i've had 2 minor irritations today. i just feel like ripping someone into shreds. because i am civil, i will do it here.

i wish i had a more eloquent way of doing that, of disparaging and publicly insulting someone who pissed me off in a small way, even if you didn't mean it.

urgh. if not for the fact that life is made out of debts that we owe, and that you can owe things to people you've never even met, owe things to people who don't deserve it, and, thanks to whoever invented the marvellous concept of human dignity, owe things to oneself, everything would collapse, because i'd be more predisposed to offing the next person who pissed me off before i did the same to them.

it takes discipline to keep the social balance of payments in order.
