Kla, I still remember you saying in 8th grade English with Mr. Hampe that Heidi Kriteman shouldn't be cast in whatever play we were reading in class that day because "she couldn't feel her part." I found that VERY INTERESTING--mostly because it corroborated my own catty feelings toward Ms. Kriteman.
I, also, have disproven your uninterestingness.
Nothing anyone ever says is of any real interest... it's all about what someone else finds interesting, then proceeds to turn it into. Lather, rinse, repeat... and hey presto! Culture!

THE TINY SPECTRE OF DEATH FINDS MORTALS TO BE UNINTERESTING GENERALLY. IN MUCH THE WAY THAT BEETHOVEN WAS NOT ESPECIALLY INTERESTED IN THE HOPES AND DREAMS OF HIS PIANO KEYS.
