Yeah it takes that kind of mentality I guess. According to LFM, it takes a sociopathic drive to succeed. I forgot I shared that instance of my life with you.

Never forgive.

I'm super mad about your tie.

Smick, we should hook up when I'm back in town. I'm pretty sure I still have your phone number - should I just call you sometime?

I only meant that in terms of my personal aspirations toward a media job, actually.

Pretty much the only people I knew who were making it in teevee or film had to give up all of their personal life and most of their ethics for like... years... to succeed beyond paying the rent.

You gotta have a laser-like singular focus... or a lot of connections or a lot of luck... in that field.

Devoting your entiire waking life to exaggerating and namedropping and schmoozing and sucking up and turning on people at the drop of a hat and stuff. It is very hard to be, well, nice in that field and succeed.

I can see where I wasn't perfectly clear in delineating that point, though.

Sure!  That would be rad!   I'm in Reno (with the Vitamin D) next week between Tuesday and Friday afternoon.

Your rational debate is impeding my ability to make gross generalizations and categorically write off everybody involved as a bunch of idiots. Cut it out!

Yeah no one turned on The Internet Debate Machine here and it makes me sad that we all grew up and acquired brains. If strangers can't yell at each other over the interwebs then what is this all even about?

My opinions have not changed too much. Except the one where I used to think it made sense to yell at conservatives on the internet.

Or maybe the one where I used to think it made sense.
