, but once we leave the circle of those in the know, a different set of rules apply
