First it was the personal right to fly to China
on a whim -- mustn't abridge that! Then it
was more important to be grateful, maybe
ladylike, rather than mention anything
about the styrofoam take-away boxes
for barbecue and sides. These worth
fighting with me about because grace
clearly doesn't extend to me ... who is
emphatically no aspirer to the name of
ladylike. Is this the truth? Some might
see the mark of patriarchy that puts
a target tween my eyes when I opine. But
I feel it there and feel I'm right.
Besides that later the sheepish question about
the lifetime of styrofoam -- he didn't even know
what he was preaching to me and all about my
unacceptability. How often will I endure such?
Don't get me started on nuclear.

"...all about my unacceptability..." Maybe you need to wear a button (but not between the eyes) that says, "EXCEPTIONALLY UNACCEPTABLE." Then he could have taken you with even more grains of salt. Is that what you mean? Is it time to prepare a chart that gives the decomposition times of various types of plastic and the risks of air pollution when burning them? Might be handy to distribute at meetings. I LOVE THAT LAST LINE! A bit of humor escaping? (Macoff)
