Well don't you just hate it when people ask you mindless questions that make you wonder where they left their brains.It makes you question the presence of their brains.Those pathetic turds just seem to spout whatever nonsense that comes out of their heads.Then again,maybe I'm being really mean here.Shouldn't I be grateful that they are actually making conversation with pathetic and anti-social me?But sometimes,I really can't stand inane small talk.It is a waste of time,and I only carry on the conversation out of sheer politeness.I provide monotone answers,while just nodding in the right places.Most of the time,my mind wanders and they suddenly ask me stuff like '... right?' and I will be like 'huh?' because I haven't been listening at all.But,I have ways to manipulate the situtation such that they will repeat the question,and will not doubt my attentiveness.
There are times when people ask me 'Why are you so quiet'.Well mostly,I can tolerate this question,and I reply by just smiling and shrugging.But for some other people who ask this question,I really cannot stand it.I mean..why the bleeding hell do you think I'm not talking to you?How about trying,because I have nothing to say?I should think that was pretty obvious.If I had something to say,I would have said it already wouldn't I?The blatant stupidity of people sometimes..Okay,they may just be trying to generate conversation,but can you say something more interesting?Something that I can actually talk about instead of answering such 'we-both know-it's-stupid' kind of questions.Of course,I may be simply biased towards some people,and don't even feel like talking to them at all.That is completely possible,and those people probably couldn't carry off an intelligent conversation anyway.I am being really mean here,but I am getting pretty irritated.Especially when I'm in a rush for time,yet I have to slow down to answer such things.Maybe some time when I have nothing better to do,or maybe when my brain has become completely rusty,I'll take up the offer of having such conversations.Right now,I don't think so.I suppose it actually has to do with the people asking the questions.Well..I could think of more stupid questions,but I'm tired of typing now.[LINE] [u][b]Colours of the Wind - Vanessa Williams[/b][/u] You think I'm an ignorant savage, and you've been so many places, I guess it must be so, but still I cannot see, How the savage one is me, How can there be so much that you don't know, You don't know,
You think you own whatever land you land on, The Earth is just a dead thing you can claim, But I know every rock, and tree and creature, Has a life, has a spirit, has a name,
You think the only people who are people, Are the people who look and think like you, But if you walk the footsteps of a stranger, You learn things you never knew, you never knew,
Have you ever heard the wolf cry to the blue corn moon? Or asked the grinning bobcat why he grinned? Can you sing with all the voices of the mountain? Can you paint with all the colours of the wind? Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?
Come run the hidden pine trails of the forest, Come taste the sun-sweet berries of the earth, Come roll in all the riches all around you, And for once, never wonder what they're worth,
The rainstorm and the river are my brothers, The heron and the otter are my friends, And we are all connected to each other, In a circle, in a hoop that never ends,
How high does the sycamore grow? If you cut it down, then you'll never know, And you'll never hear the wolf cry to the blue corn moon, whether we are white or copper-skinned, Can you can sing with all the voices of the mountain? Can you paint with all the colours of the wind?
You can own the Earth and still, All you'll own is earth until, You can paint ,with all the colours of the wind...

Sometimes, when I'm bathing, I'll tilt my head back and let the water from the shower-head collect in my mouth. When my mouth's filled up, I'll start breathing, and that makes the phlegm in my nose and throat loosen up and collect. My system is then clear.
