Pronoun Chatter

 I sat and read over aa Twitter comment today, and it's been on my mind.

Topic?  Trying to play the pronoun game with hyper-sensitive people.

In dealing with people...even for a 1-minute situation at a coffee shop or pizza situation....I really don't care to KNOW you.  I don't want to know your name, your likes, your hardships, your woes, or your mental condition.  It's nothing personal, but you can figure on a 365 day cycle....there's only about forty people that I meet multiple times.  The other 3,000 people....it's probably a single chance meeting...where I'm asking for a cup of coffee, turning the car over for a tune-up, or asking the butcher just for deli items.   

To get all into this pronoun business....it's like you expect me to return or really get to know you.  That's not going to happen.

If I had to compliment you on clothing?  Well...even when I worked in the Air Force period....other than telling you to get a haircut or shine your boots....I'm not going to say much positive over your attire.  

It just seems like some people are asking for people to get to know them...in some vast way that isn't normal.  

Five Things I Expect To Happen In 2024

 1.  I expect some revealing of alien/UFO technology to occur, and at least two companies named as holding of such technology.  One will be in the military technology sector, and the other in vaccine technology.  Both will have their CEOs subpoenaed to a House hearing, and both will refuse to engage...citing a 1970 Nixon executive order.  

2.  I expect at the Republican convention (15 to 18 July) that CNN will utter the phrase of 'Hitler' at least 788 times in describing Trump.  By the end, some non-CNN analyst will suggest that CNN staged a propaganda show....worthy of the Nazi regime of the 1930s.  

3.  I expect Governor Newsom to emerge out of the Democratic Convention (19 to 20 August) as the Presidential candidate.  I expect various riots and demonstrations to occur...making the focus of the Newsom less productive during the convention there in Chicago.

4.  I expect around 15,000 high school kids to return after summer vacation...to self-identify as 'demons'...with actual demonic names, and acting out as crazy-nutcases as they progress into the new year of high school.

5.  I expect both the Air Force and Army to admit major recruiting problems, and showing a willingness to pay a $100,000 bonus for a five-year contract.  Even that will not change the trend.  

On The Topic Of Leprosy

 I saw this in health news....new outbreak in the border states of the US....Leprosy.

It is a curable disease, but it takes a bit of effort.

As for going from one person to another?  You'd have to be around the Leprosy guy/gal for weeks at a time....for you to get it. 

Freaking out folks?  Well, yeah....if you said in some community that it'd been discovered...people would have some serious level of fear.
