Ambiguity

So the second part of the two-part series entitled "How to Get Smarter" will be cancelled due to the fact that I never had a second part, I just wanted to call it a "two-part series." Or if I did have an idea for the second part, I would have forgotten it by now since it has been a few days since my last post. Nevertheless, I have officially made a vow to post once a day for the next five days starting today. The formal pledge can be seen on Facebook as my status. I also tweeted it (@BronBronNCo23). I am aware that my Twitname is outdated and I apologize.

I will now begin an eight-part series entitled "Societal Flaws: Why People Struggle with Life." That title is very tentative.

Theorem 16: Our society is cursed with perpetual ambiguity

It seems like almost nothing is taken literally these days, amiright? When asked about my love interests, I was recently asked "are you talking to person X?" My first thought was, "no... I'm talking to you. You can clearly see I am not talking to anyone else." This of course was not what the person was asking me, so I instead responded, "Well I'm not not talking to person X, if you know what I mean." This person apparently did not know what I meant. This person was expecting more of a response like, "no we are just friends" or maybe "yeah she's real hott." It makes no sense to me either.

And where I come from, "hanging out" is a very casual term meaning not doing homework but also not partying. It is a term meaning the middle ground, not a term meaning "on the verge of dating."

As for "hooking up," I don't even know. My neighbor's mom emailed me a few days ago saying she was coming up to campus and that maybe we could hook up. I felt so awkward that I couldn't even bring myself to reply to her email. Look at what society is doing to me...

The list continues with the term "texting." There is nothing about texting that should imply that you are interested in the person, even if it a person of my opposite sex. We all text our mom, and that's just weird.

The list goes on, "watching a movie" "getting some" etc. As a wise woman once told me, what happens in vagueness, stays in vagueness. Enough said. Not that that really makes sense, but it sounds cool. Oh, and she did not come up with that.

So, in conclusion, I have decided to go this entire week without any ambiguity in my language. I will take everything literally and answer every question like a wise guy. I do that a lot already, but I'm just going to do it more.

Alright, 10:28, two minutes before sticks, perfect timing. Let's go Tara, time for you to get farmed.
