It seems like I am always mentioning something I love. Apparently, I am not very discriminating. You?<\/p>\n
Oh, people always tell me I am discriminating. <\/p>\n
Uh…err….Maybe you need to have a chat about that with your HR department. <\/p>\n
When I am not actively discriminating, I love paradox, irony and humor.<\/p>\n
Sounds like a law firm…”Paradox, Irony and Humor..how may I direct your call?”<\/p>\n
Humor. <\/p>\n
Of a minor sort, yes. <\/p>\n
You’re always so self deprecating…<\/p>\n
Better then self defecating. <\/p>\n
Potty humor. <\/p>\n
How unlike me…<\/p>\n
Is it?<\/p>\n
I like to pretend to myself that I am more cerebral than that. <\/p>\n
Are you successful?<\/p>\n
At pretending to be cerebral? Mostly. It’s an easier goal than actually being cerebral. <\/p>\n
You aren’t UNcerebral. <\/p>\n
Another item to add to my resume. <\/p>\n
You can mention it right after your gift for profanity. <\/p>\n
Great idea!<\/p>\n
Thanks. HR likes profanity almost as much as discriminating. <\/p>\n
Some of us are HR disasters waiting to happen. <\/p>\n
You, too?<\/p>\n
It’s because I’m intimidating. <\/p>\n
Intimidating?<\/p>\n
To the stupid and\/or incompetent. <\/p>\n
Do you tell people they are stupid or incompetent?<\/p>\n
Of course not, but if they ask me the same thing more than twice I might tend to say “what did I tell you when you asked me that yesterday” instead of answering again. <\/p>\n
That is an unusual approach.<\/p>\n
Telling people the same thing over and over is NOT one of the things I love.
\nExcept nice things. I don’t mind repeating nice things. <\/p>\n
Like what?<\/p>\n
Thanking someone for doing something unexpected and awesome. Complimenting someone’s cute new haircut. Telling someone I love them. <\/p>\n
All of those things are good things. What else do you love?<\/p>\n
New shoes. Sunny days. Looking at any sort of body of water, even a puddle. Music. Black eyeliner. Sleeping. Certain people. Buttered popcorn. <\/p>\n
I hope I am on the list. <\/p>\n
Take me to a movie and buy me some popcorn and I will submit your name for consideration. <\/p>\n
I have to bribe you?<\/p>\n
Yes. No. Maybe a little. <\/p>\n
I guess a movie is a cheap enough bribe, even with popcorn. <\/p>\n
I’ll make it worth your while. <\/p>\n
There isn’t a doubt in my mind about that. <\/p>\n
Thanks, you’re sweet. <\/p>\n
Ditto.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
