I never cry at funerals. I drink instant coffee with milk and too much sugar. I think the c-word is my favorite word in the English language, when used appropriately (or inappropriately, as the case may be). Its close alternative, t-word when I want to be kind. I (sometimes) pick fights with board members (when they are obviously wrong, or just annoying c\*s). ---

Are you English? I ask because they seem to use that invective a lot. Oh, yeah, my confession: I’m Genghis Khan when I’m behind the wheel of a car. Fortunately, no one can here the things I say to some of the drivers around me. ---

I’m currently watching re-runs on PBS on weekends. There’s a lot I missed. And I’ve watched the movies multiple times…what should I be watching instead, to make me less terrible? I so hate to be thought of as un-cool. ---

I’m still receiving emails from a job I left a while ago. I’m noticing they’re not including my replacement in those emails. There’s just six people in the department and no one has noticed? I should feel bad but I don’t I’m kinda getting a good laugh about it. ---

I’ll give you _Downton Abbey._ (My son calls it **Mountin’ Dabney).** Yeah, I’m rewatching it’s reprise on PBS. I watched 6 seasons, _religiously,_ of **The Walking Dead.** I feel quite prepared for a zombie apocalypse. 🙄 All of a sudden I didn’t like it anymore and quit watching. I feel guilty, for some reason. Mostly I’m a nice person. I don’t really like to be in a group of people, reasons, so I don’t seek out that kinda life. So no, I don’t call people cunts . I can’t see any reason to ever do that. It’s an ugly little word. The most awful thing I do is pretend I’m listening to you and zone out as you drone on..some of my best thoughts come at these times. Seeking out disagreements, on purpose is a thing people do on other social media. I hate to see it on the Dope. Don’t do that, @QuickSilver. ---
