So a friend invited us around for dinner this evening, and we see her circle maybe 1-2 times a year. Apparently, a lot can happen to people in that time.

Since the last time we saw them, several of these people have been going on courses on how to see auras. Srs(OMFGMYHEADSGONNAEXPLODE)ly. So naturally they had to talk about auras and mediums and Steven Hawking and all kinds of ill-digested wishful crap all mixed up together for ONE AND A HALF EXCRUCIATINGLY PAINFUL HOURS.

Gotta hand it to them though. They've all gotten so sensitive to seeing auras and interpreting their nuances THAT THEY TOTALLY FAILED TO NOTICE THAT I JUST COULDN'T GIVE A SHIT.

The fact is that what we're experiencing right now is a top-down disaster. -Paul Krugman

Any idiot can face a crisis - it's day to day living that wears you out.

  They would have noticed if you'd argued - or, not to be too much of a social embarrassment, asked  with them what evidence there was for any of this fascinating stuff - apart from anecdote - instead of just simmering silently :-)

Maybe it's because I'm a Londoner - that I moved to Nice.

I wonder what's wrong with your aura. Better go to a White Witch (my older brother ... LOL) and get it checked.

In the end, might makes right. Nothing has changed since the caveman.
