Sometimes I Feel (Like A Very Small Girl's Blouse) October 30, 2007 4:16 PM   Subscribe

Sorry if I've offended. Let's bring disagreements here.

At the risk of seeming somewhat self-centered, there were a few comments in the "Viagra (in a needle) for women?" thread that lead me to believe I'm routinely pissing certain people off. Look, that's not what I want to do. Sorry if that's the case. If you have something you want to say about it, I guess it'd be good to hear about it here, rather than wasting space in a thread. And I'd rather get it out into the open, rather than wondering about it and then saying something else to piss people off.

I have a feeling it has something to do with what could be charitably called my 'polemical style' of relishing the invention of insults. I think I'll stop with that. I know I probably earned Pope Guilty as an enemy pretty quickly like that, for one. Sorry, Pope Guilty.

I was on the phone with Time Warner's fucking internet customer service for a fucking hour last night, doing that "Now turn your modem off" bullshit again and again, before they told me that "Oh, yeah, there's been a service outage in your area all day." I had to talk to four people before someone noticed this. WHAT THE FUCK, TIME WARNER?

I just got a new windshield and a local club put a postcard on it to promote Girls Gone Wild doing a taping there. It rained all night and the next morning it was stuck fast to my windshield. Even after using Goo Gone to peel it off, the imprint of the ad is stuck to the glass. So, now I have to drive around looking out a brand new $200 windshield with a permanent advertisement for Girls Gone Wild. FUCKING BULLSHIT LOCAL CLUB!

Honestly, what gets me is a sort of lower-grade version of konolia- while she's smugly Saved and Has Proof of God but she Won't Share It With You, Sinner, you come off in the atheism thread with this sort of complete dismissiveness, not to mention the insufferable snottiness in the g-shot thread. Here, examples:
A spiritually empty society inevitably overestimates the benefit of raw immediate pleasure.
and
Every public teaching that is based in opinion, educated or not, is a religious teaching. The second an atheists demands assent without knowledge, that atheist is a religious person. The real opposite of believe isn't disbelief; it's indifference. This person is certainly not indifferent.
I rather like the invention of insults, even if the "girl's blouse" line baffles me.

MetaFilter discussions would obviously go better with fewer uncharitable readings, which are what I feel lie at the root of any unpleasantness here. I can have a shouting match with any old passing cunt; arguments are more engaging if we are actually addressing one another's points.
Pope Guilty - "big girl's blouse" is an English insult of some vintage. It is further evidence of the foul and intellectually bankrupt nature of the koeselitzian project that he even dares to suggest it may somehow be something of his own invention. The man must be stopped!

First of all: I know who koeselitz is even though I sometimes confuse him and smedleyman together for reasons completely opaque to me. But every once in a while I think something like: "Wait! How's "smedleyman" a Nietzsche reference?" I believe I've promised koeselitz a beverage of his choice if we ever find ourselves in the same geographical region which makes me think that he's a good guy. I generally don't offer people beverages unless they're good people. Unless it's a beverage to the face, in which case all bets are off. But seriously, koeselitz is a fairly active commenter, you have to be pretty blinkered not to have noticed him. His comments can be jarring, but I've found him to be open to reasoned argument. But he's a good guy, as evidenced by his apology to Pope Guilty.

Second of some: Remember when knee-jerky put-downs where funny? I don't.

Third of whatsit: It's good when people air bullshit. Yeah, bullshit stinks whether it's enclosed or out in the open, but in a contained area the bullshit fumes can build up such a pressure that there's an explosion. Nobody wants a bullshit explosion.

Fourth of thisisn'tcuteanymore: Yeah, throwing out insults tends to alienate more people than it brings in.

Fifth: This was a perfectly cromulent use of MetaTalk.

Sorry to rerail the thread, but I found koeselitz's post a sensible way to handle the situation, and I'm going to actually respond to it. So there.

koeselitz: Taking shit is an inevitable consequence of a polemical style. Even those of us who appreciate a good verbal joust sometimes take things wrong (or right, even) and get bent out of shape, and those who prefer a nice rendition of Kumbaya are going to have a hissy fit. There are a number of MeFites it took me a while to appreciate because it's not always easy to tell garden-variety asshats from verbal jousters, and you're one of them. But I wouldn't worry about it in this case; like stavros says, you didn't say anything terrible in that thread. Your first comment was a tad gnomic, people jumped on you for it, lah de dah. Have a drink on me; tomorrow you will have forgotten this whole thing.

everybody, feel free to vent here

I fucking hate that there is no socially acceptable way to constantly show someone who doesn't really know you how much you love them.

All the guilt that springs from the feelings and (implied) accusations of being creepy and stalker-esque is such bullshit. I just want you to know that I love you. I Fucking Love You, okay? I wish there was just a button I could push every minute of every hour to prove it. That would make things so much easier for everyone.

But instead, I have to go on pretending like I don't care. Like I don't care if you look at me or read what I write. Like I don't care if our lives head in totally different directions from this point on. Like I don't care if the awesome-ness of us banding together to take on the fucking world is never manifested.

Because if I were to grab you by the shoulders and tell you how much I care and then show you What This World Is Really About, you would just freak out on me. The whole building would just implode with the societal norms that I would be taking down.

So we'll just have to continue leading our lives like we've been. For the safety of all the others. But thanks for the opportunity to vent. I feel like we made some real progress.

-A. There didn't seem to be a lot of heavy debate early and even though I knew they'd come out of the woodworking eventually, I figured the initial steam wasn't enough to carry it. B. This thread is already mostly derailed, I doubt anyone will mind.

-I think there's a big list somewhere that a girl in a colonial uniform put together that will explain everything. It's wicked long.

people who drive on cellphones - do you know what could happen to you, mr and mrs inattentive idiot with a suv and a cellphone? - you could get into an accident - the force of the accident could send the cellphone straight up your stupid nose - the cellphone itself could be implanted in your brain in such a manner that the best brain surgeon in the world would blanch at operating for fear of killing you - and therefore, your cellphone would remain inside of your otherwise well functioning brain as you recuperated from your injuries - and, as you realized how seriously your life had changed, three thoughts would occur to you

1 - "i wish i hadn't talked on my cell phone and driven"

2 - "i had no idea that my cellphone number was one off from 1-800-TEE-NHOS"

koeselitz: Sorry if I've offended.

Not me. Sometimes I agree with what you write, sometimes I don't, but when I disagree it doesn't make me think you're a Bad Person.

A spiritually empty society inevitably overestimates the benefit of raw immediate pleasure.

I like this Solzhenitsyn quote on the limits of materialism:
The turn introduced by the Renaissance evidently was inevitable historically. The Middle Ages had come to a natural end by exhaustion, becoming an intolerable despotic repression of man's physical nature in favor of the spiritual one. Then, however, we turned our backs upon the Spirit and embraced all that is material with excessive and unwarranted zeal. This new way of thinking, which had imposed on us its guidance, did not admit the existence of intrinsic evil in man nor did it see any higher task than the attainment of happiness on earth. It based modern Western civilization on the dangerous trend to worship man and his material needs. Everything beyond physical well-being and accumulation of material goods, all other human requirements and characteristics of a subtler and higher nature, were left outside the area of attention of state and social systems, as if human life did not have any superior sense.
So what's missing? H. Allen Orr:
The key question is: Is there any religious faith beyond supernaturalist religion that remains untouched by the enlightenment case? [Philip] Kitcher concludes that there might well be. He calls this final variety of faith "spiritual religion." Spiritual religion abandons both the supernatural and literalism and, in their place, offers ethical models of right action and moving portraits of nobly lived lives.
In this case, I wouldn't assert that this kind of cosmetic surgery is wrong, exactly, but it seems to me that it reflects a rather skewed sense of what's important.

Driving while phoning? That's just the tip of the iceberg. I hate the whole phucking phone phetish the world is on. Used to be, phones were devices in homes and offices that, unless you were a stockbroker, hollywood agent or teenage girl, you used maybe ten minutes a day, tops. Now, no-one under the age of forty seems to be able to do anything without simultaneously nattering to some other cretin about it.

And as if talking on the damn things isn't bad enough, everyone has to talk *about* them all the time too. "Have seen the new iTphone? It has a camera, a TV, video recorder and a 16-track digital recording studio. The built-in Apache web server fearures php and MySQL so you can simultaneouly podcast all your conversations. Plus it regualarly updates twitter with your GPS location and randomly pokes all your facebook contacts so you don't have to."

Well, sorry, but I think I'll keep doing it for a week or two. It's been a hard week out here in Denver. I still think it was a management problem that lost us that series; Terry Francona's just the best there is, that's flat it, and Clint Hurdle couldn't quite hack it; he made all the right decisions for two months, and then fell flat. I'd rather see the Sox win over the Yanks any day, though. Also, $50m less than the Yankees? We're, like, $150m behind you guys, if you count Matsuzaka's $50m negotiation agreement.

In general, to all, this was a nice thread. dogwalker, the comment is appreciated, and I hope you know how much. A very good deal, I'll just say. And the sentiment is returned in cold glasses to all at the table, that large quaffs may be taken.

In fact, I'm feeling somewhat warm, but we can all just say it's the beer, if that suits. Here, everybody. Look at some pictures of me and my wife out in Yellowstone a few weeks ago.

"Oh, and who squared: I'm with you wrt the CTA. You'd have thought that all the fares I've poured into their coffers could have bought a new cross-tie or two for their goddamn "slow zones," but apparently my money only defrayed the expenses associated with removing track, stations, buses, trains and functionality from the system. I'm walking from now on. It's a hell of a lot faster than the El."

Really? I was there just a couple weeks ago, and (aside from a random arson on the brown line) everything was fine, even the buses. I mean, it doesn't really matter to me, but the "we needz states money" ads seemed convincing, and I (being from the midwest) understand what construction looks like (slow zones on the Blue).

Maybe it's just because I live in LA and miss real mass transit, but the CTA seems to be an OK bureaucracy dealing bureaucratically with entrenched problems.

Retail people, when delivering change, coins first, then notes, please. The opposite, and the coins are sliding around on top of the notes and it's all an unnecessarily delicate balancing act. Why is this so difficult?

Ok. I may be a jerk, but I hadn't even commented yet. No need, since my compassion and sympathy both died during the Kaycee hoax. Although, considering I joined in 2005, it's possible they never existed.

A spiritually empty society inevitably overestimates the benefit of raw immediate pleasure.

That's probably true, Yoda, but it's a platitude passing as wisdom. Delivered by itself, into a discussion of orgasms, the remark sounds a little schoolmarmish.

Re:Solzhenitsyn:
Everything beyond physical well-being and accumulation of material goods, all other human requirements and characteristics of a subtler and higher nature, were left outside the area of attention of state and social systems, as if human life did not have any superior sense.
The whole paragraph that sentence belongs to is trite--the entire address is largely mystic nonsense--but this assertion is manifestly untrue. As if "the prevailing Western view of the world"--however Solzhenitsyn cares to define that--was ever opposed to--as if it wasn't actually the driving philosophy behind the creation of--all the national museums, orchestras, ballets, universities and schools, built in every Western country during the last 400 years!

Hanging out with them is like wearing tight sandy shorts on a sweaty uphill slog. And part of my day job is to get them to interact together on a regular basis. It is a thankless fucking task.

I'll see your HR managers and raise you New York City Department of Education HR managers. You'll note that that particular trifecta of obstructionism is an unbeatable hand of suck.

octobersurprise: As if "the prevailing Western view of the world" ... wasn't actually the driving philosophy behind the creation of--all the national museums, orchestras, ballets, universities and schools, built in every Western country during the last 400 years!

Museums, orchestras, and ballets are all moribund. They're regarded as a quaint and inferior form of entertainment compared to movies, television, and sporting events. (Philip Greenspun: "Go down to your local symphony hall or opera house, a building that very likely has recently benefitted from a $50-100 million renovation. The audience will be so old that you wonder why they didn't add a Medevac helipad on the roof. That seniors suffering from cardiac arrest aren't hauled out at every intermission is a hard-to-solve mystery.")

Universities and schools are certainly not moribund. But they serve an important economic purpose. For students, they provide valuable skills, and certification of those skills; for the economy as a whole, they provide a highly trained workforce. I'd agree that Solzhenitsyn could have mentioned the pursuit of knowledge (SCIENCE!) as an important non-material aspiration of Western civilization, but it doesn't have a great deal of force these days either: stories about the ignorance of the general public don't get much of a reaction.

I think Solzhenitsyn's right. Looking at the news, we tend to focus on material measures of well-being--physical health, poverty, obesity, safety, etc. We tend to overlook non-material issues. To take one important issue: How do we learn about ethics? Who are our "ethical models of right action"? (In my view, we have none; instead, we have celebrities.) We've had some spectacular ethical failures in the public sphere lately, but they're just a symptom: the real problem starts much earlier, with our failure to develop a strong sense of ethics.

When I worked retail (in a bookstore), I always gave people back their change coins first, then bills. I would also either put the receipt in the bag, or if they didn't want a bag, slide it into one of their books like a bookmark. It was always kept separate from the bills! (I will admit, however, that if the change given back was less than $20, I never counted it out for them. That always seemed like a big waste of time to me.)

I still think it was a management problem that lost us that series; Terry Francona's just the best there is, that's flat it, and Clint Hurdle couldn't quite hack it

I don't think so. How about, the Boston pitchers and hitters are much, much better at baseball than the Colorado pitchers and hitters. The National League is terrible, any of the AL playoff teams would have been favored in a seven game series against the Rockies (and maybe Detroit and Seattle too), and the real championship happened in the ALCS.

/disgruntled Indians fan who happened to be in downtown Boston at the time of the damned victory parade yesterday.

Also, I'm 25, and what's up with the National League sending these teams to the World Series that are younger than me? Diamondbacks, Marlins, Rockies. Sometimes they even win the thing! It's disgraceful. Wheretofore art thou, Dodgers, Cubbies, Mets? You play in major media markets; have some pride.
posted by Kwine at 1:46 PM on October 31, 2007


May the Cubs never get to the World Series. Ideally, they would never place for in the National League Central.

The National League is terrible.

The National League just doesn't have the pay roll of the American League teams. Plus, they're at a disadvantage because the AL can put a guy that is all Mac at hitting in the DL spot, while the NL usually gets stuck filling the spot with their 9th best hitter.

Meanwhile when the AL plays in an NL park, NL pitchers can't hit (except you Gallardo and Owings) so it's not really a disadvantage that AL pitchers never take batting practice.

Kwine: "I don't think so. How about, the Boston pitchers and hitters are much, much better at baseball than the Colorado pitchers and hitters."

Look, I would've liked a Cleveland/Rockies series, too, but this is just bullshit. We're a good team, we've played great baseball. All y'all who seem to think that the greatness of a team is related to how long they've been around... why? How are the Yankees, for example, anything like the Yankees I grew up with? Answer: the uniforms. You're upset because of a uniform? Meh.

Seeing the Marlins kick the Yankees' collective ass a couple of years ago in the series was the best series in years for me. I saw some of those guys play minor league ball for the Isotopes in Albuquerque back when I lived in NM a few years before. They were kids, yes, but they were just guys who loved playing ball. I loved those games. And Josh Beckett... wow. The NL is about upstarts and rising stars like that. The AL is about money.

Also, I think you underestimate Terry Francona. He's really a superlative manager with a well-adapted system and an incredibly intelligent approach to the game.

When I count out the change for you, I do it in descending order of value. This is so you don't stand there like embarrassing yourself, struggling to count it yourself to make sure I gave you the right amount back -- I did, really -- by counting upward from the smallest denomination to the largest, for some ungodly reason, and doing it out loud while the rest of my customers wait and glare at me.

That's why I give you your change like that. You do not have to "balance" anything. If your change is forty-six dollars and seventy-three cents, then here you go: twenty, forty, five and six, and (dumping your change on top), seventy-three cents. Now say thank you, close your hand around the whole pile of bills and coins, put it all in your front pocket, and get out of my line. On the way to your car, reach into your pocket and pull the bills out. The change will stay there because of gravity. Put the bills in your wallet.

You're welcome, sir.
posted by churl at 4:23 PM on November 1, 2007


Always "count down" change, starting with coins. So, if the item was $2.37, the customer gives a $20, the change is $17.63. You count, "Your blasted trinket was $2.37, (hold out hand) .63 is $3, $4, $5, five is ten, ten is twenty. Now get out of my store! Have a nice day!"
