Possibly completely insane, if you're to believe the voices, but a genius none the less.
Better yet, put "spoiler alert" on mens underwear. Back or front, shouldn't really matter.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

"Disappointment alert" on the front would be more accurate in many cases.

CIJS,
How many teachers are brilliant in their field of study and brilliant/highly effective in the art of instruction? I wonder how many students would be appreciative of an instructor who had both things going for him or her? How many teachers are appreciative of inquisitive/intellectually curious students who actually want to learn and even challenge the teacher and the curriculum?

I'm like that about seeing doctors 

But...
but doctors (and especially surgeons) are awesome people. Full of wit and sophistication (I said WIT, dammit!)
You'll never find a better group of people.
Yeah maybe but I've had some bad experiences, a few years back I was having trouble with my waterworks and was sent by my doc to have a cystoscopy, as you'll know it involves having a instrument inserted into the bladder via the todger. It was really really painful, but what made it worse was my todger for some unknown reason decided to disguise itself as a button mushroom  very embarrassing. I couldn't get out of there quick enough. I've not seen my doctor since.

In my opinion, those technically trained for the discipline they are teaching enjoy inquisitive students. I would love to have taught AP courses (math and physics) when I did teach school. But there were too few students to make up a class- it was a small private school. Then again, when I was at the university, I've had profs that couldn't teach to save their lives, both in physics. Brilliant? I've had experience with a couple of them. One worked as a consultant and taught at a local university. I'd put him close to Maxwell, though I don't have any experience with Maxwell's teaching ability. Him and two other guys that were direct employees were that bright. It was great working with people of that caliber.

We are eating dinner at a restaurant :
T makes some sort of gay wrist movement.
Me: don't do that. It's gay.
T: I know.
Me: Rob, watch out. T has the gay.
T: I got it from eating too many chicken nuggets as a kid.
This is my 👪. This is normal.

This feeling of apathy.
I’m tired. I need more sleep.
Thanks, but it’s not working for me. I tried, ya know? You know I did.
Ship sailed, S. Had you said the same thing back then, I would’ve been thrilled. Sorry. It’s too late.
I need to start working overtime. Don’t plan stuff with me, A. I’ll be busy.
I really don’t feel like doing anything. I don’t want to go for a beer. I don’t want to take my road trips anymore. I don’t want to date. I don’t want visitors. I don’t want phone calls. I’m not depressed. I’m just tired. Maybe a weekend in bed would work. I need to sleep.
I’m not impressed.
I’m not turned on.
My car needs work.
I need to buy a good book.
I’m so friggin tired! Maybe sleeping in one of these days will help, but for now...
... I feel like I’m over it. It being everything lol I feel so lazy to smile back, say hi, take a sip, respond. Bla bla bla. Boring.
I’m thinking it’s the lack of rest. A year of driving every weekend out of town to find whatever I was looking for has really taken its toll. I need to park my car for a while.
(Finishes packing her bag.) Sigh. Why did I make plans? I’m so tired.

CIJS-
You don't know this but I've learned a lot about myself while hanging out with you over the last 6 months. Accidental revelations. Funny how answers come from unexpected places. I hope we get to keep hanging out but there's no way of knowing. In the meantime, I'll enjoy it while it lasts.

CIJS, the last two payroll requests I submitted were 3 and 10 weeks ago. Neither has been acted on. You're taking too much out of my check, and you owe me reimbursement for expenses. You don't answer my emails, or anyone else's apparently.
You suck at your job.
You're my manager. You're aware of the situation. You, the other guy, you're HIS manager. You're aware of the situation as well. Both of you have been aware for almost two years that our HR fucks off employee requests and doesn't reimburse or handle payroll changes in a timely manner.
You both also suck at your job.

CIJS: You fucked up a bacon salmoura. You had the salt weighted for you, I added the proper water proportion. I know that you dropped a bag and just broomed the salt to the waste, but didn0't tell me. Salt in bacon is there for a reason. Couldn't you thought to tell me that you dropped it? It was too hard for me to get another 25Kg of salt?
If it was up to me, you'd be eating bland bacon for the next year. all 1000 kg of it.
