I don't do that. Show me a post where I have.

Or that. As above.

Neither do I attempt to look like I'm really interesting. I wouldn't know
where to start...I'm well aware that I'm a boring old fart, and proud of it.

Trying to look like a better person is very far removed from actually trying
to /be/ a better person. Jerry's Final Thought: the former is irrelevant.
Concentrate on the latter. You'll get yours.

I'm not doing that, either. I haven't condemned anyone for their life-style
choices. I could harp on about the drugs I take just as well as anyone else,
and how sitting in my friend's room at uni, stoned off my tits, and
listening to him play guitar is as rewarding an experience as jumping up and
down like a loon at a sweaty concert. But I'm not going to. Oh...I just did.
Whoops, silly me.
In my opinion, if people want to do drugs or beat their wives (I'm not
equating them, leave me alone I've got asbestos armour) then that's their
business and I'd rather not hear about it. Aren't mailing lists supposed to
be places where people can share their opinions? These are mine. Are you
suggesting that it would be wrong for someone to tell me to shut up if I
claimed that blowing coke up my arsehole makes Bonnie Tyler sound like Amon
Tobin?
I realise that by referring to mailing lists as places to share opinions I
might be seen as hypocritical...well, dammit, I am. Perhaps my original post
was harsh on several people, and for the offence it may have caused, I
apologise. I dunno, it's 6am...I've been designing transistor circuits all
night...I'm feeling crankier than Chitty Chitty Bang Bang (now /that/ was a
soundtrack! Ah, the memories!).

You know, Jared, for an optimist, you're pretty gloomy.
