The weird thing about the Internet is

That no one is ever  goofy.

They aren’t  overwhelmed, or unsure, or stupid, or idiosyncratic, , and they speak in  short witty bursts, recounting the fascinating details of their day, complete with a soundtrack, and a bibliography.

 

They’re  all clever, in a Gatsby-an way…

 

 

I wonder what planet these people are posting from.

I guess that is the thing about writing — you have time to consider and edit until it comes out the way you want it. As opposed to real time conversation, where you can put your foot in your mouth.
