It's tough when what you think you are projecting is not what everyone is seeing.




It's tough when what you think you are projecting is not what everyone is seeing. What if you are trying to project Jean Arthur but the vibe you give off is Bette Davis?

Boy, don't I know it. I think I'm giving off "Cary Grant" but it's more like "Freddy Kreuger".

(I think I get it)

But you see you have some self awareness, which quite a few people lack in this crazy mixed up world.

To key is to be humble.

I bet you do chickenlittle. The best jokes are the ones that a lot of people don't get don't you think?

Like overlooked gems.

Heh. My dad always used to say that the funniest jokes of all were the ones only you got.

He was a little nuts, but right on that.

Are you messing with the Bette? She was a hot piece back in the day. Be a sport Troop and find some nice pics of her.

Troop's posted some very nice Bette pix.

And this post has nothing to do with Bette.

Are you high? I quote:

"What if you are trying to project Jean Arthur but the vibe you give off is Bette Davis?"

With a nice picture of some blonde I assume is the former, and a harridan pic of who I think is the latter. How is this not about Bette Davis?

Yeah, maybe she didn't age so well, but I always think of the Bette of, say, "Now, Voyager." She was a hot piece of ass! And personality wise, IalwaysSTM, it would have been like clamping your rod in a paint mixer. No holes barred. Fuck you to death.

I confess I know nothing of this Arthur chick. Related to Bea?

You're being too literal. It's about someone (else) giving off vibes. That's Davis, but that's Davis as Baby Jane.

Look, it's like Plato said. You're in a cave, looking at shadows. And one of those shadows looks like Bette Davis.

Am I getting through to you?

I adore Jean Arthur! One of my favorite actresses.

knox said...

...even though this post is NOT about Jean Arthur or Bette Davis. Please don't let me ever piss off trooper.

Best is to get to the point in life where you tell the joke and if they don't get it so what? You get it. And get it out.

Whew, am I pissed today.

LOL, knox. Yup! :)
