You'll have to admit the man does like his apostrophes.

Who is that thing? Or what, or which is it? Is there an Inspector
Clousseau in the house? Speak up! Do your duty! Who can solve the mystery of this puss puddle oozing in under the door? WTF was that? It was like something that went scampering by on three legs in the night. Where the hell is the House Detective when you need one--and how many damn times do you have to bang on the desk clerk's bell? Jesus jumping . . . I mean it's like some scene out of Lolita, here. It's Humbert Humbert sitting out on the verandah very pleasantly minding his own business, when from out of nowhere, it's that same anonymous stalker creep that turns up every now and again, only to reveal yet another of his many faces, and yet it is always really somehow the same as this, of the common garden variety hotel lobby "deviated prevert"--if a literary allusion may be indulged. CLUE: It is clearly some otherwise commonly known, semi-regular MW denizen. RIDDLE: Where does he filch it, this "Fit to Print" nym? Check it out . . . http://whosenose.blogspot.com -- JM |

That went right over the old fart's head. It's typical.

Presuming that one would not know the difference between the
possessive "its" and the contractive "it's"? Is that your presumption? Like so many things in this life, just because we know what is right or merely correct, doesn't mean we will always do and act accordingly. See Iran, surrounded on two sides by the U.S. military, and while we know it would be right to do something about the hell those valiant souls are suffering as they strive to do right--nevertheless, we do nothing; we don't do right. We let them be beaten, imprisoned and murdered. We know what's right, but we do not do right. So who are you to talk preposterously--of apostrophes? Think! Think of the difference it would make for those daring Iranians if the U.S. and Britain were to do no more than simply drive up to those borders and camp without so much as firing a shot. Think of the pressure it would take off those people being brutalized inside. What a pack of despicable cowards this human race is comprised of, by and large, that whenever there is a rare show of human valor anywhere, the whole world goes screaming in terror the other way--telling themselves lies about how brave and right they are for what they don't do. How I hate being marooned on this Planet of Apes generally being referred to otherwise as "the human race". And I was just thinking, only yesterday and today of what a mistake of nature Man is. Why, very Nature herself must be counted suspect for allowing such a defective mutation of an otherwise healthy primate gene pool, as once this planet had before Man came along. Oh, it's certainly the truth. And it is certainly absurd so much as it is a fact, that Nature should finally evolve a creature that unlike all the rest of creation, has built right into its genetic shit, not only the capacity for, but the inevitable destiny to destroy the very Nature that gave rise to him. What a mistake of nature, is Man. -- JM http://whosenose.blogspot.com http://jesusexegesis.blogspot.com http://mackiemesser.zoomshare.com |

Just something about the tone in that--know what I mean? It's like
something spoken between nibbles on a stalk of wheat, or whittles on a stick, or spittles spewn to the snouse can. It is not the voice of an educated man. And there would be nothing too sad or way bad about that, given that he had sufficient native intelligence and virtue to be a man about it, that he should recognize in all healthy humility, that he only makes himself appear far more ignorant than he is, as he puts on his silly competitive show of pretending to be more knowledgable than the knowledgable, till he even winds up trying to teach his ignorance as knowledge! That is a very ignorant person of little virtue talking there. Either you own the virtue to see it, or . . . Hah. You agree with it. No? God, I love living in such a world full of fools. Who the hell needs Laurel and Hardy and the Three Stooges when you've got nearly all of Humanity to keep you in stitches--if not the gas chambers? -- JM http://jesusexegesis.blogspot.com http://mackiemesser.zoomshare.com |
