Max Herman & Writing comment

You may write that you write, but you still cannot write,
and are absolutely illiterate. Not all the education in the
world will save you from illiteracy.

Who wants to be saved? Doesn't this imply an operation to help people vis-a-
vis teaching, which is an ego-based operation? Thus inherently idiotic?

Dear–if you want to be illiterate stick to your guns.
Don't try to pass judgement on literate comments.

No, it doesn't. Not automatically.

Not automatically.

Nothing is 'inherently idiotic'.

For an illiterate one, logic sure seems to have
a cracking whip over your brain 'Fido'.

Mommy, I don't care, but Daddy said I could judge literate comments because he
passed me strong literate genes.

Well, I say it is so, so it is so.

Can I quote you on that?

Logic is a tool to play with once and a while. It has its useful moments.

Meaningless idiocy.

As above.

No, because you don't understand it.

No, I mean what I mean. Not what you THINK I mean.
Avoid dictating to me what I mean. Brain-ape.

Knee-jerk lexicla shuffling is not subject to 'understanding'.
What's with the 'understanding' obsession? Oh yes,
the agreement with your internal noise.

> Is "not really" the opposite of "really"?

No. There is no relation.
