New I can't figure out the balancing act
I have to sing and dance my ass off to get the interview - then I'm supposed to sandbag it? I thought I was supposed to be dazzling. But maybe not too dazzling so as not to outshine the others... I don't know.


In Java, you can't escape the creepy feeling.

New By now could there be underground classes
with specimen dialogues (perhaps featuring a freshly captured, trussed-up Authentic PHB) -- illustrating how the minds of these folks function?


(Seems clear that one's ordinary processes of deduction are relatively useless in - imagining how one would perform via a broken methodology. This seems perilously close to one classic test for full-Consciousness BTW)

"Juggling two contradictory ideas at the same time"
- so I guess such a class wouldn't come cheap.. (especially if they don't dare let the specimen go, afterwards ;-)

PS - 'disgusting' - that word comes to mind in most of these stories. Dumbth combined with Pride is .. umm unspeakable.
