it's the old alchemical transformation

Some people say too much out of insecurity, some people say too little out of insecurity.

Some people say too much out of over confidence, trying to bombard you with their righteousness, some people say too little out of arrogance, and a belief that silence = significance and depth.

Some people say loads because they have loads to say, other people say little because ... and so on.

Take people not for how MUCH they say something, but what they say, and the way they say it. That'd be a far better judge.

Anyway, you're all gonna have to excuse me; I'm off to write a 500 word reply on a thread about Kim Deal's ankles.

Meeting self-styled intellectuals in pubs can be one of life's more wearing experiencies, especially if all one's after is an evening of quiet pint-supping and the chance to talk total crap.

All the most intelligent people I know (mostly women, it's worth noting) enjoy nothing more than an evening of getting pissed and talking 'bums and willies'. I have a theory (yawn) that you're not truly intelligent if you can't talk puerile bollocks. Very possibly something that's only true on this side of the pond.

I get annoyed when so-called intellectuals put down the regular folks.

One man's crap is another man's crap too. Case closed, and so is the pub.
