I can't imagine Tom Cruise as the norm in any situation.
Cordelia: I get it now. You're all spies. Probably all Russian. And you've brainwashed me, and want me to believe we're friends so I'll spill the beans about some nano-technology thingy that you want. Gunn: So I look Russian to you? Cordelia: Black Russian. Angel: That's a drink.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Trudy, if you reread my post, you'll see I didn't call you naive. I wasn't referring to you as a person, but your opinion on this one matter.
While rereading my post you'll also note I didn't call setups of the paparazzis rare.
Uh huh. They're not the patsies in this little game.
I have no idea what that means.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I don't think you're generally naive either, but on this you seem to be.
The "uh huh" is that I agree. The paparazzi aren't patsies. The public are.

Fair enough. But I never called you names, and I want that to be clear. You went there, not me.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
ita, I kind of took it the way Trudy did. Not arguing what you meant, but how it read to me.

I really thought you had and intended to respond in kind.
So, you know, if you didn't I didn't either. SInce I was trying to be in-kind.
Alright, my Grandmother might be dying. I need to just stop this conversationn ow.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
I mean, feeling of my own modern life? Can I pass that up?
Er, well, if it's anything like the Chinese "champagne" I had in China, I'd say pass. Unless, that is, you have a taste for Dimetapp.

That interests me. Because I described a stance--why does that look like I'm branding the person? How would one better phrase that without over-defending and losing the point?
I'm sorry to hear about your grandmother, Trudy.

That's hard, Trudy, I'm sorry.
