I'm an alien. I gotta be. I just don't get human beings, I swear. How the hell do any of you ever manage to COMMUNICATE with each other?

Screw it, I never claimed to be human, I guess.

Not aimed at you, hon. *hug*

I dunno, it seems to be the theme of the week, and particularly of the day. Both personally and professionally at every turn I am running into people playing head games, telling half truths to avoid trouble, talking at cross purposes, making assumptions, deliberately misunderstanding or omitting key facts, saying one thing to a person's face and another behind their back, and just generally being as fuckheaded as possible. NOT ACat, mind you, but just... I'm finding, right now, a real feeling that I am unable to translate the human race into anything I can comprehend.

Sounds fuckd up, but I'm not even feeling like I can very well communicate what I mean, so never mind. *sigh* I guess it's just one of those days

I know this feeling. Sometimes you think some people *try* to make their lives as complicated as possible ... *sigh*

Are you *sure* you don't work at Worldcom? Sounds like my management team on up...

Heh.. yeah, I'm sure, but thanks for the tip on what con to PARTICULARLY not get involved with! >:)

Just to clarify...

...he said WorldCom, the frelled-up telecom company, not WorldCon, the World Science Fiction Convention.

Note, please, by pointing this out I in no wise warrant the sanity or humanity of the committee or membership of past, present, or future WorldCons.

(If, of course, you meant "con" as in "confidence job", commonly shortened to "con job", which apparently is a fair description of some of the accounting irregularities uncovered at WorldCom, then I completely missed your pun and explained the obvious, and I would have to go slink off and feel dumb.)

I'm not sure there's much difference.

Heh, no, I misread it - but I like the pun enough to wish I hadn't! Thanks!

a) I don't know. Sounds like you expressed yourself pretty well.

b) What makes you think *anyone* can translate the human race into anything
comprehensible?

c) Welll, you never have claimed to be human, have you? :)

d) How much of this is from work? We've been talking about you changing jobs
or going back to school. Maybe this is a hint. Heed it?

e) huGG
