Jun. 8th, 2004 02:05 pmYou do something someone doesn't like, and they tell the whole damn world. You do something to help them, and they never mention it to anyone. Because, after all, then they'd have to admit they were wrong about you.
A whole lot of people assume they know the truth about me without ever asking me. This is not a complaint. Neither is the above. These are simple observations of fact.
It's also interesting how someone will announce the news of someone else's life as though it is their right to do so. And in the interest of keeping people from "getting the wrong idea," they tell half-truths, state irrelevancies, and call their opinions fact.
