Morning and Evening Thoughts. In reverse.

[wolven7]

Panacea - [Shiver]--- If I were to give the Russian Space Ministry twenty billion dollars, and then ressurect John F Kenedy, do you think I'd be honoured or revilled?

This morning, my thought is "Fuck You, I'm not writing the whole thing over again, just because you don't like it."

I will do what I can to bring this paper in accord with the "Response-Not-Positivist" bullshit he's looking for, but i'm not starting completely over. (Tool - [Parabola]). I still want to vomit, at the sheer level of bullshitery. It's like an argument too far outside of the Orthodoxy can't even be evaluated. Logial moves were made, and you don't even want to try to look at them, examine their validity? Just write it off, from the beginning as "Too Ambitious"? What about the theory, you asshole? What about the mother fucking work?

I'm still quite angry, this morning, as I'm sure you see. I have so much work to do this weekend, it makes me want to curl into the smallest, tiniest little ball i can, and then just explode, forever.

I'm going to go shower, for a while. See you, later today, I guess.

The work expected

[karishi.livejournal.com]

Yeah, even in grad-level there will be teachers who think their job is to evaluate how well the students say things they've heard before. You've got to admit, it's a far easier job than examining the validity of an entirely new concept. How do you weigh it? I had one teacher who didn't know but erred on the side of favor, which worked out well for my grades but always made me feel a little guilty. I just wrote the least likely thesis that still had things pointing to it, and I aced the paper (sure, the fact that I'm a pretty fucking good writer helped, but that's not the point).
I guess the point is to seethe but understand it's his problem that he's a mental isolationist. Heck, include the problems that arise from not being open to concepts, as part of the new iteration of the paper. Give the man his fair warning of what he'll do to himself.
And in the midst of all this, remember: Holding anger is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die. Don't simply Be Angry. Do what must be done, about the problem that is this man.

And that's exactly the thing I'm trying to figure out. Thank you.
