Have you ever wondered why Americans are boring to hang out with? Because they are uptight. They won’ tell you what they know. They’re afraid you’ll take their job if they tell you what they know.
Nobody’s left, nobody’s innocent.
That’s how the system works.
that was my friend Dave talking. We split a bottle of Jim Beam and talked about America. “A lot of electrons are having sex” he told me. That explained everything.
I’ll tell you what I know, and it’s something I’ve been meaning to talk to you about. It’s that you don’t put apostrophes in plural nouns, like Americans. You are an incredible writer, but poor punctuation sometimes detracts from your style.

I think you need to break out more bad punctuation! Let it become infused in your style, it will set you apart from the masses. Here’s an example:
Rachel’s,, I hop this Bad, pun;ctuation ma’kes you pop! a blood vessel… in your temple?
All in fun, of course.

This reminds me of a piece of conversation in My Dinner with Andre. It was about the differences between Tibetan and American ways of expressing emotion in discussions. If you haven’t, see it. You can’t miss it.
