a little butterfly...I don’t know which is worse: the permanent smile of TeeVee presenters or the Jesuits’ grand hubris about soul cleansing.
It’s a difficult choice, till one realizes that the pretty female smiles that are like inverted coat-hangers with teeth the size of white piano keys are about a horse race, or a local international golf championship, while the Jesuit hubris is about flagellation, sadness, educating junior into the art of belief in sin, or something like that, by choice.
And no. I am not a pessimist. I enjoy life despite appearing grumpy. Grumpy is the privilege of old people who have passed their used-by date a long time ago and have a catalogue of accidental mistakes to their names, while seeing the up and coming idiots doing the same bad decisions by not wanting to know better from the previous idiot elders like me. We try to warn them about the quick sands of life, but they don’t hear us, as our spruiking platform is more like our next hole in the ground of life, six feet under.
But we cannot be stopped to try, unless our brains packs it in and we start to forget our own names — and end up being spoon-fed by Bupa.
