Feeling a little under-endowed this morning? Moving past one of my
all-time favorite topics (tits!) maybe there's another way to see the
lying, and if you can see it that way, it might help your practice, if you
have something you call that.
There are words and there are meanings. Some people listen to the words.
Other people listen to the meanings. It's the words that get fact-checked
while meanings are left to slide. Meanings are what sets the path of words
that leads to them.
White man speak with forked (ambiguous) tongue and few facts. White lady
says words always hooked to how politically-correct she is.
Maybe politics has been recognized for the snakepit that it is, and maybe
the flat-chested-women of the world will set things straight and get bigger
titties as a bonus. Maybe government will become something more useful to
the governed than some prim nanny with an army of niceness-bullys to back
every new restriction of law with a threat. "Clickit or ticket" is what
the asswipes put up on roadsigns hereabouts, maybe we need helmet laws for
walking too, mother knows best.
