professional bad example

i think i'm going to obsess over the dirk gently books for a bit. yeah, they still confuse me, but if you can accept you're not going to make sense of them and just give up on that, they're really quite enjoyable. that and i'm strangely fascinated by the sort of characters who can and do go on about things only they really understand in a way that makes them seem completely nuts to others and yet at the same time somehow manage to make these same others both believe in and and do what they say. i might even look up to them. i wonder what that says about me.
