One of the advantages of typing things out, as opposed to saying said things out loud, is that there's the opportunity for reflection before submission. Obviously, but case in point - in trying to explain the above RFI, what was supposed to be a few paragraphs of "isn't it embarassing when people 'hate' tv celebrities/distant co-workers/as a result of the void created by the inherent ambiguity present in almost all human relationships" turned out, on further reading, to be more like "I dislike hating people who are different from me, because that's not really cool anymore, is it?". Yep, not exactly the same thing being said there. After a few minutes of stony mortification, I deleted the offending paragraph, before reflecting on my almost-career as an accidental racist-revisionist. Good afternoon.
