words
There are lots of things to like or dislike about words. The meaning, the associated contexts, the sounds like factor, the physical motion of pronouncing it all come into play ( Read more... ) -
Couincidence?
Recently, I've had it confirmed that I find increadible arrogant people pleasant, interesting and attractive. I often disagree with them, but the strength of their conviction is startlingly convincing, particularily when I don't know enough about the topic at hand ( Read more... ) -
My vegetarianism
People ask me all the time why I don't eat meat, and I have given quite a range of answers, but mostly on the theme of "I am not comfortable doing so".

Let there been jerring
I knew this day would come - when I would finally realise just how ugly a situation I have walked into. It sucks to realise that doing what is right will result in being hated from all sides by people who don't and won't get the whole picture. I'd like options that don't leave me feeling ill.
