You are funny…not on purpose so it’s kinda like not to be able looking away from a fatal accident, but it still is funny reading your unaware self-taunts 🙂 Everybody knows and sees your flaws but some of them(not me) want to protect your feelings…and that’s the reason they say to you that you are right and than turn around shaking their heads and you do not even see it…🙂 So much to reality perception… ---
