Boredom has been destroying joy since the beginning of time.
But is
also the mother of invention.
So I propose a role for clinical psychologists and the medical
profession.
prescribe activities to human beings to make them less bored.
Study the psyche and what makes a person tick, use
evidence
from
other people to provide precedent. (People who are miserable
and
like science fiction are likely to like X)
There we go, that's the idea.

I became a master at not looking bored, even when I was
because I didn't want him to have the satisfaction of being
right. |

There's this thing called irony that those with a sophisticated command of the English language sometimes use ... |
|
| |
... but then you wouldn't know about that. |

Obvious intent: Correcting allegedly incorrect grammar. |

Subtle subtext: Mildly salacious innuendo about [blissmiss]. |

Pick the one you like best. |

Do we get to do the Voldemort Dark Mark thing, too ? |

Don't be so negative, 8th. I think it's cute that girls can sometimes get degrees now. And it shows all the nay-sayers that affirmative action _does_ work. |
|

And then I read the annotations. (Was something deleted
here in between the 8ths?) |

Yes, [kdf] killed a few annos, but we have them logged if you want them back. Mainly about filling skulls with snakes. |
