snap crackle pop breakfast cereal that talks nonsense yet says infinitely more than most people i know.
a long time ago i moved in with a friend of mine who was going through a difficult time, he latched on to me and became quite obsessive, i found him intrusive and demanding and as much as i wanted to be patient with him i found myself needing to create clear boundries. i told him one day, as is my form when pushed to far, 'i am culling a lot of people in my life and i'm starting with you.'
'you can't just cull me, i've known you for years.'
'no you have not known me, if you knew me i wouldn't need to cull you.'
'but we live together.'
'yes and i need some space from that.'
'but i think when people live together they should have breakfast and meals together.'
'maybe if they are married.'
then he hit me. anyways years later i find myself working with this man, a man who comes across as a gentle, spiritual soul, a man who starts to inform my co workers that i have an issue with authority.
actually i say to my work collegues, i don't have an issue with authority, i have an issue with people in authority who are stupid. i guess my issue is with stupidity.
i am entering a period of conflict at work, war is looming, i am confident in myself, i have no allies but i know becuase i let myself be under estimated the forces that move against me will be over confident, they will make mistakes becuase they are stupid people in authority.
