First thought: I'm probably rare in that I think open conflict can be healthy. Painful oh fuck yes, but in the same way that a forest fire is painful and yet still healthy. It kills a lot of shit but it also clears away the deadwood so new things have space to take root. People who refuse any kind of conflict are denying themselves the chance to make some damn room.
Second thought: I'm often fascinated by how infrequently people see themselves in the things they say they hate. Lack of self-awareness is more common than coldsores.
Third thought: It's flattering as hell that you say I don't do that, because like you I think of it as something that I aspire to more than something that I'm good at. Either both of us are more forgiving of our friends than we are of ourselves, or we're both more sensitive to the hint of having faults that we dislike in other people.
Forth thought: Because Facebook is the suxx0r.
Fifth thought: Warhammer is on hold until I can afford a computer upgrade. Cross your fingers I get a decent bonus this year.
