Once again i state...your error lies in taking everything at face value. Subtlety is what make life fun....I'm not sure if your approach is due to a belief that all things make themselves self-evident with initial presentation or your just too young to imagine that a world in which all books could be judged by their covers would be extremely base....and not to mention boring. Some of your repeated assertions make this clear, your claim (2 or 3 times) that i am a 'racist' for example...a popular accusation during the defensive, social jockeying era in which the university years reside..
could be shot down by myself with a few basic facts - but to do so (and this is what i mean by understanding the eloquence of subtlety) would mean engaging in very juvenile game of accusations i.e."youre a racist, i'm not" or.."some of my best friends are(insert minority)"... etc....all the classic, cliche and not to mention insincere 'debates' that typically serve to merely jump on to the current side of accepted popular opinion...with the sole intent being to help yourself by bettering your image in the eyes of your equally frightened and defensive peers.

I inserted my carpet bombing bit just as a joke to you...i was very confident that you would realize that it was so outrageous that you would spot it for a silly and purposefully in poor taste joke. In fact...it was so blatant that i must admit it was a very simplistic method of humor. What made me laugh is that once again you took it at face value..or pretended to do so, so as to look the hero --- what a good girl you are.

Anyway...i await your forthcoming piss and 'vinaigre' response. But i doubt i will be able to muster up more time to waste on you. Now that i understand you, youre really quite boring kristy...... ....though i do enjoy your creative writing, quite clever some of it.
