Yeah "responsible adults" is kind of an irritating phrase. It is often followed by a
whole set of
truisms that kind of irk. I am a messy house keeper and I don't mind it. If it means
living alone I
will. If I had the wherewithal and needed it to have a clean house, I'd probably hire
someone at good
wages to do it.
Clean houses always reminded me of funeral parlours, it's dead, nothing or nothing
human really lives
there. This may come from having had lots of fun in scuzzy situations.
As far as depressed people, well I have mixed feeling about it. Sometimes one can lead
people out of
things. Since I tend to be a bit reactive, talking it over with friends helps. And no
matter how well it
is put, all the co-dependency stuff and jargon kinds of sets off my creep-o-meter. To
a certain extent
it seems a therapeutic fad to get bothersome problems off one's backs.
As far as life to the lifelorn I still ask why do guys always seem to ask other guys,
and not female
friends. Note, not to set of our Australian Readers but australians of both sexes,
would give me real
constructive advice on how to get the person I was interested in. And it was a mix of
things....Sometimes it worked. :)
I don't see how this all relates to linux, other than the atmosphere places like
slashdot creates. I
mean it would be more fun if someone would produced a good comment to it on slashdot.
to counter the
"where can I find one" thing there.
And the article above it is GOOD as I muttered, I mean not only do I feel we don't
want linux being like
a "boy's club" but I don't want it being the "spy on people" network. Or the "let's
write profiling
software, sort of things..."
Since we know what it has been to be a weirdo and outsider, we should be gentle to our
fellow outsiders
and not let them be oppressed. So I think and feel these things are evil and typical
high school
administrator behavior. Sigh...
Well enough muttered....
Have Fun,
Sends Steve
