I try to be nice


Yup. I'm a nice guy, I really am. To a point. But then, inevitably, I have to leave the house. Or get on the computer. :)

  1. Oh man, I know what you mean. Whenever I'm out in traffic, or in public with a lot of people, my admiration of humanity declines quickly. As long as I can stay home I love people as a whole, but when I meet too many of them I change my mind.

  2. "When you're born into this world, you get a ticket to the freak show. When you're born in America, you get a front row seat."

    My favorite line from the movie "Men In Black:"

    " A PERSON is smart. PEOPLE are dumb, panicky dangerous animals and you know it."

  3. Actually, I just thought this cartoon was funny. The people I meet aren't so bad. Just human. Anonymous online comments will certainly make you despair for our species, but people are never that bad face-to-face.

    On the other hand, natural human traits which served us well living in small, isolated villages - superstition, herd mentality, suspicion of outsiders - serve us poorly in the 21st Century.
