And now it's official

Holy Cow: the other day a 72 year old sat in front of me and said
"I am so sick and tired of stupid people"
and I could totally relate to her
Comfort: lol..
u have the wisdom of a 72 year old..!
:)
Holy Cow: ha haI have known that for a long time :-)
PS- I feel, at this juncture, obliged to admit that I have also, on one occasion, related to the phenomenological position of an infant. She was sitting across from me on the Delhi metro, and our eyes met. Me, tired after a day long day of psychopathologising, and her, forced to sit uncomfortably cramped on her mother's lap. Her expression was one of sheer existential angst.
So there you go. Things I can relate to include an infant with an existential crisis, and a frustrated 72-year-old.
Such are the chatte and batte of my thaali*
