"How nice - to feel nothing, and still get full credit for being alive."

~Vonnegut; Slaughterhouse-Five

So there is a bookstore. I love books, I especially love the self-help books in this particular place. Though I must say, my imagination has always served me up with the -- ah, shall we say, finest forms of assistance?

Mm.

I found a copy of Vonnegut's Cat's Cradle which I'm keeping, and Slaughterhouse-Five which I'm reading. I also found a few volumes of Iron Man comic books, which I've taken all the copies of and hidden.

	And that's fine. You don't have to like it. You're free to prefer the plays. But that doesn't make anything Dorian said incorrect. You could argue that the way it was worded seemed arrogant, but ultimately, the person he was talking up was Oscar Wilde, not Dorian Gray. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I didn't say he was incorrect. Or arrogant. Eames did. I don't really give a fuck if he thinks he's special or not. Or if he's arrogant. Whatever, I'm arrogant. (Reply to this) (Parent)

	I appreciate it, but really, there isn't any point. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Well, the point is that people shouldn't just be assholes to you for no reason. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	The fact that you're used to it doesn't make it okay. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	How? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I can't tell what it is you like about me more, the fact I make you the optimist or the fact you're convinced I need saving. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	You think I stand up for you because I think you need saving? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tony \| Dorian hedonism 2013-06-19 12:25 am UTC (link)
	You're a superhero. You think everything needs saving. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Tony \| Dorian tonystark 2013-06-19 12:44 am UTC (link)
	Maybe. But I don't really think you need more than most. And that's not why I stand up for you. I'm not... damsel in distressing you. I know that it bothers me more than it bothers you when people say things like that. I just don't like hearing people who don't know you say things about you that I know aren't true.
