When I settled on this morning's topic I was wary of its effect, since my global readership numbers are declining at what I consider to be an alarming rate . "IT", the Decline, makes sense, no one wants to read the same depressing shit every fucking day . Reality can be BRUTAL and I will offer no illusion {ill lusion} to mitigate its True substance . I have decided to offer a "Bummer Alert" to notify those that can't take me [my words] of impending negative drama, where drama is used in its theatrical sense, that of Shakespeare and his, "All the World is a Stage" . We say, "The Drama is unfolding" to obviate any good feeling that the reader may expect . The so-called 'Hippie' lexicon is fraught with drug references, many of the words in it are derived from fantastical and "Alice-In-Wonderland" phrases, too numerous to cite here . I mean, I could always note, "DON'T BOTHER" but I WANT to Bother, I'm botherful*, besides being irascible, cantankerous, acerbic, surly and dyspeptic . Being an old man has linguistic and rhetorical advantages, be they odious and foul . I have always admired old assholes who think they can 'get away' with being blunt, rude, callous, gross and disgusting .
I have issues .
