FRIENDS TALK

[KoYue]

Sharpies are so much better than nail polish.

[Athos]

....yes they are..as long they aren't on nails.

[KoYue]

How come?

[Athos]

For a girl it doesn't bother me...But guys those guys who wear sharpie on their nails...that bothers me...I was born and raised as being traditional, gentleman like, and proper--to an extent of course. But wearing a permanent ink is just absurd in my old eyes.

[KoYue]

So I guess that makes me kinda absurd?

[Athos]

XD Are you a guy wearing nail polish?

[KoYue]

No. I'm a girl coloring her nails with sharpies.

[Athos]

XD Then you're okay then. My bad for not better setting up my argument more clearly. XP Now back to my original dilemma.

[KoYue]

Ah, what is your original dilemma?

[Athos]

Writing an essay about J.S.Mill's On Liberty...I have an 18 page excerpt. I was at work, and I had a friend look up the book for me...So I went to the section and I searched the whole Philosophy shelf. I found the book and bought it. >.> Mill is hard to understand. I'm reading the introduction and it's giving me quite an insight.

[KoYue]

Oh, geez . . . sounds rather daunting.

[Athos]

It was at first...However, part of me doesn't want to read the text only out of fear. That fear is that this will open my eyes into exposing myself to a "liberal" and somewhat radical work, will change my own views so that I would be somewhat a "liberal" myself. The other part of me however, is pressing on to read it to give me an insight into the origins of liberalism, as well as their philosophy. I'm reminding myself of a phrase I once heard. It went something like, "I'll read your Koran, but you'll have to read my Bible."

[KoYue]

Liberal is always good. Or if not liberal, pretending to like whatever disturbs you so the other person doesn't get offended.

[Athos]

I suppose it can be...*sigh* Maybe I was too early to be administered the Litmus Test. XD For both me and the book.

[Cloud Leonhart]

Lol Try black nail polish, Nii-chan. You'll have nails like Hana-chan.

My brother used to wear black nail polish waaaaaayyy back when I was like...five...and when he had that mullet...thing.

Reading that entire conversation...completely confused me...it's too early for my brain to work.

[Athos]

XD don't worry about it Cloud...Well, I finally wrote my essay. That was an evil essay
